Collectively, business is merely the pro-
duction and exchange OF commodities. Indi.
vidually, businesses in this country are mil
lion separate enterprises, producing, selling
and transporting things, and financing the
flow of trade. Business men are the people
who make living by conducting these mill
lion separate enterprises and who take the
risks of owning them. From the corner gro

pendent unit in our business system is work.
ing hard for that success which can be gained
only by serving and satisfying its customers.
Business is good when these one million
separate businesses are busily making and
exchanging their products. They do this
when costs and prices are in proper balance,
and when the existing purchasing power is
actively being used by consumers and by
industries in buying from one another.
Businesses stimulate buying activity by
Offering better merchandise and more at
tractive values, and by advertising them
widely. This is the way all new industries
have been built It is the way business oper-
ates normally in building prosperity.
Whatever else may have helped, the Amer
ican spirit of business enterprise has been
the handspring of our progress, aided at
every point by the use of good advertising

Lecture to Benefit
Nursing Service
Of Kentucky.

MUCH has been written about the
work Of Mrs Mary Breckenridge
and the Frontier Nursing Service Of
Kentucky. So the news that the
Washington Committee is sponsoring
a lecture for the benefit of the service
Is Of interest to every one.
John Mason Brown, dramatic critic
OF the New York Evening Post, will
lecture on Broadway in Review" at
the Mayfiower Hotel, Saturday, April
Is, at O'Clock, And Mrs D. Law
renee Groner, chairman of the COM
mlttee. announces that tea and cock
tails will be served following the lee
ture. also that the guests may have
the opportunity of meeting Mr.. Brown
This rather unusual innovation is in
the capable hands Of Princess Mar
garet Draper Concompagne, one Of the
most generous and enthusiastic mem
bers OF the local committee.
Mrs. Robert J. Bulkley is chairman
OF posters for the lecture. Appropri-
ately, too, for she is the wife Of the
Senator from Kentucky and Mr.
Brown halls from the same State
which has made frontier nursing his
tory in America.
Mrs. Nelson Perrin is chairman Of
the Committee on Boxes; Mrs. Reeve
Lewis, publicity, and Mrs. Oscar Cool
ican and Miss Marian Shouse have
charge OF the tickets. Mrs. Henry
M. White, aunt Of Mr.. Brown, is chair
man Of the Patroness Committee.
The Frontier Nursing Service was
started just 13 years ago in the noun
tains OF Eastern Kentucky. This area
was chosen because nowhere in the
United States are the difficulties facing
rural health administration more
acute, because the people of this re-
gion are American stock, handicapped
by geographical conditions and not by
native ability. 1t Is financed by con-
trihutions collected annually by COM
mittees in l9 leading American cities,
OF which Washington is one, by in
dlvidual donors, and by organizations
which finance certain departments.
Mrs. Groner and her committee
members are putting forth every effort
to make the forthcoming lecture a
great financial success in order that
they may turn over a generous check
for this great work.
