.CUTTING TABLE CLIPPING.
It is with pleasure that the Tailor .
Shop extends a hearty welcome to our
funer tlojmate, Gideon Hanbury,
and we tmst that this boy will .grow
into what he promised as a small boy,
Ever since pchool opened there has been
a constant demand for school and uni
form suits and troupers to supply all the
runv pupils, and some of the old as well,
and consequently, we have been very
busy; a condition that 'we like very
much for one never can tell just what "
a boy is capable of until you push him
at bis work. And the tailor shop is
pleaped " io say that it contains some
pushers when it comes to business.
A visitr jo the Tailor Khop on Monday
morning would have found Alex Cajete
at the cutting table designing a draft
for a double breasted coat and vest and a
pair of peg top trousers (a la London
style) for himself, as he has authority
from the office in the form of an order
to do so. Well, we will wait and see, and
like the man from Missouri, ((we will
show you'' ) but space and time will not
permit us to tell all of it, so we will
close by inviting the American . reporter
to call again next week, '
The T Alton Shop.
