W. J. WRIGHT TO OPEN STORE IN BROOK

W. J. Wright, of this city, in connection with Victor Hancock of Morocco, will soon enlarge his business operations by the opening of a new variety store in Brook. The store will be located in the Boyer building on Main street, and we will predict that it will soon be recognized as the center of business in that city, with such push behind’it as the owners possess. Mr. Wright is a thorough, up-to-date business man, possessing lots of energy and has made a decided success of his business in this city. A few years ago he became interested in the possibilities in a business way offered by the thriving little town of Morocco. He immediately set about to acquire business interests in that town and it was not long until he was the possessor of a splendid furniture business. Morocco citizens recognize him as a man of ability and feel that he has helped make their little city for them. There can be no doubt but that Mr. Wright and Mr. Hancock will make a success of their new venture the same as everything else they have undertaken. Brook is one of the best business centers in this section and will be enriched to the extent of acquiring two live, wide-awake business men in Messrs. Wright and Hancock.
