REPORTS
GREAT GROWTH
In BUSINESS

Perry r. Smith, proprietor of
Smiths grocery and meat market
situated at the corner of Fifteenth
street and D avenue, has produced
figures to prove that business in
Douglas is good, in fact that it is
so good he is being forced to enlarge
his store. This store was opened on
/ January /, 1927, so that it has run
just a few days over one year. The
records of the firm snow that the
!, business for the first month, was
$500 and for the twelfth month more
than $4,000
The records show that this busi-
ness increased steadily through the
year with the exception of one month
Fin, The middle Of the. summer when
there was a slight slump Perry
Smith, assisted by his son, E. H.
Smith, operates the business. They
are both experienced merchants. They
claim that hard work, coupled with
close figuring, is responsible for the
great growth of their business,
They take advantage of every dis
count in buying their goods and by
selling in very large volume are able
to offer the public the lowest prices.
This is one firm which advocates
advertising as an absolute essential
success. Both Perry r. Smith and
his son, E. H. Smith give credit to
the advertising columns of The Dis
patch for a great measure of their
EsuccesS. They point out along with
this that one must have something
to advertise.
This store operates first class
meat market and sells everything
found in grocery stores. They sell to
| the retail trade at advertised cut
prices which are really low.
Preparations are going forward now
FLOR the enlarging of the store space
/ and the main sales room and dis
Eplay will be made much larger to
accommodate growing trade. At
/ the present tine with several clerks
working as rapidly as possible the
| store is usually crowded with GUS
j toners ready to take advantage OF
| the savings offered in staple grocer
| les.
/ The firm progresses on the propo-
sition that the greater volume of busi-
ness the greater the cut that can
| be made in prices. Hard work and
long hours are other ingredients IN
/ the receipts for success as given by
Smith. The store is opened in the
morning early enough to accomnlo-
date the earliest risers and is not
closed in the evening until the last
customer has gone away loaded with
supplies an dissatisfaction.

There is a lot of dramatic license
taken in the love yarn but it is
human and cute. One of the fun
NEST things is when Dix is caught
by his manager trying to sneak in
from a date late at night. This one
comedy scene is enough to make any
picture a WOW. And Dix is mighty
efficient in certain brands Of comedy
work.

Ruth as actor. To me he must be

who have been fed up on the Sheik

I consider this sound picture a
challenge to new day in the
theater. This is not talker, taken
in the sense that the chief actors
speak their lines. This is sound pic
ture with orchestra background and
several times you hear a man sing

Brook then gives himself up to the

Maurice Colleano, on the stage, is

We have seen tumblers do any num-

run and turns a double somersault
in the air, using his own springy
legs as the only means of propulsion.
This is something we are not in the

Dare and Yates on the stage have
a comedy acrobatic act that packs
such a kick as to make the tears
come to your eyes. We have not
seen in a long, long, time an act
as funny as this one. And to make
it all the better they do not say a
word. Considered from all angles
this act is as near perfect as it is
possible for an act to be. These two
men alone are worth all the rest
of the stage features put together.
