Foxman says he will have a new and modern facility from the front door to the back. Cabell Ramsey of the Realty com pany and officials of the sewing machine company have not yet picked out,a “chair” but obviously they will have to in the very near future. This corner was occupied for generations by the landmark Tull Hotel, which gave way in the 30’s to a grocery store and in the 40’s the grocery store stepped aside to see the comer becoming a banking facility. * Foxman's has been in this loca cation since 1935 and although it will be moving it will not move so far that it’s old friends cannot find it. ; -... i r ■ ■ Jones County Girl Reports on Meeting She Attended Recently By Janie* Lowey The 36th Annual Meeting df the American Institute of Cooperation was held recently at East Lansing, Michigan, on the campus of Michi gan State University.
