HERE'S THE LATEST IDEA YET
IN MARKETING OUR 2Oc
QUART ICE CREAM

Last week we announced that we
would sell first class, guaranteed pure,
ice cream at zoe a quart. We sold
many gallons at this new, wonderfully
low price.
Today we announce a bigger and
more extraordinary feature connected
with this same quality of ice cream
selling at the same price. 1t is a
wonderful new paraffined pasteboard
tube. These tubes contain big quart
of solid, rich ice cream; frozen hard
and packed tight. There are two big
advantages connected with buying
cream this way; it keeps the cream
cold and solid while being carried
home and the pasteboard peels away
like the paper from a paper pencil,
leaving the ice cream in perfectly
formed Cylindrical shape which may
be sliced in neat, circular slices It's
fully az nice as brick ice cream and
there il no waste left sticking to the
sides of the container.
This is a permanent feature with
this bakery always ahead" You will
see the wonderful advantage to you
the minute you see the new plan for
selling ice cream.
There ID. yet another reason why
bakery is the logical place to buy ice
cream, even il the cream were not
lower in price, of high quality and
conveniently sold: it's the fact that
you can, at the same place, buy the
finest cakes ever made; all varieties;
priced from 10c up. Or if pie for an
la mode dish is preferred, here you
car buy great. large, thick, generous
pies filled with the choicest fruits pos
sibIe to procure. Almost every va
riety ever conceived is baked fresh ev-
cry day-no finer ones ever graced
your china. They sell rapidly at 15c
each.

Among other things the commits
sion plan of city government looks to
the administration Of city govern
ment in behalf of the people of the
city-not for the benefit of the pub
lie service concerns that may be do
ing business within that city
A writer on the subject of commits
sion government for cities says:
Under the old plan it was often
literally true that the city government
was mere bureau of the local gas
electric, water or railway company.
Il was the game of these corporations
to keep politics as complex as possible
so that the average citizen could not
see the workings of the government.
The commission plan lets in the light
The public service corporations have
receded to their proper place in sub
ordination to the people"
The council system of government
works for the benefit Of public ser
vice corporations in Pendleton ana
II does this in two distinct why's. First
the council system causes RESPONSE
bility to be scattered among a COM
paratively large body Of men. This
causes each member to regard his in
dividual burden rather lightly-es-
pecially since he is not paid for his
work-and the general effect is bene-
ficial TO the public service corpor-
atoms. All men Of experience realize
this.
Then when a large number Of coun-
oilmen are needed and they work
without pay there is naturally some
difficulty in getting good men to come
out for office This affords easy

picking" for a corporation that wishes
to have a firm hold on municipal
government. A corporation usually
knows who its friends are and it is
often possible for concern to slip
several of its friends into office with
out anyone knowing of their friend
ship.
This does not necessarily mean
crookedness on the part of anyone,
The friendship may have an honest
basis. Again it may be upon a crook
ed basis and may he due to favors
shown the official by the corporation
in which case the thing is nothing
more or less than bribery.
But whatever the conditions of such
friendship may be it is not well for
the public to have men in office who
are unduly friendly to the public SER
vice corporations nor who are in any
way under. obligations to such con-
Germs. Nor is it necessary to elect
officials who are hostile to such con-
Germs. The desirable official is one
who is independent of any. such in
fluence and is free to serve the pub
lie ana the public only. He should
be the agent of the people and not

The commission form of govern

locks to getting such men as this int
office. 1t provides for only few Of
flcials so that responsibility may bt

ing salaries to officials so that they
will have a bread and butter inter
