For Friday Night. June z


Match Maker Jim Locke will pre-
sent some 36 rounds of boxing to
Morgan county fight fans, Friday
evening, June z, at the Chautauqua

which Smith accepted.
Let's all turn out to back Smithy.
All that can be said now is that if

the price of admission, let alone
the rest Of the bouts which will fea-
ture some familiar faces as we'll as

1t seems to us if there is such a

The quaint and historic old city
of Marietta is contemplating hold

settlement made there, April Z,

body of men will throw in a mon
key wrench or do anything to
thwart the plan. 1t was our good
fortune to attend their centennial
nearly so years ago-in fact they
held two, one in April and another
in July. This time we hope that

more than anything else, is a good
five cent cigar. We're not so much
interested in the cigar, but if any
one should happen to find one in
the market we wish that they would
let us know about it. Then there
might be some hopes of getting
good 10 cent sock.
The parents of the Dionne quin-
