THE WISE MEN OF NEOSHO.

The town of Neosho, Nc, is not
large, but its business men are pro-
gressive and they have made money
out of an idea. About 10 years ago
they conceived the belief that all of
the. stores of such a community might
be compared to large city depart
ment store. They found that IL they
would all advertise at the same time,
in the same place and in similar
manner, they could make a more Ia
vorable impression.
Once a month, according to the
plan, they advertised a Special Sales
Day" with a series of unusually at
tractive offers of merchandise, price
usually being the basis of appeal to
the thrifty farmer.
Thorough Investigations showed
that the special sales resulted in a 90
per cent increase in business on the
special sales days, and business was
not injured either on the days pre-
ceding and following the sales days
Varying gains were shown by the
stores for Saturdays and week days
other than the Special days.
Neosho has no free band concerts
to draw trade. 1t gives nothing
away. Its business men have pro
ceeded on the theory that what the
customer wants is good goods for thu
money and fair and friendly treat
ment.
So much for NeoshO.
When all tell the truth. neither thu
community nor the individual will
be commended for doing it. Thu
public will take it as matter o
course--The Nations Business TO

HIGH PRICES FOR HIGH TIMES.

How shall we define normal
price" today? Are these times nor
NAL? And prices, moreover, have no
fixed relation to prosperity. What
we call the cost of living has actually
no real relation to prices. For while
the present price level is high, the
human effort that must be put forth
to live, which is the actual "cost OF
living" is as low as it ever has been
far lower for us than ever in any
one country in the history of the
world-simply because in most cases
a days work will buy as much and
some times more than before the
war and because a given amount of
labor will secure an amount of neces>
stiles and luxuries that men, say rs
years ago, never dreamed of possess.
ing.
There is no doubt that salaried
people and unorganized laborers have
suffered from the fuctuating dollar
and that spectators have made tenn
porary large winnings. but. by and
large, the cost of living in the sense
of this country's productiveness, the
yield Of its natural resources, the
accessibility of its supplies brought
about by the vast network of distri
button, is on an excellent basis.-The

AMBASSADORS OF TRADE.

Britain's much discussed plan for
trade ambassadors" already has
been put into effect. This overseas
exploitation scheme was conceived in
1916 simultaneously with the plan
for organization of the Federation Of
British Industries. The federation
includes practically every large man
ufacturer in the British Isles; small
er concerns now recovering their
equilibrium are joining by the dozens
weekly. The overseas trade depart
ment of the federation-the foreign
Office from which the trade ambassa.
doris are accredited-is under the
direction Of brisk young army officers
demobilized early because of their
trade fitness.

description to apply to the, trade

erect a public building, and invites
bidders for the supply of steel, cleo

which Immediately reports to inter-

The overseas trade department
