We wound up our visit with the
postoffice and found Postmaster
Van Slower, q middle.aged
gentleman, but very courteous.
In conversing with him we
learned that he has been serving
the people of that city in the ca.
pacity as postmaster for the past
six years, and we have no doubt
that he will continue to serve
them another like term. If we
are any Judge of a gentleman, it
seems to US that they have very
able person. Before leaving he
handed US the change to enter
his name on the Herald list, say.
ing that he liked our paper, and
should he know of any news he
would be glad to pass it on to his
friends.
There were several persons
from Hayti in that little city, and
on every term we heard q remark
that was nothing but favorable to
them.
May the relations between our
little neighbor on the west and
this city be one of good feelings,
of profit to each other, and one
of mutual benefit.

TOWN OF PASCOLA,
mo. o.

MOs
A reporter for The Hsyti Her.
aid was in our neighboring little
city, Pascola, Monday and made
notes of some of the incidents.
It must be remembered that
this little city is chieay'supported
from the activities of the Pascola
Stave Company, which we under.
stands works all the year round,
employing some one hundred to
two hundred men, and every one
of them receiving good wages.
This company has one of the
best equipped plants in this part
of the country, having its own
tracts of timber and shipping in
from different parts Of the coun.
try. Pascola being located as it
is can easily be reached by rail.
road, rates being very cheap.
At the Frisco station we found
the agent q very accommodating
and courteous gentleman, was
very busy, attending strictly
to the business of the com.
pany.
Upon alighting from the train
we noticed the nice, board walks
running from one end of the
town to the other, high and dry,
alongside of which we noticed a
continuous wood culvert that no
doubt carries of all water that
would likely make that little city's
streets in bad condition. On the
streets we saw several men with
teams and scrapers doing street
work, and the city board can be
congratulated for the manner in
which they handle that city's
finances.
We visited the general store of
M. G. Manuel & Co., and found
that store alive with good, staple
merchandise. The proprietor,
M. G. Manuel informed US that
he was enjoying a good trade,
and that he was expecting good
business this year.
Following this visit We went
into The Pascola Supply Store,
the largest and perhaps, carry
ing the biggest stock of general
merchandise, from dry goods,
shoes. boots, drugs down to a
dress pin. The proprietor, Reu.
ben Belts. and his able corps of
assistants were busy waiting on
the trade. While there we formed
the acquaintance of several of the
most prominent men OF that little
city. Gail Day, the accomdating
clerk gave Us the glad hand and
offered to assist this paper in any
effort, and to back his statement,
handed US q dollar and q half to
pay for the subscription of bis
sister, Miss Grace Day, who is
principal of that city's schools.
In fact the air of the store EN-.
ployees was one of pleasantness
throughout our visit. ..
Upon our visit across the street
we found the thirst parlor of l.
B. Bales. and had the good fort
une of running upon a friend OF
ours from this city. They too,
gave US q hand of welcome.
We further wended our way tc
the restaurant of G. F. Louie and
found him q very courteous and
attentive gentleman, ready tc
wait on his customers at q
moment notice. he invited US to
a little chat and before the wind.
up he had enrolled his name ON
the Herald list of subscribers
After passing from this place We
had the pleasure of meeting
Squire Chas. L. Bryson, who also
ordered US to place his name on
our list.
