School building is let that 1t be awrd-
ed to contracting firm of West Viz
gtnia In order to give employment to
home people who pay the taxes which
makes tahe new building possible.
The Union has sent copies OF the
resolution to members OF the State
Board Of Control and is also taking
the matter up with other labor organ
izations OF the state In order to reach
more Of the people.
1t Is argued that when the Miller
school building. also the post office
building were constructed that out OF
state firms had these contracts and
only very few home people obtained
employment.
The following is the resolution
adopted:
That We, the Carpenters Local Union
No. 42S, respectfully solicit the assist.

POTASH AND pERLMurTERn

From time TO time the question
comes up whether or not the dramatic
critic should prophesy the business
value OF theatrical production-that

the merits of the question 1t is inter
esting to know that the trained writ

were unanimous in predicting for

predictions with satisfaction since the
famous play woven about Montague
Glass characters left New York only
after its second season and then only
because previous contracts made it
impossible for Manager A. H. Woods
TO keep 1t there longer.

We have just received a car load
of Ford cars, two OF which were de-
livered this afternoon, and others to
be delivered just as soon as we can
get them set up, getting them as we
do. in car lots, knocked down.
While we have seven car loads or =
dered, most of which are past due, as
spring Is opening, and with 1t in =
creased demand all over the country,
it is going to be difficult to get cars
as fast as we need them, SO II you
want one any time soon, better come
in and place your order and get in
line for prompt delivery. Following
is a copy of a letter just received
from Ford Motor Co.
A Mornings Mail at the Ford
Each succeeding morning mail is
breaking records these days in the
sales department of the Ford Motor
Company. Amazing figures even for
the Ford, are becoming positively
incredible figures. JFor example,
here Is a portion of one mornings
mail; Hood and Snyder of Jewel,

be shipped as soon as possible; the
Repass Auto. Co. Of Waterloo, Iowa,
want a train load of Fords at once;
The Brownell Auto Co. of Birming

Of Des Moines, Iowa, insist that
1000 Fords be shipped Immediately;
William Warnock & Co. OF Sioux

II we can have them" The Becker
