The mountain, with it's beautiful tim

Secretary Hoover sees an early re-
turn to normal prosperity, providing,
with the end of the strikes which have
been such a menace to prosperity dur
ing the summer, we can go along for
time without any industrial strife.
1t is indeed unfortunate that a sea-
son which would throughout the

ADVERTISING
is interesting to think what
would happen if all at once business
firms stopped advertising. The result
would be that the enterprising and
successful store, the one that gets
good trade because it serves the pub
lie efficiently would be unable to hold
it's position.
A store of that kind could not show
enterprise in attracting the public,
because the public would not know
what it was doing. People would buy
In haphazard way, largely of the
stores that happened to be nearest to
them. If the enterprising store at
tempted to handle some big lot at low
prices, the public would not know that !
the goods were there, and the sale |
would not be success. This would |
discourage a man from special at |
tempts to serve the public, and he |
would run along in routine way.
The tendency would be for lot of |
small stores to spring up, and get the
trade away from the enterprising peo-
pie that now advertise freely The pub
lie would not know that one store was
better than another, and man could
charge high prices and people would
not have the store advertising by
which they could tell what prices
should be.-Walla Walla Union.
The above would happen, and more
There would be most decided fall
ing off in the volume of business, as
many large concerns, which are nat !
fonal advertisers, have found out by,
experience. Attractive, honest adver-
Using is a builder Of business and is
a permanent institution

that country is the best foreign pa

as Japanese squares" The timber is
purchased in large square sticks,
which the Japanese resaw to meet
their peculiar requirements. During
the first three months of 1922 the ,
