D INSTALLS
LIGHT FIXTURES
OF RARE RESIGN
The electrical fixtures of the Grand
Lafe have been supplied by the Walk
rfr eCtrlc company of this city. In
figuring on the lighting arrangements
ior the new cafe, the management was
Particularly desirous that something
apoye the ordinary fixtures be in
stalled. To this end the Walker com
pany secured an indiTect lighting ar--IIge.ment
wnich gives a maximum
or-hwfvdiffused light and at the same
time is Tiharmony with the decorative
effects of the entire interior.
,.,The equipment of an up to date cafe
like the Grand naturally calls for con
siderable electrical equipment, among
which the most important is the dish
washer The electrical dish washer
installed by the Walker company, is
Quite the latest design obtainable.
The machine thoroughly sterilizes the
dishes.
Another feature of the Grand which
has been installed by the Walker com
pany is the exhaust fan which com
pletely changes the air in the rooms
every thirty minutes. It is impossible
tor the air in the cafe to become stuffy,
there will always be an ever incoming
supply of fresh pure air for the pat
rons of the grand.
The Walker Electric Company has
m addition to equipping the Grand
Care, completed several other import
ant Jobs in Arizona. The entire Gold
water store was re-wired by them, and
the electdictl work at the Northern Ari
zona Normal School, and at the state
Industrial school was from their shop.

1 COMPLETION OF
GENERAL
CONTRACT
Tom L. Weatherford has been the
man behind the main guns in the cre
ating of the Grand Cafe. As general
contractor for the remodeling of the
entire building in which the Grand is
located, Weatherford has been busy
for three months with a large force of
men creating a modern up to date
restaurant room.
To this end it was necessary to put
on an entire new roof, lay a new floor
and put new plaster on the entire
building.
In addition to this the Interior ar
rangements have practically been re
created. The place fs in no manner
the same as it was before Weatherford
and his men took hold. It has been a
tremendous Job and one which has
taxed the resources of the Weather
ford organization considerably, but
they have succeeded in getting away
with it in admirable fashion.
Tom Weatherford is one of the best
known young business men of the city.
He has been in the past city inspector
of buildings, leaving that important
position to go into the geenral con
tracting business. Since his entry fnto
that line of endeavor he has been
eminently successful, havig completed
several very important jobs in this
city among which is the Grand.
HIGHEST GRADE- OF
SHEET METAL WDRK
DOPJE ST iW CAFE
In every modern cafe tliere is a great
amount of sheet metal work to be done.
Especially in the kitchens and adja
cent rooms is it necessary that this
work be of the best quality. The Fast
End Radiator and Sheet Metal Works
having been doing this kind of work in
Phoenix for the past eight years was
called into consultation' as soon as it
was decided to create' the Grand.
C. K. Sewton, who is the head of the
East End Radiator and Sheet Metal
Work, stated yesterday that there has
never been a more complete job of
sheet metal work finished in Phoenix.
It was their intention throughout to use
only the best material and send their
best workmen to the job. They real
ized that in an institution as com
pletely equipped as the Grand it was
necessary that everything else be in
harmony, and to this end nothing was
left undone to make the job complete.
o
ARTISTIC INTERIOR
DECORATION WORK
H
OF LOCAL CO!
The entire interior decorating scheme
of the new Grand Cafe was created by
the Kirchefer Decorating company uf
this city. It has long been an axiom
in Arizona that when something beau
tiful was to be created the Kirchefer
Decorating- company was quite the
proper place to seek. In fitting up the
Grand in its elaborate style It was
only natural that the management
turned the entire matter over to
Kirchefer.
The color scheme which is of the
most harmonious type is a product of
Mr. Kirchefer's genius. He planned
the entire effect and so successful has
he been in putting hfs theories into
practice that extravagant comment on
the result is quite the most ordinary
thing heard from visitors to the Grand.
Included in the general scheme are
six panel scenes painted on the walls.
The pieces which are executed in a
manner quite above the ordinary de
corations, represent - the Roosevelt
Dam, a scene on the Columbia river
one in Switzerland and several from
Maine.
The large tapestry panels which oc
cupy the major portion of the walls
are an idea of Mr. Kirchefer's. They
tendto create an impression of rich
ness m the main room of the Cafe, and
set off the pafntings which border
them in a highly desirable manner.

