ll h fiiiH that this city should iniiko
boiihi provision for such an outer-
thai was not placed there, according
tc ono of our responsible nnd rellablo
Luslness men, nnd then tho material
used did not como up to tho standard
called for In tho specifications In
different parts of tho building. This
In something that should bo fore
stalled and eliminated In regard to
these now structures. It Is very
enby for outsldo parties to bid lower
than tho local contractors can do
when they havo an architect In co-
hoots with them and who is willing
to O. K. anything tho contractor
dueti. An r.rchlteot who Is proud of
hla irp.itnllon and who 1b anxious to
mnltn good ut nil times Is tho only
kind that should bo secured. Wo
trust that local enlorprlso will so
euro tht! contract, and tho money
paid for samo remain In St. Johns.

MOTHERS' MEETINO.
Tho W, C. T. U, Mothers' meeting
met at Mrs. Lours Monday after
noon Mru. Kerr was very much on
(it'll aged as thero wero an unusual
number of tho mothers there, Tho
piogiiim was fine and well carried
out, Ictding to u good discussion of
tho topic. Tho thought thnt Impress
ed i.b most was that mothers often
lebo tho confidence of their children
liy being too busy or too old to en
ter Into tho reelings or their children,
and at last tho children ft ml some
one else, and tho mother sees It
whon It Is too late. I think It Is al
so so with some fathers and their
sons. Puttiers, If your boys want to
do something they ought not to do,
Interest thorn In some c-ther way, It
will take time, but It will pay,

DID YOU?
f
Did vou ever ko to Portland ntid
while there decide to buy a little
meat? And did you open it up
when you returned home nnd found
that it was not what you believed
it to be when you made the pur
chase? In fact, did it not become
nccessarv to throw nil or a portion
ot it out before it was eaten? Was
it not stnle. diseased lookitiK and
emitting n bad odor? If this has
not been your experience it has
been that of others. In several
cases Portland butchers have been
hauled up before a magistrate for
selling infected meats. Did you
ever know that to be the case in
St. Johns? Better be sure the
meat you use is GOOD in every
sense of the wdrd. Better for your
self, better for your family. That
is the only kind that can ever be
found at
