risburg leading Eye Specialist

3 and 4. Will examine your eyes
free. No drops used. Gold Fill
ed glasses guaranteed, as low as

Bruce Stoner erected a neat
sign last week for Druggist Sey
lar. Mrs. George Morton and Miss
Murnie Rummel were shopping
in Chambersburg last Friday.
Attention is called to the
changes in the time table of the
Western Maryland Railway in
this issue.
The very best "mixer" in our
town is Ralph Reed's concrete
machine. Its company is great
ly in demand.
The powder works at Mt. Un
ion experienced its first serious
accident last week when an ex
plosion killed six men.
Wonder who got it "in the
neck" this week for killing game
out of season. "Little Birds"
seem to have a fashion of telling
tales out of school.
It 13 hoped that there will be
no more beastly slaughter of fe
male deer and fawn3 this fall be
fore or after the season opens, as
there was last fall.
Nick Roettger, who is employ
ed in Chambersburg, spent the
week-end with his family in this
place. He was accompanied by
Mr. Edwards, a friend from Rich
mond, Va.
Roy Deshong in his auto,
brought John Calvin Horton and
H. L. Wishart-all of Wells Val
ley, to McConnellsburg last Fri
day to attend a Democratic com
mittee, meeting.
With loaded shells so much
higher in price than in former
years, hunters should try to make
every shot count this fall. But
who ever thinks of cost as long
as game is in sight?
A hot air heating plant placed
in the Fulton House will replace
stoves throughout the building.
This of course, is modern. But
many patrons enjoyed the cozy
wood fires in their room3.
. Real Estate Agent D. H. Pat
terson, of Webster Mills, on
Monday sold the C. Murray Ray
farm in Ayr township to Hoyt
Glenn for $5,650.00. Possession
given the first of r.ext April.
HIDES. Frank B. Sipes
pays the highest market price
for beef hides at their butchoi
bop in McConnellsburg, als'
highest price paid for calf skir.i
iheepskins and tallow.

Mrs. Clarence Gobin and chil
dren Charles and Katharine, and
Miss Etta Snyder, all of Knobs
ville, were among the busy shop
pers in town last Friday, and
they did not forget to call at this
office.
This is the glad time of year
when we may see and measure
the fruits of our summer labors.
Even the wild things of the
woods and fields seem to rejoice
and revel in the abundance of
food and comforts.
Mrs. Welles II. Greathead and
the twin son and daughter came
home from the Chambersburg
Hospital last Saturday. The lit
tle strangers are named respect
ively Wellesley Hux, Jr., and
Edna Virginia. Mother and chil
dren are enjoying good health.
A petition to Town Council was
circulated this week requesting
the abatement of certain auto
mobile nuisances, namely, that
speed be limited to 15 miles an
hour, cutouts be kept closed, and
lights be dimmed, and that en
gine testing be prohibited outside
of the garages, i
