Forsythe Store Building to lie Thoroughly Overhauled.
B. Forsythe will commence at once to repair the fire damage to his store building, occupied by Rowles & Parker, and will thoroughly rerhodel same by putting in prisnj, glass all around at top of show win* dows, an electric elevator, maliogony finish to woodwork, etc., etc. The work will be done by Ralph Donnelly and Louie Ramp, and they will begin on the grocery department front, as this work can be done without interferring with the Fire Sale now going on. The south display window of the old grocery department will be bricked up, thus allowing an extension of a few »feet to the dry gods department on the north. The electric passenger elevator will be located on the south side of the grocery department, immediately north of the cashier’s desk, and when the Repairs and remodeling ar? fully completed this will be one of the handsomest and most up-to-date store buildings anywhere in this section of the state.
