[Published by Arrangement.] FLETCHER HALL

COACHBUILDER AND UNDERTAKER,

FITZHERBERT AVENUE.

For over 40 years Fletcher Hall has been serving the public. x in the days when the horse and coach held pride of place, Fletcher Hall did a steady business. With the advent of the motor car, conditions became entirely changed and although the construction work was somewhat different, it was sufficiently the same to enable Fletcher Hall to make a quick change over to a more modern plant. To-day all classes of motor body repair work is carried out in his up-to-date factory in Fitzherbert Avenue and as in tbe days of old, he is doing a steady business and pleasing an ever increasing clientele. Prices very moderate and expert workmanship guaranteed.*

HOWELL’S, LTD.

COLDSOOUR. The advantage of this wonderful machine over all other scouring machines is that complete scouring can be done with cold water no soap, soda or other ingredients necessary to assist in the cleansing. The method employed by the makers of this machine is entirely different from all others at present on the market; it leaves the wool with a percentage of 3 to 6 natural grease which, when unbaled on the other side of the world, allows the wool to be spread out in all its original glossy springness, making in all a wool of a much higher standard. Further enquiries from Messrs McCulloch, Butler and Spencer, Napier.*

Their up-to-date factory in Willis street, Palmerston North, is a revelation to those who are acquainted only with the olu methods of manufacturing ice cream and similar products. It is significant that one can enter almost any store or sweet shop and be sure of seeing the well-known E-tan sign. Quality tells and sells.

To this end they have a fine lounge located just insido the main hall at the present show, and their well-known products, E-tan ice cream, Eskimo pies, Beauty bars, etc., will be dispensed to an appreciative public.

GOOD MEAT FOR ALL

MANAWATU MEAT CO. Here is a business steadily growing, because the public sees and knows, that here honest endeavours to serve are being put forth. Building up a reputation, that is a good one, is extremely hard sometimes, but how easy it becomes when a stern resolution is made, and strictly adhered‘to, to give always of the best. Hence we have the Manawatu Meat Co., now recognised as amongst the leading butchers of the town. “Inferior grade meats do not enter here,’’ says the management, and this exclusive policy pleases. If proof is required the sceptical only need to watch the steady stream of buyers making their purchases. These know where the quality is; they know also that their needs will be satisfieexpeditiously and courteously. No doubt they are also attracted by a pleasing air of cleanliness which pervades the interior of this very modern establishment, this, probably, contributing not a little to the-firm’s popularity. During show week there is going to be no slackening in the staff’s determination to maintain the lead. Knowing that their clients will have at their table visitors from near and afar, the firm realises that there is reason for. extra effort to please. All lines are being specially selected, beef, mutton, pork, spring lamb and a host of palatable ready cooked meats are being prepared. Patrons should therefore be assured and have no cause for complaints, so far as meat is concerned. Readers should see the window display of choice meats during show week.*

The Toastmaster toasts the bread on both sides and the current is turned off automatically when the toast' is done. Free demonstrations of these remarkable machines are being given daily.

[Published by Arrangement] INDUSTRY IN PALMERSTON

NORTH

SUPPORT IT. HUDSON CONCRETE CO. At the Show again is the Hudson Concrete Co. with its splendid array of concrete utensils for the home and the farm. By supporting this firm Palmerston North and district residents arc helping forward in a tangible manner the development of secondary industries in this town. At the works, Terraco End, a busy staff is engaged in the making of concrete coppers, wash tubs, cattle troughs, and the perfection of the firm’s work is admitted and proved by the supports so far received from builders and those who need their products. Did you ever think that concrete could bo adapted to so many uses in the home? Then see the display of works of utility as made by Hudson’s at tho Show. Housekeepers, particularly, will wish with all their hearts that they could have one of the nice gas or other fuel burning coppers. Many have had the old chimney and copper dismantled and a new Hudson copper installed, whilst others, who are erecting new houses, swear they will have none other. But see these and other inventions of tho firm at the Show. It is worth while. Particularly farmers, who have need of many of the concrete productions of the Hudson Concrete Co., should inspect the exhibit here displayed.*

DAHL’S RELIABLE TENTS

“Dahl’s Reliable Tents” is a phrase familiar to campers from the North Cape to the Bluff. The group of ‘‘ Up in a Jiffy” tents under this heading were all designed by Mr. L. V. Dahl, and even with Dahl's Limited to show the way emulation and imitation have barely caught up with the design of the original “Dahlia,” the tent that made obsolete the cumbersome, bulky tents of four years ago, and during these four years Mr. L. V. Dahl’s progressive designing has constantly increased the long margin of Dahl superiority. The wonderful “Marquette” tent which can bo comfortably erected in five minutes was the triumph of 1927, and the 1930 model “Triumph”—all that tho name implies, has already caused a sensation among campers. This season in the new “Triumph” one has a compact tent, even more quickly erected than the “Marquette,” giving 24ft. more floor space than hitherto, and more head room. ■■ The style is absolutely unique and unmistabably a Dahl creation.

When it comes to choosing a tent, Dahl’s tents are the tents chosen, that is at least nine times out of ten, which is not a bad percentage. Why the popularity? Simply because design, quality, price and workmanship, make it impossible and unwise for you to buy elsewhere. Dahl’s Limited are making a large display of the very latest camping tents and equipment in a large marquee at the Palmerston North Spring Show. If the weather is wet then our big marquee will be the most popular exhibit on the ground. If fine weather prevails (and lets hope it will) then the lure of the big tent and (her many tentlets) will have an additional attraction.

Our 36 page illustrated catalogue is yours for the asking ,and within its pages you will find all the gear necessary to make your summer tour a great success.—Dahl’s Limited, 85 Rangitikei Street, Palmerston North.*
