Business as Usual
Some Views From the Local
Field.
SIT DOWN AND FACE THE
FACTS.
BY W. X. Hinkle.


President Hinkle Motor Car CO.
There see is TO be a tendency in
some parts OF the country 10 be
over-cautious on account of the war
"hysterical economy -
some people call il. Business must
exist during the war just the same
as it does any other time. SO, we
may as well sit down calmly ana
face the true facts. What we want
TO know is whether our customers
are going TO stop buying promptly,
or gradually, or what?
There is one thing we cannot get
away from. As long as the people
have more money than they ever
had before, they are not going TO
stop buying or limit their buying.
The money of the world is in the
United States today. in the hands Of
the people. and when they have
money they are going 10 buy. OF
course. prices are going 10 be high
er, but at the same time wages are
higher. With more money. the scale
of living is better. More people are
prospective customers today, espe-
cially in the automobile business,
than ever before in the history of
our trade.
There does not seem to be any
chance at all for the prices 10 come
down before the end Of the war;
even after the war is over, the re-
adjusted scale of prices will be
higher than were normal prices be-
fore the war. During the war Ia
Dor will be scarcer. Wages will be
higher. The scale Of wages will not
be reduced until we run into hard
times again, and even then we have
doubt as to wages ever equaling the
lower wages prior 10 the war.
Every farsighted business man
should. therefore, look ahead and
protect himself. Don't stop buying
now because prices may go higher
yet, and very likely will. Don't re-
trench, but adjust your business for
what is only a reimbursement of con-
ditions. Business in the immediate
future is not going to get worse.
1t is going 10 get better.
The foregoing expresses our owa
analysis of the situation today and
upon which we have based our pur-
! chases for the future.

REAL FIGHT

THAT'S WHERE THE LIQUOR
QUESTION WILL BE
DECIDED
NOT IN COUNTRY
Vermont Paper Points Out That
In "Wettest" States, rs Per
Cent of the People Live In
Big Towns and Defend the
Saloons

It Is not unlikely that those who
are fighting the saloon may be fooled
by signs of victory" in the maps
showing dry territory.
Putting the saloons out OF business
isn't a question OF merely capturing
land areas. White territory" shown
on prohibition maps usually represents
farm lands, while black areas repre-
sent congested populations.
The problem of the saloon Is In
tensely human-it has to do with men
and women, and most Of those who
live in unconquered territory live in
cities which do not cover much land
area.
Only about 20 per cent Of the popu-
lation in dry states live In cities.
country about 75 per cent live in the
cities.
One-fourth of all the people in the
United States living in wet territory
live in six cities-New York, Chicago,
philadelphia, st. Louis, Boston and
Cleveland. One-half the people in IL
censed territory live In four states
New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois and
New Jersey.
| The fight against the saloon had its
origin in the country. 1t was the out
growth OF religious revivals. The
farmer Of today inherits the hatred
of his forefathers for the saloon and
he hits the saloon a solar-plexus blow
levery time he gets chance.
But it's different IN the city. The

And those who would destroy the sa

In some respects this would be
misfortune. For however bad an in

in wet territory are perfectly SINGER

GRAY HAIR BECOMES
DARK and BEAUTIFUL
Try Grandmother's Gid Favorite
Recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea
and Sulphur, properly compounded,
brings back the natural color and lustre
to the hair when faded, streaked or
gray. Years ago the only way to get this
mixture was to make it at home, which
Is mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" You will get large bottle
of this old time recipe improved by the
addition OF other ingredients for about
so cents. Everybody uses this prepara-
tion now, because no one can possibly tell
that you darkened your hair, as it does
it so naturally and evenly. You dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another appli-
cation or two. your hair becomes beauti-
fully dark, thick and glossy and you
look years younger. Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound is a delightful toi'
requisite. 1t is not intended for the cure,
mitigation or prevention of disease.
