Fred Schweiger, one time owner of the Hull Ready to Weat Shop, located where the present Koele Insurance and Dittmer' dentist offices are now located. The picture was taken in 1916 by Mrs. Henry E. Koele, formerly Elizabeth Wagner, who now resides at 1309 Second St. in Hull.

Mrs. Koele worked for Mrs. Schweiger for her room and board, as well as in the Hull post office, prior to her marriage to Henry E. Koele in 1920, who came to Hull in 1915. Mr.

Koele passed away in 1963. Possibly some of the older Hull residents till remember the building where Mrs. Schweiger operated her ladies Ready to Wear; this was formerly a meat market, owned by M. Leopold Hoepner in 1884. Hoepner had tiis meat market in the front af the building, with an ice tiouseeastof it.

The ice tiouse was later taken down and iving quarters were constructed at the rear of the building. Mr. Fred Schweiger, who had been employed by Hoepner in Sheldon's meat market, came to Hull to operate the market, after his marriage to Agnes Hoepner, who later operated the Ladies Ready to Wear at that location. The Schweiger's became the parents of two sons, George and Leo. Leo is still living somewhere in California, and it is questionable whether George is still living.

Mrs. Fred Schweiger turned her business over to Mrs. Leo Schweiger, her daughter- Mr. Koele worked for Postmaster Steffen, in the building now owned by Henry Kiers. by MARY LEE THOMPSON Any homcmaker who tries to keep a budget in balance knows that there is no quick and easy answer to making money go further.

Even though she may have no sophisticated knowledge of economics, she understands one of its basic in our material world can come from nowhere or go nowhere, nor can it be free. Everything in our economic life has a source, a destination, and a cost that must be paid." It's wise to particularly in this political this law applies hot only to personal projects but also to business and public projects as well. For example, take the great pressure that is often put on business to meet its "social responsibilities." These demands ignore the fact that the money any business can spend or give is limited to a portion of the amount it receives from customers. According to the American Economic Foundation, business undoubtedly wants to dp many "good things" to improve its public image. But the inexorable discipline of this "where-from, where-to" law means ironically that the people would be doing "good things" for themselves.

You may think the federal government could solve the problem by allowing business to deduct the expense from taxes. But the government needs the tax money for its own expenses, and so equivalent taxes would have to be collected from the public in some other way. Then how about having the government print "new" money? That also is a fallacy since "new" money has value only by taking the value away from all other money. No matter how we twist and turn, we still must face the fact that the cost of all social programs undertaken by business will come out of the customer's pocket one way or another.
