SHIRLEY ON THE IP FOR SURE NOW
New Electric Railroad Gives New Life
and Energy to the People of
Brown Township.
Shirley, July 5.—Shirley is on the map, and rated among the best stations along the Indianaphli6, New Castle and Toledo Electric Line. Her cash receipts will show up with the best of them, although, not quite so large in population, but will show the goods in the end, as patrons on the new road. Her many comers and goers and the junction of the Big 4 By will bring in a large patronage for the new line, but the only thing that is not just right is the station so far out of town, which puts the passenger traffic to some trouble to get to the station, yet we all appreciate the many conveniences it gives us just the same. We have the nicest station on the entire line and it is equipped to the finish, with the modern fixtures, this we appreciate also.
