preme Court Justice Burr handed down

members of the association. who applied
for the injunction. complained that the
apartments occupied by the negroes
were overcrowded and that their sani-
tary condition threatened disease to
other occupants OF the buildings
Argument on the application was
heard by Justice Burr on August 4. The
protesting tenants asserted that the
owner of the buildings. Edward w
Browning. and Charles Klein. his lessee,
were attempting to convert the proper

the apartments by the week and fur

Justice Burr held in his decision that
there is no law in this State which pro-
hibits landlord from renting his
apartments to tenants solely because of

Health be told OF any sanitary viola

The Keeping of a
Store Like This

is quite a different matter
from the ordinary store
keeping.
We believe we have an
entirely different theory Of
merchandising.
Instead of taking in
everything that can be
sold at profit, we do
what the cottagers do at
SO m e seashore resorts,
namely, we put up at our
windows and doors species
of mosquito netting strong
enough to shut out every
kind of merchandise that
leaves bite or sting upon
our customers.
Studying closely our Gus
toners likeiugs, we secure at
sources of production and pur-
chase for immediate cash down
what we believe they desire,
and mark everything at fair
prices at the beginning of the
season, which prices are ad-
justed afresh with every change
in the markets, so that they sell
quickly and therefore we do not
need to have odds-and-ends,
helter skelter, hurry scurry
sales every week and a hurly-
burly- come-quick riddance sale
now and then.
Does it not seem silly to put
such big prices on when the
goods come in and then be OBJ
liged to mark them down so
much to get them sold?
Think it over for yourself.
