CAN SEE A CHANGE IN CITY.
George Taylor of Kansas City Was in
 Mena Twenty Years Ago.

Twenty years ago George W. Tay- Tor of Kansas City came to Mena on business. Sunday he came back again, and he found an entirely diff ferent place.
 On the occasion of his earlier visit Mir. Taylor describes Mena as city of tents. It was the time when the railroad was in it's initial construction work. Oil lamps then Illuminated the streets and there were no real streets Fords were unknown and OK teams were plentiful Now the Kansas City man finds Mena to be a live, up-to- date city and he likes it well enough to stick around awhile and enjoy some of it's advantages. Incidentally he's looking after the purchase of some walnut timber which Uncle Sam wants to convert into gunstocks.
