Keeping Up to Date.

The Plezol Confectionery has just
completed the installation of thoro-
ughly up to date soda fount and fix.
lures. This great improvement, which
represents an expenditure of approx
mately 100000, shows the confidence
of the proprietor, Mr.. A. ]. Benoit, in
the home town, ard it is also matter
of deep pride to the people of the
community.
The business institutions of this
community are the things that are
favorably advertising the community
and in as much as the confectionery
and restaurants are the first places
strangers visit when they land here
in many cases the only places they
visit, 1t is from them that they gain
the first impression of the community
We all know that first impressions are
lasting.
The confectionery and restaurants
of Welsh are appreciated by visitors
coming here. We know this because
We frequently hear them comment on
their neatness and the excellent SER
vice and cordially they find in them.
They frequently state that they wish
their town was so fortunate.
We do not notice these things so
readily because we are accustomed to
them. Like the man with a million
dollars--he's doesn't notice that he is
different from the ordinary, because
he has become accustomed to wealth.
Referring back to the Plezol, Mr..
Benoit is entitled to much credit for
his pr0gressiveness. He is home boy
who believes in the home town, its
present and its future. He began bust
ness here in small way, with the
usual handicaps to which the average
boy succumbs. He is successful be-
cause he attends to business and is
not afraid to invest in any improve
ment that will add to the attractive
ness of his institution. He knows the
community Is going to expand and is
not afraid to anticipate the future.
