We Did It

Whatever the condition Of
business may be today, zoe,
the Public, have made it
exactly what it is.
And, a0e the Public, can
make tomorroW's business
whatever we 1oant it to be.
AS a class, the manufact-
urer cannot do it-nor the dis
tributor or the retailer. You
and I can do it by buying.
We have the po70er-the buy-
ing power. And it takes this
power to turn the wheels of
business and prosperity.
The Lake County times., 1921-02-21

The manufacturer, distrib-
utor or retailer is in a sep
arate class only so far as his
own business is concerned.
In every other relation of life,
he is one Of the great Public,
affected by the same living
conditions that affect you.
Outside his own business,
he is you-a buyer
He joins with you, there
fore, in starting the buying
impulse that sweeps around
the circle. He, like you, buys
the necessities and comforts
of life from a retailer-who
buys from a jobber- who buys
from a manufacturer all of
whom must buy from you (the
Public) the time, skill, knowl-
edge and materials, that the
Public has to sell.
The Lake County times., 1921-02-21
How One Man
Gets The Money He Lives On

Two men were talking
about prices and buying. One
of them made a remarkable
statement. He said:
Il buy what I need today IN
order to get the money to buy
the things [ will need tomor-
roe.
1t did. seem an unusual
statement on the face of it.
But that man was right. He
had thought a little below the
surface had dug down into
the real facts. He explained
it in this way.
The Lake County times., 1921-02-21

If conditions today are not
what you would have them, it
is a simple matter to change
them for the better.
A resumption of buying
starting at the very founda-
ton the bubHc-each and
every one Of us-will bring
good business and prosperity
to us ADJUST as surely as a
tree must cast a shadow in the
sun.
And there is no other way.
The Lake County times., 1921-02-21
Four Factors

When business is good we
are all prosperous because we
are all buying and selling
back and forth.
Business means buying
and buying moves in a circle.
There are four factors in
the Circle Of Buying the
maker, the jobber, the retailer
and you the buyer.
Together, these four fac
tors constitute the Public and
spring from it.
The Lake County times., 1921-02-21
Must Buy to Sell

I've got something to sell
just like a manufacturer or
dealer. I am a Wage-earner,
and | must sell my time, eX-
perience and ability. Some
one must buy it John Jones,
the shoe manufacturer, for
example.
Now, suppose, | quit buy
ing shoes and you quit and
thousands of others. John
Jones is forced to quit making
shoes and how can he then
buy anything from me? How
can I get back some money
f0Hloiyo1o from John Jones, if
| don't bug today and help
him keep his factory going?"
The Lake County times., 1921-02-21

Then business is good And
we all have our share of the
benefits. Business completes
the circle and the public
shares in the benefits of the
buying power it has putin mo-
ton. 1t gets back in wages,
salaries, etc, the money it has
spent, and thus gets the
money to keep on buying.
But when the public doem t
buy the entire system stops.
The retailer, jobber and man
ufacturer cannot buy, either.
And everybody loses the
public, most of all since the
market for its labor, service
and materials is curt2iled by
its own action.
The Lake County times., 1921-02-21
The Answer

IF each of us should today
begin buying wisely and pru-
IDENTIFY the things we need and
want business would be bet
ter t0m01vo7C. And each of
US would benefit.
Prices are more reasonable,
Some have been high-too
high perhaps growing out of
unprecedented times and con-
ditiOns.
But those days are past.
Manufacturing costs have
now reached a lower level.
Manufacturer, jobber and re-
taller are taking their losses
on existing stocks of mer-
chandise and are Offering
fresh stocks at new and lower
prices.
You can buy with conf
dence that these lower prices
are as fair as they are attrac-
tive and with the under
standing that they can be
The Lake County times., 1921-02-21
In a Nutshell

Each of US has something to
sell and must sell it to lice
whether it be labor, service.
materials, or a manufactured
product.
But in order to sell, first you
must buy.
If you buy from someone
else someone else will buy
from you.
But the other fellow can't
keep on buying if you quit.
Jones, the shoe manufacturer,
c0uIdH 't-nO one can!
Buying is an expression of
your faith and confidence in
the country, its institutions
and its business.
1t is likewise the one sound
and constructive way to as
sure your 01On welfare and in
come.

PUBLICITY FOR s

To Extension Of Antitrust

New York, May Rehabilitation
Of the coal industry by publicity
rather than by extension of existing
antitrust laws was urged by Sec
Rotary OF Commerce Hoover in 4
telegram read today at the opening
session Of the annual convention
Of the National Coal association.
1T IL my belief that both the coal
operator and the public will be bet
ter protected by regular, prompt
and monthly publication of funda-
mental facts relating to the coal in
dustTy than by extension of legal
regulations beyond existing anti
trust acts" the message said.
Mr.. Hoover added that publicity
would, to some extent, mitigate ex-
tortionate prices and unduly low
prices BY giving realization to the
great consumers that there IT, nc
fundamental shortage Of supply. on
the one hand. and encouraging them
to take advantage Of the periods oi
repression in production ON thu
other.
II do not imagine that publicity
IL q cure-all to intermittancy or any
other economic ILL.," the message
continued, "but at least it is an as.
sistance towards sounder and more
stable industry.'

LlNTE BILLS
FAIL TO SHAKE
STOCK MARKET

Chicago, May 1s.--Action Of the
wheat market today failed to justify
rumors that a big break IN prices
would result from the passage of
the and-pit bill By the upp6r house
OF the Illinois Legislature. Instead
of Hooking to the bear ode, . ma
jortty Of traders took the view that
any unusual setback in values
would furnish . good opportunity to
bay and that the anti-pit measure
was still = long way from enact
ment. Fresh crop damage reports
from the southwest tended to steady
the market which although ranging
somewhat lower, kept well within
ordinary limits.
Opening quotations, which>varied
from hc to ~ lower. with May
1.4S and July 1.16. to LIT. were fol-
lowed by rallies. that in some cases
brought the market back to the
same as yesterdays finish.
Subsequently the market scored
q material advance, but reports Of
rain in Kansas brought about free
selling and temporary declines. The
close nevertheless was strong, INC
to 4hc net higher. with May $1.52
to S1.53. and July $1.19x to $40.
Corn swayed with wheat. After
opening &c to 1Ac lower, includ-
ing July at 60xc to 61kc, the mar
ket soon recovered most Of the loss.
and for the May delivery reached
yesterdays final figures.

ed as a result of favorable wealth
