SOUTHERN MERCHANTS

(By P M. Birmin gham.)


 Memphis, July 24-(SpeciaD- Cotton States Merchants Association Sixth Annual Convention will be held, at Memphis August 19-2021, and will again offer their annual opportunity to which thousands of thinking business men of the South look forward, for working out their problems, present. ing their ideas and by fraternizing with competitors and friends arriving at better and more profitable means for results.
 Presidept Wilson, early during the war, urgee yhe formation of Trade As sociations of every character and the wisdom of the suggestion was amply proven by the marvellous results at tained.
 Business men are coming to realize more every day that they should be interested not alone in the efficiency of stheir own, but also their competitors business.
 Clean-cut rivalry plus consistent CO., OpeIdllOu ludheS lOT CONSTRUCTING Suc- cessful business. Without the proper spirit of cooperation, rivalry too fre- quently becomes destructive. To feel that we need not or should not assoc fate with our competitors it's tanta- mount to an admission that we are not abreat of the march toward progress that we are not prOpreSSinP with tho new era. It is our duty to help and be helped.
 Associated endeavoor will solve any human problem and the Cotton States Merchants Association, with it's vast membership among Southern Mer- chants has helped in directing many toward their goal, and it can help any business man with an open mind.
