PAY N TAK|T' IS NOVEL GROCERY AT NEW PUBLIC MARKET

Among the chief features of the new Central market will be the "Pay'n Takit Grocery fourth of the self service stores operated by the Arizona Grocery company. The store will be operated on the cash and carry system. as it name sug- gests, and will be the largest con- cession in the market.
 The ePay'n Takit' will carry a full line of staple and fancy groceries with a complete dairy department in connection with it. This depart ment. which will be conducted by at fendants and not self served. will feature cheese of all kinds, imported and domestic, milk, both grade A and grade B, cream, day-old eggs, ranch eggs and butter. The butter carried in stock will be the companys own brand as well as all makes. of local creamery butter and ranch butter prepared especially for this market.
 A feature of the store Is the man ner in which the concession has been arranged. It has been built in such fashion that it may handle the great est number of customers in tho short est possible time. At each end of the concession will be cashiers, and en- frances and exits to the store will also be at each end. The store will be located on the Monroe street side of the market.
 The store will make special fea- ture of nationally advertised goods. such as Libby's products, National Biscuit eompanys goods. Henz's pickles and the Sugar Loaf brand of eastern packed vegetables. in ad- dition to all best-known brands of food products. The "Pay'n Takft will have no meat department nor any fruit and vegetable stand.
 Of great and intimate interests to the general public is the buying pow CT of the Arizona Grocery company a power which is to refund to the benefit of the patrons of the Pawn Takit'' as it does to the customers of the company's other branches. All

the staple and rsany of the fancy groceries purchased by this company are bought in carload lots. items purchased in this manner include flour, sugar. beans, rice, canned vege- tables. canned fruit canned meats and fish and jams and jellies. Ability to purchase in this man her permits the store to retail its products at wholesale prices. In oth- CT words the advantage gained ny buying in large quantities is passed on the the patrons of the store Tn lower prices, better service and more complete stocks. It also allows the store to sell high quality goods on the same price basis as goods of low CT quality. The concrete result or this in the "Pay'n Takit'' will be that all the standard grades of merchan- disc will be priced the lowest in the city.
 The concession has been so ar ranged as to permit the display of its goods to the best advantage, so that on the market side it will be to all intents and purposes one great dis play window.
 "The Pay'n Takit" will be the fourth of the cash and carry stores operated by the Arizona Grocery company, the other three being the Bon Ton, the Sugar Loaf and the Forage Pot. In addition to this there is the large service store. the Arizona Grocery company at Third and Washington streets, which with the cash. and carry. stores comprises the largest retail organization in the Salt River valley.

ART BRICK WORK IN NEW MARKET IS BY
 GAVIN BARTOL CO.

Modern principles of art brick con- struction are embodied in the work completed by the Garvin- -Bartol com pany at the new Grand Central mar ket. This firm built the beautifully finished brick booth on the First avenue side of the market house. The same firm is responsible for the cast stones and partition walls of the state engineers office building.
 In commenting upon the work at the new market building MT. Bartol said that the Garvin Bartol company has been il. operation here for the past year The methods they em- ploy in manufacturing are the latest and most approved.
 .sThe word Monolithic." he said, Gin concrete means a poured or cast product and in semi tropical climates like Arizona it is considered that the average factory run will be superior in quality to that of any tempered product"
 For facing brick the company ad- vises the use of natural stones like granite, quartz and marble. These, when ground and applied as facing, insure a finish that is permanent in both color and texture.
 If more prominent colors are re- quired, real metals such as copper l iron and others are used. The metals

TIMETABLES AND
 FRUIT ARE SHOWN

Fruits and vegetables are two of the few articles which most house. wives like to buy themselves, after making a personal selection, and in this respect the Grand Central Pub lie market affords many convenient ces. One of it's attractive fruit and vegetable stands in the Monroe Fruit and Vegetable company's place on the Monroe side of the building, oc- cupying the advantageous position of facing street and main aisle at the same time.
 In appearance the Monroe Fruit and Vegetable stand is a replica of the Economy stand, facing on First avenue. Both were designed by Fitz- hugh and Byron, architects for the market building, to combine the greatest usefulness with an attras- tive appearance.
 Each stand is 12x14 feet, the sides sloping up to give a pyramid effect while providing the low shelves for the display of the fruits and vege- tables offered for sale For top there are rafters supported by square pill lars, giving sort of pavilion air. The finish is golden oak, to conform to the general scheme of the markets

