appraisal of the. new society,", sa1d:.
 Organized only last March by some of the biggest men in industry and
 commerce, the Efficiency Society Is already more than 1000 strong in to realize it's am mbition to become the great national how society. Its president is James G. Cannon, presi-
 dent of the Fourth National Bank,
 New York city.
 ''The plans of the society have
 been taking form ever since spring. If they can be carried out in any considerable Ineasure-and there is no apparent reason why they should not any many reasons. why they should-they twill constitute the so- ciety an influence in business com parable to the Government and sec ond only to it in power
 The secretary of the Efficiency So- ciety, H. F. J. Porter, has withdrawn from active work as an industrial en- gineer to devote his time wholly 10
 the work of the society
 The Efficiency Society does not hope to obtain it's great power a l strong fighting organization, but as a "get-together'' organization. In this
 respect it differs from some of the great organizations dealing with in- dustry, such the National Manufac- l turer's Association and the American l Federation of Labor. It hopes to acquire a genuine mediating influ- ence. It expects to represent and 1 champion the interest of industry as
 a whole, and not the special interests of either of the contracting parties. 1 It is interested in securing by
 scientific methods bigger and better results. It is reasonably expected 1 that the benefits of these results will 1 accrue to three parties; to capital, in l the form of increased output from l the same investment and working l force; to labor, in the shape of less l fatiguing work and markedly higher ! wages; to the consuming public, ir the guise of cheaper wares. It will | regard any increases of results which
 are not willingly and equitab bly shared between these three parties as highly ] detrime mental to the efficiency move 1 ment- In this connection, it consid- CTS the objections raised by 1abor1ns men and others to some forms oi scientific management, which in prac- 1 tice simply speed them up without
 their getting any return benefit as
 being objections well taken. The ef ficfency movement is and should ba
 a human movement. Tn the future it will in all probability be rated 2
 development of industry on the .hu. man side, as important in it's effects as the introduction in the eighteenth
 century ofsna chinery was on the me.
 chanical side. At least that is the
 aim of its founders, and some of the
 results achieved in industries, whicf
 like brick laying, had scarcely chang. ed in the methods used in 2,o0e years
 give promise of making the prophecs
 come true. ,444

most most of these people might have
soft, glossy, abundant hair of beauti-
full color and lustre if they would but

color of your hair in a few days and
forever rid yourself of any dandruft
and loose hairs, and make your hair
grow strong and beautiful by using
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Re-
medy. For generations common gard,
en- Sage has been used for restoring
and preserving the color of the hair;
and Sulphur is recognized by Scalp
Specialists as being excellent for
treatment of hair and scalp troubles.
If you are troubled with dandruff
or itching scalp, or if your hair is
losing it's color or coming out, get
fifty cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur from your druggist, and no
tice thei improvement in the appear
ance of your hair after a few days
treatment.

Advertising the City.

A meeting was called Wednesday
night of all those interested in back
ing a city ball team. Three men at
tended that meeting. On the face OF
that fact, it would appear that Be-
midi has neither interest in baseball
for itself nor in the city advertising
that results in the bringing of teams
and fans from other towns to this.
Thief River Falls is ready to run
a special train excursion to Bemidji
over the 500 line June 2 if a base
ball game can be scheduled with a
guarantee of SIS. That train would
pick up people from the small towns
along the line and bring several
hundred into the city for day.
Outside of the ball game, the city
can offer these people all the pleas
ures of a beautiful lake, boulevard
parks, etc.
Such excursions are the best kind
of advertising for the city in gen.
eral way and the visitors always
leave some money in the hotels, res
taurants, liveries, drug stores, etc.
It is an advertising field that de-
serves the immediate attention of a
Commercial club committee and
should not be neglected.
