Tuesday, January 24, 1922 SALES, ADVERTISING DEPTS. MUST GROW Another optimistic stand is taken by the Anaheim National Bank in its January letter. Factors are nearly all favorable, in the view of President William A. Dolan. The letter says in part: "Possibly sixty per cent of the available reports covering the Holiday trade are in and tabulated. They show a very close approximation to the dollar figures of 1921 which really means that the physical volume of the trade is beyond that of a year ago. In our own questionnaire, as well as the reports of several Federal Reserve Banks, we find that the class of merchandise consumed this year has been of the medium price and of a type full of practical utility. In view of the fact that there is a surplus productive capacity available in this country in many manufacturing lines, it follows that some producers are going to have to bid for more than their usual share of business. Such a condition is going to promote a further 'Buyer's Market' with the result that the concern which sits still, content in the belief that we are in a period of business depression, is very soon going to wake up and find its market sold out from under it. It is not going to help matters to cut prices beyond the requirements of a more stabilized price level. Neither is it going to accomplish anything to push prices up at an artificial pace. The true course is going to lie along the line of constructive making and marketing of goods. More money is going to have to go into sales and advertising departments and less into high pressure production. Furthermore, advertising and selling is going to go on a higher plane. Media and men are going to be weighted carefully in the balance of production and every factor necessary to efficiency will be brought into play. We have reached the place in the commercial highway where the man who works with head and heart and hands comes into his own. Future tendencies in commodity prices must always be regarded from two separate and distinct standpoints—that of the factors which make for an advance or decline in the price" WILSON'S GRANDSON OPENS CAMPAIGN Little Woodrow Wilson Sayre, grandson of the ex-President, is shown in the arms of his father, Prof. Francis B. Sayre of the Harvard Law School, on the steps of the Old State House in Boston, immediately after he had struck a great ship's bell 12 times to mark the opening of the Woodrow Wilson Foundation campaign in Massachusetts.

In other words, when a study of prevailing economic influences reveals the fact that a contraction in the volume of business purchasing power is the prospect, it is ordinarily absurd to expect anything except a general lowering of price levels, or conversely, when these conditions are reversed to anticipate other than a broad upward movement in prices. But the price of any single commodity or, in some instances, of a whole group of related products may be governed by conditions peculiar to itself and may, consequently, move in a direction contrary to the prevailing general tendency." The average man is his own worst enemy. He does things against himself—against his own health and his own interests—which he would resemble deeply if done to him by others. Try Plain Dealer Want Ads.

SHOES TOO SMALL; KNIFED BY COBBLER BUENOS AIRES, Jan. 24.—Feminine vanity brought grief to one cobler now languishing in jail here and probably cursing all women who desire small feet.

Alicia wore these to a dance the same night and after enduring half an hour of agony, discarded her petite footwear and hopped back home carrying the shoes in her hands. Thereupon the head of the Cuncho famelia met Carelia in a drinking den and informed the latter he would never pay for shoes that were too small for use. Carelia replied that it was not the fault of his creation, but the fact of the feet being too big. Finally he punctuated his scathing remarks concerning the pedal extremities of the Cuncho family and their ancestors by drawing a knife and stabbing the father.

Beach, poultry disease specialist of the U. of C., is to be at Santa Ana high school Thursday eve, Jan. 26th at 8 p.m. to give an illustrated report of his recent trip to the World's Poultry Congress held at The Hague Sept. 1921.

Farm Advisor Scott, in co-operation with Orange-co farm bureau.
