A few days ago a little
woman from a Pennsylvania
town visited our store and as
we were showing her thru
the various departments, her
constant remark was, MY,
how much cheaper things are
here than in H"
Not having been in H. re-
Gently we cannot make more
comment upon her statement,
except to say that she is a
woman who keeps in close
touch with selling conditions
and knows what she is talk
ing about.
We can say, however, that
this store is doing everything
possible to keep the cost of
merchandise at the lowest
price level. Our buyers are
constantly in the market look
ing for Special Purchases"
and they usually find them,
too.

ment. Members of the council have
called upon Public Engineer George
J.. Farnsworth to compile figures
showing just how much the down town
and north section jobs cost over and
above his original estimates.
Rumors Of supplemental assess
ment aggregating $4,000 have caus.
ed considerable dissention in some
quarters, particularly among the orig
inal Objectors, upon whom the council
places the blame for bills that piled
up after Engineer Farnsworh's esti.
mate had been passed upon as being
a thoroly fair one. Delays brought
about by court fights at time when
procrastination was an expensive
luxury are fixed by the administra-
ton as being solely responsible for
the $l5, coo excess over the engineers
figures. At the time the contracts
were let to Mr.. Cherry his bid was
$4,000 over the estimate. but within
the legal limit. Since that time there
has been $1,000 added to the bill by
increased freight materials. haulage
and other things Mr. Cherry was in
no wise responsible for.
Mr.. Cherrys bin is looked upon as
fair one by the council. Mayor
Bradford and the commissioners have
been conversant at all times with the
increases he had to meet in order to
complete the job. which he did under
protest and against his better judg-
ment at a time when all other con
tractors were disseminating work
rather than stare bankruptcy in the
face
Next Tuesday, it is expected, Mr..
Farnsworth will have his totals de.
termined and will present them TO the
council. Immediate steps will then he
taken to get the case into court for
final confirmation. As yet no date
has been fixed for the hearing but
in all probabilities it will take place
early in January.
No word of an organized effort to
combat the supplemental assessment
