For a modest journal like the
TIMES, it is somewhat difficult to
express its real feelings in regard to
trading stamps, for these promoters
of modern merchandising conflict
with what we must consider legiti-
mate, on newspaper advertising.
In other words the appropriation the
merchant makes for advertising in
cludes what he pays for stamps.
That the trading stamp idea is
founded on poor commercial prin
clple is too patent to need argument
A merchant should not pay people
to buy his goods. 1t Is a virtual
admission that he is charging more
than the goods are really worth (;
which is an idea no tradesman ofany
standing wishes to convey. The
TINES has always held to the theory
that time alone could show the
fallacy of the scheme, and it would
seem that the time is about arrived,
as far as Providence and Olneyville
are concerned. The meeting held
at the Chamber of Commerce last
week when sixty dealers agreed to
discontinue the use OF the stamps
shows that the beginning of the end
is in sight. The largest merchants
i'm this section had decided, even il
the Providence people continued the
practice, to scout 1t out" in their
