F. l. McCune Has
Grown With The.
City Of Ell Centro

Came Here Ten Years Ago and Has Met Every New
Demand. Brunswick Shop Only One of the
Kind in the County and is Model in it's
Adaptation to the Requirements
Imperial Valley press., 1922-09-07

A few days ago there appeared in the Looking
Backward department of the Press an item TO the
effect that in May 1912, F. L. McCune had arrived
in Ell Centro with his family, had accepted position
with F. S. Wing, and expected to make his home
here
How many things have happened since May,
1912? world war has been fought and In
Imperial county an amazing process of readjust
ment has taken place and in El Centro many many
business changes. In all of the business movements
here there has been growth and progress for f. L..
McCune. Each time he has stepped forward into
new place of responsibility and commercial import
ance Each year has brought him enlarged equip
ment and business organization, more complete
stock and closer place IN the hearts and estlma-
tion of the purchasing public.
The McCune Furniture Store is one Of the fore
most business houses in Ell Centre. It covers all
angles of the household needs and by business econ
onlies attempts to make all this available to the
people at popular prices. The McCune motto could
be stated-'Equal or Better Service for Less
Money
During the past yoar the outstanding commercial
event has been the opening of the McCune exclusive
Brunswick shop store dedicated and devoted to
the phonograph business. This is the only place of
the kind in Imperial county. The fixtures and
equipment of the shop installed under diIec-
tions furnished by the Brunswick people themselves
and include number of sOundproof rooms, COM
fortably furnished, with fans and everything for
hot weather, and scientifically arranged for the
demonstration OF the WOnQeTIul BRUNSWICK pnOn-
ographs and records A courteous attendant is in
charge all Of the time and Mr. McCune gives per-
sona supervision to make certain that service is
always maintained at the highest standard.
A full understanding of the phonograph business,
the tastes and demonds of the public, well the
latest and most instructive features which the
people ought to want and to have whether they have
taste for them not, all demand close application
to this department of the business and study and
research which really includes everything which is
taking place in the world. 1t is F. l.. McCune's
vision his hope and ideal and ambition to make
this available to thu people whom his Brunswick
Shop IS to serve, and day by day Mr.. McCune is
working this thing out right here in Ell Centre.
AS has been stated, the past decade is record o.
growth for F. l.. McCune. AS much may be expect
ed for the next decade. We may be Of that for
Mack is alert to what is transpring around him
and to what is going on in the world When new
service in his line is demanded McCune will furnish
it. For the present, he is offering to the people Of

Childhood Troubles Real

Summer days flew. yet Christmas
Jagged and lagged--and how long
the years seemed to graduation.
But now II Is different. 1t seems
that 1t was all too brief, and we feel
that we didn't make the most OF it,
and didn't enjoy II as we shoould.
How we would like To do II over
again. It's impossible. we know, but
we can shut our eyes and dream the
poets dream:
Backward, turn backward. o Time
In your flight;
Make me a child again just for to-
night"
But when we say that we don't
mean II literally. IS
What we really mean is. make me
a child again, gifted with the ex-
pcrience and knowledge which we
have picked up in the years of ma
turity, In order that we may realize
the blessings of childhood and make
the 'most of II.
but to be put back as a child
again, with child's mind, child's
troubles, and cropping darkly into
the future-no, we don't want IT.
Wen dream about It. that's all.
