milestone of its existence last week
and appropriately celebrated th

substantial office of its own. We ar
glad to note both these evidences o

hard during his life in Valentine , an
his success must be a gratifA'in :

has had to bear mam * "slings an

beds of ease , " we with all others wh
love Valentine and its business entei