WRONG AGAIN
"Now, just listen to our new neigh
bor talking to her baby," said Mr. Dub
waite, who was sitting by an open
window of his apartment. "That's what
I call mother 'love.'
"You ought to see her 'baby, " re
plied Mrs. Dubwaite, with a sniff.
"That 'ittsy, pittsy, pecious' she's rav
ing about runs around on four legs."

PHOENIX BAKERY
TO SUPPLY ALL
FRENCH PASTRY
The Phoenix Bakery is one of the
bakeries selected by the Grand Cafe
to supply it with bread and pastry.
All sorts of pastry including French
pastry and eclairs will he supplied to
the Grand by the Phoenix Hakery. The
special French rolls which will be
served for breakfast at the Grand will
come from the ovens of the Phoenix
bakery hot and fresh every morn.'ng.
The phoenix Bakery has been one
of the leading institutions of its kind
in Phoenix for a good many years.
They have built up a large business on
a thoroughly modern policy and their
large list of patrons will be pleased to
know that their products are to be
found at the Grand.
BARKER'S BAKERY
WILL SERVE CAFE
S
In the days of yore when the Grand
Cafe was known as the St. Frances,
one of the big features of the latter
cafe, was the excellence of its bread
and pastry. Frequently comment was
made on those products and many
times inquiry was made as to what
bakery produced them. The answer
always was "Barker's Bakery."
Again Barker's Bakery will help fur
nish products from their ovens. The
management of the Grand realizing
the qualities of the delicacies coming
from the Barker Bakery have taken
steps to provi'de for an adequate sup
ply at all times.
The Barker Bakery is one of the
most modern institutions of its kind in
the west. The plant from which the
famous Barker Bread is issued is san
itary to an extreme and every precau
tion is taken to keep it that way.
o
H 0 T
BEEF TO BE USED
The policy of the management nf the
new Grand Cafe which will open if
doors to the ptiblic this morning: will
be to buy the best of everything. In
asmuch as nothing is more undesirable
than poor meat, they have taken ex
treme pains to insure a wholesome
supply of first class fresh beef.
The Phoeni'x Wholesale Meat com
pany will be the source from which the
Grand will secure its beef. Only steer
beef which has passed certain specifi
cations will be used by the Grand.

SUCLi IP
Rochester woman complains be
cause her husband "makes such a
racket when he drinks soup."
Last time he imitated a boiler fac
tory getting on the outside of a bowl
of soup his better half beaned him
with a rolling pin.
Naturally enough the injured hus
band called on the police court judge.
Called because a cop handcuffed to
him was going that way. For aftei
meeting that rolling pin the loving
husband walloped his wife on the eye
both eyes, to be accurate, and she
yelled for the copper taking a snooze
under the shade tree only a block
away,
"Judge, yeronner," she said, 'it
makes me sick just to see that man
eat, and seeing him isn't the worse;
it's hearing of him eating that maTies
me incapable of resisting the longing
to hit him."
There are other people who just
can't stand this or that thing.
F'rinstance
"It makes me fighting mad to see a
blind pig," asserted the well-known
Pussyfoot Johnson.
And according to a truthful histor
ian the famous Marshal d'Albert would
faint at the sight of a pig, not one of
the blind variety, but just an ordinary
hoglet.
Henry III, who boasted that he
wasn't afraid of man or devil, would
ftint when he saw a cat.
' Which inspired Bill Shakespeare to
jot down a line or 2 to this effect:
Some men there be olve not a gaping
pifr.
Some that are mad If they behold a
cat.
Queen Anne abhorred the smell of
roses, and King Vladislas sickened at
the smell of apples.
And Squire Abner Harpington kicks
up a fuss every time his wife cooks
cabbage in the house.
Doctor Pillsan Powders calls our at
tention to the fact that all animals
dislike the castor oil plant. But none
of 'em dislike the product any more
thnn the little boy.
Hiram Johnson gets dizzy when you
mention League of Nations in his near
vicinity. And W. Wilson has a re
lapse when somebody says Reserva
tion within his hearing'.
The ringing of a school bell in the
early part of the day has been kriown
to make many a boy deathly ill.
The calling of a bill collector at the
front door often brings about the sil
ence of the grave throughout the en
tire house.
But, believe you me. nothing makes
a married woman half as angry as to
have her old man s;iy. "What another
new hat? I thought you bought one
only a year ago last summer."

