MAKING IMPROVEMENTS

curtis q Son are among the
progressive set of people of our
growing little city that are max
ing new improvements in their
places of business. This week
the writer had occasion to visit
this store and we noticed that
the firm had been making several
new changes in the building to
accommodate their growing busi-
ness. They have moved their
grocery department to the west
end of the building; moved the
shoe line to the south side and
were busy with the wrecking
bar tearing out that old partition
in the center of the house. In
our mind this is a wonderful
piece of work.
