Srhs is the question everyone in business is asking.
Business after the war is going to be what we make il, and we are
going to make 1t good!
Any Of MS who doubt this-our ability to make it good them
consider this:
What were or problems in 1914. at the beginning of the war
IN Europe
There was hardly a textile industry. am iron foundry O a chemical
industry that did NOT believe it was going to be put right out Of
business.
There was a like belief on the part of most businesses dependent
upon these, both manufacturing and merchandising.
All of these industries were using something from Germany IN
which they were dependent or thought they We're dependent.
The belief that they were going to bc put ont Of business didnt
last any longer than the thought.
There were problems, many of them, but they were all solved just
rs soon as the belief was established that they must be, and could be,
some of u, said that prices could not be increased, bat nearly
all of us increased them. because we had TO.
Others of MS said that the overhead could not be reduced, but it
was reduced.
There is hardly one Of MS who would not be ont of business today
Every business and every department of every business are do
ing some one or more things better and easier than they were done in
1914. and which We would have then said could not bc done.
Our only danger is in the can tbcionc spirit, and the more we
think the more remote is this danger.
That we never know what we can do until it IS done. is Illustrated
in principle just as well in a small business as a large one.
For instance, we have before us a letter from a Mrs. SNYDER.
She states that previous to our entrance into the war She had a
profitable business making to order S75 to 5000 gowns for the rich
and very welltodo; that This class of patronage BEGAN buying Liberty
bonds with their money, leaving her with Il large stock " material
On hand and a large workr0om OF skilled persons and no business.
Mrs. Snyder goes on to say that she put IN a stock of rcady-to-
wear gowns from $50 to T75i that she put her employees to working
up the material on hand into more ready to-wcar gowns; and then
sent ont announcements to all her former trade.
She SAYS that today, as a result she not only has II larger but
. more profitable business that today She herself is buying Liberty
