new HOWELL Hotel FURNISHED
: : THROUGHOUT BY THE STANDARD
FURNITURE CO., LOCAL FIRM

Furnishings for the new Howell
Hotel, which is to occupy the two
upper floors of the new WinsloW
Mail building, and which, incident
ally, is to be one of the most mod
ern and most beautifully furnished
hotels of any in the state, were
furnished complete by The Stand
ard Furniture company Of WinsloW,
Not only the furniture, but drapes,
carpets, small fixtures and Incl
dental accessories, and even linens
were furnished Mrs Howell by this
Winslow house.
In obtaining the contract for the
interior decorating Of the new ho-
tel, Mr.. V. H. Driver of the Stand
ard, has added a new chapter to
an eleven year career in WinSloW
which has been increasinly success
full as the years have passed.
q Mr.. Drivers business career in
this city is almost a. fit subject for
a novel, for while it has not been
tictionally meteoric, it has been
constantly on the upgrade. He
originally began here as the pro-
prietor Of a small bottling works,
and his holdings have increased un-
til now he owns a bOttling estab-
lishment that does an extensive
business in three counties, and a
.fiourishing furniture business that
is equally we'll known.
This has been accomplished by
adherence to a policy of handling
high grade line of merchandise at
moderate prices, and delivering at
all times service equal to the
merchandise
Reviewing Mr.. Drivers business
life in WinSlow will furnish laugh
or two, in comparing a few details
OF the original Driver establish
ment with the present business.
1t is reported that when Mr..
Driver came here from Monte Wis
ta, Colorado, and started his bot
tling works, canny business nlen
predicted that the business would
he short lived, and in fact only al
lowed Mr.. Driver some sixty days
to go under" The first Standard
Bottling Works was housed in a
small room in the rear of the Ideal
Laundry, and deliveries were then
made by Mr.. Driver himself. using
a push cart as a conveyance. The
business quickly outgrew that To-
cation, however, and far from dy-
ing, it has grown to where it draws
business from a large clientel9 in
Navajo, Apache and Coconino coun-
ties.
= After only five months in his first
location, Mr.. Driver removed his
soda water factory to its present
location. At that time the build
ing drented for the exorbitant sun
of $1,000 per month, which was
considered almost a ruinous price.
The expension Of the soda busi-

.bRICkNASON ON
MAIL BUILDING.
HAS FINE RECORD.
Of ACHIEVEMENT.

When one man can point to a
city the size of Winslow and truth
! fully state that he has built or
helped to build more than eighty
per cent of all brick OF stone bust
ness buildings here and most of
the brick or stone homes, it stands
to reason that he is pioneer build
er, and not only that, but one who
has earned the confidence of those
who have homes and stores to build.
Such a man is Bob" Fenton, and
that is his record. Mr.. Fenton is
responsible for every inch of con-
crete, and every brick in the new
Winslow Mail building, for all this
work was done under his PERSONAL
supervision, and much by his own
hands.
This three stories of brick and
concrete is worthy to stand as a
climax to this much of Fenton's
career here as a builder. OF high
( class fire-proof construction, made
Of the best materials, welded to-
gether by the most expert hands
that could be found, it takes high
rank among the business build
ings Of Northern Arizona.
Maybe no records were broken
in the time used for laying the
foundation, the brick walls and the
floor, but the construction was
speedy enough, and there was no
delay on account of labor. Several
times, through unfortunate acci-
dents at the brick factory, the work
tagged from lack of material, and
once is was necessary to borrow
bricks from another building under
construction, but as long as there
were bricks to lay, Fenton has been
on the job.
His career covers more years
than it is fair to tell Practically
tWo-thirds of his long life has been
spent in and around Winslow, fol-
lowing his trade of brickmason and
stonemason.
Besides laying brick and stone
with the ability and craftsmanship
OF master, Mr.. Fenton is a stone
cutter, and for some time had
sandstone quarry near Winslow.
