Confidence in Quality
Makes Good Store

The reliability and quality shown
in a grocery store goes a long way
with the customer. When you walk
into a store or when you telephone
an order in. you want to feel that
out a good, consistent quality of
goods. If you have confidence in
the material that he sells over the
counter, you know you are going to
get your moneys worth. If a mer-
chant sells you one quality of goods
one day and an inferior brand the
next day. you soon lose confidence
in him and what he has to sell.
Confidence goes a long way in the
buying of anything, no matter
whether it's shoestrings you're buy
ing or a house and lot. You want
TO feel that you are getting a square
deal. This particularly applies to
the grocery trade. 1t is almost en-
tirely up to the grocer what kind of
goods you get for the majority of
people do not take enough interest
in the various brands of goods to
tell whether one is better than the
other.
b. b. Drum. who conducts n store
at Sixth and Kelker streets. has
enjoyed the confidence of the peo-
pie IN the west END Tor NUMBER or
years. His experience and business
integrity stand him in good stead
in supplying the large trade that
he has The quality of goods are
standard every day in the week. not
one thing one day and another thing
the next day. This goes a long
way with his trade.
He handles a full line of staple
and fancy groceries and fresh meats
as we'll as fresh fruits and vegeta-
bies. He maintains an auto deliv-
cry service and supplies the best
class of trade.

Many Household Uses
For Milk and Cream

The amount of milk used in Har-
risburg is on the increase. no doubt
due to the fact that in using wheat
substitutes, more milk is necessary
in order to make the dish palatable,
Take mush and milk for instance,
or rice and milk and numerous 9TH
er dishes that can be prepared to
take the place of wheat.
The numerous household uses for
milk, makes this one of the most
important articles for sale and the
cleanliness of this product is a very
necessary asset. The milkman who
takes pains to see that the milk he
sells is of the best quality and clean
illness is a man who should be pat
roniZed.
The Cumberland Valley Dairy of
Lemoyne is a modern and up-to-da
creamery. Clarence Gill. the pro-
prietor, takes great pride in the ham
ding of the milk and cream that
he serves his customers. He deliv-
ers to all parts of the city.

Management of Grocery
Store Not an Easy Job

There are a large number of peo-
pie who are of the impression that a
grocery store will run itself and that
all that is necessary is to have a
good trade and the business will
continue = to roll in. This is some
illusion, for believe me, a grocery
store takes considerable maneuv-
ering to make both ends meet.
The manager of a grocery store
must be up to date in his buying eX-
perience as we'll as selling eXper-
ience. He must be able to buy we'll
and to get the advantage of all mar
ket prices in order to give his
customers the same advantage as
he would get. Things must be tast-
lily arranged so as to meet the eye
of the customer. They must be kept
clean and fresh. The service end
of the business must be followed up
and every thing kept shipshape and
ready for action.
/. E. Deppen the uptown grocer
is an up-to-date manager. He has
had years of experience in this line
and knows the grocery business from
a to z. He devotes a large part of
his time to the detail work in the
store. The detail work is where the
customer comes in for his share of
the courtesy and service that is nee
essary in all stores nowadays. The
large trade Mr.. Deepen enjoys is a
silent testimony to his business abil-
ity and it is increasing daily. When
you walk into the store there is
always a smiling clerk to wait on
you and to serve you with what you
want and to tell you the price with
out asking some other clerk. This
consumes a minimum amount of
time and is what every costumer is
looking for. This is where good man
agement comes in.
Mr.. Deepen carries a full line of
staple groceries, fruits and vege-
tables and smoked and fresh meats.
His store is located at the corner of
Sixth and Emerald streets. He main
tains delivery service and delivers
to all parts of the city.

cate the people OF Illinois in the use
and enjoyment Of the fruit.
Las year it is reported Illinois pro
duced 2,505,G66 barrels Of apples. OF
these only $1,000 barrels were used
commercially. OF course, good
many barrels Of apples that did not
appear in commercial transactions
were consumed on the farms or in
the communities where they were

simply rotted in the orchards.

seemed to be finer than usual, but they
were lying unused under the trees in

 x total absence of excitement in Dublin is reported in all dispatches to the morning newspapers from there and as far as known there have been no untoward incident in con- nection with the Sim Fein arrests anywhere in the country.

 K The Whitmonday holiday passed in the customary manner. The horse racing at Balldoyle and other sport Ing events were attended by the usual active crowd. The seaside re- sorts were crowded as were the golf courses.
 One of the correspondents of the Daily Mail says the calm is sensa- tlonal and the people appear to be unperturbed by the recent dramatic developments. He adds: But ap- pearances are deceptive. Dublin is not Ireland. The Constitutional Ma tionalists one generally meets here are not representative of the wild hoodlums who have given strength to the Sim Fein.

MENACE TO LIFE AT
 PATRIOTIC RALLIES
Building Inspector Hears of Halls and Churches Being Overcrowded and Issues Warning.

Following severa complaints made to Building Inspector Arthur N. Ruth erford, the inspector has seen fit to issue an off11ial warning to the public incluling the mana cement of private halls where public meetings are held, as we'll as churches and other places where crowds are apt to collect.
 Inspector Rutherford calls atten- ton to the city ordinance which pro- hibits overcrowding of public build ings and lays especial emphasis on the fact that it is a violation of the ordi- nance not only to permit too many to stand in the rear, thus blocking the exits, but also to permit chairs to be placed in the aisles It is especially this latter practice that Is dangerous as in an emergency the aisles would be blocked. Inspector Rutherford states that most of the meetings where these violations have been re- ported have been patriotic ones and since it has not been the act of an over-zealous or greedy financial man. ager, he feels certain the ordinances will be observed more strictly from now on.
 In case further complaints of this nature are received and are found to be true, prosecutions will follow.
