the 'Cooks;, The Harrises Pnd
Cooks were close friends w)ven
they lived in Minnesota 1 before
Harrises came to Brooks more
than "a decade ago. ' .
The Harris family ha? been
looking forward to this vl lt for
some time, and they were doubly
pleased for there were many
special messages of interest
from relatives and old friends.
Mr. Cook's wholesale .grocery
business" would not permit him
so long a vacation as that of his
wife and he has only Joined her
for the latter part of the visits.
Probably his wife's vacation has
seemed longer to him than it re
ally was for her, for he is telling
her that Grants; Pass has so
changed In the few weeks that
she has been gone, that she won't
know It. Hevsays "They have
even painted the church while
you were gone." Tney pian to
