• Notes

  THE MISSES POWELL. If there is one class of human beings that affords the writer pleasure to mention in the general write-up of a community it is its industrious business women and hence it would have been a considerable source of regret to him to have neglected to call attention to the above well known firm in this voluminous collection of Elmira's business interests. The Misses Powell opened their dressmaking, millinery and fancy goods emporium about eight years ago and by strict attention to business and turning out first class work and doing it promptly they have earned an enviable reputation. Being reliable and long established they can count among their patrons the best class of citizens of the town and surrounding country. In the dressmaking department they are prepared to turn out garment's made from the cheapest or most costly fabrics and in the latest fashions. In the millinery line they are prepared to produce the most fashionable and becoming bonnets, hats, etc, in the latest New York and Paris designs if desired while they do not turn out inferior work their charges are, nevertheless, always reasonable. Waterloo County Chronicle 27 Jan 1898, p. 1, 2, 3
