"Buy Somethlnu!" "

Sir-Thc common topic among people in

Of expenditure and the sacrifice OF millions
Of human lives? Or must we seek the cause
Of It in the money spending mania OF tho
American people? or, are there other
causes
1t Is difficult to point to any particular
thing and say Here We have IT," What
good would II do us. even though We should
find tn" cause and be able to lay hold OF IL?
The satisfaction OF knowing this would be
OF no particular help. What We want to
know and must know Is, How nre we going

During the last few years the common
slogan has been Save! Save! Save and
this saving idea has been preached. In sea

duCed any business. II takes the spender
TO make and keep times good: therefore, ~
we are to see better times money must be

As the slogan UP 10 this time has been

that tn" merchants OF the city get tcse ether
