SANITARY SODA
STANDS POPULAR
Public Demands Latest and
Best Fountain Equipment.
Probably In no line of drug store and
confectionery store equipment has there
been greater improvement In the last few
years than In soda fountains, according
to J. R. Sentney, 222 South Meridian
street, local' distriubtor for the Wal
rus soda fountain.
"Less than half a generation ago the
soda fountain was a cumbersome affair,"
Mr. Sautney said. “It was awkward,
cumberaome, Improperly designed, abso
|. . Wfr" /
J. R. SENTNEY.
lntly Impossible to keep clean and sani
tary, and many of the old-time affairs
were actually a menace to publi't hcallh.
“Then came the age of scientific im
provements in fountains, and I think the
climax has been reached in the Walrus,
which 1 believe is the only absolutely
leak-proof fountain on the market. It
has many improvements over other
makes, as. fur example, the plumbing
Is all connected when (he fountain is
delivered. On other makes it is neces
sary to hire a plumber to make the con
nections, which not only Is an added ex
pense and Inconvenience hut in some
instances it is impoisible to find a
plumber to do the work properly.
“tin the Walrus you vnill find the drain
board In one piece, with no unsightly
cracks in which dirt may collect. It Is so
constructed, being built like a cord auto
mobile lire, layer upon layer and ce
mented together, as to make it absolutely
waterproof. It has 50 per cent more re
frigeration and requires a minimum
quantity of ice. The sliding doors on
tlie Walrus formation is far more con
venient than the old style lid which has
to be lifted off and put back on each
time a dipper of Ice cream is taken out.
This, by the way. is a patented feature.
“The movement along snni ary lines In
soda fountains and equipment has be
come decidedly marked in the past few
years. As agent for paper cups, paper
towels, paper spoons and paper napkins,
I have seen the sale of these articles
grow from a very limited sale to a point
where It is hard to supply the demand.
When paper equipment first came out
there was a tendency to laugh at It as a
novelty that would soon die, but so sat
Isfaetor.v were the results from the
standpoint of sanitation that soda foun
tain patrons now demand it."

the Christian era quarrying and working
of marble was known, according to F. E.
Gates, of the Gates Tile and Marble
Company.
“No really atlsfactory substitute ever
has been found for this wonderful ma
terial," Mr. Gates said, “and today mar
ble stands Just as supreme In the ranks
of high class decorative building ma
terial as It did In those long gone ages
when the Parthenon at Athens was con
structed.
“The finest examples of ancient archi
tecture are preserved to us in marble.
The Parthenon. Erethetum, Proplaca,
Theslum and Olympleum at Athens, aro
still marvels of ancient art, although
they are in ruins as the result of inroads
and devasations Incited by barbarian
hordes during the decline of the ancient
civilization.
“It is no exaggeration to say that but
for the lasting nature of the building me
dium, marble, employed the most mag
nificent conceptions, both in architecture
and sculpture, would have been lost to
the world. It Is to incised marble slabs
that we are indebted for most of the
early records of civilization and many of
these, by far the greater part in all piob
ability, would have been lost to history
had the ancients not realized the lasting
quality of marble and made use of a less
durable material.
“Marble and tile nre no longer luxuries,
they have reached the point where they
are necessities. Their first cost is ttieir
only cost, and this is realized throughout
the building industry with that It is be
ing used more than ever. This is the
reason the yards of the F. E. Gates Mar
ble and Tile Company have been ex
panded until they now cover 56,000 square
feet of space, every bit of which Is de
voted to the fabrial ocnditlons existing
throughout the country we have found
that that in our business the demand has
continued suprisingly strong. During the
past year we completed Jobs of large size
for banks, public buildings, hotels, etc.,
in cities from Indiana to New Orleans,
and right now we are busy at work
fabricating marble for a variety of work
now under construction.
“The present building boom. In my
estimation, is no mushroom affair. I
! think we are in for a long period of ex
pansion and it is going to take a large
amount of construction work to catch up
with the demand. This is only natural lu
a growing and expanding country under
present conditions.”
BUSINESS GROWS
AT RAPID RATE
Denison Cafeteria Profits by
Satisfied Customers.
The growth a business may enjoy
through the enthusiastic "boosting" of
satisfied customers is apparent in the
success of the Denison Cafeteria, accord
ing to Mr Ward, proprietor. Mr W.ird
says that since he opened the cafeteria
the business has grown steadily at a
rate even exceeding his most optimistic
expectations, and he gives the credit of
the growth to the number of satisfied
customers/that have gone out and re
turned with their friends
"Few customers nre coining every day."
he said. “They tell us somebody told
them to come, on account of our special
idcud of coffee, or on account or our
wonderful pies or our salads or the flavor
of our cooking. It i- a groat pleasure
for us to know our customers arc pleas and
and they tell others. We believe they
are pleased, or they would not continue
to cqmo regularly for three meals every
day. Os course, we have a few kickers
We would have them if everything were
satisfactory. But you ne\-r can got
something for nothing; good qualify in
anything has its value. And in the ques
tion of food, people make a mistake in
trying to got cheap food It is danger

wholesome food, even at a high rate,
it would be cheaper in the end. when

within the reach of every one. You

NOVEL MARKET
PLAN SUCCEEDS
New Merchandising Idea Meets
Popular Favors.
Fur years of continued and uninter
rupted success should provo the correct
ness of a business idea, according to Phil
Kerz, proprietor of the I.itierty Market,
and he says that In the case of his busi
ness t lie idea worked out even far more
successfully than had been hoped for by
I him in the beginning.
“In four short years the Liberty Mar
ket lias outgrown its quarters twice," Mr
Kerz €aid. “Less than a year after the
first store was opened the accomuioda

revolutionary,’ ‘as soon as the novelty
wears away It will go to the wall,’ etc.
Ifi the final analysis the objections all
amount to one and the same thing, the
reluctance of the ultra-conservative mind
to admit the possibility of success of any
plan which is not sanctioned by genera
tions of usuage.
“My own idea was nothing more than
the very simple one of ellwiniulng the
costly delivery system from the retail
grocery business, and Us attendant high
overhead costs. In addition to this my
plan was to devote the entire attention
of the business to obtaining a quick turn
over, and I felt that a store run along
these lines would meet with a hearty re
ception from the people of Indianapolis.
“This idea, simple In itself, and to my
mind at least perfectly logical, met with
the strongest opposition from some of
my best friends. They besought and Im
plored mo not to waste my money and
time on any such foolhardy scheme. They
told me the public would rather pay high
prices, run charge accounts and have the
goods delivered than to trade with us on
a lower price basis.
“But we went ahead with our plan and
In less than a year were forced to look
about for new quarters. From that small
beginning we have grown to a point
where I feel sure the Liberty Market is
the largest retail grocery store in In
diana.’’
