Administration Rebuked.

From all indications the present ad-
ministration was summarily rebuked
on election day with the opposition
party making strong gains in both
house and senate. The democratic
line and file seems jubiliant and the
ordinary plug republicans, you and |,
don't seem to care.
Tracing causes we find considerable
unrest in the country and discomfort
generally takes a slap at the party in
power. This is as old as the hills
and means nothing in particular. The
democrats got a dose of it in 1926
Then the administration started Off
wrong. Instead of playing wise in
1920 the leaders in the party (the big
one is since dead played policy.
Taking advantage of a cinch they
nominated a second-rate senator for
president although it is fact that
first-raters were not much in evidence
at the convention, Cor outside either,
for that matter) Harding seems to
have done his best but he hasn't
measured up to what this country ex-
poets of it's presidents and he is not
likely to do so. He means well but is
short on ability.
Then again the leaders foolishly
paid their campaign debts with anOth-
er grand old robber tariff. The mid
west is still suffering from agricul-
tural depression, low prices along
with inflated land values and to furth-
er raise prices of goods is little short
of a crime-or so it seems to the aver
age farmer.
Our leaders may get wise by two
years from now and get in line with
the spirit of the country. If they don't
it will be third party or a democrat
president sure.
Whatever comfort our democratic
friends, Editor Bishop included, can
get out of the foregoing statement of
things as we see them, they are well
come to.

BEAT THE MAIL ORDER HOUSE

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.-That the
mail order houses cannot compete
with the wide awake local merchants,
and that they are beaten every time
they try to get trade from territory in
which live merchants are found, are
statements of Benjamin Wood, public
ity manager of the st. Paul branch of
the Montgomery Ward & Co., before
Minnesota editors at their short
course at University Farm recently.
Mr.. Wood went further and said:
"The success of the mail order houses
is due to the advertising matter which
places their goods before the people,
together with their price. Mail order
houses must strive to give good SER
vice, our golden rule is Satisfaction
maintain this rule
Merchants who use this method
we consider live ones. They keep
their customers trading at home"
He emphasized that the local mer-
chants must meet the mail order bus
mess competition in local but logi-
cal manner. Modern merchandising
has developed new methods that the
local merchant must follow if he is to
succeed.
cooperative selling is the big
thing today" declared Mr.. Wood.
Market day associations with special
bargain day sales with all the mer-
chants of the community" is his
answer to this proposition. "This
must be a complete sale. 1t is the
surest way to beat the direct catalog
methods of mail order people,"
Such plan works best if a secre-
tary is in charge who is in direct con-
tact with the customers, and who SUI
pervises the bargains that are offered.
Style and service merchandising
will beat mail order people, and this
combined with judicious use of local
advertising will make the local mer-
chants supreme in their communities.
Mr.. Wood is leaving the employ of
Montgomery Ward & Co., to go into
business of his own.

How To Succeed In Business.

A pretty large subject to take on
isn't it? Yet the rules are so simple
that once understood, success is a
matter of absolute certainty.
Assuming average mental and NOR
al training, d sound body and will
to win, a young man starting out
should have vision and Imagination
enough to seek a stable occupa ion
likely to endure where his years OF
training will not become antiquated
and superseded by his line going stale
or out of date.
In seeking an occupation, especially
business or professional, it is well to
locate where customers are numer-
Gus even though the individual profit
from each is small. The brightest
mind would go to waste selling goods
in a desert. The more customers the
greater gross profit even though the
individual profit be little. Henry
Ford found this out years ago.
Despite a good deal of popular rant
and cutlery from failures and has
beens, successful men, as rule are
moi gOugerS. AS a rule they have
stable prices, treat customers alike
and only insist on getting fair profit.
Profit demands a good product and
the wise producer will see that his
product is good and consistently
good. He must either sell more goods
or better article for the same money.
1t cannot be disputed that this funda-
mental will bring customers quite re-
CARELESS of how well they may per-
sonally like the man selling the ar
ticle
Service in the ultimate consists Of
being on the job day in and day out
delivering what the public wants in
your line without a single slackening
of effort. It is not enough to bat a
thousand one day in the year. A man
must bat close to a thousand 365 days
in the year This is a terrific price to
pay for success but the price must be
paid. Brilliant batters who deliver
1000 one day and zero the next never
arrive. Even though the average be
not high it must be consistent.
The need of honesty, if only for
policys sake. in dealings is so ap-
parent that it need hardly be touched
upon Cultiyating reputation for
honesty is plant of slow growth and
the hardest work of all. Eventually
1t can be done and the man who wins
it has won something worth more
than all things else put together.
Vision, courage, stick-to-itiveness
ability and honesty. these are the
components of success. If any young
man has the slightest doubt of this
statement let him ask the first sue
cessful and respected man he meets
All have travelled the road and all will
give the same answer.

AS YOU MAKE 1T

To the preacher, life's a sermon,
To the joker, life's a jest;
To the miser, life is money,
To the loafer, life's rest.
To the lawyer, life's a trial,
To the poet. life's a song;
To the doctor, life's a patient,
Who needs treatment right along.
To the soldier, life's a battle,
To the teacher, life's a school;
Life's a good thing to the CRATER !;
It's a failure to the fool.
To the man upon the engine
Life's a long heavy grade;
It's a gamble to the gambler,
To the merchant, life's trade.
Life is but a long vacation
To the man who loves his work;
Lifes an everlasting effort
To shun duty, to the shirk.
Life is what we try to make it
Brother, what is life to you?

FIFTH FIRE ON RICE LAKE FARMS

RICE LAKE, Wis.-Fire of inceE-
diary origin destroyed the barn OF Jo-
seph Hogger, a farmer. An attempt
had evidently been made to burn the
house. for rags saturated with oil
were found upon porch. This is the
fifth incendiary fire in the neighbor-
hood during the last month, and the
farmers are infuriated over their
losses. State Fire Marshall Good is
working on the case and farmers
have organized a vigilance committee,
but so far no suspects have been ar
rested.
