Mail Order Houses
Facing Big Slump.

These figures on business of the
Chain Stores are eloquent:
In the first six months of 1920, the
Woolworth, Penny, United Cigars,
Kresge, Kress, McCrory and Schultz
stores combined sales amounted to
Sl58,831, 167.
In the first six months of 1921, they
amounted to $160,654,445.
The gain was nearly $22,000000
or more than IA per cent in dollars,
notwithstanding the fact that in the
meantime values have declined moro
than halfway back to prewar levels.
On the other hand. mail order hous-
es have suffered rather severely.
The sales of Sears, Roebuck & Co.,
decreased more than $4,500,000 and
the decrease of Montgomery Ward &
Co., was more than $2,500,000, this
June, or 20 and 81 per cent respect
lively, as compared with June of the
year past Their volume for the six
months was S51 100000 and $4,000,
900 less, respectively, than for the
half year of 1920, or a Sc and 81 per
cent decline.

OF These As Charity

Surely Sinclair hcM.s, the author
of Main Street. was thoroughly ia

and the narrow minded attitude of the
small town populace. Ours is a fast
and furious age and many things are
being done contrary to all rules of
clean and upright living. | am no;

immoral act wilfully committed nor

ors which tend to cheaper or sully
tic otherwise estimable character. |
do however contend that there is one
other crime, frequently sanctioned by
conscientious people, which should be
classed with immortality. carnalism.
drunkenness and dishonesty. This is
gossip. The malicious tongue can
truly be compared with the sting of
serpent and the dire results which
eccrue causes a disease of the mind
oftentimcs more deadly than bodily
ills.
II you cannot speak well of a fell

proper action let another judge. Are
you blameless or in position to
criticize? Think - before you throw
the first stone.
Regulations have been blasted by
Tie shrug of a shoulder the lift of
an eyebrow. The present generation
seems to take a universal delight in
telling something derogatory to ones
character. We do not exercise
enough charity. We all have our
faults and none of us are perfect.
Surely it is only consistent that we
should be charitable and refrain from
a too severe and oftentimes unmerit-
Cd condemnation. Frequently reports
are exaggerated and passed on by US
with no attempt whatever to anthem
ticate the account.

The Dear Old Circus
Coming Next Tuesday

The Dear Old Circus! What flood
OF "reminiscences they bring to the
grown-up. What a world of wonder
ment in the "kid" at his side in the
street, as they both gaze at the pic
tured pageantry fHippodrome and
the Menagerie as pictured on the
neighboring barn. And indeed we
feel sorry for that grown-up too old
or callous or embittered to himself,
forgotten when he himself was a
child; or if he finds no joy in the fact
that the youngsters of his town and
country are to know the thrill, the
fathomless child wonder that comes
to them only on the day when the red
wagons arrive; and the big elephants
and the funny old clowns, the trump
citing bands and the footing steam
calliopes.
Were there ever such wonderful lit
tic ponies, such bespangled girls,
such bewildering funny clowns? That
man is old indeed. whose heart does
not wax to the memory of that long
ego boy who is yet like the boy of to-
day, with his mop of unruly hair, and
Lis quota of sutbbed toes and stone
bruises. Circus Day! There is moth
ing like it under the SIN.
Be boy again, and see the Walter
l.. Main Fashion Plate Shows when it
visits here next Tuesday. Sept. 10.
