STEAM LAUNDRY IS
 SECURED AT MESA

MESA, April 7.-S. F. Korngut, an experienced steam laundry operator has rented the Crismon building on West Main street and is installing a complete steam laundry equipment. A portion of the machinery is here and the remainder is expected daily. It is intended that the laundry will be in operation within the next two weeks.
 Mesa has long needed g first class steam laundry, as is evidenced by the large amount of business con- ducted here through outside auto de- llveries operating between Mesa and Phoenix. The Mesa Commercial club has been trying for several years to locate a complete plant and has cor responded with dozens of men only to find out that the person making inquiry needed local people to fur nlsh the money. When Mr. Korngut approached the club management, he came with proposition to finance his own plant, and at once a club representative set out with him to obtain all the desired data and also location. The result is the addition of this valuable enterprise to the business interests of the city.

Buys Mesa Opera House

c. R. Trickey of Mesa, dealer in second hand articles of all sorts, has purchased the Mesa opera house and will obtain possession not later than June f He will fit up the lower floor for a furniture store, carrying both new and second hand lines An upper story will be added and this will be made into rooms for living apartments.
 This purchase and the expansion of business which it represents, is q tribute to the close attention to business given by the owner. Two years ago Trickey began in a most modest manner to bu and sell sec ond hand articles. Mrs. Trickey gave liberally of her own time to make his business a worth while affair. That he has been successful is shown in the purchase made.
 The Mesa opera house was built some years ago by the church of Latter Day Saints and has formed the principal center of amusement both for the church and for the gen eral public, being at all times for rent for worthy entertainment pur- poses.
