need. 1t is. the wish and hope of the
officers of the chapter that every par
of the county be represented at this
meeting. The directors are especiail!

CHANGE OF BUSINESS

Chas. H. Stocking has leased his
laundry business and building to the
present foreman, J. B. Campbell, who
will take full charge Of the same next
Monday morning. when the deal will
be closed. The business has always
been a good proposition but since the
advent of Mr.. and Mrs. Campbell
in Audubon the business has mater
tally advanced, owing to the splen-
did class OF laundry work done by
both. They have had experience In
larger places and are very cOmpe-
tent. Laundry sent away to be done
should be given to the home industry
where 1t will be done up as good II
not much better than elsewhere. The
new management is entitled to all
the home work and 1t is our wish that
they succeed in receiving it.
