Prosperous Grocery Firm Moves to Melczer Block on Adams Street: Out grew Old Location in Ma sonic Temple Building

When the wholesale grocery firm of Goldman Bros, the oldest firm in this city opens up for business this morn ing it will be housed in one of the most modern and convenient business loca- tions in Phoenix and in a building on which several thousand dollars has recently been expended to remodel it to suit the needs of the new tenants.
 In other words, the Goldman Gro cery company has moved from their old location in the Masonic Temple on South Central avenue to the remodeled Melczer building on the north side of Adams street. between First and Sec ond avenues
 Some tune ago, when it was evident that the growing business of the old firm made it necessary to seek new and larger quarters, arrangements were made with Louis Melczer for the remOdeling of the old location of the MelcZer Brothers wholesale liquor firm For the past month or so, some eXten- siVe repairs have been made on the place. The old front was removed, and strictly up-to-date glass front was installed, and a partition which sep arated the lower floor into two rooms was removed and one large, light and connexions business room was creat- ed. As the firm was to occupy the en- tire three floors of the building, an elaborate system of elevators was in stalled for the transferring of mer- chandise from one floor to another One of the elevators is located in front under the sidewalk, and will be used when unloading the transfer wagons.
 All of the modern store fixtures now in use by big firms have been installed on the lower floor, and a handsome layout of new shelving, counters bins, etc, greets the eye of the visitor One corner of the front part of the store has been partitioneG off and will be used as the business office The rooms are 30 by 137 and will provide some much-needed rooms for the grocers.
 The firm will hencefOrth give all of it's attention to the wholesale grocery business, the hardware line formerly handled by the cOmrany, having been disposed of to other parties. The com pany which has taken over the hard ware business will open up a new store on West Washington street in the room for years occupied by the old Log Cabin saloon, and will be known as the Palace Hardware and Arms company.
 Recently a reorganization of the Goldman company was affected, and the firm at the present time is com posed of Messrs. Leo and Eugene Gold man and Louis and Joseph Meclzer. and it is planned to maintain all of the old time business policies which have in the past had much to do with the up- building of the firms good trade. Messrs Melczer were formerly in the wholesale liquor business and are long time residents of this city.

No doubt if they should by chance come onto a few runs laying around loose in hotly contested game there would be one mad scramble to hook onto them. They would undoubtedly keep inside the rules, and if not they deserve a calling, which they will of course get.
 What the valley base ball league needs is more cooperation and less knifing the other fellow. This idea of protesting all games as they come along, is an extremely provoking stunt. If such tactics are continued, it is only question of time. when base ball as an er-school sport will cease.

 This is taken here to indicate that the Franco British campaign in the Kamerun is nearing a conclusion.
 The Franco British campaign against the Kamerun, a German pro- tectorate in Western Equatorial Af- rica, was begun in the spring of 1915 French and British official reports have told of the occupation of Ngaundere, one of the chief interior trading stations which, from it's sit uation, climate and the number of roads converging from it, was the center of German resistance; of the taking of Tibati, 137 miles from the Algerian border, and the more recent capture of the towns of Daing, Nkan and Lolodorf. and the retirement of large conveys in Spanish Guinea.
 The Kamerun protectorate has an area of 1911 square miles and has a population of 2,540,000, including about 2,OO0 whites. The only other possession of the Germans in Africa, not conquered by the allies is the protectorate of German East Africa, which has an area of 3S4,000 square miles and a population of 5,5OO,OO0.
