town have consented and are prepar
= ing to remove the unsightly and an
: tiquated sheds from in front of tn
{ business places. And we are in
formed that some of them will com
pletely remodel their store fronts ii
the early spring. These unsightl,
. sheds were considered necessary il
years past but today they are no
needed and only serve to completed,
hide the fronts and darken the in
terror OF the stores. Their passing
will be a step in the direction o.
improvement.
EyesOres
The Milton station of the Penn.
sylvania Railroad is disgrace to the
community and woeful commentary
on the low estate to which railroads
have fallen in recent years. For some
unknown reason Town Council has
taken no action regards the removal
OF the eyesore on South Federal
street, known as "Lakeview Hotel
Failure to condemn this menace to
the community and bad fire hazard
to the neighborhood. It is a contin-
ual distress to those in that locality
who maintain their properties and
pay taxes.
G. of e. In New Quarters
Since the fire on December 22nd,
which destroyed the club room of
the fire company. the Chamber of

Enlarging Plant
Workmen are engaged in the con-
struction of an addition to the Rich
ards & Tyndall Pearl Button plant,
located near the railroad station,
doubling its capacity. These young
men. only few months ago, began
the cutting of button blanks, employ
ing several men. BY rigid applica-
ton to business and quality work,
they now find it necessary to enlarge
their plant in order to supply the
demand for their product.
