There's always < - something to be thankful for when a j monopoly strikes a town, it is really , no wonder that there is so much feel- | ing against corporations. The ice fund , for the poor will have to hump itself i to keep pace with a price like that. l I In addition to this robber's price the ice sold is not half made but taken ont j of the machine before it is matured, ( because in this shape it melts faster j and compels the purchase of twice the v ' quantity that would be needed if the • ' ic* were properly made. j ; (• » ® i A bevy of bright interesting young ladies from the city of Chester, Pa.. * came to the Elberon for a two weeks . vacation.
