Great interest was shown on the part of all visitors in the sparkling, displays of new items which it will be to the convenience of Rosendale people in the future to buy in the 5 & 10. No woman who visited the old stand of the Stadleman Drug Store expecting to find a modern and shining store, was disappoint ed,.-In. fact.-nxclamations were .rife that this ’ store far surpassed any thing that has heretofore been seen, m towns this size. If enthus iasm and approval are forerun ners of success, this newest Ros endale enterprise is promised an interesting future. This new store is a definite contribution to our growing community. Store will be open every day from 8 A. M. to 10 P. M. The store will be locally operat ed by George May, Jr. Shop in Rosendale and save is Mr. May ’ s \Motto\ and should be everyone else ’ s also. Why not do it? ------------ O ------------ ST. REMY AND PHOENICIA MEN TO HEAD FIREMEN The Ulster County Volunteer Firemen may hold their 1939 con vention in Phoenicia next year, making this choice at the conven tion which will be held in Ellen- ville July 15th and 16th, it was said by prominent members of the organization. Edward Moran, of Kingston, an ex-president appears to be in line for election as trustee for a term of five years, at the annual con vention of the Ulster County Vol unteer Firemen ’ s Association at Ellenville Friday and Saturday, July 15 and 16. So far as can be determined at this time Mr. Mo ran is unopposed in his candidacy for the office. First vice-president Philip Fisher, Sr., of St. Remy, will be elevated to the office of president and it is expected, ac cording to the present slate, that David Hillson of Phoenicia will succeed Mr. Fisher at first vice- president. Apparently the associa tion is well satisfied with the work of Frank Wynne who has been re cording secretary since its organ ization, and George Hammesfahr of Wallkill is likely to remain as secretary.
