RAIN

Every time it's picnic day
Then it rains.
When we want to put up hay
Then it rains.
Thunder rolls and lightnings flash
All our plans are gone to smash.
Spirits tumble with crash
When it rains.
When we've soaked the lawn up we'll
Then it rains.
If we start to put up jell,
Then it rains.
When the clothes are on the line
Or the dressings going fine
Often 1 just groan and whine
When it rains.
When the corn is in the ground,
Never rains.
Things are scorching all around,
Never rains.
Garden wilted, blight in grain
How we beg and pray for rain
Say we'll never growl again,
If it rains.
What's the use Of getting sore
When it rains.
We can't make it less or more
Than it rains.
Disappointments hurt while
But it's sure to help pile
If we meet them with a smile
Glad it rains.

"THE COUNTRY"

The country with it's trees and fields
It's air so fresh and free,
Is mighty welcome, 1 should say
For lonesome folks like me,
It's fun to watch the buzzing bees
And smell the clover tops,
I'd rather walk the dusty roads
Than crowded streets and shops.
From walking through the fields of
grain
get mighty thrill.
It's nice to hear the warbling birds
Instead of whistles shrill
So, good bye, shops and trolley cars,
Goodbye to stylish dress.
I'm going to my country home
And live in happiness!
-Thelma Spicer, Finlayson.

to its counters to see what is going
on and pick up the bargains, and
they carry off large amounts. of the
merchandise thus offered.
The advertised store can buy goods
at price concessions by buying in
large lots, so it can offer them to the
public at low prices and, rely on pub
lie support obtainede through publ
city, to work off those large lots
promptly. And the increased VOL
ume of business enables the store to
be operated at lower cost per ar
ticle sold. Thus quantity distribu-
ton makes a saving for the public
through advertising.

QUANTITY DISTRIBUTION

Quantity production has been one
of the principal methods by which
manufacturing costs have been re-
duced. And similarly, if a retail
store can find some way to increase
it's sales, it is in position to make
economies through quantity distri-
button.
The principal method of obtaining
quantity distribution is through ad-
