Henry-Light.

Z The marriage of Mr.. Harold Hen
ry and Miss Addie Tom Light, which
took place at 0bion last Sunday, was
a quiet affair which was expected
to be kept quiet for while, but for
the usual failure of knowing parties
to keep secret.
Mr.. Henry is publisher of the
Herald-Democrat at Trenton and
Mrs. Henry has been engaged in
teaching school. They are both we'll

new REFRIGERATOR
MODEL EQUIPMENT
New Service Standards for E. p.
Gr1ssom Grocery Store.

|
Mr.. Grissom has installed in his
grocery store model new refrigera-
tor, the highest achievement, the last
word in equipment. made for the
purpose of keeping and displaying
fresh meats, vegetables, butter, etc.
This floor case or cabinet is some
thing like sixteen feet in length with
| ice boxes at each end covered in por-
celain and hardwood, the middle sec
ton of heavy plate glass and hard
wood where the foods are placed, and
cooled to a temperature of 80 de-
grees, evenly distributed. One of the
most important features of this re-
frigerator is the fact that no one of
the food products in the case is af-
fected by the other. No one takes
from the other any of it's native ele-
ments and therefore while in the re-
frigerator retains all of its own prop
critics and tastes unchanged This
is indeed a wonderful Improvement
over the old system. The entire cab
met is elaborate in construction,
highly finished and handsome addi-
tion to the store. Mr.. GrisGom's
model meat cutter is another fine in
vention, which he is using in pairing
meats, and the two make fine COM
bination. Mr.. Grissom will be glad
to have you visit the store and see
these improvements.

invade private homes, terrorize the
residents, and possibly aid the muir

shah do about the case.
Detectives say they still believe
they can solve the mystery IL they
