Show J. F. Smith Retires From Springville Mercantile Field J. F. Smith, for many years en gaged in the mercantile business in this city, is retiring from this field to accept a position with one of the large hardware concerns of this state, he states. The store is closed pending the taking of inventory, after which it may rc-open long enough to close out the present stock of merchandise merchan-dise at sale, or the entire business may be taken over under new management, man-agement, according to Mr. Smith. Springvill citizens will regret the retirement of Mr. Smith and his affable wife from the mercantile , field here. The loss of this business busi-ness from the city is a severe blow. It is universally hoped that the store will continue to be operated here. |
