young man in this community has
been assigned portion OF this stock

taxpayers and mining companies are
rouned up that there will be other
apportionments to take MP any res
idue remaining unsold.

Legion boys took hold OF the stock

mpanies come across as well as the
Legion boys do there Is little quest.
ion OF the success OF the project

none 10 the fair sex. TheCrystal Falls
women are very loyal. however. and
