that you win or you fall be the best of whatever you are retail survey shows change brttr business predicted prosperity has turned the long awaited ud much heralded corner and is advancing slowly but surely along the sunny side of the street ac cording to a recent survey conducted by the business management bureau of phe retail merchants association of canada inc ontario division this survey denuitejte revealed vis ible improvements honany lines of business although the full benefits of the upward trend would nqt be felt by the average person for a few mon ths according to f p boselly dlrec tor of the bureau whose reasons are as follows when the stock market crashed in 1929 the depression had started and prosperity was on its way into tem- porary seeluslon for three m or morehefore the average person realiz ed it curtailed their expenditures and purchases or made any provision for liquid reserves to tide aver the hard times in fact people were so used to t and tajkmg prosperity and easy money thatrew were capabl of a wfnod when such condi tions wontdvcefise- to exist 7today all economic in- dices and barometers such as- cai loadings stock and commodity prices unfilled orders for steel money avail able for loans bank drnlt and ces sation of national bankruptcies posl- tlvely show that business and financial eaders are preparing for a period of expension and that the depression is over but once g the publicdoes not realize it people have been talk ing depression and practicing economy and frugality for so long few are cap able of believing that better times are here a canvass in connection with the bureaus survey disclosed an potential market for goods and mer chandise of every description during the last period of u a higher standard of living was creat ed by means of advertising and other propaganda people transferred into the class of necessities many things previously considered as luxuries such as automobiles radios vacuum clean ers in addlsjdn to many items of food and clothing the depression curtailed purchasing power and therefore gratification of these wants but it would take more than two or three years of hard tunes to eliminate the strong desire people have for things which they have en joyed and so pleasantly remember now with a return to confidence to the business structure and an aosur- anee of steady employment or poten tial profits the public will again start spending and let loose the pentop flood of buying that they denied them selves during the past three yearn which will benefit everyone to the i economio chain i money will start to circulate credits i loosen up the storekeeper stock up nus shelves he manufacturer start his plant to supply the merchant pros perity will gain increasing momen tum and we vdll again be in the midst of good rubes practically before we realise it hut it must not be construed that this prosperity which is well on me way is of the boom variety like the last with its frenzied finance and overinflated prices when anyone and everyone could make money in prac tically any line that they choosed it s not and those days are gone r seller dp all indications point to a period of iteady substantial growth when those who have something meri- torlcus to offer who plan carefully buy wisely advertise intelligently and who either know whakjthey are doing or hire experts to show them the way will have greater opportunities for huge success than ever before and partlcuarly is this true of the retail field where hit and miss methods have taketp suoh a disastrous toll in past years according to mr boselly who claims that we are now entering updrrheera or greatet ex pansion and prosperity for scientifi cally operated and individually owned retail stores in merchandising history these things are very fine state many merchants but how are they gofcngto help me 1 am just about to the bands of the receiver and dont know whether i can continue in busi ness for eveii another month this mortality ofrretall business de manded a positive and lasting reme dy explained mr boselly so the business management bureau was brought into existence as an integral part of the retail merchants associa tion about eighteen months ago isnce that time it has been successful lu re habilitating many retail businesses which were beaded for the bankruptcy courts this was acconxpttshed by a single process of reorganha tlnn the application of correct mer and aftrekeeping prmdptbb and in most cases by a substantial increase in newspaper advertising winch created sates and produced profits thereby giving confidence to creditors and thus mmhnf an unfortunate but otherwise good merchant to stay in business and i a success an excellent tribute to the bureaus work was
