Petition of county clerk for ln crfHmt of deputy's salary $10 per OLD TIME STORE FRONT TO BE MADE UP-TO-DATE Workmen Begin Changes For Im provement of Crider Building on Main Street. The work of modernizing the front of the Crider building on Main street near the corner of Mill was com menced yesterday morning by Holmes & Grant, the contractors. The old heavy brick piers that made It look more like an armory than a store will be torn out, and in their place will be an up-to-date plate glass front. With this change, the last of the old style fronts on Main street will disappear. When completed, which will be within the next few weeks, the build ing will reoccupied by William Her zog, the clothing merchant, who, it is understood, will place his son, a recent college graduate, in charge. In order to give the workmen a chance to carry on operations, Mr. Herzog recently removed his stock to Lebanon, Until a couple of months ago, the store was used by Mrs. Gregory. Prior to that time It was the home of Crlder's grocery, being occupied by J. W. Crider and later by his son, C. L. Crider, for many years. While the work is In progress some extra changes will be made to the stairway and possibly to the lodge room of the Masonic hail situated overhead, the details of which are to be worked out later.
