July 17. We were too busy right up to train time to figure up just how many watches were sold on theMOVIE PLAN, but it must have been close to $1,000 worth, and mind you in only one day at that. Mr. Baker will probably continue the sale for a few days more. Everybody who bought a watch was simply amazed at the.values offered and the easy payment ierms for such high grade stock. There will be no excuse for anyone not to own a good watch when they can be bought at such terms. “I have seen a great number of these sales pulled off and I can truthfully say that while all were successful, in spite of the fact that Bemidji was the smallest town of them all, it was the biggest and most successful sale on my entire circuit. I believe that it was due largely to the advertising medium used and the manner in which the copy was prepared. Why man, the mer- chants in your town, if they are wise and knew just how to make use of the bright, newsy sheet at their disposal, would certainly swamp you in advertising. “Please send me copies of the papers containing the ads, as my firm wants to look them over and then I will try to persuade them to have you run off a bunch of bills of these ads, so that they can be used among their trade all over the United States.

All knew, those who remained waiting as well as those who went to war, that for 44 years Germany has been living, eating, sleeping, drinking, dreaming war and that this war had come. What about France? ‘Who was General Joffre? Who were the other generals? Newspapers had but recently declared that France was unprepared; was this true? And all went on being troubled in secret lest France should again prove un- ready. i} After vague news reached Paris that Gemeral Joffre was in retreat from Charleroi, the 1870 bugaboo loomed bigger and bigger. Mau- beuge was invested; Lille was occu- pied. Then there came the silent, tense days, without any real news. The government moved to Bordeaux; the Germans were now in Maubeuge, Compiegne, Soissons, Rheims, Cka- lons, Epernay, Luneville. Verdun and Nancy were seriously menaced. Paris, it seemed, was doomed and Uhlans were reported to be at the gates. The worst fears of soldiers and homefork seemed realized. It looked like another 1870, only worse. Still there was no panic. - There ‘was the exodus of thousands of peo- ple who objected to living in Paris during a German occupation, but the,| city was calmn. France’s “sacred ‘union” held firm.

They did not know the Battle of the Marue was being fought, nor that Joffre had performed, by winning a victory there, a sort of eighth wonder of the world. Yet this was true. General Bonnal said of this battle: “This is the first time to my knowledge that a great army, re- treating and fighting at the same time and for eight days in succession, was able to furnish the effort by it- self to transform-instantly its long and painful retreat into an irresisti- ble offensive.” Yet that is what the French army was able to do. Through this victory a new France was born. The Great Doubt was lifted, the 1870 bugaboo banished. The people were given confidence in the army, the army in itself. Henceforth, whatever may happen .to the French soldier, he will refuse to be discouraged.
