A HARSH REMARK ABOUT MEN

Last Friday perfectly good man
was talking about the road bond
election, and he made remark that
we studied over good while. 1t
was this:
"There are ,ome men who are
against the bonds, am sorry to say,
but when l find man who is against
them, l find a man who is against
his family, against his church and
against himself xl
AS we studied on our own obser-
vations, we remembered several men
who had said they were in doubt
about how to vote, and each of them
was perfectly good, thoughtful
man desiring to be about right. Then
we spent about three hours going
from man. to man drawing him out
on public affairs to see what kind OF
men were opposed to borrowing
money. and making needed improve
ments on public account, and when
we had finished the circuit and re-
turned to the office, the one thing
that stood out most was that the
particular fellows who had spoken
emphatically against bonds and
roads and progress were the fellows
described in the second paragraph OF
this article. =
If that holds true in general
way it is too bad. II 1t is true in a
general way, beware Of the company
you get in with by your vote. We
hope that is not generally true. Turn
back and read it again and see how
it impresses you. M

FOR GREATER CONTROL
OF WEATHER IN BUSINESS

Ford Hassing, the Broadway
photographer, has installed two ma
chimes that enable him to defy the
weather clerk in pushing photog-
raphy. In the average photograph
gallery there is little coop where
on sunny days, somebody is busy
printing by the use of sunlight, and
when days are cloudy, patrons have
to wait.
In the Hassing studio, sunlight
manufactured at midnight or noon
day by water flowing over wheel
at American Falls, flashes in nest
of colored bulbs in the dark room Of
the Hassing studio, and plates and
developing paper exposed at the
right place do the printing of your
photo exactly as you are. Then they.
take the chemical bath for q few
minutes and pass to the other ma
chine that defies the weather man
by drying the photos in four minutes
by artificial heat and delivering them
at the end of draper in perfect con-
dition.
II it were necessary Mr.. Hassing
could 60 to his studio at midnight
and draw sunlight from the water
fall to take, print and dry your
photo and send you on your way
with 1t before sunrise.
Now don't all make dates with him
for midnight. He wants to sleep
like other people, but yon don't have
to wait on the whims Of the weather
when you make engagements to get
photos Of Hassing in the Eccles
huildinv
