C. T. Wilson of Amielly was hero Monday mixing mud and dust on the county roads. "Couri" is a good Joe M. Steinkirchner is giving the progress of Newton improvements a nice boost.

He has let the contract for new modern fronts in two business buildings to Ernest Reikowsky, and the work, of tearing out the old fronts was started Monday morning. These buildings are those at 415 and 417 Main. The south room is divided, the south portion being occupied by Bert Shiff let's barber shop and the north part by Cleve Henry's electrically equipped shoe shop. These hustling boys have helped Mr. Steinkirchner out by consenting to a reasonable raise in their rentals.

The building at 417 is at present vacant. Steinkirchner wants a good permanent tennant and will arrange the front to suit. This will make four new fronts in a row, the work on the Newtonian cafe building now being pretty well along. The south room of the Newtonian's location is owned by Everett McCann, Claude Conkey and Francis Dunkelberger and the north room by Mrs. Anna Zurcher.

This string of new modern fronts makes that plock desirable and attractive. There is a strong probability that one or two other buildings farther north in the block will fall irt line and be modernized right away. This will leave the old Harvey stone' building on the extreme south end of the block the only obsolete and unsightly building opposite the new Santa Fe station. There is a rumor that the Santa Fe has plans for remodeling this building, not only to improve the sur-roundingSj but for the: convenience and efficiency of the Harvey store house. Mr.

Steinkirchner is sparing no expense on his improvements. Going over his plans in a general way with a reporter he pointed out where he could save money on tiling, prism glass, eliminating stone sills and trimming and the like, but this he will not do. He is doing a good piece of improvement work and deserves commendation for his enterprise and civic interest.

Weston, who drives a meat wagon for the Fretl Dole Packing Company had the misfortune about nine thirty Friday evening of colliding with a niule and horse who were straying down the road a mile and a half west of Elbing and killing the mule at once and injuring the horse so badly that it died in about twenty minutes.
