The telephone is one of the reasons why our
Bond Bread sales have been growing so fast.
The number of people who order by tele-
phone has increased tremendously, and in
our store we were far-sighted enough to
make capital out of this. .
When housewife telephones and says she
wants certain brand of peaches, or torna-
toes, or salt, or bread-believe me, she gets
that brand, and never any other.
And when the housewife doesn't mention
aparticular brand, we send her thevery best
we have in the store. She may never have
used it before, but she can not say that we
sent her something that wasn't good enough.
AS general rule in our place we fill all
bread orders with Bond Bread unless some
other brand is named.
That's been our rule for long time, and
we have yet to receive our first complaint.
Not all housewives buy Bond Bread, but
we've noticed that those who happen to getit
once, usually order it by name from then on.

Commissioner Lands held that no
right Of return was stipulated when
Milwaukee filed an agreement trans

An initial payment of 5000 was made
by Philadelphia to Milwaukee but
this check was never caShed by the
American Association but was de-
posted to the personal credit Of the
late President Killilea of Milwaukee,

Philadelphia sought to transfer Win

Jonnard was made free agent on
the grounds that in the Milwaukee,

Dropping Mail Sacks
from Planes Is Plan
of Pennsylvania Man

Washington. March 16.-R)-The
tossing of sacks Of mail at the various
cities along the air mail routes from

service. ~.
Representative Kelly. Republican,
Pennsylvania. said today that he has
prepared for introduction 1T the regu-
lar December session Of the new con-
gress q measure which would provide
for such q practice. In his opinion
the distribution Of mail from the fly
ing planes would not only increase
the speed Of delivery of the postal
matter, but would greatly stimulate
the use Of the cir mail.
In his bill, Mr.. Kelly, sponsor Of
the legislation that has created and
developed the air mail, proposes the
placing Of q mail clerk on the plane
to perform this duty. The clerk
would distribute the mail for the diff
ferent cities and towns along the line
Of flight into. bags so that they could
be tossed off the plane as it passed
over the place.

TREASURY SURPLUS
EXPECTED AS Cash
FLOWS DUE TO TAX
Officials Optimistic That $751;
600. 900 Figure Will Be
Exceeded Today

Washington, March 16.-tP)-Al-
though they were unable to measure
exactly the stream Of income tax
payments entering government cof-
fers, treasury officials were optimistic
today that the total for the quarter
ended yesterday would exceed the
$518.OOO,OOO collected on the same
date yesterday and point the way to
q treasury surplus for the year.
The latest official record Of The tax
payments as made public today
showed that the treasury had re-
ceived at the close Of business on
March II, $56, 8O4 $50 as against $751;
419,431 on the same day last year.
The statement for March 15-ordi-
narily the largest single day Of tax
receiving in the year-will not be
made up until later. Even that data
however, may not give ground for
exact estimates Of the government
receipts, since the district collectors
offices over the country. damned as
they are with business, will require
several days to audit and return on
all of their income tax receipts.
II the rate to March II continues
to guide the inflow for the balance
of the month, the treasury may re-
ceive for this quarter as much as
$4,000, 900 more than 1t received last
year in the same quarter and will
find its actual returns from income
taxation this year considerably ahead
of estimates.
Revenues of the government In
other branches are likewise running
satisfactorily this month. Customs
receipts are to date about $1,000 000
ahead of the same month last year
maintaining q trend shown for sever
al months, while the various internal
revenue taxes such as that applying
to tobacco, cigarettes, and other ar.
ticles are doing about the same.
