ICUMVENTING HIGHERlostS "
The advertising that appears in The Sun is news. It is vital
ievs that affects the pocketbooks of every reader. Readers of
The Sun who scan the advertisements regularly usually know how
o make n dollar go the farthest. They don't read the ndvertise
nents to kill time, but to gain information on how to circumvent
he high cost of living.
The advertising columns of The Sun are like the articles in a "
erambulating showcase. No merchant puts anything in a show
window that doesn't appeal to the passerby. And no merchant in
riCc would think of advertising nnything in The Sun that he
!oe3nt think would hit the spot.
The Sun is the catalogue of local merchants. It costs them lit
ie and saves Sun readers money.

NOTICE TO TAXPAYERS
'Salt Ijke City, March 7, 1917.
Honorable Mayor and City Council,
Price City, Utah.
Gentlemen :
On behalf of myticlf and hhho
dates I desire to withdraw the offer heretofore
made to transport nnd deliver to your city and
. its inhabitants reasonably pure water as provid
ed in an ordinance heretofore passed and adop
ted. When I made thu offer I was informed thnt the
people of Price were practically unnnimous in
their desire to secure n Hupply of pure water and
thnt there would be no opposition to the .proposal
I made. Since then I have learned thnt certain
individuals taxpayers of Price have objected
to the proposed contract, and have claimed that i
they and their associates arc able and willing to
supply your city with pure water at a much less
cost than in the proposal made by mo and my as
sociates'. In view of this objection and the viewH ex
prcssed'by a number of your prominent clfizens,
I do not desire to ask the people of Price to mnke
a contract with me a non-resident of you,r city
when your own townsmen claim they can sup
ply you with water at a much less cost thnn I
can.
Should opportunity offer in the future where
I can be of service in nfcdsting Price in securing
a much, needed supply of good wnter, I hone you
will not hesitate to call upon, me, nnd I will ren
der such service ns I can, willingly nnd freely.
Yours respectfully,
A. C. ELLIS, JR.
In view, of the acceptance of the forejjring
withdrawal, nnd a resolution duly made and
adopted by the city council on this dny and date,
the election called for Saturday, the. tenth dny of
March, A. D. 1917, Is hereby withdrawn.
(Signed) A. W. HORSLEY,
ftlnyor.
Dated at Price, Utah, this 8th day of March, j
A. D. 1917.
Attest: L. A. LAURER,
City Recorder.
HOW TO DO IT.
Some deluded folks In nnd near Price seem to imagine that
they cannot gel anything ns cheaply here as they can by sending
their money afar off. Those who do this should make a practice
of watching the advertisements In The Sun closely.
That's where tlio bargains nre to bo found. When a merchant
hns confidence that the price he has Bet on nn article Is a "puller"
ho invariably has the business courage to announce it. Otherwise
the advantage to him would bo small It would be like doing busi
ness in the dark.
Watch The Sun and prove thnt you can buy ns cheaply here,
all things considered, ns anywhere,
