Tbe borne of Carter Family bakery bias been rgiven a fresb look, tbe work on tbe A & P and Cbartran's bias been completed. Sand-blasters or building cleaners mnade a trial run on the Bank of Montreal building and made a big impravement whieh probablv will persuade the bank ta com- plote the entire front. BillEs billiard parlor across from the badminton club bias also had its front repainted and we are informcd that Fred Kramp is just about ready ta start on a new front far bis furniture store. Murphy's furniture and appli- ances bave also made major changes ta the interior of their King St. West store. An entirely new layout for botter displav was made after the entire store wvas repaintcd. So, the town is cet'tainlv showing progress which is ail ta the good and should 'keep shoppers at home. NEW BUILDING- With the exit of the final tenant from the bouse on Cburch St. whicb xii be tbe site af the new liquor store, an advertise- ment appears in this issue for tenders ta tear the building down. We understand there is still some delav concerning just where the new store will be located on this lot. due ta the bv-laxv which states there must be '25 foot at the rear of the store. Once this complication is cleared it is lVjie\ved the provincial authorities are aIl set ta '§-tart con- struction and have the building completed in time àfor the Christmas trade.
