With Home Town Buying
You live here. You make use of the public benefits of this
city. Then help pay for them—and make it possible to increase
municipal improvements.
You can’t do it by sending your dollars out of town. Every
cent you send away to mail order concerns represents so much dead
loss to the community—and no gain whatever to you on good purchased.
Your dealer sells standard goods of the highest quality—
and sells them at honest prices. Merchandise of greater merit can
not be had for any amount of money—and certainly not for less
money. You can inspect the goods before purchasing—a big advantage
over mail order buying. You can see what you are getting. You can
buy in small quantities if you wish, or you can purchase in large lots
and obtain price concessions granted bulk buyers. The goods you buy are
delivered within a few minutes after purchase is made—right into your home—
and free of delivery costs.
If you are not satisfied with purchases—or desire to
exchange goods for any reason whatever — you may do so quickly ^
and conveniently.
These are a few of the buying advantages to be had
right here at home that can not be offered by any mail order concern
in creation. You benefit yourself—then you benefit the dealer.
You enable him to continue in business. By giving him
bigger business you enable him to give you better bargains.
The profit he makes—a legitimate one—is spent right here
cfhome. Some of it is turned over to other dealers. Some of it goes
for rent. Some of it for clerks’ salaries. Some of it for taxes. It assists in
building up the entire town. It helps advance property values. It contributes
to the betterment of schools—which your children or your neighbors’ children
attend. It helps put down better side-walks—and put up better public build
ings. It pays you actual dividends in development of the town—your town.
It makes the town in which you live a better town for you to live in.
It invites outsiders to settle here. It booms prosperity—and you share in
that prosperity.
It is your plain duty — to yourself — your family your friends
— your town—to spend your dollars with local dealers. Do it.

MASTER OF ROYAL STABLES
ENJOYS WELL EARNED REST
LONDON, Jan. 7.—(AP).—After 31
years’ service as trainer of horses
for the late King Edward VII and
King George V., Richard March,
known as the “Beau Brummel” of
the racing ring, has retired. During
his long experience he handled some
of the English paddock, and achiev
ed many noteworthy successes.
Soon after Marsh’s appointment as
trainer to King Edward, then Prince j
of Wales, in 1893, his horse, Thais, |
won the Thousand Guineas Stakes
for the prince. That same year an
other royal horse, Persimmon, handl
ed by Marsh, won the greatest of
all English races, the Derby, and
subsequently finished ahead of the
field in the St. Leger, Jockey Club
Stakes, Ascot Gold Cup, and Eclipse
Stakes, all classics. Diamond Jubi
lee, another Marsh-handled racer,
won the Thousand Guineas, Derby
and St. Leger, a feat seldom achiev
ed on the turf, and in addition won
other great events, crediting his
royal owner with $165,000 in stakes
before he was sold to a South Amer
ican breeder for $150,000.
Marsh is credited with handling
more Derby and Stewards Cup win
ners than any other trainer.

POWER FROM AIR
CURRENTS UTILIZED
AMSTERDAM, Holland, Jan. 7.—
Director Busiman, of the Dutch Hy
drodynamic institute, believes that
Anton Flettner’s discovery of the
principles by which air currents can
be made to produce heat and energy
will revolutionize the entire fuel in
dustry. In an article which is caus
ing much comment in engineering
circles, he advances the opinion that
when once the Flettner system has
been applied completely, it will be
possible to reduce the world’s con
sumption of coal 90 per cent.

RHINELANDER'S WIFE ASKS
COURT FOR $350 MONTH
WHITE PLAINS, N. Y., Jan. 6.—
Counsel for Alice Jones Rhine
lander today sought before Supreme
f Justice Tomkins, $350 a montl
temporary alimony for their clients,
pending trial of the suit brought by
her husband, Leonard Kip Rhine
lander, to annul their marriage of
last October 14.
The annulment suit is based on
charges that young Mrs. Rhine
lander and her parents fraudulently
represented her to be of white
blood, whereas she was part negro.
The young wife’s attorneys said
that although Rhinelander already
possessed $580,000 in property and
was prospective heir to some mil
lions, his income was only $18,000
a year, of which he spent $3,000.
Counsel for Rhinelander protested
that $200 a month would be ample
alimony.
During the hearing, which closed
with a decision reserved, Rhineland
er’s attorneys declared he had not
lived with his wife since November
20th, 1924.
