Dan BiOomheart, the we'll known
merchant of Chanute, and ex-presi-
dent of the Kansas Retailers Associ-
alton, has contributed the following
article to the associations official
much favorable comment. Mr. Bloom
heart is liberal user of printers ink
and speaks from experience His
tribute TO the local newspaper as be-
ing the big factor in the fight against
the mail order trust shows how clear
| ly he has analysed the situation. He
says:
zone of the most important prob
lens confronting Kansas retail mer,
chants at this time is the mail order
question.
THE contest between the retail
merchants and the trust has become
more acute since the establishment
of parcel post, and the mail order in
terests are losing no opportunity to
! take advantage of the new conditions
The retail merchant must be equally
as aggressive.
81 am pessimist on this question
| believe the local merchant has the
better weapons at his disposal, and
can put up better fight, if he will
only keep awake and use the weapons
at his command
1.-The local merchants can give as
good, if not better, values for the
same money, and with that added
advantage, the element of personal
contact, ought to keep in check the
mail order business in his communi-
ty, if he doesn't overlook the home
newspapers.
1.-THE mail order houses gain their
foothold, when they do, by advertis-
ing, they overlook no opportunity
along this line. The most powerful
advertising factor, however, of the
community is not at their disposal,
they cannot use local newspers, for
they are loyal to the home merchants,
and will always lead the attack in a
campaign against mail order business.
The right kind of an advertising
campaign conducted by the retail
merchants through the local news
papers will whip the mail order
houses every time.
kansas retailers are going to win
in this fight with the mail order
trust, but not by going to sleep.
They must keep on the job and take
advantage of their opportunities,
and remember that the greatest of
these is the home paper"

Dear Sir:
If the ground is we'll sup
piled with moisture, wheat roots
grow normally TO depth of four
feet and have often gone much deep
er than this. 1t is not uncommon
for both wheat and corn roots to en-
ter the ground TO depth Of five or
six feet.
You.are correct in your statement
that the ground must have moisture
or the roots will not go deep. They
will enter the ground only as far as
it is moist and the deeper rooted the
wheat or corn plant is the greater
ability it has to resist drouth and
other adverse weather conditions.
Very Truly Yours,
G. e Call,

"GIRL IN THE PINK MASK"
BATTLES DETECTIVES

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
BOSTON, Oct. 30.-At last the pO-
lice say they have solved the mystery
surrounding the Girl With the Pink
Mask" Simultaneously with her sup
posed disappearance comes the an
rOuncement of a beautiful young
woman at police headquarters, maxi
ing light of American police methods
and defying the officers to find her
an hour after her departure. Strang-
er still. she even offered a large re-
ward for her own apprehension.
The officers describe her as beau
tiful young and cultured, and gown
ed like a princess. That she is ac-
customed to great wealth is shown
by her regal bearing and commanding
manner
The police are unanimous in the
opinion that she is the mysterious
Girl With the Pink Mask" who has
furnished the newest sensation for
Boston's smart set.
It is inconceivable that one with
social prominence should court no
toriety at police headquarters, yet the
theory of the officers is unshaken by
any suggestion to the contrary.
Ofiers $1,000 Reward.
The attitude Of those who entertain-
ed the masked woman is sphinx-like
so no evidence is forthcoming from
that source.
All Boston is talking about the
beautiful young woman who laughs
at the police and offers $1,000 If they
will take the trouble to go out and
look for her.

BUSINESS MEN
SEE MILLIONS TO
AID INDUSTRIES

Josiah Marvel. president Of tho
Chamber Of Commerce. is eiatod over
the work OF the Chamber of Commerce
regarding the proposed Guaranty
Fund
1T is one Of the most important
matters the Chamber Of Commerce has
ever undertaken - said Mr. Marvel to-
day. Il have just been informed by
Otho Nowland that at the meeting Of
the Wilmington Clearing House AssO-
citation, that IL has decided TO hold a
conference with the directors of the
Chamber of Commerce tomorrow
afternoon. at 3 o'clock. This surely is
encouraging TO those who are work
ing for the commercial interests Of
our city Along this line let me re-
late an instance of good feeling. A
leading business man who has taken
no active interest in the Guaranty
movement, called me into his Office
this morning to talk on this very inn
portant subject. He said he had
been reading the articles i'm the papers
and is convinced that the underwrit-
ing Of a S1.00O.OOO guaranty fund for
the Chamber is but the nucleus for
one of several millions within two
years. Every business man, every
bank and every manufacturer has a
great work ahead of him for the ad-
vancement of the city's interests. But
all the people are needed IN this great
development movement because each
one can do something i'm his own way,
although he may not be a financial
agent"
The Chamber Of Commerce is pre-
pairing a catechism giving questions
and answers regarding the develop.
ment company and its plans.
Mr.. Maxwell said the Chamber Of
Commerce is constantly receiving re.
quests about sites for industries. Il
is believed thar many of such indus.
tries can be secured for Wilmington
provided the Chamber of Commerc,
had a guarantee fund.
