Your correspondent takes pleasure
in calling attention to the improve

treatment has bright future. The
town is not what it was one year ago.
Since that time new garage with
apartments and halls has been COM

output about ten cars per week; a
new and modern mill has been in
stalled; the finest Methodist Episcopal
church building in the county has
been dedicated; new porch at the NJ

structure itself has been repainted
inside and outside, and many other
homes have been beautifed by the ap-
plication of paint and otherwise re-
paired; A. E. Fox has refinished his
home inside and outside, making it a
cozy little dwelling; three new modern
homes are now under construction,
these being the properties of George
