Couple Is Bid
It seetns that a former Still-
water couple could at least get
back "home" once in 15 years
It was that long ago that Mr
and Mrs Leslie Cotton left this
city for Santa Barbara Calif and
during that time they haven't
missed an issue of the Stillwater
Weekly Gazette
This story is to Inform them
that the streets of Stillwater are
still covered with bricks
In correspondence with friends
here the Cottons and some of
their California friends have re-
ported some stiff arguments as to
what is the surface of the Still-
water streets Some thought they
were now asphalt while others
knew they were still bricks
Also of interest to the Cottons
might be the recent addition into
the city of Dryden and Burdick
additions and the Berry addition
all east of town Mrs Cotton's
mother owns property near the
new additions
In spite of the faithful reading
of home town news in the Gaz-
ette it might be worth the Cot-
ton's time to come back home
once in a while
