We want you to familiarize yourself with the quality of our meats and the prices we sell for, then judge for yourself as to where the best place is to do your marketing. The one thing that is constantly in our mind is. . "Quality." We always make certain that our meats are of the highest grade. . . and we know that they will more than satisfy our patrons. Operating a Cash and Carry Market, makes it possible for us to quote such exceedingly low prices.

Sherer, Highway Official J. A. Williams, assistant village manager and deputy building inspector of Glencoe, at a meeting of the Town- ship Board of Auditors, Monday eve- ning, was appointed Township high- way commissioner, to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of H. H. Sherer. Commissioner Sherer, the Board an- nounced, finds that it will be neces- sary for him to be away from home a great deal during the next month, and his resignation was tendered that the Board might appoint someone to look after the business during that time. The election will be April 3. Mr. Williams is a candidate. Up to last June he had been for several years assistant to Mr. Sherer, during which time he became familiar with all the details of the office, and the Township Board of Auditors, upon receipt of Mr. Sherer's resignation, quickly availed itself of the opportunity to place a man with this experience in charge. Five Year Term The commissioner, with the excep- tion of the school trustee, is the only township officer to be elected this spring, and this will be for a term of five years, at the expiration of which, in 1933, all township offices will come up for election. The provision for the termination of various township official terms on the same year was started a few years back and the adjustment of the com- missioner's term at this time, will complete the plan. The New Trier Citizens' League, J. M. Dickinson, Jr., president, at a recent meeting endorsed the name of Mr. Williams for highway commis- sioner and also that of J. Edward Maas of Wilmette for reelection to the office of school trustee. East St. Louis, covering 8,627 acres, ranks second only to Chicago in area of Illinois cities. vVvVvVvVvey VV VV VV VVvVvVvVvVvY OUR SPRING FLOWERS Our bulb flowers are in bloom and the variety this Spring is larger -than usual.
