JUNE

June is the month of commencements in Seward-of the sweet girl graduate, and the oratorical youth who takes for his vale dictory theme ''The Worlds Problems and How to Solve Them" This is the month when school, college and university take the center of the stage and hold 1t in undisput- ed sovereignty. What poetry there is in the commencement season,-the girls in white, the bouquets of flowers, the music and the diplomas, and overhead in flaming Lies Italy" Who has not sensed the rain bows that halo the commencement occasion, and likewise who has not responded to the minor chord of sadness as the graduates sing with gusto and possibly for the last time together their class songs. For, school, college and university days are such dear days of inspiration, of fun and frolic, of lasting friendships, and of dreaming dreams which may or may not come true.
 Then June is the month of weddings, the brides month in all verity. All the world loves a bride, whether she come from the ranks of the humble and the wedding be al marvel of simplicity, or she emerge from the home of the rich and the great, and the occasion be one of pomp and elaborate cere- monies-what matters it. All the world loves bride It will be sorry day for so ciety should the romance of marriage suf- fer loss or the wedding be treated as com monplace and mere formality. Weddings are solemn, not sad; they are impassive events, and flippancy at such time is the acme of poor taste. June is the brides month, her very own. Roses then for the brides hair, roses in her hands, roses in her cheeks, roses for her path, roses for the bride!

A GRAVE MISTAKE

Britons have just opened with ceremo- ny an 1845 beef can of the Sir John Frank lin expedition. A mistake, grave mistake ! The stuff should have been saved for the next war, when soldiers would have had to eat it. Embalmed beef in peace time is un- thinkable.

Present Business Outlook.

Those making up budgets now are
asking about the business outlook for
the next II months. Frankly, it will
be no better in most lines and in most
sections than a year ago. Very few
business men can safely count on bet
ter business and very few families
can count on higher wages in the i'm
mediate future. Not only have we
still the great World War to pay for,
but, the instailment business has been
eating into the vitals of both trade
and homes. TO what extent no one
knows, but it is very serious.
The stock market smashes of the
past two months were largely due to
investors realizing how large pro-
portion of automobile and other mer-
chandise sales today are not actual

budgeting is like trying to mix oil

WHOSE ADVERTISING BILLS DO
YOU PAY?

THE STORE that doesn't adver-
~ tise pays the advertising bill
for the one that does.
Every merchant in business pays
for advertising, whether he uses it
or not. If a competitors adver-
tising takes any business away
from him, the profit he would have
made on the lost sale is what his
competitors advertising cost him.
You have, perhaps, wondered
how some stores can afford to
spend such enormous sums for ad-
vertising. That is easy to fathom.
Their competitor, who doesn't adj
vertise and whose business they
take, pays for their advertising.
Say the Jones family is GUS
toner of your store. They have $50
which they intend to spend with
you. They read the advertising of
your competitor and are induced
to spend their $50 with him instead
of spending it with you. The store
makes 20 per cent, Or $12, on the
sale. They deduct, we will say,
the 81 advertising cost and have
$11 profit left. The advertising has
cost them nothing, they got back
it's cost and had $11 profit they
would not have had only for their
advertising.
Who paid for this advertising?
Did the advertiser pay? No. He
got the cost back, and profit be-
sides.
Did the purchaser pay? No. He
paid only the regular price.
Then who did pay?
The store that did not advertise
paid for his competitors advertis-
ing. He not only paid for the 9th
er fellows advertising, but he paid
out of his cash drawer the profit
This competitor made on the sale.
The store that doesn't advertise
pays the advertising bill for the
one that does. He pays in loss of
sales, profits and increased costs.
The store that loses business
through not advertising has such
high overhead and unit sale cost
that it cannot possibly sell goods
as cheaply as the store that in
creases its sales and reduces its
cost with advertising. = Phoenix
