 BROUGHT ID PHOENIX
No Longer Necessary to Go Abroad
 After Plate Glass

II was just a few years ago that Phoenix builders and contractors were forced either to pay prohibitive local freight rates or let the business go to the coast or eastern firms when needing large size plate glass. Today, because of the establishment and success of the Southwestern Sash and Door company in this city, this condition has changed and Phoenix has d home concern that is a big quantity buyer. able to meet all com petition and to give first class ser vice. It is interesting to note that on all glass that is too large for box car shipment. SD that a flat ear is required, the freight charges on H single pane is the same as though it weighed two tons and half so tine only way to "get by,' and be able to furnish large glass for local requirements at reasonable prices is to buy by the carload as does the concern referred to.
 The Southwestern Sash and Door company handles everything in the line of sash and doors.' also prism and art glass and is the Arizona agent for the famous Kawneer all metal system of store fronts, like that recently installed in the hand some Central Pharmacy Among oth- er jobs recently handled by the Southwestern are the seven story Ackel building. the eight fronts in the new Jones block, the Thalheimer block, the new Ballsun store and many others that are attractive for their modern design and construc- ton.
 R. r. DeMund, manager of the company. says that there las been an unusual amount of high class building and remodeling, particularly in the business district, in Phoenix this spring, and that his company anticipates very lively conditions when the fall building movement starts.
