pOrtance of the Hafer Sheet

resident since 1925.
Hafer House KoOlers are the
primary product of the sheet
metal concern which was
started April Is, 1880, and
which has grown in size and
importance continuously since
then. 1t was one of the first
companies to start manufac-
turing desert coolers when the
efficiency of that type of cool
er became apparent in the
valley.
The motto adopted for the
iiafer House Kooler is, ITS

With the aid of Gov. John w.
Bricker, the weatherman, the Ohio
river, and maybe Mr.. Hartnett's
Chicago ball whackers, Cincinnati's
Reds will start after a new National!
league pennant tomorrow.
Governor Bricker used to catch
the slants of George Trautmal,
president of the American associa-
ton, in the best battery Ohio State
university ever had. The governor
will sit right next to the Reds dug
out and if he forgets to yell 350,0 600
votes may be shot.
The weatherman is making no
promises offhand, though there are
furtive indications that it will be
warm enough to permit taking off
evel ything down to parkas and bear
skin mittens. Both Paul Derringer
and General Bill Lee, the likely
pitchers, r veterans enough to
throw in any weather.
