an open stoekholders' meeting Of The

the public, with a reckless extrava-

knows it better than the business men
Of Julesburg. The people are buying
just what they need-or what they
think they need, and holding onto the
rest of their money.
The present situation that now con-
fronts the business man means that
he must become q real salesman. He
has to get back of it whether he wants
to or not. The business won't come to
