Our Spring showing fully j 2c = i | euton to the article appearing over my name in the column entitled, “Why a Commercial Club,” published in The Tribune of March 28rd, I desire to state that while I gave permission to its being published over my name, I did 90, without knowing that it contained any reflection upon trade unions. It was my thought that the quotations from the former Secretary of the New York Organization advocated only the maintenance of an active Com- mercial Club, and with this idea I am in hearty accord. Personally, I believe the trade unions have as great a mission to perform as a Commercial Club and that such organizations should work hand in hand for the advantage of the members of both and the com- munity in which they function. I am grateful to my friends for calling my attention to this article, thereby giving me an opportunity to correct the statement ingofar as it refers to trade unions. % REGAN. VISITORS HERE. James Warden, Charles Strum and William ‘Backman of Regan came lo ‘Bismarck last night and will be ‘here| several days on business. VISIT 'HIPRE YESTERSDAY. Miss Minnie Olson of Willmar,| It may be added-that upon being informed of my intention to publish this correction, Mr. Cox, President of the Commercial Club, authorized me to state on behalf of the Board of Directors ‘that the ideas which I have hereinbefore expressed with respect to trade unions coincide completely with the view of the Board, and that the Board of Directors regret exceedingly that such a state- ment should appear in any way, in an advertisement sponsored by the Commercial Club. The sentiment expressed in the statement referred to does in no way reflect the attitude of the’ Bismarck Commercial Club toward trade unions. * BURT FINNEY moun « : Poor Paint Worse Than No Paint bes , Poor paint is unprofitable, be- cause’ it doesn’t protect and pre- serve your buildings, as_ it should —is certain. to give un- satisfactory results. You would actuaily be better off not to paint at all than to. ey paint with poor paint. . .. First, because you would not be’out.the cdst of the job. Second, because a surface that has once been painted with poor’ paint is not in a condition to.be, painted over with good paintvuntil the old paint has been burned or scraped off in order to allow the good paint to ae hold. That’s an expensive jon. / Don’t forget that it takes just as much time and effort to work with poor paint as it does with ' good paint.
