Ideas Wanted!

The article printed Just above brings to mind
very important fact. It's this: We want ideas
which will serve to make our store more salts
flying, more comfortable, more serviceable to the
shoppers of Fairmont and vicinity.
We're long way from gu rgoal of perfect SER
vice-we'rei a long way. possibly, from really
pleasing every person who visits us.
We freely admit our faults and failings-we're
but human, after all.
But just between you and us (conhdentia1g
speaking. as 1t were), our store is improving and
advancing and broadening; we seem to be pleas
Ing few more patrons each day: it sort of looks
as IL We are striking the popular chord in mer-
chandising.
Our constant efforts to be worthy member
OF Fairmont's good business set are proving re-
suitful, 1t appears.
But what We do want are the ideas from our
patrons which will assist us to grow more bene-
fetal and valuable in our community.
Maybe you, who are reading this, can think
of something which will better our store services
Maybe you would like to give us suggestions.
They would be sincerely welcomed.

we do.

Because, as rule. when we start to find fault
with everything and everybody we usually forget

Nine times out of ten If we had good big
mirror to look in we would discover where the

That's why We never knock" our comeptitors.
We're too busy correcting our own faults Then,

much bad in the best of us that It hardly be-

RUSSIAN INACTIVITY Is
 CAUSING Fl. (. OF LIVING

SAN FRANCISCO, May li-- Rus sia was described as q great producer and consumer and holds extraordinary opportunities for America after the collapse of the BoIsheviki, by former Secretary Redfieid, now president of the Russian chamber of commerce, in a statement announced here.
 The present high cost of living iS ascr.bcd to Russian inactivity. Her failure to export 5OO,O0O,OOO bushels of wheat caused the raise in the plicc of flour here. Her 6.OO0,0OO calfskjns no longer available, keeps up the plice ot shoes. The absence of her oil sup plies puts gasoline up, and linen iS driven from the market because Rus sian flax is unavailable. America should take a leading part in the re- habitation of the Russian railways, which need million dollars in equip ment.

PRESIDENT
 GAVE OK.

WASHINGTON, May 14- White House officials said the Presidents wartime address to the Atlantic fleet and the cablegram to Admiral Sims, laid before the Senate committee in- vestigating the charges made by Sims were given to the committee by Dan ieIs with the full consent of President Wilson. In both the address and the cab'cgram President Wilson criticised the British Admiralty.
 Secretary Daniels, today in testi- mony before the committee, ridiculed the charges of Sims that 800 900 lives had been sacrificed through the Amer ican navy. Secretary Daniels said there never was time when tonnage was not available to carry troops and supplies to France as fast as they could be loaded and landed and sent to the front. The complete co-opera- tion of the army and navy, testified Secretary Daniels, shortened the war.
