TO RAE STAIRS
TROD BY THOUSANDS
OF PENSIONERS

After having been in use for
around half a century and having
been trod by thousands and thous-
ands OF feet, the old stairway on the
north side OF the Chernowsky block
at the corner OF Bridge and Water
streets Will soon be a thing OF the
past.
The removal of this outside flight
OF stairs was decided upon Friday at
a conference between Hyman Cher
nowsky, owner OF the buildings, and
Mayor Mclean. 1t is another step
toward making the business section
OF Augusta more attractive.
These stairs provide the only
means Of reaching the third floor OF
the building. Years and years ago,
when the pension office was located
there, Civil' war veterans climbed
them again and again. All those
who have had Offices On the third
floor and those who have had to visit
there on business have used the
stairs. The thousands Of feet that
have trod them have worn the
threads until they are much thinner
than in the days OF long ago.
Just where the new third floor
entrance will be placed. Mr.. Cher
nowsky has not decided, but 1t Will
be ready in ample season for the
occupants Of the third floor and Will
be completed before the outside
stairs pass out of Augustus sight.

- CPagheth~ ,,on
s as a summer FOOD
|S1 By -1Nzz<&@
Ossd AAlh0,fy on a

EOR SOME reason which has new
l. er been very clearly defined,
spaghetti has always been regard
ed as a winter food. People who
eat it regularly in cold weather,
seem by common consent TO omit it
from their summer foods, or to
serve it only on an occasional
Friday.
This is an especially peculiar
habit when it is considered that
bread, crackers, cereals, ETC., are
eaten as freely perhaps more
freely-in the summer as at any
other time of the year. Spaghetti
is purely a wheat product, higher
in food value than bread and meat,
and it would seem as if its quality
and characteristics would have long
ago caused it to be a popular and
highly regarded hot weather food.
For building up young bodies, for
giving strength and vigor to the
whole family, they have no equal.
No other food so thoroughly
takes the place Of potatoes, being
more substantial, more healthy
and nourishing.
Macaroni and Egg Noodles are
an every day food. Try them as a
change from potatoes. They are
"Quick TO get ready" Takes but
10 or IL minutes to cook. No
trouble; no waste like in peeling
potatoes.
