The song I have wrote. Joe, Is known
by the tltje of tho toltowln'. "I Cannot
Ivad a uuy wnicn no " .u.
Union Card l" It goes like thus:
X couple of young gently lovers
Was softly stttuv on a bench
WhUst honest workln' men rolled by In

The girl glared at her steady, a shabby
And as"the moon begin to sink, hor swcot

I'd like to grant your slight request and
Join you aa your wife.
But I'd be afraid I'd have to bust my
For as you was about to kiss me they
might call me out on str ke,

tt got nothln' else against you and I
know this must be hard.
But I cannot wed a guy which has no
lovefa' union card!
Well, there's that, Joe, and I am
workin' on extry verses now aa you can
see that It Is not only a remarkable pleco
of poetry, but is likewise bollln' over
with sentiment and is a3 timely ns snow
at Christmas You know they Is all
kinds of unions now. and Btrlkes Is as
plentiful as blondes with light hair, so
I havo no doubt that this song will soon
be sweepln' the country and should net

I read It to the guy which directed our
movtn' picture, Joe, and he hadn't the
lightest hesitation -In awnrdln' It the
brown derby as a song. He 1b a guy
which ain't easy-'affected, yet st II and

should bo moro lenient, If It can be con

This rather unusually romance I am

They Builded Well!
More tfian a third of a century ago there were opened a few scattered
grocery stores by men who had a vision. These men believed that the puoiic woum
not only appreciate but would reward service honestly and conscientiously done.
These men also believed that the plan of Producer-to-Consumer was the best
way of conducting a grocery business, because it permitted selling the public tne
best goods at the lowest prices.
That these men builded well is proved in the fact that from those first few
stores arose what is today tho American Stores Company, Our growth is merely
a visible expression of your approval, and with this in mind, we are continuing in
our purpose of giving you
The MOST'of the BEST 'for the LEAST!
