The Trade Tonic

Advertising is sometimes called
a tonic to trade depressions. In
other words, advertising is also
said to make the trade wheels role
That's true. Certainly no one fac
tor fgues stronger in commercial
dolngs.
When there's lull in business,
when trade Stacks up a bit, there
are dealers who just sit down end
let it grow duller. 'Why should
he advertiser they ask, There's
no money in circulation. But
there always is and advertising is
the stimulect that keeps it circu-
lating. That merchant who con
tinues to advertise is also the mer-
chant who sells lots Of goods dur
these periods.

The Inter-Stake NJ. |. A.
Contest a Grand Success

could prove but beneficial to
labor in America.
Mr.. Woolsey introduced argu-
ment to refute Mr.. Larson's
stand, and declared such legisla-
ton as advocated by the affirma-
tive as unconstitutional.
Common consent gave the de-
cision to the affirmative, except
possibly construction of argu-
ment. The decision of the judges
was left for the following even
ing.
A few numbers not in the con-
test were also nicely rendered at
this meeting.
Sunday evening St Johns won
the Senior double quartette in
competition with the winners in
the Snowflake stake meet. The
song rendered by the winners
was a better song than the re-
quired one, and there an advan-
tage was gained over the locals,
who adhered to the rules given
in the Era.
The stories of both sides were
good. However, Snowflake had
decidedly the advantage. Mr..
Sherwood, of ST. Johns, led with
a good rendition of the story of
Enoch Arden. Mrs. Jennings
followed with a very pleasing
presentation of the story that
won her first place in the ward
and stake meet tom Redford's s
Luck. ("
Marion Rogers won the orator
ical contest without a competitor.
This was a great disappointment
to the speaker, and those who
heard him in the stake contest
missed the enthusiasm exhibited
on that occasion.
Other pleasing numbers helped
to fill up the program for the
evening.
The attendance at the exer-
cises was $50 persons on Satur-
day night and 632 on Sunday
evening.
