Bankers are expecting to receive
! Information within n few days about
the third liberty loan issue. Plans,
It is said have not fully matured. but
Il is believed that the Issue will be
placed more pronouncedly before the
smaller buyer. The limit for any one
purchaser, it is thought. will be piac-
ed low enough to give every person
with a few dollars Mt his command The
| opportunity of getting In on This loan
the object of which, 1t In said Is to
give tho most humble investor the
/ privilege OF lending TO his country.
/ letter Jones, OF the savings depart
ment of the Merchants, yesterday ex-
pressed great sympathy and much
sorrow for the street cleaning men
who flooded Main street Saturday
night. and made the roadway az clean
as 3 floor, and then awoke Monday
m orning TO find the street again fiji
ed with the beautiful"
THE men worked like Trojans." re-
marked Mr.. Jones. 81 paused to
watch and admire them, and went
home feeling that I. would hate no
trouble in crossing over from the
post Office to my coy corner in the
bank But alas, and alack!"
| Captain Leroy Brown is not letting
any grass grow under his feet, even
though the hyways and the highways
OF the countryside are covered with
STOW
II am negotiating for some big
businees In nearby SUBURBAN land, he
said yesterday, land nv the time the
snow melts away and the buttercupA
begin to sprout, you may hear OF a
nice little deal being pulled off Real
estate il not so bad off as II SCENE
at this season. People who hev sur
Plus money are putting 1t into the
ground. and Il they take my advice
they VIII continue to do so"

Folks along Main street are pre-
pairing for the advent OF Charlie
Wcstbury. who comes to resume his
old place as district agent for the
Southern. His many summers and
winters spent between Richmond and
! West Point ende him to this com
rnunity. and when ne again mingles
IN our midst, as BILLY Camp. of tho
Am ericsn. would say. he will be Given
the old-time glad hand.
