day morning for Rochester, Mimi,
where she will have a position as

Enright has been in the employ OF
the firm of Hall, Alexander & Purdy
for several years, and is one OF the
most efficient and competent young
business women that the city has de-
veloped. Her taking a new position
away from home is in the nature OF
a promotion as she has outgrown the
salary limits of our community. Her
friends in Brookings county wish her
success in her new venture.
p. J.. Erie, for q long number OF
years an employe of the p%ostofice and
well remembered by all those who
have business at the money order
window, has resigned from govern
ment service and this morning start
ed to work for the Farmers Cooper
alive company. This company has
been badly in need of additional help
and in securing Mr.. Erie, they feel
that they have obtained the service OF
a man who will greatly assist them in
giving the best kind of attention to
the needs of their patrons. The po
sition made vacant by the resigna
ton of Mr.. Erie will probably be filled
by promotion of one of the present
force.
