not sound natural, However 1t is quite all right
since it is still Coulsons store, in our midst with all
the prestige and goodwill that firm has acquired
through successful merchandising for &c years.
The, business established in Malta by the late
A. A. Coulson who made it marked success. The
writer often heard the remark from statesmen calling
Mr.. Couson that had he cast his lot in big city,
that he would have been another Marshall Field Or
a John Wanamaker Since his death his son, Fred

and has been there since, has been carrying on
in the same capable did his father.
Now in new location that the business will con-
tinue hold its high position, goes without the say

none to be found with better merchandise or are
attractive, and its arrangements, fixtures light

This paper extends congratulations and best wish

SAVE OLD LICENSE PLATEES

All oil companies, large and
small, in Ohio are cooperating with
the Bureau of Motor Vehicles for
the purpose of gathering up all old
license plates which will be remov-
ed from present automobiles on or
before March 31st and replaced by
1912 plates, reports j. L. Marsh,
executive Secretary, Petroleum In
dustry Committee of Ohio.
! Most all filing stations will offer
to change license plates for the car
owners free Of charge, and in re-
turn will request the car owners to
leave their old license plates at the
filling stations. After the shift to
1912 plates has been completed the
old license plates gathered by the
filling stations in each county will
be offered to the Ked Cross for
sale in order to be of as much help
as possible in financing Red Cross
work with the army. In this man
nor several thousand tons of metal
will be made available over the
state for immediate use by the
steel mills for scrap.
1t is felt that many owners have
license plates at home for several
years back and would gladly gather
these up and deposit them at the
filing stations along with their
1941 plates at the time they change
to the 1912 plates.
Deputy registrars in all of the
counties will help in securing the
cooperation of car owners in this
undertaking.

Those who continually fault the president of the
United States should remember that the majority of
the people elected him, and under the constitution
he will be leader until 1945, and this war will
be won or lost before then It should be kept in
mind that he is commander-n-c chief, and contin
ualy attacking his actions, assang his policies,
etc, hinder rather than help win the In our
America accustomed to criticzing openly
those in authority, high low-any person who
holds office expects it; but in Germany the German
government radio plays personal attacks on the
president which all goes to help muster up the
morale of the German Italian and Japanese people.
