COUNTY METROPOLIS

McCrory is taking on quite
a metropolitan look of late
and the fellow who is away

town when he returns.
Electric lights are being
placed at the street crossings,
the old trees are being re-
moved from in front of the
brick store buildings and Ed
munds Avenue. the main
thoroughfare in now being
given its first coat of gravel.
The people last Tuesday
also voted to put up the town
cow and several are already
planning to improve their
lawns as soon as the city
officials pass a stock law
which will be done next
month.
The school board has pur-
chased all of the Petit prop
erty north of the school house
for 100000 and are plan
ming great things for our
school which will advance it
far ahead of any institution of
it's kind in Woodruff County.
Tell the stranger in our
town about our resources and
advantages and help to in
crease the number of home
seekers who continue to come
to our town.
