WALKER FAMiLY e chain-stor- e chain-stor- one-sto-re tion which benefit the consumer. The single retail store must support a capitalist, a retail merchant, a store manager. The chain with 10(1 stores only Robert Patience, a member of the contracting linn of Patience and Anderson, enticed the Journal editor to the scene of the old Imperial Hall on Smelter Street last week to look over the hew "apartments" recently build there out of the walls, etc., of the old dance hall. Every oplomist as well as every pessimist within Midvale and surrounding territory should take the time to visit this job. Taking the floor and brick walls of the old familiar building that withstood, the dancing strains of many winters and as many summers, this enterprising firm, with the cooperation of other financial interests in Midvale, has modeled eight apartments as good or maybe a little better than anything now existing in Midvale, Each apartment has a living room, a .lining room, a kitchen, a bathroom, clothes closets, etc., with all the necessary built in features. Of course, the floors are hardwood, since the old da ne'e floor was utilized. Duralite was used around the sinks ami in the bathrooms. Spacious cupboards were . provided. Individual coal compartments were provided the base nu nts. Cement sidewalks have been placed around the building and porticos are now being built in front of each apart ment. Stucco waa used to advantage on the outside of the building and the entire project is receiving a c;at of paint at the present time. We do not hesitate in Faying that these apartments are as fine a product as any red blooded American would want to make his home in. Much to the distraction of the pessimists, all of them were rented long ago and there has In en constant pressure brought to bear to get them ready for occupancy. This week the last family will move in and the apartments house will be one hundred per cent o. copied. Anil ain'thcr thing worth noting: very family occupying these premises comes from oul.-id- e of Midvale, hence we have eight more families in Mid-v."- k it Mr. Patience also states with pride that all materal and labor, so fsr as HOLD REUNION ing: "He said retailers were in danger of having their business virtually chain wiped out by huge nation-wide movethe that systems; ment was going forward by leaps and bounds, and that stronger competition was at hand, namely the department store chains."

'There arc individual merchants who are god competitors of chain stores. They know how to buy their goods, how to display them, how to keep their stores clean. Aido from that they do many things the chain does not. They cash their customers' checks, they extend credit, m;ikc deliveries and do other little favors."
