ThE Jig Is UP

We were asked the other day why
We haven't pulled off that evenings
discussion on Main Street. 10 which
all readers OF the book within reach
would be invited.
Frankly speaking. We are waiting
until local police force is increased
We have found that trying TO discuss
Main Street with too many people is
like trying 20 discuss the Irish uues-
ton impassionateiy. Unfortunately
too much personality enters into the
discussion Our experience IL that
most small town folks think the booi,
Is an outrage and most city folks
think IL is a whale Of a book But
the revered editor Of our valued Re
publican is invited to take another
guess when he remarks that Main
Street already is on its way 10 OBJ

We by Associated Press dispatch that it
has been ascertained result of figures obtained
by the National Retail Clothing Dealers association.
through questonnaire. the price Of clothing and
mems furnishing goods have fallen from 80 per
cent from peak prices
We think that the slump in Phoenix prices has
been considerable greater than that and believe
also that the Phoenix peak high as
the average peak in the country at large
Persons who made companions of prices in both
the Pacific coast and cities during the two
period high prices reported that prices were
lower here than anywhere else. Their comparisons
were Of made in well known nationally adver-
tised lines, for comparison be made in no other
way. One not look at ordinary suit of un-
known brand in one store and later another in
another store either in the town or in another
thousand miles away form reasonable idea
Of comparative worth But when he sees certain
brand Of clothing in store and smother suit OF
the same brand, he need not be expert to make
= comparison.
Travelling statesmen who visited Phoenix during
those two years confirmed the judgment Of private
Investigators who had compared prices home with
those abroad. What of clothing was true
during that high pr1ce. period Of drygoods gener-
ally especially in the matter of womens garments
For some dating from the very earliest days.
Phoenix women intending to 90 the coast put off
their purchases to better prices garments
In Los Angeles and San Francisco. We remember that
year ago. Phoenix woman early seasonal Wis.,
itor to the coast following that hon
orable practice OF making purchases abroad wrote
back to her friends advising them to equip them
selves at home. They could do better in prices she
said, and equally well in style
This reminds us Of story running in the
Saturday Evening Post. West of Broadway" The
heroine. movie actress, who believed the whole
country west of Manhattan to be barbarous set out
automobile tour to the Pacific coast She
supplied herself with the metropolis part of
her mission to civilize and Americanize swath
the continent In almost every town and vii
Iage where she stopped. she found in shop windows
replicas OF her latest garment
It pays to buy at home, and it pays, and for at
least the years it has paid to buy Phoenix
where prices have been lower than anywhere else.
