SHOE ROOM

Special rates on pre-Easter hair
cuts must have been in force in
town. AL Mitchell and Dave Allen
both have them.
Funny how hair cuts effect auto
mobiles. Dave Allen seems to have
lost track of his car on Saturday
altogether. While AL Mitchell left
his in Woodsville, minus rear end.
Out in Woodsville CAP it rained
snow balls.
"Slim" Stout, the author of the
famous "Tennis Sayings" left il
favor of fishing. The fishing in
dustry is getting a great reporter.
Jack Goodell had hard luck Sat
urday night He left his car some
where in New Hope Saturday after
noon and went to Philadelphia. On
his return he was "pinched" and
fined $500 for leaving his car park
ed without lights. They seem to in
sist on the bright lights in New
Hope.
The Reed family, or particularly,
"Amos" and "Rummy", have a good
money making combination. Not
contented with having spent $500
on his Ford, Godell bet "Rummy"
a dollar and was going to prove it
by Amos. Perhaps the Reed family
will split and come in with new
hair cuts before the week is over.

under the capable guidance of Mr..
W. E. Crowley, our factory super
initendent.
Mr.. w. G. Murray, the general
Company of San Francisco, Cal,
came in to see the source of supply
Of his rubber stopples. He was ac-
companied by two of his statesmen
and was very much disappointed to
learn that this company had dis
continued the manufacture of such
supplies. 1t was his first trip through
rubber plant and he was very
much interested in our process.

"The natives have trained them as

BILLBOARDS BANNED
IN MINNESOTA
Beautiful Highways Campaign Re
moves Half Millinn Signs.

Beautiful Highways Campaign Re-
moves Half Million Signs.
The highways in Minnesota are to
be advertisingless and unmarried by
billboards. Authorities in Dane Coun-
ty, which has ordered all signs down
by May 1, phrase the keynote of the
Statewide campaign thus:
Unrestricted outdoor advertising,
as it is developing and spreading
along our highways IS not only Of
fensive but in many cases a menace
TO the safety of the public and mar
10 the beauty of our community"
The State Highway Department
has removed more than half mil
lion signs from Minnesota highways,
in campaign in which newspapers,
railroads, housewives and civic or
carnations have united. A State
Jaw provides for a 66-foot right of
way unmarried by signs, applying
to the even-thousand-mile State
road system.
The Chicago, Milwaukee and st.
Paul Railway Company announces it
will revoke all permits for billboards
along the road right of way encirc-
ling Lake Calhoun, one of Mime
apoli5' beauty spots.
Housewives of Crystal Bay, Lake
Minnetonka, near Minneapolis, have
voted to boycott all articles adver-
tised on billboards in their vicinity.
According to the Minneapolis
Journal at is to be hoped that these
examples will lead to further orders
restoring scenic beauties now ruin
ed by roadside boardings. Owners
of vacant property along the main
travelled roads may well cooperate
in banning the billboards to which
they have given asylum at small
rentals. They have thus become ac-
completes in the garish crimes
against the eye that are so freely
committed in city and country"

Miss Jane Theresa Harley has
Just returned from the national
capitol where she has been stopping
for the last few days with a former
New Hope lady. We hasten to add
that her journey had no connection
with the current Senate investiga-
ton. 1t is true she has had friend
ly relations with number of
Smiths. Most of these relations have
been most congenial, and for the
most part they have similar political
convictions.
miss Harley's most cherished
hobby is 3-legged cats-she is the

Books thru the country offered

be Bibles and school books. They

may want to exchange theirs for
the latest and newest editions in
