QUORUM COURT VOTES FOR DEMONSTRATION
 AFTER vETOING II
Also Makes Appropriation for County Nurse, But Turns Tick Eradica.
 tiOn Down Hard.
MAKE THE USUAL LEVEES

 court, which was in session Wednes day afternoon, made liberal appro- nriations for county demonstration nosition down and after they had earlier in the session turned the pro- position down land after they had shown disposition to refuse friends of the work a hearing before the body Miss Posey, the state agent for canning club work as we'll as others, were present and desired to be heard. When the question came up in the usual order it was put to vote by Judge McCord without any discussion. The appropriation was lost On this vote. Justice Nathan Furlow then rose and stated that Miss Posey was present and for the purpose of being heard. He moved that she be heard. Six voted not to hear her while twelve voted her the courtesy of the floor. The court proceeded to other business and the matter seemed at an end. Be- fore adjournment the question was raised again and again the body voted that Miss Posey be heard. This time she was granted the floor. Mrs. Lon Jones and Jno. J. DuLaney were also heard. A reconsideration was called for and this time the appropria- tion went through with flying colors. Instead of voting the canning club agent $150O as proposed $2,0O0 was voted. For county demonstration $1,- 500 was voted and for the negro de- partment an appropriation of $1,200 was made.
 For County Nurse.
 After a discussion an appropriation of $3,0O0 was made for county nurse. Something of the nature of this work was explained by Dr. York and L. F. Wheelis. The appropriation last year was not sufficient to employ compe- tent nurse.
 Tick Eradication Killed.
 There seemed a sentiment in favor  of limited, or voluntary dipping among members of the court. A discussion brought out the information that this would not be recognized by the gov ernment nor in any way help to lift the quarantine against this county. Friends of Dipping were granted the floor. It was said that large numbers of cattle in this county could find no market and that one man near Rich mond with a herd of 200 had found it impossible to ship them outside our borders, milk cattle were bringing rediculously low prices and the cattle business in this county was at an end until dipping was resumed. The ap- propriation failed with only four VOL ing for it.
 Other Appropriations.
 The other appropriations for rou- tine expenses were made as follows:
 Circuit Court expense $S,O00.
 Chancery court expense $1O0.
 Magistrates court expense $500.
 County Court expense $2,O0O.

ADVERTISE In THE BARRE TIMES

to create consumer demand and
consumer preference. With this de-
mand as fact all selling plans have
chance to succeed. Without it they
fail The only chance for salesman
ship to succeed without an existing
demand is for craftsmanship to assume
the task that belongs to advertising
the task of creating demand.
If the present efforts that are being
put into selling were amply supported
by corresponding effort to create
consumer demand through Advertis-
ing, the business conditions of this
country would be rapidly changed
into an era of great prosperity-in
spite of Old World conditions and
everything else.
The proof of this is in the fact
that right now, under these very con-
ditions, the manufacturers who are
putting proper emphasis on creating
a demand for their product, as well as
selling it, are doing big business and
are actually getting the high turnover
that others are trying so strenuously
to get through intensive selling.

Two Sides of Turnover

The alert business man dealing with
present day conditions knows that
the big word to-day is Turnover"
Whether he be a merchant, manufac-
turer, jobber, or banker, he sees that
one thing with clear vision unbiased
by the limits of his own business. 1t
is in the air, and on the tip of every
tongue.
And yet many of them-entirely
too many-are thinking on only one
side Of Turnover. They think of it as
meaning rapid selling-putting money
in and getting it out quickly and at
a profit. They realize that they must
put greatly increased efforts back
of all their plans for selling and dis,
tribution.
The other half of Turnover is the
consumer. All selling plans and efforts
fail if the consumer doesn't want to
buy. His desire for the product must
be created. He must meet the seller
half way. He must be in mood to
buy before the salesman meets him
across the counter.

nAo,int Of Social Better
meat Has Followed

WINONA LAKE. Ind. Aug. "a
The age old idea that men and wo-
men have different spheres OF inter.
est and activity. mutually exclusive,
is rapidly passing according to Rev.
N. Madeline Southard OF Winfield
Kansas. president of the Internation-
al association OF women preachers,
speaking at the annual meeting ot
the organization here tonight.
"A vast amount OF sanitary and
social bettermeht has come since wo-
MN has taken - active interest.in
public affairs" she said. Women in
legislative and judicial positions have
taught us that women. married or
unmarried, carry the mother view
into these fields and that this IL
enost desirable.
In the past the home. consider
ed woman's exclusive sphere too Of
ten was turned over to her. Mea
shirked responsibility beyond the
pay-check. Sometimes women aen-
led II to them. This is always a dis
tinct loss. Many homes are over
feminizeds Children need the mas
cuiine touch upon. their growing
spirits as well as the feminine. Men
need intimacy with little children
women need the nerve-rest that u
man who take responsibility In the
home gives to them. .s
Also. In the past. men have quite
cheerfully turned the realm OF moral
life over TO women. They have con
sidered II the part OF chtvsiry to play
MP or play down to the standards Of
the woman with whom they found
themselves, insisting that 1t was up
to her.
1T easily followed that men In
this county often turned religion
over to women speaking as though
II we're kind Of feminine attribute.
Without doubt we have a larger pro-
portion OF men today taking moral
responsibility squarely upon them
selves than In centuries gone by. and
there is still plenty OF room for i'm
provement.
