gains in money-savers. Young McIntire
is great hand at selecting good stuff
to offer to his many patrons each Sat
urday, and it is this cause alone that
has built up nice business for him. His
meats, fish, poultry and groceries are
all quality goods; otherwise he would
not hold his enormous turnovers each
week. If you wish to get in line with
the other savers, here's where you can
do it.
The Sanitary Market has record-in
fact, several of them To enumerate
them I might mention, first. cleanliness;
second, quality and third, service. My
friend Harry Norriss, who proudly heads
this market place. is constantly on the
job personally. He don't leave the head :
work for someone else. He has system
OF his own that has built up great
trade, and he proposes to play out his
hand When it comes to quality meats,
fat poultry, fresh fish and vegetables,
this Sanitary Market is the place. He
is in a block where competition Isl hot,
but all competitors look alike to Harry.
And you will agree with me when you
see the crowds there each week
There are lots Of other market places
with more display and larger stocks
than carried by Ethridge's Temple of
Economy, but when it comes to quality
and service. this little market is there
Young Ethridge believes in carrying the
best of everything and turn it over right
now thus insuring fresh stuff from day
to day. For Saturday, he always has
a surprise in store for the ladies who
go marketing with a Sunday basket.
Quality first then service, is the rule
here, In the grocery department and
on the vegetable stands will be found
bargains that are hard to duplicate. The
location of this market is on Fourth
avenue. between Nineteenth and TWEEN
tieth streets.
And again we have with us that bunch
of live brothers-the Catanzano boys.
The Age Herald couldn't go to press
on Saturday morning without the adver-
tisement of this firm. and the boys
claim they would lose business if they
failed to appear in print. So there you
are. When it is delicacies you want, let
these boys tell you what they have. Gus
has great reputation for good poultry.
and you will be we'll supplied there today

Some Hints About
h@Sumday DINNER
and Where to Buy
BY JOHN G. MOSES.

WITH the Springtime with. us home
gardens are supplying some few articles
of greenstuff. But there are many other
stands this morning that we cannot have
in the back yard.
Many new delicacies are coming in
daily. and what the advertisers on this
Market Page don't have in stock isn't
worth having. Read them over this
morning and make your selections.
Holzer is offering nice line of spe-
cialties in his bargain list What he
offers at bargains each week mean real
money saved. as the saving can easily
be figured out when compared with prices
quoted by many competitors on the same
article. The fine cuts of western meats
on display for today are beyond improv-
ing as to quality. Quality is one of Hol-
zers hobbies-a good one at that. And
any time when the good wife doesn /
feel like preparing meal, a glance
over the delicatessen layout of this mar
ket will solve the question of what TO
do. Anything good to eat can be found
here, with Sig Levy on the job.
On another page of this mornings is
sue will be found an announcement by
John S. Lees Cash Grocery. Mr.. Lee
recently took over the business of Tan
ner Bros. on Fourth avenue, between
Nineteenth and Twentith streets He
wishes to thank all his patrons for the
way they have treated him and for the
generous amount of business shared with
him. The cash policy has been put in
effect here. and it's a case of where
cash talks" Mr.. Lee wishes to an
nounce a big list of Saturday specials,
where quality and service will go hand
in hand If you have not already met
the welcome accorded all who trade here
drop in today and get acquainted.

Record of Men on File.

The government has a. record of
what each man is best flied for. in
civil life. The ministry of public
service, which has efficiently COM
piled this data, has. together with
other official agencies. prepared a
list Of necessary industries in the or
der Of what is deemed their i'm
portaRce. The first few, are called
key" trades, many of which produce
materials needed for use in other
trades. The idea is that it would be
useless to release a lot of structural
steel workers ahead of the men who
produce steel. The trades list is.com-
plete, but will not be announced be-
cause of controversies it might
arouse.
The fact that a man has a. job await
ing him will not insure his early re-
lease. The government would like to
be rid of that class. but it cannot ham
die more than half the aElny at one
time, hence rigid adherence to in
dustrial needs. A soldier may be q
diamond setter with job to go to
while his trench mate may be a rail-
way brakeman without a job. The
brakeman will be. taken first and
given an opportunity to go to work.

