An interesting feature in connection with the Brentwood election was the town treasurer situation. K. C. Helm | | present treasurer, failed to file for re-glection, stating he no longer want- | ed the job, nor did any one else file, | and the official ballot therefore con tained no aspirant for the position. | A number of friends of E. W. Baker. town clerk. however. wrote his name | on the ballot for treasurer. The judges of election. though, it is said. declined to count these ballots. Baker stated last night he would make no protest | since he never has and does not now | seek the treasurer’s job. It is under +atood that E. C. Helm may vet con ment to continue in office for another year, but if he does not the mayor and council probably will be called upon to name a treasure: North Brentwood , re-elected Jere. miah Hawkins as mavor to serve one year H John H.

It keeps foods delightfully fresh and wholesome and overcomes the mingling of odors. The eleven thicknesses of wall construction used in the “Bohn Syphon” keeps the heat out and the cold in, re- ducing ice consumption to a very minimum. Because it preserves foods best, is very easily taken care of, and costs so little for icing, the “Bohn” has become recognized as the most efficient of all refrigerators, Prices Range on Bohn Refrigerators $37 1o $275 Palais Royal—Fourth Floor
