FITZGERALD WASTE
AND METAL COMPANY

One of the most impressive lessons
taught by the world war, was that
which we call conservation land which
touches every phase of life, the econo-
my of time and resources in the indust-
rial world, thrift of the individual and
something a little newer and quite
valuable, the saving of waste of all
kinds to be reconverted into disable
material again.
This caused what we commonly call
junk to assume a value hitherto TN
known, so that even little children be-
came collectors of odds and ends of
things and every where people were
urged to watch the waste and save the
junk as serving a definite use and even
patriotic purpose.
The lesson taught by the war has
opened the eyes of the people to the
fact that collecting this former waste
in systematic way and sending it to
proper centers for asserting and re-
converting into new and useful
forms, is business of unlimited mag
nitude and of positive importance.
Mr.. ]. Kassewitz who engaged in
this business during the war period,
sees in it at the present time a legiti-
mate and lucrative pursuit and with
his past experience to aid him, has
reentered the business, conducting it on
the wholesale scale, buying and selling
in car load lots and under the name OF
the Fitzgerald Waste and Metal Co.,
with office and warehouse at lis N.
Grant street, telephone 233, is applying
himself with his we'll known zeal and
capability to his old and his new under
taking.

Casl Hunt of New York, Secretary
OF the Associated Advertising Clubs
of the World, gave the editors a new
light on the value of newspaper space
and its Importance in the develop

part was:
Mr.. Hunts Address.
Advertising is selling and selling
is, after all, extremely simple Sell
ing is process of \ showing the
other fellow what your goods or your
services will do for, him, said Mr..
Hunt.
The catalogs of these mail order
houses, wherein sailed salmon is not
advertised by the commonplace name
but is spoken of as Steaming Hot
Breakfast Novelty, is art in advertis-
ing and means greater development
of this branch of the science.
If you want to sell product, first
tell of the disadvantages, was the
view expressed by Carl Hunt, man
ager of the Associated Advertising
Clubs of the World, to the editors
this morning.
Science in advertising and in the
driving home to people some one
feature they are looking for in a GER
tainty commodity is essential in max
ing great business. Mr.. Hunt
cited as an example the mail order
houses in Chicago.
l have hired many statesmen; 1
have handled statesmen; in the ad-
vertising- selling service agency bust
ness, 1 have trained statesmen for
other hrms, and the further | have
gone, the simpler have l found the
selling processes to be, Mr.. Hunt
continued.
Give me a man who likes other
people-who is genuinely interested
in them and their problems, and
can rapidly make sales
man of him; and, on the
other hand the spoiled type
of person extremely selfish and big
oted, of equal intelligence, cannot
and will not make as good sales
man.
The generous type of individual
sees the other fellows side of the
story. He describes the goods in
terms of their use to the fellow
whom he is selling, whether he is

KRATZER'S BAKERY THE
HOME OF FAMILY LOAF.
What has become of the old fash
toned lady who baked her own bread?
The answer is simple enough. Instead
OF, going through all the drudgery of
bending over hot stove, mixing
dough, the careful watching required,
and cleaning up the 'muss', she now
steps to the phone and orders the IA
nous Family Loaf made in the clean
modern Kratzer's Bakery.
This~popular brand of bread has be-
come standard of quality in this vi
cinity. No other brand meets with the
universal satisfaction as this pure,
wholesome loaf. And that is why the
bakery of Mr.. Kratzer is kept so busy.
Whei5 Mr.. Kratzer started in the
bakery business here many, many
years ago, he did so with the idea of
what people wanted in the line of
good baked goods. He has labored
long in fulfilling these wants, and to-
day he is reaping the benefits. His
bakery stands for good things to eat,
the best in Fitzgerald. The famous
brand of Family Loaf tastes like the
good old bread mother fused to make
and you'll find it on sale in all the
leading stores in the county. Mr.. Krat-
zer's baked goods are also known thru
out this section for their goodness.
Every day they bake whole wheat
bread.
Everything sold at Kratzer's Bak-
cry is of the best and we believe you
are missing something god if you
are not regular customer of Mr.
Kratzer.

Merchants Here Leading Low Prices
---Survey Shows Fitzgerald Better
Equipped Than Ever to Look
After Your Wants

Fitzgerald again takes the lead over
her neighboring cities as the trading
center in this section of Georgia. This
year more than ever before has trade
from the outlying terriotory increased.
The advent of good roads, of bargain
days, of larger stocks, of brighter
stores and better service have been
telt by the business houses here.
And more and more are efforts be-
ing MAIZE by our business men to keep
this trade on the increase. They are
making prices more attractive, are
putting in larger and more up-to-date
lines, and are offering to the buyer
service unequalled before. The latest
move on the part of the business pla-
ces here is to meet or even beat prices
OF outside competition wherever DOS
slble: And in most every case the
careful buyer has found that by buy-
ing at home, he is not only getting
things for the same money or less.
but is getting the personal service of
the business men and that shopping
is really made pleasure here.
It is our sincere belief that Fitzger-
aid possesses every requirement to
fill the wants of all the people in this
section and we trust the following pre-
sentation of the business places here
will merit the careful consideration of
those who live within this trading ra-
qdius
Make Fitzgerald your trading CEN
ter. Meet the business men. Ask them
to give you prices and compare them
without outsiders. You'll find it pays
to trade here

Mr.. AND MRS. FRANK KEEFE
AND FRANK j. HANLEY
WILL LIVE IN KINGMAN

Frank Keeffe, general merchandis-
er for the Babbitt stores system, will
leave shortly after the first of April
for Kingman, to take charge of the
Kingman store, in which he has ac-
quired a substantial interest. Frank
J. Hanley, Of the mercantile depart
ment in the Babbitt general offices
here, will go with him, to have charge
of the accounting.
This is not good news for Flagstaff
people, even though it does indicate
advancement for both Of these young
men, because Flagstaff does not want
to lose men of that calibre. And the
ladies regret exceedingly to have Mrs.
Keeffe leave. Both Mr.. and Mrs,
Keeffe have become very much at
tached to Flagstaff during their two
years residence here and keenly feel
the necessity of going away, although
they are fond of Kingman, through
past residence there. AS for Mr.. Han
ley, he has become a part of Flagstaff
in the years he has been here, and
will leave niche hard to fill.
The Keeffes have disposed of their
home in the northwest part of town
to Mr.. and Mrs. Ernest Lennon, who
used to rent it from John Zalaha un-
til the latter sold it to Mr.. Keeffe.

churches, but of interest to all Scot

WANTS ART GALLERY
AT GRAND CANYON

v. o. Wallingford, supervising arch
itect of Flagstaff's new high school
building, who is an artist of note and
who is especially interested in Grand
Canyon, where he has done great
deal of landscape painting, told a rep
resentative of The Sun on Tuesday
that he believes a big art gallery
should be established at Grand Can
yon.
Mr.. Wallingford has talked of this
with many people and has discussed it
before several organizations, and has
met with general encouragement. de
says that this section of the country,
being mecca for artists from all ov-
er America and for many from other
parts of the world, coupled with the
fact that many thousands of people
annually visit Grand Canyon, would
unite to make such gallery a sue
cess. He believes it would result in
more artists coming here and in very
many of them, particularly landscape
artists. making complete exhibitions
of their works at the Canyon. He
feels that it would afford the artists
splendid market-place and other
visitors to the canyon something addl-
tional worth while to see while they
are there.
Mr.. Wellington believes that when
the matter has been fully considered
by people in this state some means
will be found for building such gal
lery, whethA by popular subscription
or otherwise.
