"Oh, He's Good
Because He's
Comfortable''
The soft, roomy body of the Wakefield Sleeper gives
baby ample room to move his hands and feet.
The adjustable hood keeps the sun from dazzling his
bright little eyes and gives him a chance to see all that
goes on about him.
Your baby will be good, too, if you give him the
solid comfort of a Wakefield Sleeper.

holiday.
C. It. Peck said that from tho spir
it t o found among tho pooplo ho was
afraid that good ronds day would be
a "flzzlo" nnd ho did not want to see
tho Chamber of Commerce get bo
hind n project that would ho n fall
ure. Ho suggested that n popular
subscription of $1 be taken up dur
ing tho coming week nnd tho funds
turned over to soma contractor who
would hlro men on Saturday, April j
-'), to do tho work.
Hugh McLaln snld Hint tho pcoplo
did not know what to do, whoro to
go, or where to got tools, on good
ronds day. Ho snld thnt he could
not find any enthusiasm among tho
pcoplo of Mnrshfiold, and thnt unless
good ronds day was planned some
weoks ahead, tho work dono would .
not amount to much for the lack of t
concentrated effort. i
F. P. Norton snld that tho pco
plo of Mllllngton woro Interested In
good roads, as they wanted to open

to Mllllngton. Ho said that
If matters woro arranged un

en townrd tho Mllllngton people Mr.
Norton suggested n tag day during
1 tho coming week, at which a great
I nmount could ho derived, nnd this
I money used for good ronds purposes.
; After this discussion, on n motion I
from C. It. Peck, It wns decided not
to go on record as making tho good
I ronds day a legnl holiday In Mnrsh
