PAGE FOUR TRY ON BOTH SHO%P Â¥ ADVICE OF ERTS Big Store lnvelflntw * Delay in Sales Cauged : Otherwise > A corporation operating thain shoe| tion of their business to learn where | they were wasting wasting) time and | effort and how ‘to sell nore shoes| m& increasging the number of} clerks, writes Fred Kelly in The Naâ€"| ing discoveries. One of these was that | a definite ‘cause of delay \in selling| shoes is the common practice of tryâ€"| ing on only one shoe‘instead of two.} In other words, a sale is mdre quickly | na&uhwebrkhutcum try on i right and left shoes. The explanation is that, with a| new shoe on one foot, the customer is‘ slow making up his mind. He says to him< self: * I don‘t know about this. Oh, if only the new one felt as good as the ‘bid one!" Then he tries on two or three other designs, hesitating‘ each tinte, because of the contrast between the feel of the old and th¢. new, beâ€" fore he finally buys. If has new shoes on both feet, he has no chance to make such a comparison, and is perhaps pleased with the first pair he tries on. _ * C 'ThlS Sale Come in and see our display of these modern Ga Sell We will allow you your old gas or toward\%he purcha% a new (Cabinet G equippe "Lorain North Shore Gas Cor d with . the ‘ oven heat Your [( ‘}&mmbkr, the gustomer was far w ly t;'! which style he Solly emenbeer thin man net \;‘;l'.y r?m | thi P‘; % COLUMBIA RIVER, AN HISTORIC STREAM Key That Unlocked Great West and Add:: Three States $ \ _ to the Union { Large| looms the Columbia river in the history of our country. â€" It was the key that u ed the great northâ€" zest anfl‘: three states to the nionâ€"the only portion of the Ufig: States acquired by right of discovery, possession and gettlement. _ _ _ : It was in the mouth of the Columbia that Captain Gray, of Boston, saile His shi;{ the Columbis in 1792 an raising (the rs and stripes, took possession of the northwest in the name o?the United States. . . _ | Here,| where |\the ?izhty umbia tumbles| its ers ‘into the Pacific, Lewis and Clark, fl\‘; to c ‘our Ns w;;u“'”“ ies theafle r rn nation‘ in the winâ€" ter of 1805â€"06. || â€" ) | fl | A six years saw the Astorâ€" Hunt \expedition, . traveling ‘by land and sea, establish at the mouth of th Columlz&, the Qt'st permanent Ameriâ€" can settlement on the‘Pacific coast. ~â€"Then followed the outriders of emâ€" pireâ€"the missipnary, the trapper, the adventurer. °; | t wC nouatt Came 1843! ‘Thrilled by the story of the . ise beyond the mountains and fired by the militant ery of "54â€"40 or fight!" of Benator Thomas Hart Benton, the 07 drawn| covered wagon trains gtarted moving westward on the greatest migration of all history, bringingwwithi a 'littg'le' more than a decade 200,000 ettl‘:? «who establishâ€" ed ‘h;?:ea, ghools |and churches, founded an emmpire, and saved the great northwest for the Union. .\| ; If you ask t} for n ‘thcilr: bitems. { rts Monday, Septembe d Gas or Coal P e home town knockers items sound more like $10.00 for :oaI' range e fi)rice 4'of' as éRange ‘ genuine regulator. FEW FARMERS USE _ ELECTRIC POWER Women Often Doing Work with Equipment 50 Years Beâ€" hind Times Often _ Only 2% per cent, or 164,347 of the 6,500,000 â€"farmers. in â€"the . United States, are receiving services from electric© light and power companies, says a report made by the rural elecâ€" tric survice committee of the Naâ€" tional Electric â€" association. â€" Inâ€" dividual farm lighting â€" and. power plants are in use by about 200,000! farmers, the committee found. . And Samuel S. Wyer, of the Smithsonian institution, at another time and in anâ€" other place, gives testimony in behalf of electric power to lighten the hoiuec‘ hold tasks of rural women. He says: that the women on the farms are do'-" ing their work with equipmentfifiy' years behind the upâ€"toâ€"date facflitios‘ used in barn and field. ‘ ‘Now, isn‘t that a bodkin to puncâ€" ture conceit over the pace of national progress ? ©But it does seem that with all the talk of relief for farmers, there might be ‘some relief for farmers‘ wivesâ€"who in addition to their chores have to live with the farmers. At least, the politicians could wish the rural women more powerâ€"just by way of megning "volts for farm woâ€" men." RAISING COYOTES FOR FUR, NEW PLAN Saskatchewan Farmer Starts on 4 Profitable Side Line; Domestication of coyotes for the commercial production of fur has been â€" successfully â€" inaugurated in Saskatchewan â€" Province, _ Canada. Coyote farming promises to become as popular a side line as silver fox ranchâ€" ing among the small farmers of the prairie provincesg. . _ d o. _â€" D. J. Doerksen of Rush Lake is the pioneer of the new industry. Five years ago he found a den ‘of THE HIGHLAND PARKX PRESS, HIGHLAND PARK, ILLINOIS Report Says coyote pups on his farm. He was attracted by ‘the. furry little aniâ€" als and decided to keep one out of eur . He fed it milk and goâ€" 1ers, n it was so tame it played with the children: and evinced no | desire. to return to : the wild haunts ite pmr ts. After the doâ€" mestication of first puppy be caught several rs. He raised these wi difficulty and laid. the basis for a successful commercial enterpri Since then he has addâ€" ‘ed mew mmls otgthe rate of fifty a year fi catching in addition to the increase from breeding. “p(»me*fiutbd t yotes," said Mr. Dogrkse c very tame.
