G. Il. FLETCHER MARBLE AMI
GRANITE WORKS.
(Su0ccssor to Bowers Monumental

u The C. f. Fletcher Marble and
Granite Works came into existence
the 18th of June, this year, and was
a successor at that time to the Bow
eTs Monument company, which had
been in operation for the past five
years. The Bowers company started
in a very small way, but by a policy
of giving nothing but the very best
quality Of workmanship and goods
put out, succeeded in building up q
most satisfactory business.
The Bowers business, taken over by
Mr.. G., L. Fletcher, had grown to be
reckoned as one of Albuquorque's sub
stantial enterprises. Mr.. Fletcher, the
new owner. was with the Bowers
organization for three years prior to
his taking it over. He thoroughly
understands the business and aside
from introducing some new ideas
along various lines, will conduct the
business in the same way it has been
conducted, a way that has popularized
it with the public.
The concern is a designer and
builder of monuments, soldiers mem
orials "Of the Better Kind" in fact
anything wanted in the way of marble
or granite work. The G. e. Fletcher
Marble and Granite Works ship all
raw material to Albuquerque in car
load lots, making it possible for them
to handle any job, no matter how
large it may be. A large and COM
prehensve stock is carried on hands
at all times giving ample quantity for
selection, no matter how discriminat-
ing the taste.
The plant of the concern is loacted
at 215 North Central avenue, the
premises here embracing sufficient
yard space to handle all contracts that
may come in. None but the most
efficient men are employed on this
class of work by the concern, thus
giving to patrons the very best talent
that can be procured in executing
.!artistic design. Mr.. Fletcher's ex-
perience has taught him that a we'll
satisfied patron is the best method of
advertising, and to this end makes
every effort to see that every job
that leaves the works is a satisfactory
one.
In the sale of its goods the Fletcher
organization covers the states of New
Mexico, Arizona, parts of Texas, and
has shipped goods as far away as
South America--two orders having
been sent there within the past year.
It is the only institution of it's kind in
Albuquerque and is deserving of loyal
support and patronage.

the brokerage business pay, by selling

the success of this campaign is the
fact that New Mexico is today stand

those using "Mazola." This showing
is remarkable when considering the
population of Indians and MeXicans
However "Mazola" has come to stay.
1t so thoroughly takes the place of
animal fats, besides being a capital
substitute for olive oil in making salad

The former kaiser was educated III
Germany. If he could have been caught
young and put through an American
preparatory school and an American uni
versity the history Of the last twenty
five years might have been very differ
ent. We do not suppose that the Belgian
crown prince has reached any definite
con,l fusion about what he would really
like to do about his education, but his
father could do much worse than give Sc
rious thought to sending the youth here
for year or two. He could find in the
University of Pennsylvania democratic
atmosphere along with large body OF
students from Latin America and the
Orient as well as from all of our own
states, contact with whom would broaden
his vision and make him better qualified
for the tasks that are ahead of him.
