LAST CALL FOR SOUVENIRBOOKS-SUPPLY ABOUT GONEThere are ninety Souvenir Books of Marble yet unspoken for out of the thousand being printed in The Booster office. At the rate these are going, they will last about a week more, and then we'll tell everybody there are no more to sell. As a matter of fact we don’t really have to offer these ninety books. President Manning, of the Col-orado-Yule Marble company, wants them and he told us this week that he wanted all that w-e had to spare over and above his original order of 500 , books.Mr. Manning has paid us the compliment of saying that this is going to be a splendid souvenir of the town of Marble and vicinity. He has seen the printed pages of more than half the book and knows, therefore, what it is going to look like. There are now thirty-eight of the forty-four picture pages printed and done. That leaves six more picture pages, the fly-leaf introduction, and the cover to print. The cover, by the way, is to be a full-page pen and ; ink drawing by Lawrence Dever, a Marble high school boy, who has great skill with the pen, as a great many local people know. Lawrence has drawn a design that will add much attractiveness to the book. Wait till you see it and you will agree with us.Mr. Manning believes the Souvenir Books will be held at a premium before they are issued to the public, and he informed a representative of this paper this week that anyone who failed to reserve copies of the book from us could have them from him later on at $1.50 each. “Not a cent less,” he said, “for the books are worth that money.”The price of the books while we still have some unspoken for is 50 cents each delivered at the office; 60 cents sent by mail. It begins to look now like we would have them ready for delivery about November 20th.DEL. S. WEANT DEAD FROM
