1t recalls also the visit of President Harding to- an

and the graceful and tactul address he made there on
the ability of the two countries to get along together
as independent self respecting friends.
While Secretary Hughes is in the Canadian capi-

"Well, / wish you luck"
So Uncle Wiggily began practic-

FASHION AND DIFFERENTIATION

1t was bad enough for the fur-bearing animals
when women wore furs only in winter but it spelled
their doom, says the National Geographic Society,
when women took to wearing furs all the year around
The society declares that the relentless demand is
threatening with extinction the beaver marten, skunk
muskat and many others which, with normal de-
mand, might long continue to meet genuine human
needs.
1t is matter for keen regret in many ways great
economic resource is being exhausted. Beautiful
specimens of wild life being wipe out, to the in
finite regret of nature-lovers Women themselves, in
a generation or two, may be deprived of furs for
warmth because, in this generation, they have worn
them so wastefully for ornament.

Friedrich Plant on East
Commerce Largest of
Kind in Texas.

There is one concern which is doing
its share to spread the fame Of San
Antonio as an industrial center. That
concern is the Ed Friedrich Company,
which enjoys the distinction of prob
ably being the largest manufacturer of
fixtures and refrigerators in the entire
state. Products of Friedrich not only
have a large local demand but are used
extensively in all parts of the South
west.
A new plant, on which construction
will soon start, will increase the output
fiye-fold and make the concern one of
the largest Of its kind in the country.
Forty Years Here.
Mr.. Friedrich, who entered the man.
ufacturing business here 40 years ago.
believes that, due to climatic and other
favorable manufacturing conditions, fix
lures and refrigeratorS can be pllr-
chased to better advantage in San An
tonic than in most other places, thus
leaving several hundred thousands OF
dollars to be distributed in this city
among other industries.
In the beginning. Mr.. Friedrich man
ufactured store and bar fixtures, refrig-
orators and butchers coolers. Later
billiard and pool tables were added
Then came restaurant fixtures, soda
fountains and drug store supplies. Since
the earliest days, Mr.. Friedrich has
turned out large quantities of butchers
coolers. He has perfected n cooling
counter which is considered one of the
best offered on the American market
This counter is protected by patent No

merit. Mr.. Friedrich says. 1t is SO
constructed as to offer unusual resist.

1t is the opinion Of Mr.. Friedrich
that the bringing of Southwest Texas

friendly relations between the whole,
