Heaviest Snow
Closes Schools
Over County

Licking County's heaviest
snowfall of the season brought
surcease from school to almost
half the pupils in the county and
township schools on Wednesday,
this week. Drivers of school
buses surrendered to the six
inch blanket and made no at
tempts to negotiate it in the in
terest of safety.
Among those classes affected
were: Thorne township school at
Thornville, Hanover, Toboso,
Summit Station and Granville
township schools. Pupils from
Franklin, Newton, Madison and
Newark townships, however ar
rived in Newark in time for reg
ular work. The Mary Ann bus,
while late, was able to make the
trip.
County Engineer George Hersh-
berger said Wednesday that a
great many of the county roads
were completely closed, but that
efforts were going forward to
have them open by Thursday.

and John M. Caren.
The business was operated un-
der the name of Carroll and Co.
in the same location until the
following spring when it moved
to West Park Place, the site of
the present Sparta confectionery.
In 1900 John J. Carroll pur-
chased the interests of his part
ners and operated it under the
name, John J. Carroll Store. Fol-
lowing the failure of the Pow
ers-Miller Co. Mr.. Carroll pur-
chased this stock and moved the
business into the building next
to the Newark Trust Co. 1t re-
mained there until 1919.
Mr.. Carroll always felt that it
was not necessary to be situated
on the square in order to do bus
mess. Subsequently he purchas-
ed the o. G. King home site and
thereon built the modern three
story structure still operating
on North Third street.
Growth of the concern, Mr..
Davidson feels, is due largely to
a strict adherence to policies out
lined and executed by Mr.. Car
roll at the time the enterprise
began. Among them are: mer-
chandise sold at honest value,
true advertising and salesman
ship, one price, and that the
lowest; and the complete salts
faction of customers guaranteed.
From the small beginning 81
years ago, when the store en-
ployed a few persons up to the
present time when 81 people
make up the large smooth run

the aggregate payrolls every
year amounting to $87,0OO.0O,
the growth has been marked by
a spirit of friendliness. Buyers

have been privileged to serve,

what Carroll's has done has been
an accomplishment of no mean
significance, we are offering the
