According to information gained

is at least one of our local Indus
tries which is about to close a very
prosperous year. This Is the Ilones

facturers of Men's, Youths' and
Boy's Shoes of all kinds. Wo under
stand that the volume of business
done In 1912 was over one-third
greater than that of 1911, and the
fact that one of their salesmen, Chas
Bushwaller, last week made a new
record for weekly sales of several
hundred dollars greater than tho
previous one, shows that their busi
ness Is still on the gain, and Decem
ber is one of tho hardest months In
tho year for tho manufacturer to
sell shoes.

applicants for tho position, but tho

mit of no argument that he received

trical engines and a sound knowl
edge of all tho operations of sta
