M. arin proprietor of the Hhoom Shoe and Clothing company, 4 ¢companied by Mrs. Elgin, left last ing for an extertded ‘business trip cat: “They will visit in Chicago and other eastern markets.» War condi- tipns had caused a scarcity of sample lines but the abrupt ending has re- leased many fabrics and colors which would have been unavailable had the war continued. Mr. Elgin deemed it best to make a personal inspection tfip to the manufacturers and whole- sale plants in the fashion centers to pérsonally select a down-to-the-minute | :line of men’s and boys’ wearing ap-| parel for the 1919 season. (The recent clearance sale and the more than popular cut in prices which have--been in vogue during the big sale-at-the Bloom store has reduced the stock to a minimum. This sale will end‘ Friday, Feb. 28, on which day, in addition to the general sale prices throughout the store a sensa- tional hat‘gale has been ‘arranged for the closing day,'as a fitting climax to the most/successful clothing sale ever held by the Bloom ‘Shoe and Clothing companys" INVENTORY OF “BOOZE STOCKS ' IS TAKEN HERE <€.

It is what Swift & Company earned in 1918. 2 cents on each dollar of sales —only a fraction of a cent per pound—was too small to have any noticeable effect on prices. 11% on investment (capital and surplus) means only fair re- turns to the 25,000 shareholders; they received 8% dividends in 1918. The 1918 earnings of Swift & Company were equivalent,to a profit of only $212 on Sales of $12,000 W ould you be content with, that margin of profit in your business? pe area Mrs. Mary A.
