BUYER FOR RETAIL SHOP
HOLDS ONE OF THE MOST
ATTRACTIVE POSITIONS
- : - = Beeonr..l

" iAzt 1nrt Ian Become j
Leading among the most attrac-
tive occupations for girls is that
OF the buyer for a large retail store
such as a millinery shop or depart
nlent store II IS a position that
means numerous trips TO the style
ccnters Of the country, and even
the world IL means meeting ever
so many people and It offers a very
neat income In fact, Il IS one OF
the best paying positions open to a
considerable number OF girls.
A buyer m a store IS usually
manager OF her department She
runs the department as econOm-
ically as possible and usually takes
3 care OF the advertising and display
ing of her goods. Also, It IS her
duty 20 keep IN close touch with the
sales All this makes It necessary
fer the buyer to have some expert
enoe as a saleSwoman-
In the larger Ctores-and many
of the smaller-there is not only
a head buyer. but an assistant
Then there is someone who Is head
Of the stock, and of course, there
are the saleswomen. With all these
people In each department eagerly
striving 10 earn a buyer-ship the
competition IS keen. The girl who
aspires TO the position must neces-
sarily be of executive ability, be
a real worker, have a great store
Of nervous energy. good taste and
a strong body. IL Is the girl who
IS alert and who has enough stick
to-itiveneSs that stands the big
chance.
One of the advantages OF the
position of the buyer is that a girl
who holds it need not be a college
graduate TO succeed Any number
of the most successful buyers IN the
country today worked up through
the successive stages Of cash girl
,salcSgiri, head of stock, assistant
buyer and finally reached the much
coveted position OF buyer, with only
a high school education

When Mrs. Housewife
Buys the Sunday
Dinner

In the days when prices were lower
than they are now, Mrs. Housewife
went over to the corner grocery on
Saturday afternoon and bong what
ever she could find that would make
mice Sunday dinner.
She bought promiscuousfy-a little
of this little of that Before she went
to the store she, perhaps. had little idea
of just what food was going to be
served at that Sunday dinner-the
meal that Is the biggest one of the
week In most families.
But today Mrs. Housewife buyo diff
ferently. Higher prices and the ad-
vancement of the culinary art to a
science has caused this change IN hex
method of buying.
She does her buying as systematical-
ly as she does her cooking. She knows
pretty well in advance just what is go
ing to grace the table for that Sunday
dinner. She plans it we'll and she
knows just the exact amount of vege-
tables, -four, eggs and the many,
many other necessary things, needed
to make that dinner a success-and she
takes just as much pride in making
that dinner a success as her husband
does In making his business success,
After the dinner has been planned
she starts her buying systematic
buying. She knows that the wide
awake grocers and butchers adv-r-
tise so she looks to their stores as the
place where she can find the best quail
ity at the best price. She knows. too.

HARDING SOUNDING uORLD
Secret Negotiations DIscIosed---Ad-
nninistration Hopes VIII Lead to
Cutting Down Armament.

Washington.-Infor responses OF
a favorable character have been re-
ceived here from several Of the gov
ernments to which the United States
recently addressed informally the sug-
gestion for international negotiations
regarding disarmament.
Although nothing Of definite
character has been done in the way of
actual diplomatic discussions, the iu-
timations received here are under
stood to have encouraged the admin
istration in its preliminary steps to-
wards disarmament conference. 1t
was indicated that considerable time
might be required to actually bring
such a conference about but that, Of
ficials thought the situation was de-
veloping as rapidly as could reason
ably be expected.
1t was not revealed from what ma.
tions the responses had come nor ex-
actly how definite they had been.
Since the subject was broached by
this government. however, officials
have been careful to describe it as
wholly informal and as intended only
to lead up to aEmore concrete discus
sion later. X. sl,.

House Republicans VIII Meet Thurs
day to Consider Reapportionment.
Washington House republicans
will hold conference to consider re-
apportionment of congressional repre-
sentation on the basis Of the 1910 CEN
sus. The discussion is expected to
embrace the proposal Of Representa-
tive Tinkham, Massachusetts. that the
number of representatives from south
ern states be decreased on account of
disfranchisement of negroes.
Representative Towner, Iowa, the
republican conference chairman, said
that Mr.. Tinkham had submitted a
petition with the requisite number OF
signatures for calling a conference.
Another petition, he said. has been
filed by representative Barbour, Cali
fornia, requesting party discussion OF
reapportionment generally.