Asa best dress for a little girl of six,
no style is more uniformly becoming

This style is especially good at the
present time because velvets and vel

times these rich fabrics are not very
much approved for small girls except
for special occasions. In fact; velvet
is usually only employed in the de-
velopment of coats for girls younger

While Chatterer was making him.
self very much at home in the house
of his cousin. Happy Jack the Gray
Squirrel, Happy Jack was. snoop-
ing around this way and snooping
around that way and shopping around
every which way trying to. find one
of Chatterer's storehouses. You
know almost always Chatterer has
more than one. Sometimes he has
nearly dozen. It was cutie by acci-
dent that at last Happy Jack did find
one of Chatterer.s storehouses. 1t
also wasn quite by chancet that this
happened to be, the largest of Chat
terer's storehouses.
Happy Jack peeped in. then drew a
long. breath. That storehouse was
quite as well filed as was his own.
There were hickory nuts there. great,
fat hickory nuts. The very sight of
them made Happy Jacks mouth wa
ter. There were some brown chest
nuts, more than Happy Jack had in
his storehouse, and there was yellow
corn, just such nice yellow corn as
Happy Jack himself had.
Farmer Browns Boy has treated
Chatteref Just. as we'll. as he did me-
thought Happy Jack. "My. how good
those hickory nuts look! 1 believe
I'll eat one. Chatterer won't miss
one: Besides. if he does I'll give him
one of mine" So happy Jack picked
out the biggest, fattest hickory nut
he. could find. and then went on lit
tie way to eat it.
Now it takes some time to- open and
eat a fat hickory nut. All the time
Happy Jack, was doing this he was
thinking. He was thinking. and lis
tening to old Mr.. Temptation.
!, Some Of those hickory nuts. are
bi4eer and fatter than any you've
got" whispered old Mr. Temptation.
NO such thing said Happy Jack
inside himself. They are just the
same as the ones Eve got.''
You know very we'll that this nut
YOU are eating is the sweetest one
you ever tasted whispered old Mr..
Temptation There must be a lot
more just like it. Why don't you help
yourself while you have the chance ::
You know your cousin Chatterer
would if he were in your place"
Il don't care if he would" said
Happy Jack THAT is no reason why
l should do such a thing. I'm not
going to listen to you, so there."
"Ia, ha, hal" chucked old MIR. Temp
tation. II see you've finished that
nut. Let's go get another and talk it
over
So Happy Jack did go get another
fat hickory nut and while he. ate it he
listened to old Mr.. Temptation.

90 Per Cent of Army to- Go
Back to Former bseof'Afe'
to Get New Ones.
KEY TRADES TO- BE. FIRST

LONDON, November Correspond
ence OF the Associated Press).-The
British government has completed
it's basic plans for demobilization OF
the army and providing employment
for the men whose sole business for
four years has been war.
It Is calculated that SO per cent OF
the men in the army will go back to
their old jobs or have new ones
awaiting them, but taking. care Of the
remainder, even though. every ounce
of man power will be- needed after
the war, presents a most difficult
problem.
It will be long,. tedious task to
transform millions of men from
khaki to civil life and must be done
by degrees. By the plan agreed upon
these degrees have, been fixed upon
the needs of industry. with certain con.
sideratfon being given to married
men or those who, may otherwise be
needed in the home.

Rail Men and Miners Preferred.

1t is reasonable to suppose that rail-
way workmen. if not heading the
key" list, are very close to. the top
Of it. and also THAT miners are well
up. 1t is vitality necessary to de-
mobilization plans to have. the rail-
ways in running order and the miners
are needed to increase the fuel sup
ply for industries and home comfort.
And so on down the long list until
practically every recognized trade is
included.
When man has been selected for
discharge he will be sent to a col
Letting camp, the most of which, of
courses will be in France. He will
then be sent to a distributing camp
in England, where he will receive his
allowance for civilian clothing. He
will be given a months furlough,
which will mean that he will be on
army pay while getting located in
new work. From this stage the min
lister of labor assumes charge. He
will have the aid and cooperation Of
local employers. associations and
labor unions. Already long lists of
jobs open to soldiers have been pre-
pared. 1t remains for the govern
ment employers and unions to get the
job and the man together.
