that folks would fall for her as d
bereaved woman who was visiting
the scenes of happy bridehood. All
right, she got there, but: You can't

SO when she had to register, honesty

There were forty-e1even old maids

that keeps an ever-open weather eye
on the horizon for a craftsmans sail

come to the rescue of a time blurred

received. and three make a crowd,
here goes the broadcasting Of tho old
song by SDF:
My srsndtather's clock was too tall for the
shelf,
So 1t stood 90 years on the floor.
1t was taller, by half, than the old man him
self,
Though It weighed not pennyweirht more.
So it struck ''twenty-foSr" when he entered
at the door
With a blooming and beautiful bride;
But 1t stopped short, never to go again,
When the old man died.
Ninety years, without slumbering, tick, tick,
tick. tick,
His Iife's seconds numbering, tick, tick
tick, tick
1t stopped, short. never to go again,
When the old man died.
"Carncross and Dixey's Minstrels
from Philadelphia, brought that song
to Washington, and took it all over
the country 'steen years ago; and the
chorus was rendered by superior
male quartet"

general scrutiny of business phe-

completed by the Millinery Digest. 1t
has made an examination of the rea-
son why safes are lost in stores-why
customers walk out without buying.
The results are set out graphically in

number OF salespersons were ques-
toned and it reports the answers col
lected in 4 large number of indi-
vidual instances. The explanation OF
the Salesperson as to why no sale
was made in each case was carefully
noted and classified. Similarly GUS
toners leaving stores without buying
were asked theis reasons.
1t is sitinificant that, according to
the salespeople, 20 per cent of all
who failed to buy did so because
prices were high. 1t is also signifi-
cant that according to the customer
merchants lost II per cent of their
sales through the discourtesy of en-
