Mr.. and Mrs. H. F. Whitney have

Mr.. and Mrs. Whitney for getting away
! from Iowa winters. If we could scare
up enough loose change these days we
might be tempted TO follow them to
a warmer climate. 1t is about an even
break between the railroads and the
| coal barons as 20 which can get the
most of the peoples money these days.
