Otto Morrow, the we'll known local
traveller. is nicely fixed for the sum
mer at Big Pine lake, near Perham

pleasant time ver Sunday. There are
many visitors to his cottage.
Rev. Herman Jones, a former tray
cling salesman, has been called to the
pastofate Of Trinity Presbyterian
church. st. Louis, Through selling
goods on the road he supported a wife
and two children and saved enough ia
put himself through Louisville Theo-
logical seminary.
william "Bill'' way, the serene
salesman for the Monopole, has alb
scented himself from Fargo nearly
three weeks, and hts old time friends
will be pleased to see him when he re-
turns to the state in a few days. Will
liam "Bill" has been down endeavor-
ing to induce the people of South Da-
kota to partake of his wares and he
sends a card to the travellers reporter
that he is meeting with and
that from the amount OF smoking he
sells there won't be a mosquito in the
entire south state.
Postal authorities state that II
firms and individuals addressing mail
to commercial travellers en- route will
take the pains to write Commercial
traveller after the name OF the ad-
dresse IL will greatly facilitate deliv-
cry The point made by the p~ostofice
men Is that IL they know the person
addressed is a commercial traveller
and not merely q transient they car
better figure out how to reach him
knowing the habits and methods Of
travelling statesmen as well as postof-
fee employees must II they are In the
service for any length OF time.
At this season OF the year one can
not go to d lake resort between here
and the twin cities without seeing q
traveltr. They are just now busily
engaged in taking a rest and the
greater number OF them are working
harder at that than they generally do
at selling goods, not that they odn't
work at the latter either, but lisa
different kind OF work and they return
to the road feeling fine and ready for
whatever comes up.
Many towns are making up a per-
Inanent home products exhibit and
Fargo had n last year and expects
to have another next winter. New
Haven, Conn, has a permanent ex-
hibit of the products of the Fmanufac-
turers Of that city located at 671-672
Chapel street. The formal opening
Of the exhibit took place on May rs,
under the most favorable conditions.
Tt is the hope OF the promoters that
commercial travellers visiting New
Haven will make q point OF calling at
the exhibit and be shown through.
