A HUMAN STORE.

In the windows of store in small Minnesota town
appeared this modest notice:
"This store will be closed all day to give its en-
ployes well deserved outing"
To the visitor from the city this suggested q new
line of thought. The store pleasant place. clean
bright and airy. The clerks apparently enjoying
their work. Their service good, and they seemed
indeed, to deserve" the holiday they about to
celebrate
This store also speaks to the public each time
a purchase is made. On the small paper bags in which
it wraps the goods is printed:
"THANK YOU.
We take pleasure in thanking you for your patron
age we believe the goods you bought Of today will
give entire satisfaction and that you will
us again when you need anything in our line.
However, if for any reason, you not perfectly
report to at once you we will
gladly adjust the matter to your satisfaction want
you to make this store your store and If you trade
here shall make it business that whatever
you buy is entirely satisfactory.
Someone says: Gall that's only advertising." OF
course it is The small towns as we'll az the larger
ones know that advertising pays This idea of rewardng
work well done by recess from work for outing in
which all join in social recreation must surely bind
the members OF great working family closer together.
Assuredy upon their return they will pitch in with
great vim and enthusiasm. And thanking customers
1t Is merely little courtesy that who buy to
have extended to by those who sell. In this busy
world there Is 80 much to be done and little time
IN which to do It, that get careless we forget that
men are brothers and labor under the feeling that our
aim is to reap the almighty dollar Here is store
wnere other Ideas rule. Do you like them?

WHEN A PROGRESSIVE IS NOT

WHEN A PROGRESSIVE Is NOT.
Raymond Robins action in coming out in support
Of Mr. Hughes candidacy affords excellent example
of Progressive who is not.
Needless to say real Progressves surprised and
shocked when Mr.. Robins made his announcement. It
not expected of him and confident that the
old line Republicans just much surprised as
were these real Progressives.
The Public. national journal OF fundamental DEM
ocracy, calls attention to utterance of Mr.. Robins
in October, 1914, in which that gentleman said:
1.-THE most sklful, the most courageous the greatest
craftsmanship of the last two in this world
the manner in which Wilson averted between this
country and Mexico. The that the blood of
American men-sons Of our homes-is not today red
denng the hot sands Of Mexico to the interests
few corporation magnaes and SPECTATORS is due
to the courage and consancy of Woodrow Wilson than
myself poor and small indeed If not able to rec
ognize wisdom, courage and public service, If
it had been shown by the chief Of opposing party"
Now Mr.. Robins complains that the Democratic party
in congress is controlled by the southern element
which is indviduastic in its sympathies and inherits
a tradition against common labor as servile."
Yet it this Democratic congress which
gave to labor the Clayton antitrust bill and whose
record labor legislation ought to put every Repub
can partisan to shame If Mr.. Robins wants to affiliate
with party which does not possess this deplorable
attitude towards labor certainly he will not find coace
within the Republican party We fail to where his
shifting of positions be justified progressive
grounds.
We have always admired Raymond Robins, but We
compelled conclusion that his "explanation'
is more in the nature of excuse than reason.

CHICAGO. May o3.-Indications are
that the republican national conven-
ton of 1916 will be one of the noisiest

With sixteen candidates for president

until the last ballot has been taken,
there is likely to be unusual amount
of noise and enthusiasm.
Fred W. Upham, chairman of the To-
cal committee ON arrangements, has
been informed that plans have been
made to bring more than 100 bands and
fifty glee and marching clubs to Chi

Charles E. Meade of Baltimore respond
ed in appropriate words. He also en-
phasized the fact that while nearly
every ingredient in bread has risen in
price, the cost of loaf remains the
same, and that economy on the part of
the bakers, based on close application
and scrutiny, is the reason.
I'VE must prove to our only competl-
tors. the housewives, that we can make
a better loaf of bread than they cam"
said A. H. Nolde of Richmond. in his
presidential report. Mr.. Nolde told Of
conditions in the flour and sugar mar
kets with which the bakers have had
to contend within the last year Or two:
recommended the intelligent use of
newspaper space to increase the
amount of the bread consumed that is
made by bakers, which, he stated, is
now less than so per cent, and declared
that pure food and sanitary laws gen.

poses Establishment of
Ten Stations.

| To provide an aerial feet for the
coast guard. as a natural development
| of coast guard activities in conserving
| life and property at sea and as
measure of preparedness for war as a
coast defense and patrol, a bill has
been introduced in the Senate by Sena-
tor Ransdell Of Louisiana, a member of
1.-THE committee on commerce, which has
the coast guard.
The measure follows the general pur-
poses of the bill introduced in the
House by Representative Andrew j.
Montague, former Governor if Virginia.
In detail. however, it applies the suS-
seston for a concrete development of
suggested by Assistant secretary

Mexico coasts, and the shores OF the
great lakes. Eacn station Is 10 We

the equipment suggested as begin
ming.

marine disasters indicate them to be
most desirable. Ten third Heutenants

are added to the personnel of the coast
guard, to provide for supplemental
force for aerial service.
