stated that the secret OF the success
OF the hardware association, which is
considered the strongest commercial
organization in the country, is It's con-
sentative policy He devoted most OF
his time to the question OF competition
from the great mail order houses. and
expressed tho opinion that the retailer
will soon have to meet them In the
matter OF price. He said that IT is n
mistake for the retailer to represent
to his customers that the goods dis
tributed by the mail order houses are
OF inferior quality, as this Is seldom
true.
President NJ. Bonnoitt, Of Darling

the necessity. which seems to be
strongly felt by the entire association
that II take more active part In Sc
