Ii seemed like nice, inexpensive
entertainment, but the small! town
boy was suspicious.
81 hope the members play just
a friendly. sOciable game" he
inquired. 81 don't like TO play
contract bridge for more than
a quarter or "A half-cent a point"
The manager nodded in agree

small town boy couldn't even get
through an outer door to the bell

"StHl closed?" inquired a fell
low bridge enthusiast, reaching
the door at the same time.
IT'S STILL CLOSED

town boy.
The situation was even worse at

would never have known a bridge

footsore that all that remained
was a game of double-dummy
bridge with his chiropodist.

 But whether the fall season is usiiered in by local celebration or not, it is scheduled to start at that time, according to the Weather Bureau office here
 Local merchants have ali eady hailed the, fall season, with displays of autumn styles in their shop win dows and seasonal decorations of the coiored leaves which are har- bingers of fall. Tn the newspapers, that unfailing sign of fall appears as stories of football scnednies II the States and predictions of ex- perts about which teams will win the major college conferenc, crowd the sports pages.

RETAILERS DRAMATlzING LEADERSHIP

For the past three years organ ized retailers have staged during a week each September, what has come to be known as National Re- tail Demonstration. set apart for the. dramatlaing, to the public at srge the important role played by the million. eight hundred thousand retailers in the social and economic lifs of the nation.
 This year the theme is Retailers fer Defense
 Price Trend
 The executive set-up fo~ this years campaign is unusual and inspiring. Ma jor Benjamin H. Namm. pre- s:dent of the Namm ltore. in Brvoklyn. N. Y.,, IS Ma tional Chairman, and DonHld M Nelson. Director of Purchases. of- tice of Prod:iction Management, is Honorary Chairman.
 Tn accnnting this post MT. Nelson Seclared that the retail trade of the 'rrited state has set splendid xamnle to all business in it's efforts to prevent unjustifiable price ad- -ancer. adt',rr that "ir this they ',eve served their public ard the ~atien."
 Thr disl7rations resulting from
 n emerorrcv economy have been 'elt with irrreasing intensity. he 'e'o,are~ and retailers have. through nctriGtic leaiership~ helped tH cush- in what. might otherwise be per- jed of. considerable danger to busi- nesS as wtcie.
 The Honorary Chairman also feels that retailers are playing an immeasurably important lole in combating unjustified- price advan- ces, and thereby preventing what might easily develop into a runaway price trend.
 Among the factors that can con- tribute very definitely to tn. De- fense Program. and to the least rossible interference with civilian requirements. is that of the Ma tional Retail Dry Goods Associa- tons campaign to bring about simplification of merchandise lines 'rct standardization.
 With simpler lines there can be more production. without recourse to "curtailmant' as such. and this movement will prove of inestimable help in solving the new problems of the small store in the present light merchandise situation.
 In speaking about the realistic role the retailer must play in the present emergency. Major Renia- min H. Namm, National Chair man of Retailers for Defense" said that 1t would be folly, indeed. if under the stress of wartime emo- ton, we failed to realize flat the greatest service that we can render to our country IS to concentrate upon doing the job for which we are best fitted-retail distribution and doing that job more effectively than it has ever been done before" ]"

Lack of a Goal
Confuses Army
Colonel Declares

Army morale is a greater prob
lem during the monotonous train
ing routine such as United States
soldiers now are experiencing than
when they are marching 70 the

Porter Of Washington, D. C., said
here today.
He spoke before the. Joint con-
ference in the Hotel Statsef OF the
Michigan Welfare League and the
Michigan Society for Mental Hy-
giene.

soldiers informed of the situa-
ton and thus bolster their
morale" the speaker said.

il confusing TO the soldier" he
continued.
"The situation now differs
from that OF 1917 In that we
have no sharply defined objec-

stimulus.

UNFIT Welded OUT
Colonel Porter said extreme
care is being taken TO weed out
before their induction, any men
who are emotionally unsuited 10
military service. This precaution
is being taken because of the
high incidence of neurotic- reaction
TO shell shock by the soldiers in
the last war.
He pleaded for a greater under

re elected because of emotional I'M
fitness.

They are men who are not

but who may prove most valu-
able In other defense capacities"
