And certainly none turning out moro

1t is one OF the distinctly crcditable
institutions which Fatrmont can
boast and It is but natural that our
people should have rallied to Its sup

In April, 1912, the Model Baker!

til his place had become one OF the
most popular in that section OF tie
city. It it was not alone his person.
al popularity and friendship which
brought him business. Mr.. Parker
IS honest in all things and the first
thing he did in opening his grocery
was to put in an honest stock-goods
hat he could recommend to his Gus
toners as first class and which he
knew to come up to the standard.
Then he gave honest weights anu
measures and treated honestly and
honorably with every person VINO
came into his store to make pur-
chase. These are some of the things
which have popularized the grocery
store Of Mr.. Parker and which have
caused the people to hold in sucn
