Ne-w   Look   For Main   Street
The Pabst's property on the Eastern end of Main Street is now under negotiation of sale to a pravte individual. Since Jan¬ uary 1, 1958, the property has been vacant, but last week work¬ men began to clean up these buildings.
In the near future, businesses will be moving into these build¬ ings. Main Street again will be lencwed to the prominence it mo\e n and promote the growth of the village.
The Main street of town was always filled with cars of custom¬ ers buying goods from their own merchants.
The next few weeks will, per¬ haps, show a considerable amount of activitv in this section of town.
