An interesting commentary is
found in the variety of c~onveyanrcs
used by mentioning America. The
Yellowstone public automobile camps
throughout the season presented a
more comprehensive ~"automobile

der auditorium or showroom roof.
There were 1913 makes of automo-
biles represented in the motor travel
and among them vas to be found an
amazing variety Of individual ideas
as to the most convenient vehicle for
following the open road. There were
innumerable adaptations of modern
touring cars into houses on wheels,
and innumerable variations of the
travelling automobile camp outfit;
not to mention motorcycles, ancient
and modern hOrse-drawn convey
ances and those adventurous folk
who found the greatest enjoyment
touring the country on foot.
The largest travel entering the
park in a single day in Yellowstone
history was on July 23rd. when 1888
visitors entered the park. The larg-
est rail was on June Goth, when 1928
visitors reached the park gates by
the three railroads serving the park.
In view of h increase in travel.
with. its indications of even greater
increase in the future, extensive ad-
ditions in the hotel and camp ac-
commodations in the national park
are being made for 1923. Compre-
hensive improvements are also being
made in the sanitation and extension
of the public automobile camps.
A large amount of road develop
ment work for the convenience and
accommodation Of the automobile
travelling public has been undertaken
in 1922 and a considerable portion
of it will be pressed to completion in
time for the 1928 season. In addi~
ton to the continuous upkeep and
improvement Of the road system
within the park. the approach roads
in the surrounding forest reserve and
in the states adjacent to the park,
are to have the benefit of extensive
improvements at the expenditure Of

levied Il duty Of two cents a pound

CHAMPIONS COMING
 TO PLAY FOR ALASKA TITLE

The victorious Cordova baseball boys, who have cleaned up all the teams along the coast, will arrive in Nenana tomorrow morning for 8 series of games with the Nenana champions for the baseball title of the Territory. At least four and pos sibly five games will be played here, the opening meeting being scheduled for tomorrow evening at six o'clock
 The second game will be played on Saturday evening, the third game on Sunday afternoon, the fourth game Monday evening, and the fifth game, should that number of games be played, will take place Tuesday afternoon in order that the visitors may leave on the return trip to the coast on the Tuesday evening train.
 Final arrangements for the series were made al meeting of players and fans last night, and Manager Mike Cooney IS busy today putting the ball park in condition for the opening match.
 The Cordova team captured the series at Anchorage, winning three straight games from the railroaders. The Anchorage boys did not get a run in the opening game, the score was 5 to l the second game and 1 to 8 in the final game yesterday.
 In order to insure the appearance of the visitors on the local diamond 1t was necessary for Nenana to guarantee the sum of S1,000.
 The baseball club will give a dance at Union Hall on Saturday night for the purpose of raising funds, and 1t is the intention to make the dance a big social affair, with the best of music and every

thing else necessary to insure the success of the undertaking. The ladies of the town will provide and serve refreshments during the hop.
 Inasmuch as the Cordova boys do not plan to go to Fairbanks on the present trip, 1t is possible that the fans of the upper town will ar range an excursion to Nenana for Sunday in order that they may wit ness at least one of the champion ship games. The opportunity will be one seldom obtained in this section of Alaska, and it Is expected that fans will swarm to Nenana from all directions.
 The lineup of the Nenana team for the opening game has not been definitely selected, but the boys are on their toes and eager for the meeting.
 On those evenings on which games will be played. the shows at the Coliseum will start at S:3O instead of S:0O.

Encouraged.

Closer cooperation between pas

by four laymen at the Ministerial
Alliance meeting in the Y. NJ c. A.
this morning.
Encouragement in the work
which the ministers are doing was
given the members by W. B. McIn-

power of the pulpit and a closer
relationship between the congrega-
ton and pastors, which is needed
in order to make the power of the
pulpit felt, was explained by DR..

e. B. McKown stated that the
word of Christ should be taught
from the pulpit, and that other mat

BUSINESS men
| HEAR LECTURE
/ BY pep MAN


THE average business life of the
average retailer is about six years, "
said Howard J. Wisehaupt. Cleve-
land, Ohio, nationally known as
-the pep man" who inaugurated a
course of five lectures last night
IN the Rock Island Chamber Of
Commerce rooms.
THE business life of the average
grocer Is less than three years, "
continued Mr. Wisehaupt, who an
bounced that during Better Bust
ness Week" his talks would be
about the human side of business
as factor in successful retailing.
He hoped, he said, to tell the bust
ness men of Rock Island, how to
avoid the possibility Of failure.
Habits of People, and the Use
Of the Imagination" was the subject
Of his opening lecture.
'The successful business man to
day is the man who has analysed
every phase of his business, and
the successful salesman is the man
who has just as thoroughly analy-
zed the human side of his prospec-
tive customer" he said.
The speaker affirmed that IS per
cent of ones actions are similar,
and the same habits daily govern
ones lives The salesman, he
claimed, who analyses these habits
and actions successfully, has learn
ed the intricacies of human nature,
and will be more able to approach,
convince and thoroughly sell him
self and his product to his pros
pect.
On the Shady Side.
Mr.. Wisehaupt told his hearers
that human nature governs bust
ness. For example, the stores on
the shady side of the street do
more business than those on the
sunny side because it has been esti-
mated that "a per cent more peo-
pie walk on the shady side of the
street.
THE value of suggestion" said
the lecturer, has been clearly in
dicated in the case of a merchant
who has a fixed rule among his en-
ployes to suggest to a customer
buying at one counter that a GER
tain shipment of attractive mer-
chandise has Just arrived in the
store and is on display in anoth-
er department. The customer, act
The Rock Island Argus and daily union. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1920-1923, 1922-05-09

ing on the suggestion, in many cas-
es purchases the merchandise sug-
gested with the result that this
practice has increased the merch-
ants business many thousands of
dollars each year"
1t is his claim that the mental
attitude of people makes good or
bad business. The habits of Gus
toners must be studied. he asserts.
Merchants ought to know much
more about their customers than
they do.
He said last night that where
there are really good stores, the
people will always buy.
AS yet Mr.. WiseSaupt has framed
no itinery outside of his night lee
lures But he spoke to the high
school yesterday, and it is posi-

CALLS UPON SHOPMEN
TO RETURN TO WORK
President Has New Plan To Set
tie Strike-Morrow Goes To
Investigate Situation
(By Associated Press)

Washington, Aug. president
Harding today called upon the
striking railroad shopmen to re-
turn to work. He requested the
railroads to assign them to work
and asked both workers and car
riers to submit the disputed ques-
ton of seniority to the Railroad
Labor Board.
The President sent kilograms
to heads of unions outlining his
plan which, he hopes, will result
in a speedy termination of the
strike. The message. asked both
parties to the dispute to agree to
comply with decisions rendered
OH seniority by the Labor Board.
The President, it was stated,
trusts the new proposals withdraw
the support of public opinion and
speedily end the strike, now in its
sixth week.
