THERE’S SO BLOOMIN’ MANY

signs of blooming spring, but here’s the one that looks good to us. It happened Thursday. Jake Johnson, the hard working and optimistic road contractor from Gillam township, gave us a May delivery order for another big stone truck. Jake uses Republic trucks exclu* slvely, and Jake knows his business, so there must be a reason. This new job is to be equipped with a steel body and hydraulic hoist, and is the last word in efficiency. Jake is a practical optimist who has faith in himself and the world in general. He's one of those masters of circumstance who never let their hand know it if they catch their foot asleep. He’s dping a lot for his neck of the woods In the way of Improvement, and besides making some good roads to town, we’re sure he’s paving his own road to success. Here’s hoping. —THOMPSON & KIRK.
