4 NEW BUSINESS
 FIRM IN PRESCOTT

The latest addition to the business interests of the city is the Hit Dry Goods Company of which Grover c. Hit is manager. The new firm is located in the building formerly oc- cupied by Joe Boswell, clothier. The interior of the building will be remod- |eled, including the building of roomy office. The new firm, an official an- nouncement of which appeared in last weeks Nevada News and Daily News, will carry an up-to-the-minute stock of ladies' and misses furnishings, both ready-to-wear and piece goods. The business will be operated on a strictly cash basis, according to their announcement The personnel of the store force is Grover c. Hit, Mrs. Frances Hesterly and J. D. Cantley.
 Joe Boswell, clothier, is today nov ing into his new quarters next door to the above firm, on the corner of East Elm and Front Streets, the en- tire building being under course of remodeiing. A solid plate glass front is being installed, concrete walk is being laid on the front and side of the building, the interior overhauled, and re-worked, new and modern shelv- ing installed and new fixtures includ- ing mahoeony clothing cabinets will be installed. Mr. Boswell win oper- ate one of the finest and most com plete men and boys stores in south Arkansas and. will carry large and complete stock of Hart, Schaffner 6 Marx clothing the year around.
 Mir. Boswell is one of the foremost business men of the entire state and has for the past few years carried one fthe largest stocks of dry goods in the city. Any city can vel! feel fortunate in numbering among it's business men such successful mer- chant as MI. Boswell, for it is on such far-sighted busisless principals as his that a town or business expand. The peronne1 Of the store is, Jce Boswell. owner and man age~, Wm. Reeves and
