There is abundant reason to believe
that the president, either alone or in
conjunction with the executives Of
other neutral nations. can secure from
the nations at war a statement of the
terms upon which peace is possible,
and such statement would be the
beginning Of an exchange of views

THE MERCHANT
Who ADVERT|SES

Once in while when we feel strong
enough and patient enough to go out
soliciting advertising from some of
our friends and neighbors who seldom
break into print, we are handed some
thing like this: "Now tell me, what
is the use of my spending money for
advertising II have been here for years
and everybody in the country knows
what I. SELL" Yes, brethren, there
still exist few isolated specimens of
the old fashioned merchant who asks
that question and really believe that
there is no answer to it. 1t is hard
to answer. In fact it is hard to speak
at all. A fellow feels like bringing
up a 42-centimetre gun and shooting
a little twentieth-century ginger into
the man who asks it. Yes, Mr.. Mer-
chant, you have been here 20 years,
but everybody in the country does
NOT know what you sell. They
know that you are here, just as they
know that there is big tree at the
side of the road a mile out of town,
or the same as they konw that some-
where in town there is a lookup.
And when they come into town they
drive right past wour place-just as
they drive past the big tree or the
calaboose-and they pull up in front
of the store of the fellow who has
NOT been here 20 years but who is
doing bigger business than you are
just because he advertises and makes
good what he says in his ads. You
can do the big BUSINESS too, Mr.. OLE
Timer, any day you get rid Of the
idea that because you have been here
a long time everybody is thinking
about you. This does not refer to any
particular merchant but to one ant
all of the non-advertising kind.

ELKS PLAN FOR
A new HOME


The Elks lodge of this city have
under consideration the building of
an elegant new home. Plans and
drawings for this new home has ar
rived and are being inspected, and the
hope isrentertained by members of the
order that the erection of this build
ing will take place this year. The
building is to be located on fifth street
on lots which are now owned by the
Ells. While it will not be the most
expensive building of its kind in the
state, it is believed that it will be one
of the handsomest exclusive Elk
homes in the entire northwest, and
would be great credit to the city.
The building committee Of the order
have he matter we'll in hand and much
interest is being shown. The esti-
mated cost of such a building is $780,
600, which according to the prelimi-
nary plans and specifications would
be very reasonable figure.
The style of the building will be
Colonial with the portico Of terra Gotta
the front of tapesried brick and the
sides Of pressed brick. Two large We
randas adorn the front. Everything
about the building will be absolutely
fire proof with as little wood as possi-
bic. The floors, except in the ball
room, will be tile. The ground space
is AZ 145 feet and the building may
be said to be three story, as the base
ment will be finished. In the base
ment will be located the dining room
with adjoining private rooms, the con-
Meeting doors such as may be swung
back to from a banquet room 9Ox2t
feet for special occasions. In the base
ment will be the billiard room, bowl
in galley and kitchen. "A sub-base
ment for the heating and ventilatine
plants will be provided. The system
of ventilation changes the air in thu
larger rooms every ten minutes.
In the rear Of the second floor is tn
magnificent ball room, reaching VI
through two stories. This room will
be 40x75 feet and elegantly finished
The system Of lighting to be used il
worthy of comment. The apparatus
will be invisible and the effect will b.
that of one blaze of brilliant, yet sub
dued light which, with the aid OF re
Electors, will be cast through the room
apparently radiating from no partlcu
lar places. On the first floor are ais
the ladies' reception room, the stewar'
room and other ante rooms. On TN

RECOMMENDS
PROHIBITION

Washington, D. c., Jan. 1s.-That
the District of Columbia would fare
as well under prohibition as North
Dakota, was the declaration of Sem
ator Gronna in the senate today.
Prohibition has been in force in
North Dakota since it was admitted to
the union," he said. "The state has
prospered, and the fact that no liquor
could be sold within it's borders has
had a great deal to do with it's bust
ness welfaer.
1T is true that some liquor has been
brought into the state, but the amount
has been SO small that it's introduction
has affected only small proportion OF
our citizens.
'1f prohibition should be applied to
the District of Columbia, as believe
it should, the result would be equally
beneficial. I hope law prohibiting
the sale Of liquor in the capital will be
passed shortly"
