ALONG THE CONCRETE Sam Moore inquired Tuesday if we knew of anyone who had a printing press to trade for a bird dog and a shot gun. He thought that with the number of posted places over the project it might be more profitable than hunting.

We don’t know of a better excuse for a young man to get married than when he wins an electric re frigerator. But when this happened to Frank A. Reberger of Echo it didn't suddenly decide him in favor of making the move, although he did box his winnings and sent them to his sweetheart back home, who makes apple pies with golden brown pie crust.
