Wednesday by S. L. McMuliln on the

will be a frame finished up in good

contracted for one year by Claud
Lewis and O. L. Williams of C'am-
chestcr, Kansas, who will move their
store from that place to Manchester
as soon as the building is ready for
them, which will be within two or
three weeks. Tho Journal is not
only glad to see new buildings and
new stores in Manchester, but It is
especially glad to welcome to this
town those of oar neighbors at Cam-
cbester who stand so high in business
circles as do Claud Lewis and C. L.
Williams. Manchester, It is true, is
growing rapidly and Is read and
talked about lu all directions,but the
fact still remains that we cannot pul
too much force behind it, and In
Claud Lewis aDd C. L. Williams we
recognize two men who cau and no
doubt will do much for the business
interests and general advancement
of our town. There are other busi-
ness men in Camchester who have an
eye in this direction and we wish to

—Pouth Addition.—The day has
arrived for a greater Manchester and
to accommodate the demand for resi-
dence locations J. W. Smith and S.L
McMuliln have purchased of E. L.
Morgau the west i of the southwest
quarter of 14-29-8, adjoining tbe
original townslto on tbe south, and
have had about 40 acres of it surveyed
and platted as the south addition to
Manchester. Several parties have
already spoken for lots In the new
addition and within a short time we
may look fur several bouses to show
up iu that directioo. Tbe land Is
well located, being close to tbe
business part of town and lays grad-
ually sloping to the south, thus
affording excellent drainage.
Another feature Is the prospect of
obtaining well water at shallow
depths all over the new addition
The day for Manchester to grow and
beep growing has come and tbe man
who Invests in real estate here need
have no fears of making a mistake.
Manchester will make a town of at
least 1000 inhabitants.
— People hereabout .lost all recol-
lect ioo of the frying they got in July
and August and thought a smell
of that weather tolerably good during
the past few day*. An overcoat has
been au inviting looking article and
a number hare been wearing them.
— Wc sometimes give you more for
your money than you expect—never
less. Bee Hive.
