FRED P. MANN SECURED
TO SPEAK HERE SEPT. II.
Noted North Dakota Merchant
Will Address Merchants at
Next Monthly Meeting

Fred P. Mann of Devils Lake, North
Dakota, a man of national charact-
er, who stands out as probably one
Of the most successful small town
merchants in the United States has
been secured to address the merchants
of Bemidji at their next monthly meet
ing to be held in the Civic and Com
merce Association rooms September
18TH,
His talk will be on "The present
day conditions in Merchandising, "
"Plans for promoting business"
"Something for. clerks on salesman
ship" "a general discussion on the
Merchants problems" and "The adj
vantage of CONSTANT advertising"
In addition to the above he will
touch upon the cash and credit sys-
tenn of doing business and will throw
the meeting open for an informal dis
cussion and an exchange of ideas.
One thing about Mr.. Mann, while
he is privileged to travel about the
country considerably, and is much
sought as a speaker before CONNER
cial bodies, he is always alert for new
ideas, and is big enough to give credit
to the other fellow for some of the
good things that have come into his
life.
Mr.. Mann learned ealry in his bus
mess career that it is onething for a
merchant to fill his shelves with a
stock of goods and quite another to
sell them, and sell them quickly at a
reasonable profit. He appreciates
the fact that the merchant who makes
but two or three turn overs of stock
a year must either sell at higher
price or not make the profit he must
have if he is to continue in business,
for all successful business must have
profit, or quit

TO REDUCE NAVAL RESERVE.
Congress Refuses Necessary ApprOpria
ton TO Maintain 1t.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30. From
September 30 all inactive members of the
naval reserve force, whether confirmed or
provisional, will be disenrolled Approx
imately $4,000 men are affected.
This announcement was made yeSter-
day by Secretary of the Navy DENLY.
The action was due to the failure of con
gress' to appropriate an adequate amount.
The navy department asked for $4,000
600 and congress appropriated $1,000
600, enough to maintain the reserve force
intact three months.
Secretary DENLY said he regretted the
necessity for the action, but expressed
confidence that many of those affected by
the order would continue their connection
with the naval reserve without compen'
Sation.
Ladies of quality originally wore
masks either to protect their complex
ions from the burning sun or out o
modesty TO prevent them from beinl
recognized while out of doors.