which are. as a whole. practically sides of the building that disappear
 On both streets the sidewalks have been extended to cover the ground from the building toNthe curb, doing away with the possibility of mud. Over the sidewalk has been built a wide permanent awning of steel, a protection from sun and rain.
 Parking place galore for machines is to be found in the immediate neighborhood of the market, and the Brill and Indian School cars pass by, stopping within less than 100 feet of either end of the market. Benches will be provided for patrons of the market who wait for cars.
 Other Features
 Many interesting features are to kbe found in the various concessions as well as in the market. Entering from the south aisle on Monroe Mon roe street, the big meat market of the Arizona Packing company is found on the right. st etching far into the interior of the market building, with its tempting display of every thing in the line of home produced meats and meat specialties, backed with tons and tons more in the big cold storage plant in the back. The company says there is no such a meat market in the state in point of com pleteness of the plant, choice stock and complete facilities for service
 This remarkable meat shop is to be called the Grand Central Meat Market, and will be the most highly specialized and departmentalized shop of its kind in the Southwest, according to officials of the packing company.

The conception of the plan for an up- to- date public market by the founders, the planning of the build ing, to be specially adapted to the purpose, the erection of the building itself, the securing of the high-class business men and women who con- duct the various businesses in the market-the accomplishment of all this in a period of approximately five months is a credit to the city and a monument to the faith in the future of this community on the part of the officers and directors of the Grand Central M.rket company. As matter of fact, it will be less than 120 days from the time the work of tearing out the old shacks, some twenty in number that formerly oc- cupied the site of the market, until the doors were thrown open this morning.
 The whole plan should be credited to Harry Gibbs and Robert F. Gar nett, the former a real estate man and the latter the owner of the prop erty. Some months ago Gibbs made a personal study of the public mar ket systems in several coast cities, and became convinced that such an institution would be a success in I general, under the conditions that make for more economic methods of doing business, which means lower prices, and with the purveyors of many necessities grouped under one roof, which makes for convenience for the public.
 Confident of Future
 Once convinced that the plan would meet with success, and having the faith of many years that the future prosperity of this valley is assured, despite temporary setbacks, they proceeded to organize the Grand Gen. tral Market Company, and got ready to begin.
 The plans were prepared by Fitz- hugh and Byron, after they had made a special study of the plans of the most successful markets, with the idea constantly in mind that the building was to be as convenient as possible for the buying public and for those who serve them in the mar ket. The result speaks for itself.
 The construction has been in the hands of the T. B. Stewart company, and has been pushed forward without an intermission from the first day the laborers began to tear out the old landmarks and. grub up the historic  by the early fathers of the village" when Phoenix was a little "'dobe'' town on the desert, not half so prom ising in those days as the village of Tolleson is today.
 The frame was constructed of re- inforced concrete and is faced with buff and cream concrete brick made by the Shope process. The floors are cement, smooth and sanitary, the plastered interior tinted in durable and pleasing colors. The roof, of the multiple truss type, is covered with Johns Manville asbestos roofing. the material for which doubtless came from the hills of Arizona.
 Doors Disappear
 The doors are an interesting fea- ture. They are so Constructed, weighted and balanced that they roll smoothly upward at slight effort, practically disappearing toward the ceiling, and being entirely out of the way. In rainy weather. however, they can be left closed and access had to the market through smaller doors hung integral with the big ones

are dissolved in acids and the sur face of the brick is saturated with the solution, the metals amalgamat- ing with the concrete in a permanent unit
 Surfaces so treated become water proof and the action of the weather increases the beauty of coloring. So far. science has developed no other method of coloring concrete that will give the same beauty and depth of color.
 The Garvin- -Bartol company man ufactures. in addition to brick, hol- low cast tile for both outside walls and interior partitions. base and stone front tile, Hntels. sills. columns, foun- dation blocks. silo blocks and many other kinds of cast stone work.

fixtures. Inside there is ample space to store boxes and crates of produce until they are needed.
 Like the Economy, the Monroe stand will carry a full line of ruits and vegetables of all sorts obtain able, and will make a speciality of low prices and high quality.
