portant change in business man.

came one Of the prosperous and
large business firms Of the city.
They later purchased the excellent
garage building, erected by the
Otto Bros, some years ago.
Mr.. Carpenter has not announced
his plans for the future, but re-
vealed that he had definite ideas
as to the business which he plan
ned to conduct. He left on Friday
for Los Angeles, CAL, to look over
a business possibility, however, has
not divulged as to whether he in

Mr.. Carpenter was accompanied
on the motor trip to the West by
his son, Orville, and H. s. HaHer-
son and Oscar Holmberg. They in
tend to remain for about three
weeks before returning to Sank

Mr.. Carpenter has many friends
