NelU Ideas ShO,un iy,
Infants Department

A LMOST as if in answer to those
buyers who last week discusse d
and approved the idea of using the in
fants' department in the retail store
as unit in child welfare work, there
have been opened up in this city two
such departments, with new and up-to-
date equipment.
Crowds OF such size that they prove
the validity of the idea over and over
again have been coming to the store
of A. I. Namm e. Son., BROOKLYN. this
week to hear the lecture which a
trained nurse gives every day from 8
to in the afternoon on the care Of
the child. In conjunction with the lect-
ure an elaborate window exhibit has
been made, showing not only nursery
equipment, but all sorts Of infant
food.
A light and airy room has been ar
ranged on the fourth floor of Saks &
Co. for the new infants department
which opens to the public tomorrow
In this room there has been installed
novel equipment of convenience both
to the mother and the saleswoman.
Glass display cases, made with as lit
tie wood as possible, and glass shelves
have been installed, so that what is
within may be seen, and it will not be
necessary to displace a whole drawer
Oh garments to get the right color.

American setting. AT Wanamaker's

local color as we pleasantly imagine it

The "White" Peril
1t may be that Chinatown has lost
some of its prestige because it is off
the beaten path. But even the ave-

do not succeed in holding custom
They are constantly appearing and dis
appearing until white man drops in

it permanent
SAhhpo tillS is true because the ORR
entail does not understand service as
the American customer likes it. One
finds the clerks Indifferent. They will
tell you that they haven't what YOU
want, and suddenly your own eyeNswill
light upon it in not very remote cor
ner They are slow to show stocks.
And the shops themselves do not carry
the extensive varieties that arc to be
found in American stores. When it
comes to taking an order for some
thing the Indifference of the clerk
amounts many times almost to a re-
fusal. These are things one meets
with continually in the native-run
shops.
American keenness, enterprise and
business skill have easily supplanted
the sy-going, nonchalant Oriental
methods of merchandising
