BUSINESS BETTER
IN EASTERN CITIES
H. J. COSSE OF THE RIVERSIDE
RETURNS FROM EAST WITH
ENCOURAGING REPORT

That business conditions are inn
proving all over the country is the
belief of II. j. Gosse, manager of
the Riverside Hotel, who has Just
returned from a five-weeks' trip in
which he visited practically every
big city in the country.
Mr.. Gosse left Reno November 8
and went to Denver, where he
joined delegation Of hotel men
who were on their way to a hotel
mems convention in New York City.
The party left Denver in a special
car and stopped at large cities en-
route, adding recruits as they went
along.
II found hotels crowded in the
big eastern Cities" says Mr.. Gosse.
"and there seems to be a spirit of
returning confidence in business
circles. The armament conference
now in session at Washington is
being watched with great interest
and its successful termination will
aid materially in restoring pros
perity."
Mr.. Gosse visited Washington,
d. c., and after leaving Washington
returned to Reno by way of New
Orleans, Ell Paso, Los Angeles and
San Francisco.
Mr.. Gosse was accompanied by
his wife and daughter.

During the past few years an at

However, the recent heavy fall of
snow will result seriously to the
birds unless some attempt is made
to feed them and the Record-Courier
has been asked to appeal to the
farmers to throw out little feed
where conditions require. This was
done two years ago and no doubt
the farmers will repeat their gem
erosity this winter.
