We find it necessary to do a
strictly; cash business, it has been
our custom to credit everybody,
and w^dislike very much to make
tliif change, but conditions are
sucb that if we continue in busi
ness we must cut out the credit,
and do a strictly cash business, so
please do not ask for credit, it
will be unpleasant for you to be
refused, and it will be unpleaaant
for ns to refuse you.
We are thanklul to the people
of this community for their liber
al patronage and regret the neces-
ity for making tbia change. We
expeot to give yon the best hard
time cash prices that it is possible
to give. To those who are indebt-
ed to us we ask that as we have
accomodated you in the past you
now help us by settling your ac-
counts in some way, we need the
money in our. business. A dis-
count of five per cent will be al-
lowed on accounts paid by the
twenty second of June.
Yours truly,
J. S- McMurtry.

rector, Johnson being elected for
a term of three years. Rufus
Cook waa elected clerk for a term
of two years and W, A- Waters
waa elected ns treasurer for one
year.
By hard work the meeting was
allowed to express themselves as
to the term and previous contracts
made by the Maramec school
board. The majority of the new
board seemed to think they could
handle anything thnt came up
without any suggestions from the
meeting.
An estimate for the coming year
was made sometime during tbe
day by the board and we happened
to notice a oopy taoked up on a
building, instead of publishing it'
iu tbe paper as waa the usual cus-
tom in such cases—But of course
the newapaper man don't pay any
taxes and has no right to objeot.

pises and olean up nil the old junk
