A SALUTE TO THE CHINESE

While we pat ourselves on the back for
the strides that the nation has taken in de-
tense matters during the past year, let's not
forget cumbersome mass of people, slow
ly pIodding their way through the fifth
wear Of unprovoked and merciless warfare.
In 1887 Japanese soldiers precipltated
the struggle with China by firing a few
shots near Peiping and since that time ruth
less Japanese invaders have despoiled the
people and the land Of China. There Is no
use to recite the bloody details or recount
the great suffering Of the Chinese people.
We can better dwell, perhaps, upon
the heroic resistance of the Chinese govern
ment, which has retreated steadily before
the enemy without giving up the battle. To-
day. probably three million, or more, men
are engaged in the China incident and
Japan is very anxious to discover q man
oeuver that will save her face.
The Chinese government refuses to
give in, knowing that surrender will mean
alien rule for many years. Their morale
has been helped by proffers Of aid from
Great Britain and the United States but the
flow of supplies has been scant compared
with the task the Chinese must assume,

ORIGIN OF ODD PRICES

We are so accustomed to articles in
stores priced at SO cents, $1.49. and other
odd-penny amounts that few persons give
any thought to what once was considered
a freakish idea of price-making.
But G. H. Cilley, wellknown store
advertising manager, tells in a recent ar
ticle that the custom arose from the solu-
ton of very practical problem by shrewd
merchant
When Captain Roland H. Macy got
tired of sailing the briny deep as sea cap
tain and started a store in New York, there
were no cash registers or other means for
checking up his clerks. Money received
for purchases was put in an old-fashioned
cash drawer which made no records, and
the practice of knocking down." a
euphemism for plain stealing by clerks, was
quite prevalent.
Macy changed all prices to odd-cent
amounts. established cashiers to make the
required change, and kept close watch on
the cashiers His advertisements of these
odd prices seemed to strike the public eye
favorably, and he got great response.
What was at first only an expedient to keep
from being robbed developed into potent
psychological appeal to his customers,
Thus the odd-price has survived many
years after the original reason for its adop-
ton ceased to exist.
