MEN AND STYLE

Formerly there were great
many men who were very anxious
about having the latest styles OF
clothing They inquired anxiously
when making purchases or order
ing clothes, as to what details of
dress were the correct thing at
that particular time, and felt
shamefaced if they wore a certain
cut after it had become somewhat
passee.
The swell dressers of society
may still show this strong desire
to conform to the prevailing
mode. But there is a great num-
Der of men, probably more than
ever before, who take what is
handed out to them as the cor
rect thing without inquiry. or
caring whether it is swell or not.
What they desire is something
that is comfortable, good fitting
and will retain its good appear
ance. The day when politicians
and business men thought they
must wear "plus hats in order to
make a dignifed appearance, long
since passed.

Throwing Out the Old Men

The complaint is sometimes
made that business concerns throw
out their older men with little hu-
man feeling, letting them go sc
that younger fellows with more
pep and push can come in and
make things go.
Many firms however, are doing
their best to make use of their old
er employees, and they find that
these fellows have their own value.
They may not as a rule be quite
as good in initiating new plans
and starting new enterprises. But
if they have been with a firm for
some time, their experience has a
tremendous value, and will save
many mistakes.
The firm that does take care of
its older employees who have been
with it for considerable time, ac-
quires a splendid reputation, and
people like to enter such an en-
ployment. The result must be to
make a body of employees loyal,
and to unite the whole force in
measures of hearty cooperation.

HEALTH TRAINING

About the best thing that the
public schools can do for a child
is to send him out into the world
with healthy body. You can
stuff his head with book knowledge
but if he leaves school with seri-
Gus physical defects, his life is in
danger of being a failure.
School pupils should have regu-
lar medical inspection with effort
to secure correction of remediable
defects. There should be syste-
matte instruction in hygiene. Chill
dren should be taught the advant-
age of fresh air, they should be
shown the necessity of eating nu-
tritious foods instead of over IN
diligence in sweets, they should
be warned against the common
unsanitary practices. instruction
of this kind has more to do with
the success of their lives than
much proficiency in book learning

IL Advertising was stopped

70 Some people have always argued
the advertising adds to the cost OF
goods, and that the firm that cut
out this form of expense could sell
cheaper
1t is interesting to think what
would happen if all at once busl-
ness firms stopped advertising,
The result would be that the en-
terprising and successful store,
the one that gets a good trade be-
cause it serves the public efficient
ly, would be unable to hold its pos
ition.
A store of that kind could not
show enterprise in attracting the
public, because the pubic would
not know what is was doing. Peo-
pie would buy in haphazard way
! largely of the stores attempted to
handle some big lot at low prices,
the public would not know that
the goods were there, and the sale
would not be a success. This would
discourage a man from special at
tempts to serve the public, and he
would run along in a routine way.
The tendency would be for
lot of small stores to spring up,
and get the trade away from the
enterprsing people that now ad-
vertise freely. The public would
not know that one store was bet
ter than the other and a man could
charge high prices and people
would not have the store advertis-
ing by which they could tell what
prices should be.
Merchants would find that it did
not pay to hold special sales as
the public would not notice them
much if they were held. The CON
slant stream of trade that has
been flowing through enterprising
stores would dwindle down. When
a store sees its volume of trade
fall off, the charge per article for
retail distribution has to be in
creased. The cost of distributing
stuff could be expected to double
under such system, and there
would be lack of the SPECIAL OPP
portunities by which the thrifty
buyer now saves money.
