there is quite an agitation for oil over the township so we add our opinion which is that main conces sion lines should be oiled which would save the gravel from being wasted- while at the same time

were told a few days ago that scar boro and markham are being sup plied from whitchurch pits because their townships are exhausted this should impress us to conserve the pits left to us and a good way to doit is to use more oil friday and saturday june 29 and 30 two big shows for the price of one johnny doughboy jane withers ana 1fje amutodsice raid wardens with laurel and hardy monday and tuesday
