Watch the Papers for Band Concerts Off for the Country; The irime of year is again approaching when people aro flocking to the country to escape the sweltering heat of the crowded city. A vacation trip is one of the very necessaiy expenses to men who work, live and sleep in crowded cities, but many there are who, even though they need an occasional trip to the country, ,cnn ill afford to take the time or stand the expenses of such a trip. Our advice to the man who lives in a crowded section of the city, where his household goods are crowded into a narrow, breathless apartment and his children have to play in the streets, is to move out where there's air and sun shine into a homo of his own. g ankers Realty Investment ompany HANDLE MANY SCHOOL CASES Special Truant Officer Carver Has Record of Fifteen Daily.
