It seemed that two or three years ago, when customers were kind of anxious, these merchants decided they weren't going to stay open Saturday nights any longer, no- how. Farmers would just have to come to town in the daytime, whether or not they had to rush right back to milk and feed the stock and thereby miss the pleasant-evening hours meet- | ing folk from the other concessions. One merchant refused to go along with the others, He kept his store open, though business fell off, because people werent going to that town just to shop at one store, and not a very big store either. The same merchant owns two other stores, each in a town not far away as time is reckoned in these days of paved roads and- recent cars. And this merchant who, like all good merchants, has a keen ear for the music of the cash register at work, reports that his sales in the two Saturday-night towns ~~ NOW!

There's an allegedly modern idea, born in the mind of some mérchants, that the cus- tomer will be ready with cash in hand when the merchant gets good and ready to unlock the door. There are many others, of course, who recollect that, Mr, Eaton, with his idea that a merchant owed a duty to the public, was one of the most spectacularly suc- cessful merchants in this or any other country. --The Printed Word - EP A Fifty million cocoa trees on the African Gold Coast are said to be threatened with a virus disease that endangers the world's supply of cocoa. * * * hf ren's fares on height--under 2% feet, free; from 2% to 4 feet 3 inches, half- fare; taller than that, full fare, i. * * J The British Government has launch- ed a 'don't-lose-your-temper" drive because too nfany telephones were be- ing put out of order by people slam- ming receivers. * * x .
