knives?"
"No, the only thing I’ll take for
one of those knives is your two

mistake. A few days later the boys
were back. One displayed a wide
gap in his mouth and two front

though costs are down about 10
percent, Shawnee home building is
slightly less than last year, City
Inspector Loyd Smith said Monday.

about the same as last year but
lumber and other building materials
have come down, he said.
There were 93 residential units
built in Shawnee from July 1948

the previous year.

built in Shawnee since the war
have been financed on GI loans.
