rdk butter and other commo¬
dities for human food, as well
as the bulk of our grain and
ivesiock feed-stuffs through

But "most of these provis¬

easily and cheaply grown up¬
on our ov/n soil by our ov/n
‘arrners, and processed in our
own neighborhoods, and by a
nore plentiful use thereof we
could materially help enhance
he income and increase the
wealth of our whole people."
For these reasons, Amall set
aside the "Georgia Products

oeriod civic, patriotic and lun-

GRAND RAPIDS, MICH.—I have
’ust seen a wonderful new furai-
ure idea. This new idea is furni¬
ture made up of “units” so that
veu can have your furniture exact¬
ly to fit your personal needs. It
i ■ n’t sectional furniture. It’s a new
“iloxi-unit” idea.
For instance, suppose you want
a secretary cabinet for your living
loom. Do you want drawers (nar¬
row vith or doors) deep) or cupboards (open or
for the bottom part?
Do you want a desk unit—or would
you prefer a built-in radio-phono¬
graph with place for records—or
more drawers or glass front cup¬
board ?
1 have seen how with these
“fiexi-units” furniture, all one solid
piece, beautifully finished, can be
made up exactly as you want it—
for your needs — personally, indi-'
vidually for you, just you.
• This revolutionary, modern idea
has been worked out for dining
room And, and.bedrooms, too.
if you have just a small
home, or live in an apartment, you
can start with just a few “units,”
adding more later, as you move in-
.o a larger place or as your fam¬
ily grows. v
Q: Why is the United States Brewers Foundation
necessary?
A: In any business there are certain dealers who may
not always operate in keeping with the standards
of the industry or with the dictates of public opin¬
ion. The Foundation undertakes the responsibility
of maintaining proper conditions where malt bev¬
erages are sold.
Q: How does the Foundation operate?
A: Trained field men regularly visit places where beer
and ale are sold. In those few places where undesira¬
ble conditions are found, dealers are asked to cor¬
rect them. Most dealers cooperate, but should they
not, a report is made to authorities who have the
power to revoke their licenses.
Q: Can the general public help in your work?
A: Yes, by patronizing reputable places, and by report¬
ing to the Foundation any that need correction.
