Paving dis. trict No. IT is pointed to as an exam pie of what the citizens have accom- plished without much aid from the city government, and there are mem bers of the city council who will eer. tainly oppose any proposition of the kind if brought before the council. Experts declare that the proerty own- CTS themselves could save money by paying for the work out of their own pockets. affording as it would so great saving in the matter of making con- nections with the water main.

ready to be reckoned witht in the business world.
 It is gratifying to Mir Dreyfus scores of warm, personal friends throughout the city to know that his iromotiCn came purely as a resu'H of lis own unaided efforts and real worth. While he is the son of MT. Isaac Dreyfus, head of the concern, his present position is not due by any means 10 this fact, as it is fact we'll known by those who are ac quainted in the least with Mir. D sey fuS' business methods that he places i'll os.tions of trust only those who have fully demonstrated their ability for the work In turning over the mammoth retail business interests of the Dreyfus department store to Il s son, MT Dreyfus has evidently done SC because he felt perfectly sure of the result. And while he has imposed upon the young man now in charge a position of the greatest responsibility it is freely predicted that the same success which has attended him in a subordinate pos tion will crown his efforts at the head of the concern.
 As general manager of the retail business, Mir. Dreyfus will have en- tire and absolute supervision over the big department store. The whole sale business at Main and Fifth is not affected by the change, as that is under separate management alto- gether.

 The appointment of Mir.

His co-vorkers and h.s subcr1inates III the shoe department bear toward him the utmost cordiality, and while he has been about this he has at the same time established most envi- able reputation for good sound busi- ness iudgment-so much so, ill fact, that he is today recognized as one al-
