the building Of railroads has bene-

what a great railroad means to China.

back the price.
The development Of resources in
China will let her pay back in time

when China is developing. the work in
these railroads and in the big steel

some library table and a bouquet of
beautiful flowers. They were so com

a very fitting response, expressing
their great appreciation and he stat
ed that he looked forward to seeing
many others cooperate with him and
build at Wilbur by-the-Sea, and
become his neighbors.
A most amusing feature was when
Mrs. G. A. Davis presented Mr.. and
