In the corn crowd an increase OF rural

Diminished urgency of cash demand tend

 The next question was so natural that six people asked it at once. What does Prize City need?' they chorlIsed

 He was told that the Commercial club had often talked this over.
 "Flat's where you need me Wal lingford laa@hngly informed them .Yo, do nothing but talk. largely be- cause you're absorbed in your OWE business affairs. People need amuse- iaent more than they need anything else. What amusement do you give them in the summer? I'll tell you. On Saturday nights you let them come down and walk around and around Monument square and when their legs get tired they can carry the children home. It's no wonder they go to Riv- ertOn and Capitalia to ride on the roller coasters, as our friend Hammond puts it. Incidentally. while they're there, they buy dry goods, clothing. groceries. shoes and millinery. You must reverse those conditions.
