compromise, which includes q $14,-
900 900 fixed contribution from the
Federal Government to the District
revenues as an alternative to the

Senator Mcclellan offered his s.

it will be voted upon today when
the appropriations for the Public

The Senate has added $4.564, 1922

Tom Good. One Of Youngest,
Executives in Chain, Had
Meteoric Rise to Success

Tom Good, district manager of the
Piggy Wiggly stores, Inc, In Wash
tngton, has been promoted and will
leave the National Capital within the
next day or two to take a. position In
Cleveland. Ohio. 1911
While the story Of Piggly WiggIy's
rapid ascendency to fame is q Ila-
tionaI business romance, no chapter
in it is any brighter than the me-
teoric rise of Tom. Good, whose
whole-hearted devotion to duty and
thorough knowledge of the business
has won him succession of eleva-
tions in the organization.
Before the first Piggy Wiggly
store was organized he worked as an
GRAND and office boy in the whole
fale grocery establishment Of Saund-
ers.Blackburn & Co.,. in Memphis,
Tenn. for $3.50 a week. Here his
business qualities were observed by
Clarence Saunders, founder Of the
Piggy Wiggly system, who placed
him in a responsible position in that
organization when the first store
was opened in 1916.
Goods Rapid Rise.
Good showed such a thorough
knowledge Of the details Of the bust.
ness and became so much imbued
with the spirit and vision of the
wizard Saunders that he was socn
promoted to the position Of district
manager in Cairo. u. Within seven
years he was promoted ten times,
and sent to as many different cities
to put Piggy Wiggly over. That he
succeeded is best attested by the fact
that each succeeding position he
holds il bigger and better.
Among the cities in which Piggy
Wiggly is firmly established and
doing a profitable business are
Nashville, Tenn, Cincinnati, Ohio,
New Orleans, La. Atlanta, Ga. In
dianapolis, Elwood and Terre
Haute, Ind, Columbus, Dayton.
Hamilton, Toledo and Lima. Ohio.
Tom Good served as district man
ager in each OF them and estab-
lished an enviable record for bust
ness volume and store expansion.
Later he was made senior district
manager of the Piggy Wiggly sys-
TEN in Indiana and Ohio, a position
in which he again distinguished
himself.
Came Here In 1928.
Mr.. Good came to Washington
as district manager in November,
1928. Under his direction. the
number of Piggly Stores was in
creased, the popularity Of the self
service system was immensely
stimulated, and the merchandising
scope OF the stores was broadened.
He added fresh meat and vegetable
stands to many Of the local Piggy
Wiggly stores, thus meeting popu-
lar demands in various neighbor-
hoods. Mr.. Good inaugurated a
vigorous advertising campaign in
Washington and recently observed
the Piggy Wiggly Stores fourth
anniversary in Washington by con-
Quoting a tremendous sales pro-
motion campaign in which he pub
lished in The Washington Times,
one Of the biggest grocery store
advertising sections ever seen in
the east.
Mr.. Good leaves Washington to
become district manager and have
complete charge of the Piggy
Wiggly Stores operated by the
Missouri Illinois Stores Company,
under franchise from the parent
company. He is just thirty-one
years Of age, and Is one OF the
youngest executives in the entire
Piggy Wiggly organization.

DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
~ Who should wait on the
bride when there are two brides
maids and a maid Of honor?
When the bridal party is re-
turning from the altar with
whom should they best man
walk? MARY.
DO not understand what you
L mean by this question. Do
you mean who Is given the place
Of honor in the professional?
The maid of honor walks ahead
Of the bride, which is the place
of honor. The bridesmaids walk
together, in front Of the maid of
honor. The maid of honor ad-
tusts the train of the bride when
the bride turns from the altar
for the occasional. The maid Of
honor also holds the brides bou-
quet during the ceremony.
It is, think, better form for
the best man not to bA included
in the occasional. When he is
included in the occasional, he
walks with the maid of honor,
but this, think, takes away from
the Importance of the bride and
groom ~ and gives somewhat an
effect Of a double wedding. Usu.

And If we don't see a chimpanzee

laughed to myself at Bunny.
But late that afternoon I laughed
harder, for just az we were about
to retrace our steps through the
jungle and go back to camp,
Bunny came scampering up and
whispered:

over our shoulders and started

I was so afraid might miss
something. For here was a
sight which is rarely seen, even
by the natives. Mr.. and Mrs.
Chimpanzee were making a bed.
This is the way they did It:
First, Mr. Chimpanzee would
bend and sometimes break a
branch Of the tree and pull it
down over to another branch.
Then Mrs. Chimpanzee would tic
