ten to this note which rings clear
above the hubbub of activity. AS a
matter of fact, industrial expansion
this year is taking up the slack in the
construction industry which was
caused by the decline in home building
and erection of Office structures.
Greater Freight Movement.
1t is noteworthy that every test
that has been applied to the business
situation thus far this year has failed
TO disclose heavy stocks of goods on
hand. Loadings of freight for the first
two months of 1927 totaled 8,34S, 600
cars compared to S,105, 900 cars in the
corresponding period of 1925 and with
S,079 900 cars in the same period Of
1925. This means that goods are NOV
ing into distribution in even greater
volume than last year.
Competition undoubtedly is more
keen but, even with lower prices,
there has been no sacrifice of profit.
Business and industry are increasing
ly efficient and seem able to sell mer-
chandiSe at a lower price and still
maintain their margin of profit with
out imposing upon their wage earners.
Improved methods and. in some cases,

BUSINESS OUTLOOK
DEEMED HEALTHY
Economists Fail to Sense
Danger Through Recent
Government Survey.
BY HARDEN COLFAX.

Results Of a special survey OF the
business and industrial situation
throughout the country, which was
completed last week by Government
agencies that keep their fingers con-
stantly on the pulse of trade life,
show nothing to justify outpourings
by prophets of evil.
Business, generally speaking, is de-
cidedly good. ReceSsions here and
there, which are indicated by certain
of the trades statistics, are explained
by especial conditions which have no
permanent influence upon the general
situation.
Even though there are declines in
trade in some lines, such for instance
as a decrease of per cent in the
sales of mail order houses reporting
to the Federal Reserve Board last
month as compared with February
1925, 1t is pointed out by economists
that when comparisons are made
with last year, present figures must
be set against those resulting from
extra ordinary activity. In other
words, there is room for a decrease
as compared with 1926 conditions
which still would leave 1927 n year
Of brisk activity and generally good
business.
May Be Better.
The fact is that 1927 may prove
to be even q better business year
than 1926, all elements considered,
and nothing has occurred thus far to
disprove the faith of those business
men and industrialists who are driv-
ing ahead to this end.
Jobs appear to be as plentiful as
last year, with some shifts necessary
in employment due to emphasis being
transferred from one line of industry
to another.
Consumers are likely to receive
their merchandise and their food at
average prices lower than the aver
age throughout 1926. The price level
lately has stiffened in some lines hut
in general has continued to decrease
through the early weeks of 1927.
One very significant note was sound.

in part by lower prices of imported

Increases in Metals.
Retail sales in February were 2.5
per cent greater than in the same
month last year. January also showed
an increase. Post office receipts in
both January and February marked
substantial increases. In production,

Boost P|sntywood Chautauqua
By Purchasing Season Ticket

The Chautauqua guaTantors,
who have signed the contract guar
anteeing the payment of the con-
tract price for the Chautauqua al
PIentywood desire 70 call attention
to the following facts;
For every season ticket sold there
is credit given for the full amount
upon the guarantee. thus when you
buy a season ticket for $500 the
contract is credited with that
amount, and you are entitled to
attend every one of the eleven en-
tertainments without further ex-
pense.
However the cost of these SAME
entertainments when attended on
single admission amounts to seven
dollars, so if you are going to see
only half OF the entertainment YOU
are still way ahead by getting the
seas0n ticket, and besides the guar
antors only get credit for half OF
the amount spent for single adnis-
sion on the contract.
We urge you 10 buy SEASON
TICKETS, you save and it helps us.
This is the BEST program that has
EVER come to Plenty wood, help
, us make it a success.

Drive Carefully, You
May Meet a Fool

Every driver Of an auto should
realize that not only does he risk
his own life when he takes chance.
but he may cause the death of a
fellow being. The act of drying
carries with ii a grave responsibility.
We have no moral right to put
another human being in danger
merely because we are ignorant or
careless. We should at all times
use due care and judgement
Here are few suggestions which
if followed will reduce the number
of automobile accidents:
|. Be careful at all times.
2 Always have your car under
absolute control.
3. Never speed.
4. Never pass another car on its
right.
S. Turn lone to the left and
short to the right
6. Slow down for all cross roads
and streets.
7. Remember railway trains
don't stop at crossings.
8. Know that your brakes are
properly adjusted and working prop
erly.
8. Use windshield wiper in every
rain.
10. Chains are cheaper than
coffins.
III. Don't drive IN the middle of
the road.
IL. Stop at all boulevard cross
ines.
IS. Remember that pedestrians
have some rights.
Id. The driver of the other car
may be your best friend. Don't
kill him.
Loss Of life due to careless driy
ers has GOT to stop and the cooper
alton OF every driver is needed. You
can do your part and ask others to
be as careful and considerate.
