Wanted Ads Mix Furnishings and Housing Listings
A ragged page of want ads shows mixed listings for furniture, equipment, and housing. Entries request items like a tent, hose, and a kerosene heater, plus a modern 6 room house for rent near a car line, with phone numbers and partial addresses. Several ads propose sales of ranges, beds, linoleum, and an incubator, some noting guarantees or rewards, and others seeking buyers or tenants by phone.
