C|TY'S GROWTH
ISOEPENDENT
ON PURCHASERS
Women Exercise Great InfIu-
ence on Communiy's De-
velopment..Since They do 80
Per Cent Of Buying.
Copyright, 1917, Western Newspaper
Union) 4

1t has been said that the hand that
rocks the cradle is the hand that rules
the world and nowhere is this more
literally true than in the world Of
trade. The woman is the purchasing
agent OF the household and man, as a
rule, is very glad to have her handle
the job.
It has been estimated by some stu
dents of the merchandising game that
100 per cent of all retail buying is done
by women. This may be high esti-
mate but visit to the retail stores
of any town or city is enough to con-
vince one that the figures are not too
high. The preponderance of women
among the buyers is sufficient, at any
rate. to make not only the retailer but
the manufacturer and the wholesaler
realize that it is the women that they
must please with their merchandise.
Because they do by far the greater
part Of the buying in any community
the women have responsibility that
they do not always appreciate. The
women of town, through their buy
ing power, can make or break the mer-
chants of town and as natural con-
sequence they can make or break the
town. 1t is in their power to make
| it prosperous town or a dead town.
When the women Of town acquire
the mail order habit, the town may
just as well begin making arrange
ments for its own obsequies.
| Hard to Understand
| just why a woman, who is shop
per by instinct and a shrewd judge
of values in merchandise, should sue
cumb to the lures of the mail order
house it is difficult to understand but,
unfortunately, some of them do. No
one knows better than the woman who
has had some experience in the buy
ing of merchandise how difficult it is
to distinguish between the genuine and
the imitation even after close inspec-
ton. The good shopper, when on
buying bent. does not always take the
first article that is offered for inspec-

ton. In fact this i the exception
rather than the rule. The merchants
know it and expect il. They expect .
woman. il she i good shoppes, to
look around Z little"
If q woman should walk into re-
tail store and purchase the first suit
that she. tried on, for instance, the
shock phobably would prove fatal to
the storekeeper or the saleswoman.
The chances are that she will try on
dozen suits and look at - many
more before she selects one that suits
her taste or pocketbook, and the store
keeper not only expects but wishes
her to do this. He wishes her to be
satisfied as he knows that satisfied
customer is the best advertisement
that he can obtain.
Taking = Chance.
This same woman, however, may or
der suit from mail order house GU
the strength Of nothing more than :
pretty picture and an alluring descrip-
ton. She has not even the opportu-
ity to try it on, to say nothing Of the
Z nance Of examining the fabric, noting
the exact shade of the material and
inspecting the workmanship. She is
taking chances on the suit fitting her,
on, the material being good and dur
able. the shade becoming to her and
the workmanship of such character
that the suit will not fall to pieces.
The woman who takes such chances
cannot be called shrewd shopper.
1t. might be more easily understood
why mere man, unaccustomed and
averse, as rule, to shopping excur-
sions, should fail victim to the cata-
logue habit. He might find it easier
to order from the picture in the cata-
logue than to 60 to a store and look
for the article that he wanted or he
might take the position that he
wouldn't know what he was getting
lany way if he went to the store and
he might as well take chance on the
mail order gamble, but why the won
an who know what she wants and
knows that she is getting what she
wants when she gets it should buy on
the sight unseen" plan-well, that's
another question altogether.
Woman Greatest Opportunity
Women are taking a more and more
prominent part in public affairs all
the time. They are aiding now in
many parts of the country in running
the affairs of state. Even where they
do not have the ballot they are playing
a big part, individually and through
their organizations, in the conduct par
ticularly of local governments, yet in
the one field where they con do most
to help build up their communities
they may be overlooking their oppor-
tunity. With the buying power in
their hands they can do more for their
community by stanchly supporting
their home business men than they
can possibly do in any other way. n
Man may think he is very impor-
tant element in the progress and devel-
opment of his town but when he re-
fleets that 80 per cent Of the buying
power Q. the community Is in the

First to Announce

Wallace E. Shumway of the
village of Shumway is the first
man in Navajo county to fling
his hat in the political arena for
county office. He should be
given special mention for show
ing his nerve in breaking the
ice. = Mr.. Shumway is wanting
the office Of Assessor and is will
ing to trust his claims for the
nomination to the. democratic
voters at the primaries in Sep
tember. He is thoroughly quail
fed for the place, having given
entire satisfaction while serving
as deputy assessor in 1918. Mr..
Shumway, although practically
a young man. has resided in
Navajo county for over thirty
years, and has. been a member
of the democratic county central
committee for ten years or more.
He is we'll known throughout
the county and has many friends
who agree to put him through"
the primaries a winner. His an
nonncement appears elsewhere

The Herald Is Seven
Years Old Today

With this issue the Herald en-
ters on the seventh year of its
life. While it is true the paper
has not made any money, yet it
has been fortunate in being able
to meet all of its obligations
so far.
We expect to make quite few
improvements in the Herald in
the near future increase the
amount of reading matter, and
add more up to date material to
the plant, provided the support
of the people will justify it.
1t is fortunate indeed that the
people of this section can boast
of newspaper in their midst in
these high cost of everything
days. Many country papers have
closed their shops by not being
able to stem the tide. +" We
hope, however, the people will
awaken to the fact that for the
Herald to continue, for it to
grow, a more generous and lib
eral support than heretofore will
be needed for it to exist in these
irving times.
