BUSINESS Is YEARS OLD
Something About the Golden Rule
Stores That do . Business Of
$4,000 900 A Year
"Coutesy Of the Department Store
Pftess: Al.

Thirteen years ago a young man
named James C. Penny, rented q store,
fortytive feet deep, with a frontage Of
~twepty-four feet on the mainstreet Of
K%anafnerer,, Wyoming. -over-the door
he hung a sign which read "TheG Older
Rule Store. A few days ago he and
his thirty buyers completed purchases
in New York aggFegating a million
dollars. The stock viii go on the
shelves Of seventy Golden Rule Stores
scattered over thirteen. states in the
Rocky Mountain section Of the West
and in Dakota.
The little shop in Kammarer took in
.$29,0 400 during the first year. Last
year the Golden Rule chain did a bust
ness Of 49, 600 900. All this growth in
thirteen years, and yet none Of these
stores is in a large city, and none Of
them has a fashionable trade. They
boast no beautiful show windows and
their advertising is done on a modest
scale. The secret behind their growth
is not to be found in any Of the trade
methods used by the big city stores.
They have thrived on the simplest,
:sanest merchandising principles.
The story of the Golden Rule chain
is at once a lesson and an inspiration
for all merchants. Department store
men who live in fear of the chain store
can we'll take heed Of Mr.. Penny.s
methods. The chain store, which bas-
'es it's appeal upon the cry, "From
Maker to User" has little in common
with the department store. It is
largely a manufacturing proposition.
But the Golden Rule stores are not a
by-product of a factory. They buy in
the same field as the department store
and their problems, in part, at least,
are the same. Their story is the
whole history of the coming of the
chain store. If such stores are to take
trade from the big city establishments
it behoves department store men to
study them. Their phenomenal growth
shows that they fulfill a demand
made by the people. Every reason
for the success Of all chain stores is
contained in the story of the Golden
Rule organization.
One word sums up the rise of the
firm that started so humbly twelve
years ago. That word is MEN. No
one ever took charge of a Golden
Rule store who has not been tried
in the hard school of selling from be-
hind the counter. The men at the
head of every link in the chain a t
one time waited on customers them
selves. They are real statesmen
first-everything else afterwards.
But this alone does not account
for the trailing of the chain over
thirteen states. Behind these men
are the right goods. No customer
of a Golden Rule store was ever
"stung." Under the laws that govern

MINING NOTES
FROM THE WALKER
LAKE COUNTRY

A short time ago, on the Bovard
property east of Walker Lake, very
sensational development of high grade
ore was made In the lower level in
the south drift they shot into 20
inch streak that averages $1,000 per
ton. 1t will be remembered that a
shipment of carload made last fall
from this property netted the fortu-
nate owners about $4,000. Since then
they have been doing considerable
work. 1t looks as though their efforts
are to be golden result
In the Rand district on the Kaeel
property they are opening up body
of ore which, at the present time, $
Ia feet in width that averages an even
ounce of gold per ton. With streak
on the footwal1 that averages SlCc

1t seems that, at last, the Indians
have an Agent that is taking an in
terest in their welfare ID. F. ]. Nc
Kinley seems much interested in the
advancement of his wards in trying
to make them contented and remain on
their lands. This year they have
something like $50 acres of wheat
Heretofore the wheat raised by the
Indian has not been cleaned and made
ready for the mill, selling principally
for chicken feed. This year he has
bought $l700 threshing machine and
the wheat will be turned out ready
for the miller. They will have 1900 10
1900 tons of the finest alfalfa hay.
The doctor has already bought $4,000
worth of horses and has just bought
herd OF 500 Hereford heifers and 70
full blood bulls. The government pay
ing for the cattle, the Indians to re-
pay the government from the increase
in fact doing all in his power for his
wards. That they appreciate such
treatment is shown by the very few
who are living away from the Reser-
vation. A greater number is there
this year than ever before-all work
ing as hard as they can to get their
land in condition and in crops.

ent of this district, and was installed

is woman of proven ability and there
is no reason to doubt but that she
will be able to handle the work of her
new Office successfully. Mr. Ander-
son, who has been in charge of the
work in this district for eight years,
has been transferred to the fifth dis

ENTERTAINMENT
WAS A GREAT SUCCESS
IN EVERY WAY

The entertainment given by the Ii
brary Board of the Mason school was
decided success in every respect. In
spite of the inclement weather every
body in Mason, many from Yering
ton and vicinity were among the audi
ence A piano solo, we'll played by
little Lois Kidder, was followed by a
solo, "The Vagabond," in which Mr..
Kline's voice was heard to advantage.
Mr. Kline responded to an enthusias-
tic encore. Guy Kidder and Bennie
Phillips then sang Il Don't Want to
Go to War" The guns and sword
they carried and the flag and colors
displayed belied their words. Their
voices are sweet and full of promise.
They easily carried off the honors.
The children of the Mason school
then presented the operetta, THE
Visit of the Flowers" Solos, duets
and choruses were we'll rendered The
seven first graders were dressed as
dandelions; six little girls represented
violets; three girls and three boys
were popies, all appropriately dress
ed. Helene Cook, as Fairy Queen,
very graciously granted the wishes of
the children, while Irene Canaan and
Lois Hidden were the earthly maidens
at whose request the flowers were
made into real children. Then fol-
lowed piano duet by Marietta and
Viola Roehl, both of whom show ex-
ceptional talent Hazel Ambrose re-
cited James Whitcomb Riley's Rag
gedy Man" in manner SO pleasing
the audience demanded an encore.
Mildred Leavitt sang in her own
sweet way "The Secret" and respond
ed to a hearty encore by singing a
lullaby. Mrs. Hanson was as per-
fectly at home in Kitchen Court
ship" as in THE Society Lady Getting
Ready for the Opera" thus showing
great versatility. Mason showed its
appreciation of Mr. Ricksecker's sing
ing by demanding an encore. A dance
followed the program and splendid
music by Mrs. SHUTTER and Mr.. Lam
was enjoyed until a late hour AT
the conclusion of the program, Mr..
Lang. rising young lawyer, made
neat little speech and presented Mrs.
Mckay, the Principal, with costly
vase, inlaid with silver in poppy de
sign. This was gift from the moth
ers in token of their appreciation of

CITY GOVERNMENT
FOR THE
NEXT TWO YEAS

In the election for city officials, held
last Tuesday, the first election in
which the ladies have had the oppoT-
tunity of casting their ballots, seems
to indicate that the old line OF CAM
paign is one of the past-that new
methods along clean lines Of politics
will be the one that must be used
that is if the ladies conduct their
campaigns in the very quiet an deihc-
lent manner in the future as the city
campaign and election just held That
they are going to vote is certainty;
that the man whom they will support
must be one that will define his posi-
ton on the issues of the campaign;
that the laws must be enforced. In
this city there were l23 women regis
tered and ll3 of these voted. Wo-
man suffrage has come to stay. Mere
man must take notice.
The election passed off very quietly.
Following is the result of the vote:

1t is to be hoped that the new Coun-
Gil will do something to enforce some
of the ordinances, formulate plans ex
tending over a series of future years,
sor the permanent good OF our little
city. There are great many small
things that can be done that will make
life more bearable, and add to the
reputation for progressiveness that at
least two our former city admins
trations tried to carry out. That the
appointments to be made will be OF
those competent and who will do their
duty by the city.
