WIN. FRIEDLEIN
"PiOneer Timer & Plumber

commercial world bows down today.

mands that one must be an expert

edge of approximately forty years
experience in his line of work in

tion of the more important work in
his line in this city. He did the ORR

Mr.. Friedlein states that the resid-

That no one line of business tests
the metal of man to greater >ex-
tent than the contracting line as it is

by mortality statistics affecting these

OF depression. 1t is a trying game"
and one in which the old law sur
vival of the fittest" governs the elm
ination process. And, the individual
in this line of business who buffets
the competition of rival concerns and
maintains steadily improved service
