A GOOD NAME IS
 WORTH PROTECTING
The Experience of Big Shoe Estab- lishment, the F. Mayer Boot & Shoe Co.,, Suggests Caution
 in Buying Shoe.

The surest indication of superior quality in merchandise is when the successful article is largely initiated. The surest sign of the poorest and most unreliable merchant is one who wilfully misleads his customers into the purchase of inferior substitutes in place of the genuine article actu- ally desired
 The F. Mayer Boot X Shoe com pany of Milwaukee manufacture the well known Mayer Martha Washing ton Comfort Shoes. which, due to their superior merit. enjoy big sale. Unscrupulous and shOrtsighted deal CTS, eager for bigger profits. have permitted themselves to be led into the practice of selling shoes similar in appearance. but inferior in quail ity, representing them to be Martha Washington Comfort Shoes.
 Substitution is vicious practice which should not be tolerated in any community, and the merchant guilty of such deception would be getting his just deserts if his trade deserted him.
 The Mayer company have been com pelled, for their own protection. to inaugurate an extensive campaign to put stop to the unlawful use of the name and picture of Martha Washington. and will punish the guilty offenders. Other reputable manufacturers have had the same eX- perience.
 The practice of substitution obtains so generally that it is well for our readers to exercise little caution in buying supplies. See that you get what you are after and do not hesi tate to turn down a merchant who tries to mislead you. Our readers are no doubt familiar with the large Milwaukee shoe house. the F. Mayer Boot & Shoe Co. whose advertise ments have appeared for a long time in our publication. This company makes one of the finest lines of quality shoes in America and their reliability is we'll established. They make shoes for all purposes and for every member of the family.
 In addition to the Martha Wash ington they also make the Leading Lady fine shoes for women; Honor bilt fine shoes for men; Yerma Cush- ion Shoes. and Special Merit school shoes.
 The Mayer company now has fla cilties for making 5000 pairs of shoes per day.

SCHOOL ELECTION
 COMES THIS WEEK
Little Interest In 1t Being Shown by
 the Public

There is so little evident interest being taken in the forthcoming school election by the public that it may be well to again call attention to tine fact that there is such an election on Saturday of this week at the public school house for the pur- pose of electing one new member on the high school board and one new member on the grammar school board
 T. R. Dimes term of three years as member of the grammar school board expires and the three year term of Sam Brown on the high school board is likewise at an end.
 There is no man in the commit nifty who has given longer and more efficient service as a member of school boards than MT. Brown He served five consecutive three-yea terms on the grammar school board in that capacity and followed this up by a three-year term on the high school board. He has devoted a great deal of his time and given much earnest consideration to school matter and if there was ever a man who deserves a rest from duties of this sort, it is Mir Brown. All that has been said above regarding Mir. Brown may be likewise said of Dr. Dimes excepting his length of service. He has just completed a three year term on the grammar board and has much to be proud of. Many things have been accomplished by the school during Mir. Dimes term of office.
 While it is understood that neither of these gentlemen are anxious to be reelected. it is also understood that neither of them would decline to serve another term. Those who are with their work know full well that it will be impossible to re- place them with more competent or efficient men and as there seems to be no one else wishing for the two offices it would appear that the best method by which the public can eN- press its appreciation of the valued services of these two men will he by their unanimous reelection.

THE MATTER OF \
 COLD STORAGE PLANT
Is Discussed by the Poultry Men of
 Tempe

At q meeting of the Tempe Poultry & Egg Association Saturday the matter of cold storage for Tempe was taken up and discussed quite generally for an hour or more. It was the general opinion that for the best interest of Tempe and the farm ing community around Tempe the cold storage was an imperative need
 IL was thought that the merchants could be induced to subscribe for at least half the stock necessary to build a plant that would be of a ca pacity to accommodate the merchant and the egg association. and then have room to spare for fruits and vegetables.
 It was thought possible for the sum of $5000.0O to build such a plant that would at present supply all the demands and it could be left in such a shape that it couldr be added tO with very little expense.
 L. H. Smith, J. Blount and c. w Alexander were appointed a.-cOm- mittee of three to take the matter up and learn all they could on the subject as to who would help to build such a plant. the best location. about the cost, and any other infor- nation that they may get and pre- sent at the next meeting of the Asso- citation. While We do not believe that the plant can be made to pay a dividend that would be encouraging the first year all agree that it is only short time till the stock will pay at least 10 per cent on the investment annually and will fill a long felt want
 The merchants could then ship in their potatoes by the car and at least half of their groceries could be ship ped in the same way and thereby save at least 20 per cent on the pres ent way of doing their business. The egg situation alone will take care of at least half the cold storage within years from the time that it is run ming in good shape. We have plen- ty of market here for the eggs if we just had some way of regulating the thing so as to keep the price more uniform. As it is at the present. prices are varying from sc to 10c in a single month in the spring of the year which is neither satisfactory to the producer nor the consumer. We can do well with poultry here and shut out Kansas eggs altogether in a few years as our climate is far better for the production of eggs the year around than in any of the east err states and we are shipping many cars of eggs annually from the east when we should be shipping them by the car out of the country instead. There is no reason in the world why We cannot be exporters instead of
