The merchants of Sanford have taken special pains to make their show , windows look attractive to the eye of the shopper during the holiday season. Many of th edecorations are artisti cally arranged with great taste and show the goods on display to great advantage.. There is one show win dow in the town that has attracted no little attentioin. We refer to the show window of The Lee Hardware Company. It was decorated with many kinds of trophies of the chase to advertise hunting goods. The work was done by Mr. H. C. Roberts, who understands the art of decorating a window so as to catch the eye of the public. He recenlty made some chan ges in these decorations so that they would be appropriate to the Christ | mas season. Among these decorations are two deer heads, two chicken hawks and two sea gulls, a robe made from a deer skin, the property of Dr. M. L. Matthews, a great American eagle, a lake with snow and ice and wild ducks, a raccoon, a ground hog, from . West Virginia, the property of Mrs. Raymond Knight, two black squirrels, a skunk, thees and moss, guns and ammunition. In another window is a beautifully decorated Christmas tree suggestive of the Yuletide season. In the third window of this same store is boy scout and athletic goods. Pass this store any hour in the day and you will find people looking at these decorations. • Maybe the perfection of that new foot power airplane explains the re cent reduction in the price of gaso line.
