A woman in the north ‘end of the city called up a business house and agked that a box of matches be delivered: to ‘her home at once. The merchant explained that his regular delive,ry in that section was just comâ€". pleted“and that a special trip could not be made without added expense and inconvenience. _ But the woman would not wait to hear the explanaâ€" tion ‘and hung yp the receiver. She thinks Highland, Park is still a counâ€" try town and expects people to act acâ€" eordingly. She failed to realize that the cost of distribution is one of the biggest items of overhead expense in every, merchant‘s ledger. It is a soft ‘of hangâ€"over from the old freeâ€"andâ€" easy village days before the war when wages of délivery boys were trifliing ‘and &xe old horse and wagon always stqod in frant of the store awaiting a call. | â€" Apnother Instance _ > Not long pgo a local concern had a call from the south part of the city for a truck to move a piece of furniâ€" ture within 15 minutes. The feat was physically impossible if a truck had been ready | to start at a moment‘s notice. But nowadays merchants do not keep trucks idle awaiting chance calls. Idle trucks mean that large inâ€" vestment in rolling stock is not earnâ€" ing anything, so the business man tries to kee{) his vehicles ‘moving and | (Continued on page 7) | COMMUNITY CENTER CLOSED FOR SUMMER Director Walkup Returns to the Stage and Has Good Berth; To Go on the Road: The Community Service headquarâ€" ters on East Central avenue has been closed until Sept. 1, at least, and the director, E.
