Louis Neubauer is now at the door of the meat cooler of the Empire Market, 43 Main street. As you know, Henry Methe is the proprietor of this market, and he has always maintained a reputation for handling the best in meats. Louis, you may also remember, was brought up under the direction of his father, the late Charles Neubauer, one of the two or three best market men in the North Country during the boom-boom-boom days of Saranac Lake.
