leading manufacturers in this wsec-
tion of the country. This is one of

“ard products among the trade the

its maintenance means the uninter-
rupted continuance of the encour-
agement of all in the community,

commercial and social development
of this part of the country.

admitted by health experts all over
the country that greater attention
paid to plumbing systems by expert
heating and sanitary engineers have
done much to raise the general stan-

The complex construction of the

success and today is the proper
time to fill your bin for this winter.
A great part of everyone's life is
spent in meeting emergencies. Day
and night the average physician is
ready to go and in an unforseen
emergency take up the battle with
the Grim Reaper. In our large cities
and now in our smaller ones, scores
of men whose business it is to be
heroes if possible wait every hour in
the twenty four to meet an emer-
gency with the best of scientific ap-
paratus to fight the red monster—
Fire.
In a smaller way, each one of us
daily meets some emergency or the
other, some unforeseen circumstances
which all the foresight in the world
could mot have anticipated. Meeting
such circumstances is part of the
| very warp and woof of life.
More than one emergency of a
nearly serious nature in this com-
munity has been met by the enter-
prisership of these farseeing coal
dealers. "But for "the fact that they
were able to obtain coal when others
could not, many in this community
might have suffered inconvenience
and even disaster, 3
Of course, they advise those who
can to buy coal in summer; they
realize, however, that there are those
who cannot. ‘And in winter, they are
prepared to meet the needs of those
in;
who could not buy coal when the
suns were warm.
These dealers know the coal mar-
ket as few know ft. In the great
mining centers, in the great distribu-
tion centers from which coal is sent
to all parts of the country, these
dealers’ names are known and pref-
erence is given them. It is given
them because their ‘integrity and
business ability are to be trusted,
and men who can be trusted win.
Their prices are reasonable be-
cause they know the coal market.
Years of study have taught them
when to buy coal so that the cus-
tomer will reap the advantage.
Such business men cannot help
but be respected and admired in a
community. Their - business dealingg
are always above board. They are
known to be reliable. Their advice
on when and how to buy coal is
taken. -And it is given for the ask-
ing.
These well known men have had
wide experience in coal mining and
have devoted a large amount of time
to the study of the geological struc-
ture and formation of coal They
are therefore, in a position to ex-
plain to you the exact and proper
method of firing your furnace. Give
them a’ call, they can show you how
to save money on your coal bills for
this winter.
Furthermore, in providing this
community with . coal, particularly
when it needs coal, they are ren-
dering the community a service of
the highest type. This is simply a
part of their philosophy as business
men and as citizens. They are a
part of the community.
CLASSICAL AVIALON
“Flaming youth takes naturally to
aviation,” said the enthusiast.
“The idea is one of classic beauty,”
said Senator Sorghum. “But we must
persuade our flaming youth to exercise
caution, reminding him of Phaeton,
who drove the chariot of the sun and
set the world on fire; of Icarus, who
flew so high that he melted his waxen
wings; not forgetting the mishap of
our more modern ‘Darius Green and
his flying machine.’ ”
“Then you would discourage avia-
tion?”
“No, sir. But it is agreed that avi-
ation is in its infancy, and infancy de-
mands the most intelligent protection.”

“I am quite aware of that, madam,”

“Then what do you mean by it?”
she gasped.
“Well, madam,” he replied, “you
