Passengers on the Western State rail-
way Of France are soon to see free
cinematograph performances at the
main stations while waiting for trains.
Ferdinand David. the minister Of
pubic works. is now considering the
best means Of esta blishing these cinema
waiting rooms. The films shown will
be taken by special staff of operators
and will represent the picturesque
spots reached BY the, road
The cinema Will also be ingeniously
pressed into electioneering service for
the coming general elections for the
chamber of deputies. One firm has
already booked a large number of or
ders from deputies showing President
Poincare at political functions. Next
to the president there is blank space
in the films where is to be inserted the
photograph of the deputy. The films
never fail to produce an impression on
the constituents. who thus see their
representative in deep and earnest con-
versarion with the popular chief Of
state.

a HOPEFUL MOVEMENT.

we have looked upon it as an

are beginning to realize that it

good: that poverty can be mini

live in can be controlled; that the
city of tomorrow need not be
what the city Of today is-a men,

ambitious town planning prof.

How One Home Merchant Put Outside
~~ Connection ION The Run" =.

AAV" SAC - liz AAS4 SAASS~Ao - - ~ SoSAAS
Competitor ION The Run"
This is no theory framed up in
some city guys office. Here is some
thing that actually happened. That
lis, here is how one merchant put his
out-of-town competitor on the run.
1t happened in a country town III
Ohio. Two carloads Of goods staple
necessities of life-were standing on
the side track. They had been ship
ped in from Dayton to fill a demand,
supplied by an outside salesman who
had happened to be in town with the
proper bunco to 'get away with the
orders,' and that, too, at prices a
shade higher (plus the freight) than
the local merchants quotations on
the same articles delivered at the
customers door. This struck me as
rather amazing and thereupon in
vestigated the cause of the unfortu-
nate situation.
Dropping into the leading grocery
store Of town, I inquired why, they
didn't stop this intrusion into their
trade "How are you going to. stop
it," growled the fboss." ADVERTISED"
I retorted. advertiser" replied the
grocer, "why, I'm one of the best
customers our local paper has.
think I've had something in every
week for nigh on twenty years, but
I don't see as I realize any differ
ence. My name is known anywhere
within trading distance of here any
how.' Then 1 lit into him, CHOW
my friend, that is just it. Your name
is known we'll enough. But how
about your goods? You know there
vertising. One kind spreads your
name all over everything until
your goods are hidden behind your
name. There is no use of your pay
ing the local paper for telling the
people what your name u.s. What
you want to do is to stimulate an in
terest in your goods. Put out lead
err every week. Make the price on
one particular commodity so attrac-
tive that it will draw customers into
your store. Once in, they will see
something else they need, won't they.
Too ,Ta II dow IN, no
paper IL a different setting. Be sire
now. Make ii different. You know,
the people, never think Of looking for
yoor Old nd, and they couldn't find
it it they did It is obscured by it's
uniformity and utterly buried in a
crowded mass Of other matter of
Identical type and general appear
ance. And then what's the use. The
people already know your name.
Therefore, just for trial Of six
weeks, buy four times the space.
Leave good vacant margin around
yourself just for aCcent;lation, that
is, just to make EN- see Oh. And
above all things, give prominence to
the article and the special price.
Make it appeal to the shoppers
frenzy for bargains, and they will
come with a rush. Never mind your
name. They won't miss your store.
Here's why: This same special lead
err will monopolize your whole front
window. They cant get by without
noticing that your store looks differ
ent. .~
"Next week focus your forces on
some other special leader, and so on
for six weeks. -
SEQUEL; He did just as I told
him. Other live merchants did like

CONSEQUENCE: Not another
car load of foreign goods has been
shipped into that town since! huff

GALE SWEEPS GULF
 OF ST. LAWRENCE
More Than 100 Fishermen Believed
 To Have Been Lost.


 Chatham, N. B., dune 10.-Conflict- ing reports made it impossible today to estimate how many fishing smacks and lives had been lost in the storm which swept the Gulf of St. Lawrence Chaleur Bay and the Straits of Northumberland Friday
 One report placed the number of dead at 125. Advices from Carquet said that nineteen lives v ere Known to have been lost. one vessel was missing and nothing was known of the fate of the crews of .wo vessels reported ashore on Pokegudie Island.
 Capt. Samuel Dreau of the schooner Warren H.. which arrived here last night, said that when he left Ship pengan on Sunday it was reported that more than 100 rersops had usI- ished. but he believed the number was exaggerated.
 Caraquet, Shippegan and Lameaue, the headquarters of the Bay Chalcur fishing fleet, are remote points, and because of the interrupted wire con- munication it has been impossible to get accurate accounts of the storm damage.
 The vessels that suffered fiom the gale were small snhooners. Nearly every vessel was maled only by members of single family, with the father in command and three or iour sons or other relatives composing the crew.