LEGION OF HONOR FOR A COOK

TILE FLOOR LENDS
RICH COLORING TO
CIFE'S INTERIOR
The floors of the Grand Cafe are tile
throughout. Believing in the policy of
putting down something which will
stay and never need repairs, the man
agement of the Grand early decided
that it would be best to install tile
floors. James N. Petty of this city, in
stalled all of the flooring, and like
wise placed the tile around the iront
of the building, lending to ft a rich
ness of appearance which could not
be gained with other kinds of decora
tions. Tile fronts for buildings are the
coming thing according to Mr. Petty
who is thoroughly conversant with the
manner i'n which modern buildings are
being put up. There are inumerable
colors and designs from which to pick
and the beauty of the whole thing from
the standpoint of the economical man
is that the first cost is the only cost.
There is never need for repairs or
painting, the tile stays and according
to Mr. Petty there is no argument to
the contrary.
Mr. Petty is carrying a large stock of
tile on hand and is in a position to do
that kind of work on short notice.
U GAEE INSTALLS
L
IT
The entire plumbing of the Grand
Cafe is new. Of course the old plumb
ing was serviceable and all of that,
but in order that the latest style of
sanitary plumbing might be installed,
it was decided to tear out all of the
old pipes and put in new.
S. C. Lovett was the plumber se
lected to do the work. Mr. Lovett has
been in busfness in Phoenix for the
past eight years and during that time
has installed plumbing in some of the
largest and best known buildings in
the city. In addition to installing the
plumbing in the Grand Cafe, which in
these days of rigid inspections is a
rather particular job, Lovett piped the
cafe for gas and lights.
Mr. Lovett's passion is sanitary
plumbing. He has a thorough knowl
edge of how modern plumbing should
be installed and is always ready to
advise prospective builders on their
plumbing needs, regardless of whether
he installs the work.
HISTORICAL OAK TREE FALLS
EASTOX, Md. One of Talbot coun
ty's historical trees was destroyed by
storm recently. The large white oak
in the rear of the brick meeting house
of the Society of Friends, known as
Third Haven meeting house, was up
rooted and fell with a crash. The tree
made kindling wood of fifty feet of
shedding where the Friends were wont
to hitch their horses and teams, when
attending service. This tree was one
of the original grove under which
William Penn of Philadelphia preached
when touring Maryland, and where
Lord Baltimore one time worshipped.
A tree like this fell five years ago and
about five years previous to that one
other fell. Exchange.

THE DIFFERENCE
Willie Paw, what is the difference
between an engaged girl and a married
woman?
Maw A married woman personally
attends to the work of putting on her
rubbers, my son.
Paw Willie, you keep your mouth
shut. Exchange.
BOI TBI AIMS TO
SUPPLY BEST MEAT
The Bon Ton market will be one of
the sources of supply for the Grand
Cafe. Following their policy of pur
chasing only the best of everything to
eat found on the local market, the
management of the Grand will secure
a large part of its meat supply from
the Bon Ton market.
The meat which the Bon Ton will
supply the Grand will be of the best
grade obtainable and will have to an
swer certain specifications before it
will be accepted. The Bon Ton does
not anticipate any trouble on this
though, as it has always been their
aim and ambition to supply only the
best food stuffs to be secured.
War department records show that
the first "American Legion" was
founded in 1792, following the Revo
lutionary War, and its existence by
that name terminated in 1796. The
American "Legion" was commanded
by General (Mad) Anthony Wayne.
