Not a Lay Success.

A young country minister, noted for
his jollity, was dining at a farmhouse

roast chicken was passed to him he re-
marked facetiously, well here's where
that chicken enters the ministry"
Hope it does better there than il
did in lay work" rejoced the bright
boy of the family.

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 a 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.
That is the function Of Advertising

Ito 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 prosperitv--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
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.

The supper committee of st. Johns
parish not only furnishes good eats
but serves them in artistic surround
ings The decorations are in great
variety and the riot of color makes
one forget the glooms. The Westmin-
ster orchestra will add note of joy
this evening and the Comedy film will
do the rest. after the usual fill oys-

les tomorrow evening. The indoor ball
game attracts big crowds. though it is
