skirts of Warren. For very brief
time they stayed then became dis

The SUMMER HEAT.BUG
The Good Old Summer Time" becomes
an ironical expression to many mer.
chants because they THINK that hot.
weather sounds a "death.knell" for
business. Vacations of employees and
customers are sweet music in the ears
of The Heat.Bug, while they sound like
Chopin's Funeral March to storekeepers.
Paralyzed with fear, such merchants stop
trying to get business and put store flags
at feurative half.staff. But just ONE
analysis of the truth of the situation
produces a vastly different result. The
decrease in sales lies NOT in hot.
weather, BUT in what is done Tor rather
NOT done) to overcome the supposed
obstacle.
Farriers haze proved BY figures that
MORE business CAN be done in hot
months than in any other of the year:
they haze found that aomen uiN buy
tnrs at any time IF good reason is
provided; they offer the necessary in.
dacemenfs, advertise ,vhat they are
doing and get business. Noe ,vhat
holds good in the case of furs applies to
any other article of use. Realizing this
yill not change the picture -. agreeing
sUifh its possibilities u,iN not suffice: but
DOING something about it .. WILL.
Think it over; get busy; PLAN to get
business and you will get it; summer
months are only as bad as negligence
lets them be and CAN be as good as they
are MADE to be; the Heat Bugs are
buzzing around; you can drive them
