SUMMER SLUMP
CAN Be CURED
Marshall Field Bulletins Sug-
gest Means Of StimuIat-
ting Sales.

Not few retail merchants look upon
a sharp falling off of sales during the
summer season ms a natural development
They have become reconcilcd TO the idea
that the year has its peaks and valleys,
and that the only way to Offset the losses
OF a dull season is by cashing in on the
opportunities which the busy seasons
offer. In the opinion Of the wholesale
department of Marshall Field Il Co.
this viewpoint is erroneous. 1t is mer-
cbandising fallacy to believe that season.
al slumps are beyond the control of the
retailer
"Sales should not lag during the sum
mer." Marshall Field & Co. contends.
"a very small proportion Of the people
of your community is away during
any given week Of the summer months,
and the great volume Of tourist motor
traffic during the summer presents an
| exceptional opportunity for sales"
This authority characterizes the pro-
verbal summer slump as being
merchandising inertia" The store
that succumbs to it, he declares, is in a
bad way, because the profits made dur.
ing the so-called busy seasons" are
likely to be absorbed by overhead
expenses during the periods of de-
creased rate Of turnover.
The way to overcome seasonal slumps
in the opinion of this field executive, j,
by adopting policy of aggressive selling
methods which will level out the peaks
and valleys He does not claim that sale.
can be made uniform throughout thu
year, but it is his contention that tn,
normally dull months can be brought
much nearer the normally active ones b,
concentrated selling effort, keeping
stocks fresh and complete, maximum
attention to window and interior dis
plays, and intelligent publicity.
