place for as years. Mr.. Meaders
spent two years in Uncle Sans Army

Kaiser, nine months of which time
was spent in France. While the

about eight months, or to be exa'C,
since August /, 1919, it has become
a favorite headquarters for the OBJ
tanning of anything in the furniture
and house furnishing goods line. Mr.:
headers is a director in the Bank of
Commerce and has had extensive ex-
perience in this business, having been
associated with his father in this line
of business all his life. He is a
young man of comfy and integrity
and his straightforward methods and
ceaseless attention to details have en-
abled him to make friends among all
