The influence of
Cash In Buying

To buy for cash. at wholesale
means a lower price. To buy in
large quantities for cash means a
still lower price. This store always
buys for cash and always buys in
large quantities. Here's an in
stance:
The manager of the mems fur
nishing goods department was in
Kansas City the greater part of
last week in company with the
Kansas City buyer purchasing
goods for next Fail and Winter.
He was telling the writer of just
one purchase he made on which
the price was exceedingly low.
Several months ago he bought
100 dozen mems socks for which
he paid SIC a dozen-the regular
price was re per dozen-when
these hundred dozen pairs were
sold he bought another lot of 500
dozen and got them for 6Oc-Iast
week while he was in Kansas City
he contracted for 1000 dozen pairs
for delivery next Fall, and he got
them for 72 per Dozen
It is quite a difference in price
between TIC and 571Ac-and this
difference in cost effects the diff
ference in the selling prices of this
store-we sell good merchandise at
famously low prices because we pay
cash at wholesale and because we
buy in large quantities.

The State Teachers Associa-
ton may ask the legislature to
enact law fixi ng a minimum
salary of $50 per month for tea
cheers holding first grade certifi-
cases, s55 for second grade GER
tifcates and $50 for third grade
certificates. We believe such a
measure would be very unwise
and seriously detrimental to ed
ucational interests. A first grade
certificate does not make a first
class teacher by any means and
no law should be enacted that
would encourage the employ
ment Of third grade teachers or
even the continued issuance of
third grade certificates. A teach
er who has not Suthc1ent mental
ability or ambition to obtain a
better certificate than third grade
is not worth $50 a month aid
should not be employed in any
district unless absolutely neces-
sary. There are great many
small districts in the state
hundreds of them probably, that
would be unable to have the
number of months of school re-
quired by law, except by levy
ing a large special tax, if requir-
ed to pay poor grade teacher
a high grade salary.

WHAT is ELECTRICITY?
An Enigma Whose Solution Is a Puzzle
to the Scientists.

What is electricity? First we must
ask what is positive electricity? and
the answer is we do not know. For
myself do not even guess, beyond
supposing it to be a mode of mani
festation or differentiated portion
OF the continuous and all pervading
ether, 1t seems to exist in Jumps
the size of the atoms of matter, and
no portion of it less in bulk than
an atom has ever been isolated OF
appears likely to be isolated. But,
although it may have bulk, it ap-
pears as if it had no appreciable
mass; the massiveness or inertia Of
the atom is probably due to some
thing else, in fact to the possession
of negative charges in equal amount
This part of the doctrine is not yet
certain. More investigation is urg.
emily needed into the meaning and
properties of positive electricity.
Meanwhile we shall only be follow
ing the lead of Professor j. j. Thorn.
son if we assume that a unit of posi-
tive electricity has massiveness (o1
what is often inaccurately called
weight either zero or very small,
most probably very small; perhaps
about 1 per cent of the mass OF
some atoms of matter may be due
to the positive electricity which
they contain.
But concerning negative cleo
tricity we know a great deal more.
This exists in excessively minute
particles, sometimes called electrons
and sometimes called corpuscles
these are thrown off the negatively
charged terminal in vacuum tube
and they fly with tremendous speed
till they strike something. When
they strike they can propel as well
as heat the target, and they can
likewise make it emit phosphores-
cent glow, especially if it be made of
glass or precious stones. If the
target is a very massive metal like
platinum, the sudden stoppage Of
the flying electrons which encounter

it causes the production of the ethe-
real pulses known as X rays. Elec-
irons are not very easy to stop,
however, and fair proportion of
them can penetrate not only wood
and paper, but sheets of such metals
as aluminium and other moderately
thin obstacles. That is because they
are extremely small, much smaller
than the atoms of matter.-Sir Oil
