The six reel feature film, "Getting
the Most Out of Retailing" will be
presented for the first time in New
berry on Wednesday night, June %,
at $3.50 o'clock in the new court
house. In connection with the film,
a lecture on retail merchandising will
be given. All merchants and sales
people in the city are invited to at
tend. No charge will be made for ad-
mission.
Mr.. w. S. Matthews, secretary of
the chamber of commerce, has secured
the film and merchandising lecture
through the courtesy of the National
Cash Register company of Dayton,
Ohio. Mr.. w. F. Brennan, expert
lecturer of the Dayton company, will
be the speaker. The lecture has been
highly commended. Causes for losses
and failures in retail business are
shown, and their remedy told IN the
lecture, which has been prepared from
the experience of that company in It's
thirty-six years of dealing with mer-
chants in all parts of the world.
A prominent place in the lecture is
given to the value of newspaper ad-
vertising. Mr.. Brennan will tell how
to prepare newspaper copy, how to Sc
cure best results, and why a merchant
should advertise continually. Win
dow display, efficiency of CLERKS, sell
ing methods, and other topics of in
terest to merchants will also be dis
cus5eC
TIL film tells in vivid manner the
story merchant who is near fail
ure. AS the film progresses, the rea-
sons for his lack of success become
plain. Poor arrangement of goods,
an unattractive front, and most Of
all. out-of-Gate business methods, all
contributed their quota of loss. FL
nally change comes in the career Of
the merchant. He remodelS his store,
installs a modern system, does more
advertising, and rapidly rises TO sue
cess.

great deal of II is entirely without

such OF II that plainly seeks to dis
