Petition from the River Drive Boost
.rs' club. asking that the city ordin-
ance LAYING claim to riparian rights
in The east end be repealed, was pre-
eon,ed to the Moline city council by
George Gould, representing the club,
81 lis regular session this morning,
The petition was referred to the COM
mjttee Of the whole for discussion.
There IS no likelihood. however, that
the ordinance will be repealed.
Mr. Gould was informed, however,
,rat the ordinance might be amended
so as 10 straighten out several joys in
River drive. which is one OF the objects
sought by the Boosters club.
i is understood to be the unani-
nous opinion of the city council, how
eyer. that to repeal the ordinance
would be to give away the Moline pub
lies right in the river front, which
NAV in years to come he worth mil
lions.
The city council does not expect to
soc warehouses and docks along the
river front east of Thirty-fourth street
for 30 years. possibly, but it does ex-
meet that there may be docks and
warehouses west of Thirty-fourth
street before that time. If there are
not. Moline will have been hopelesly
distanCed as a river commercial point

ho Jiro would moi

move a lot of goods, the merchant has
got to blow in a little. Otherwise it
will seem to the public as if the thing
was not genuine.
People have become used nowadays
to the big advertisements in the large
city papers of special sales. They
look to the home merchants to do the
same thing.
There is psychology of the crowd.
A we'll filed store is conducive to buy
ing. If the aisles are filed, people be-
ieve that the sale is real thing, and
the bargains genuine, their over-cau-
ton disappears, and they buy what
they want instead of waiting. No
other way exists of starting the crowd
but by good big newspaper adver-
tisement. 1t cost some money, and
it brings some returns. 1t starts a
business on new level of prosperity.

OUR YESTERDAYS

sizes of perpetual peace, the whole
eastern world blazed out suddenly
in the greatest war of which we
have any history or any intimation.
Our immediate yesterday shows
that nations will still fight. That is
a lesson that ought to be impressed
on our minds as thoroughly as if the
admonition were craven in brass.
But in spite f that direct lesson,
we still have among us quite num-
Der of person who solemnly tell us
that, now the world is YEARLY of
war and that there will never, no
never again be a worldwide con-
fiict;; that never again, with the
horrible example of this war before
them, will men enter into strug-
gle with force and arms.
We have no lesson of any of the
yesterdays of all the ages that teach
es us that men will ever cease to
fight. Every experience teaches us
to the contrary, although we did for
time forget the plain reading Of
history and pleased ourselves with
the idea that peace would reign on
earth forever more. But it will not
so reign as long as men are what
they are and the tens of thousands
of years of the occupation of the
globe by mankind does not show that
human nature has materially
changed.
The preparedness which is now
being urged for this country is a
healthy reaction from the previous
lethargy, and it's successful estab-
lishment will insure us the peace
that we desire, where the other at
titude of forgetting our yesterdays
would bring us disaster, disgrace and
destruction Miami Herald.

REDUCING SUMNER STOCK


Every merchant confronts in mid
summer the problem whether he will
mark down his stock, or take chances
on carrying it over another year. No
store can get along without buying
more goods than it can sell at regular
prices. 1t must expect to have spe-
cial sales or carry things over.
: A good sale has value apart from
the immediate proceeds of it. The
people who came fora specially ad-
'vertised bargain, who bought and saw
the value they were getting, are a
good asset to have. They will come
again the next time any article they
want is advertised, and will also make
visits at other times.
} The merchant can not we'll await
until late season before starting to
work off his summer stock. A moder-
ate reduction in July and August will
move a lot of goods that could only be
carried out on a big cut later on.
A special sale simply has to be ad-
vertised literally in order to draw the
crowd. A store can attract attention
by regular use of small space, and it
will crate its own regular use of a
small space, and it will create its own
regular customers without a big
splurge if the advertising is done reg
ularly. But to get the crowd and

/ am Yesterday. Learn to look me
in the face, to use me, and not to be
afraid of me DIR. Frank Crane.
The trouble with the most of us
is that we do not use our yesterdays.
They have come to us one by one,
each bearing it's experience, each
showing us the inevitable result CT
any course of action, and yet when
today comes we utterly fail to re-
member the lessons of yesterday.
1t is as true in national life as in
individual life, that we forget the
teachings of the yesterdays, and at
this particular and critical time,
many of us are ignoring the plain
teachings of the yesterdays OF The
world, the history of the world.
Many of us thought three years
ago that there never again woui6 be
a general war. 1t was reasoned OUT
with irresistible logic, that war had,
by reason of the great advance in
destructive machinery, by reason of
the vast numbers of men who would
inevitably become involve d,become
too costly fir any country to under
take; that the bankers Of the world
would refuse to- finance any natin at
tempting to begin war, and that
nations, themselves, had arrived at
that stage or state of being where
they would settle their. difficulties by
arbitration or diplomacy, and that
war between great nations was a
thing Of the past.
We, forgot that human nature was
much the same as it always had
been; that when the passions of men
are aroused they find expression in
war much as they have been doing
ever since history began.
