Day, who returned to Sa lem last autumn after four years in the service, set out on a job assignment from the United States employment service Thursday and found upon his arrival that he was to take out a brine freezing cabinet he had installed in 1913. When the cabinet was purchased and added to the equipment of The Spa restaurant 33 years ago by Frank Myers, since deceased, it was the finest thing of its kind available, costing it is . estimated some $5,000. Recently, The Spa's new owners secured an electric cabinet of the same capacity but a much smaller installation. So the bulky old cabinet is being; re moved. Getting Day and that job together was an unintentionally skilful bit of Juggling. Population of Culver, Sinter Totalled State census figures announced Thursday by Secretary of State Robert S.
