JNO. ANDERSON & SONS,

This firm has the reputation OF
being one OF the most reliable bust
ness institutions in our city. John
H. Anderson is conservative man,
one of the stalwart citizens whose
best efforts have been devoted to
progress in civic, religious, political
and economic affairs. A public man
on whom one can always bank, he
has instillled into his sons the same
sort OF philosophy OF living. The
result is that John II. Anderon and
Sons Company stands for integrity,
reliability, squareness and honesty.
To say that it pays from finanial
point of view to incorporate these ell
