Some of our business men are making a move in the direction of getting an up town express office. This ia one thing this good old town needs, and everyone who has any dealings with the express companies should lend their every effort in securing this office. We had an up town express office some years ago and there is no excuse for not having one at the present time. The way the express business is now conducted is a great inconvenience to the general public. Sometimes they will call and get your express when you ask them, and sometimes it will be left over until the next day, and in delivering a package more than a block from Main street you are charged 15 to 25 cents for delivery, and it ia a fact that packages of express have been held more than a week at one of the offices on the east side, and inquiries -were made by the owner each day of that week.

Let us have an office up town where it will be appreciated by the people. Death of Mrs. Jennie Radar, Mrs. Jennie Rader died at the home of her nephew, A. Osborne, Wednesday, February 15, and was buried today at 12 o'clock, Rev.
