GIVE CAUSE OF FAILURE.

Poor Bookkeeping Brings Loss.

What is the chief cause of business
failures?
This question was put to merchants
throughout the country by the Ma
tional Association of Credit Men, and
10000 gave failure to keep books"
as the answer.
If the business men of the United
States had kept real records of trans
actions the commercial losses during
1918 would not have amounted to
$160.O00,000, in the opinion of j. H.
Tregoe. secretary of the association
Mr.. Tregoe makes the deduction
that most failures occur in cases
where merchants have a capital of
less than $1,000.
AS A result of it's inquiry. the as
sociati0l has prepared for the busi-
'ness men of the country text book,
entitled A Business Enterprise" to
impress upon them the necessity for

Although lumber and building mate

Information obtained by the de-

more than half a million houses be-
hind the demand for dwellings. Those
contractors and builders who are
