TRADE NANTANNG NS UPWARD TREND Moderate Slackening in Retail | Trade Attributed to Stocks Exhaustion New York, Aug. 14.—(4)—There was little change in the tempo of trade and industry this week, accord- ing to Dun & Bradstreet. A moderate slackening in retail buying was attributed to the exhaus- tion of summer stocks and to high/ temperatures which deflected interest from early fall displays. In wholesale markets, the review said Friday, previous gains were wid- ened, with more orders coming from . some of the drouth districts. Gen- | eral industrial operations were steady, lower rates in some divisions being counterbalanced by a rising trend in | others: | “Even though retail sales were | maintained close to the 1931 lev the agency reported, “consumer buy ing was not so brisk as during the ; opening week of the month. The dwindling stocks of summer merchan- | dise reduced the usual number of clearance sales, and the acquisition of fall goods was hampered by the hot weather.” RICHMAN PREPARES FOR OCEAN FLIGHT! | Singer-Sportsman Has Numer- | ous Safety Devices Aboard Transport ‘Lady Peace’ 1 1 : ‘ | | | | a ar world-wide search for his beautiful wife, the former Daye Dawn, once-famed chorus girl, and his son, Eugene, Jr., pic tured just before their disappearance, ended when Eugene Ww.

I rejoice in American ways and means of travel, There are few cars in northern Europe. No wonder, for a car costing $850 in Fargo sells for $4,700 in Oslo, Norway. In “Copen- hhagen, Denmark, we rode bicycles. There they have 480,000 bicycles for one million people. There ts no drink- ing water in even first-class coaches. Why should there be, for the porter can serve you with wines or beer. The most familiar sight in all of Paris is the endless number of small tables and chairs in front of the hotels and restaurants extending out over the sidewalk where men, women and some children sit at all hours of the day drinking wine and’ beer. Breakfast in Europe, in time and place, is much the same as ours. Din- ner is usually from 2:00 to 3:00 and supper from 8:00 to 9:00. Coffee is made black and strong, boiled until it is bitter and served with lots of of ple nor a stack of wheat cakes in all of my travels on the continent. Coffee, with a piece of cake and a cookie, is the customary lunch dur- ing the forenoon and afternoon. Tea takes the place of coffee in England, and wine and beer in France. Dare I say a word about the women? T'll risk it since I am at a safe distance. The women of the Scandinavian countries impress me .as being thor- oughly good; great homelovers hav- ing the highest of, moral standards and not given to much play nor friv- olity. The older women still wear their hair long. Only the young bob their hair and use lip rouge. As one comes south through Europe to France and England, the women be- come like those of America in looks and dress. The hair is bobbed and cosmetics are more the rule. Wed- ding and engagement rings are worn on the right hand. The womeh of France and England are incessant cigarette smokers. Americans are great advertisers, milk, not cream. I did not see a piece good show people, Europeans are not. They do not have the art of Yelling visitors about things. Most of this. is done by talkative Cina yinrite been imported the travel Oslo has a eect collection of old curved furniture depicting life in the early days. The girl who showed us around could tell us nothing about the various pieces. There was no label nor placard. Only a number on each piece that referred to the descrip- tion in a catalogue kept in the office which they preferred not to show. Police know little about their own cities. I went to church and discov- ered that they do not have ushers. At the Sunday school convention we had ushers but all they were good for was to pass out literature at the door and keep the aisles clear to meet police requirements. Faithfully yours, Cc. A.
