"Trade at Home" Slogan
at Chamber Dinner
Next Monday
OUTLINE CAMPAIGN
Committee Starts Work
to Build Up Home
Business

Next Monday night at the Hotel
Washington at $3.50 a dinner will be
given by the "Trade.at-Home" CON-
mittee of the Aberdeen Chamber of
Commerce. This committee consists
of P. A. Bertrand, ]. S. Waugh and
j. ]. Kaufman, who have complete
charge of all the details of the affair,
and the handling of the tickets which
will be necessary for admission.
This will be most important affair
and one very vital to the business
growth of this city.
1t is conceded by all thoughtful men
that the business interests of this city
are at critical period and that, with
a proper understanding and procedure,
great benefits can be derived.
After the dinner a series of talks on
designated subjects will be given, after
which the meeting will be thrown open
for the proper ventilation and discus.
sion Of the subjects needing consider.

The committee has been working on
plans and will present them to the
meeting for ratification, thus giving
each class of business a chance to in
troduce its peculiar problems, and to
improve the present conditions.
Many merchants fail to understand

IN ABERDEEN

the requirements and conditlono -
their customers so fail to serve them
properly, hence diminishing busihooa
Then, again, the customers must ~
educated, mainly through the home
papers, to understand that their inter-
ests and the merchants interests are
intertwined and that it is to their
distinct advantage be loyal to the
home town stores. This brings us to
the point that the merchants must
be ready to compete in merit of goods
and prices against outside stores,
thus proving worthy of the business.
The main points to be considered.
to bring about these good results, are
publicity, friendly criticism, up-to-date
stocks, a reasonableness in price and
a desire to sell more goods on a
smaller margin, rather than few
goods at big profit.
Efficiency is the watchword and the
only way to success; for our merch-
ants to sit still and do nothing and
expect to succeed in the face of the
oceans of advertising pouring in from
other cities is the essence Of foolish
ness.
In this "Trade at Home proposi-
tion, there are many serious weakness
es and errors to correct, and the peo-
pie and merchants are in large meas
ure equally blameworthy and need the
light of publicity to correct their lack
of loyalty and reciprocity.
This outline of the work contemplate
ed should surely convince our people
that the proper thing to do is to turn
out in great numbers next Monday
night, and take part in the very i'm
portant meeting.
Any further information can be OBJ
tanned from the Chambers Trade at

The Penalty for
a Good Reputation

When an article has been on the
market for years and has given COM
plete satisfaction when used in
thousands of homes it creates for
itself a valuable reputation, yet at
the same time this good reputation
has its penalty.
Foley's Honey and Tar Compound
enjoys splendid reputation, for it
has been used for three generations.
Its fair name and high repute have
created a demand for it, and to sup
ply this demand at a greater profit
1mitat tons and substitutes are offered.
Purchasers who know the original
cannot be fooled by any etjust as
good, offering and it is worth the
effort of any one who wants a reliable
cough syrup to insist upon the orig
inal and genuine Foley's Honey and
Tar Compound. which has proven so
valuable for the relief of coughs
