BEST CIRCULATION
IN OWN COMMUNITY
Spending Money Away From Home
Town Does Not Benefit Our Mer-
chants.--Bolster Flood Gates.

Some men and women spend their
money away from home because they
think they are putting it into circu-
Iation."
They are sincere In their belief that
they are serving a real economic pur.
pose by taking the trolley or the train
periodically and buying the things
they need in some metropolis of the
state. An eloquent stranger from the
city in question has explained the
matter to them in great detail and
perhaps with some logic.
Or they have read the printed arg,,.
ments sent out by big dividend pay
ing mail-order house in distance part
of the country.
In either case, the advice never
comes from any fellow townsman of
theirs who has the interests of the
home town at heart.
That is point to be remembered
Put Coin Into Motion.
1t is true that such buyers, by carry
ing their money cut of town in per
son, or sendiag it out by money-order,
are putting their money into motion.
That is one step in the process of cir
culation as it is known by economists
and business men. The dictionary
says in defining circulation: Motion
around or through something, back to
the starting point"
Nothing comes back in the kind of
circulation" they are trying to put
under way. Value received would
come back to the community. ii it
were the right kind of circulation.
That is the theory of all sound bust
ness. Nothing must be lost in the
cycle, whether the return is in money
or in kind.
The money, or the purchasing
power, that is in small community
is Fike the reservoir of water that is
stored up behind a dam. The big.
city market is the lowland into which
the river drains when the sluice-
gates are lifted, Every time some
member of the community carries his
money away, the water level is low.

the corn is lost.
Old Saying Truthful.
And 1t is as true here as in the old
saying, that THE mill will never
grind with the water that has passed 4"
We are getting into theory here.
but II is the theory on which all
sound business life is based, and our
readers must be set straight on this
point if the big campaign of com.
munity education which is being car.
ried on in The News is to succeed.

There can be no true circulation I'M
der the circumstances any more than
water can flow uphill
Why?
Because there is nothing in the
smaller community to attract the nee
essary return current
Let us put the case concretely:
You earn your money in Wauwatosa.
1t is the heart-blood of the communi-
tvs life. Instead of buying what you
need at the Wauwatosa stores, so as
to keep the money in circulation at
home, and thus helping to maintain
healthy business life. you drain
these industrial corpuscles out of the
system. Every such drain weakens il.
And you pay more than you pay at
home for the same merchandise, as
We will prove to you subsequently in
this weekly issue of educational ar
tieles.
Nothing Comes Back.
Now. the money is out. What
comes back from this expenditure
made in the distant big city by your
Wauwatosa money?
Nothing-absolutely nothing.
Your Wanted circulation" is
myth. The big city is seIf-sufficing.
Wauwatosa has nothing makes moth
ing and raises nothing that the metro.
politan neighbor must have. Wauwa-
tosa cannot supply anything that hun

cannot supply. Wauwatosa shoppers
in person or by mail--are cultivated
so long as their money holds udt
after that they are no longer wanted.
Profit in Transfer.
There is profit in every transfer of
merchandise. You buy coat or a
pound of prunes and the merchant
gets little more than he pays for
these goods, because he deserves to
be paid for the service he renders you.
There are risk and enterprise involved
on the one hand. and there are help
fuiness aud service on the other. This
profit is merchants living. You pay
profit TO the out-of-town merchant, as
well. But you pay more for less serv-
ice. There is your trip to pay for. if
you run in to the city, and there is the
risk you run buying 'unsightunseen"
Gas the boys trading jack-knives say)
If you deal with the mail-order house.
In both cases, there is the greater
overhead to pay. owing to higher
rents, insurance, greater cost of labor
expensive advertising and scores of
other expenditures that the home
town merchant does not have.
The hometown merchants profits
are spent in Wauwatosa. They ulti-
mately reach you again. Your money
comes back 10 you the starting
point of this business circulation. :"
Buying at home is the only salvation
there is for the business life of wau-
watosa. The same principle is in.

bors. This city must profit by their
example, and every man, woman and
child must stand shoulder to shoulder
with the home merchants to maintain
our economic independence.
Next week we will consider another
phase of the problem.

pre-war prices for many American
things.
But high prices and the difficulties
of doing business were not the only
things that disappointed the American
travellers Some of them came not TO
do business at ali, but TO look into the
general financial and business condi-
tions on which all business must de-
pend. They came, in other words. to
talk with bankers and manufacturers
and get their point of view. to look
with their eyes into the business situa-
ton and prospects.
And it was precisely this class of
investigators that took the most cheer
less view of Germany's plight. The
situation was regarded by them as far
worse than they had expected and as
offering but slight prospects for any
early Improvement of a substantial
character.
What impressed them most was pre-
cisely the depreciation OF the currency
already mentioned, together with the
fact that nobody could give any au-
thentic grounds for expecting an i'm
provement in it. Not only the depre-
citation of the mark, but also its violent
fluctuations In value, seemed TO them
TO exclude all hope for Germany to
get substantial financial assistance
from abroad, for neither lender nor
borrower could undertake the risk in
volved.
Pessimism Everywhere.
This situation made a deep impress
sion upon such Americans as were
able to comprehend its significance
Moreover, there was a general atmos-
phere of pessimism here that strongly
influenced their minds-pesSimism as
to business and politics. pessimism as
TO taxation schemes and specialization
programs, pessimism as TO the labor
situation. pessimism as TO the ultimate
outcome of peace negotiations Alto
gether. therefore. the conclusion was
reached that Germany is In a far
worse position than is believed by
Americans at home.

TOM MIX HEADS UNUSUALLY BIG PALACE BILL, SUNDAY

Tcti .A.X has clearly demonstrated hi; ability as Il purely American actor Of unbounded drawing power Not 2 day passes that the general offices of the Fox Film Corporation does not receive numerous letters and telegrams from exhibitors all over the country clamoring for more Mix pictures. Mix is good, Mix is big and they like him!
 The popularity of Tom Mix is not due to any sensational or matinee idol reasons Tom Mix is popular with the great American public for the reason that he is American to the core. He typifies the great West as nobody else ever has or ever can. He is able to portray the free and untrammelled son of the plains in way that fully realizes the imagination of the American people.
 In his latest play entitled Flight ing for Gold he has surpassed al. his former stunts of horsemanshil, and daredevilshness, in fact, he is one of the screen stars who never fakes his falls.
 The Pathe Review at the Palace commencing Sunday matinee is some thing new to Juneau. It is entirely different from the Pathe News and features many hand colored pictures
