All merchants and salespeople in the city are invited to attend. No charge will be made for admission. L Sprague, secretary of the chami aof commerce, has secuved the film and merchandising lecture through the Nz 2 ash Register | K company, /1 . 8. F. Fannon, expert lecturer of the Dayton com- pany, will be the speaker. The lecture has been given before commercial organizations and throughout the country and has been highly commended. Causes for losses and failures in retail business are shown, and their remedy told in the lecture, which has been prepared from the experience of the National Register company in i dealing with merchants in all parts of the world. A prominent place in the lecture is; given to the value of newspaper ad- vertising. By means of stereopticon slides Mr. Fannon will tell how to pre- pare newspaper copy, how to secure best results, and why a merchant should advertise continually. Window display, efficiency of clerks, selling methads, credit business, delivery problems and other topics of interest | to merchants will also be discussed. [ & The film tells in a vivid manner the | story of Mr. White, a merchant who is near failure. As the film progress- | es the reasons for his lack of succes become plans. Poor arrangement of | goods, an unattractive front, lax busi- ness methods, and most of all, out-of- date business methods, all contribut- ed their quota of loss. Finally a change comes in the ca- reer of Mr. White. He cleans up his | store, installs a modern system, and | rapidly rises to success. The film is | declared to have a business lesson in | every scene. | Many merchants and salespeople jn | this city are expected to welcome the opportunity offered by this lecture and | a large attendance is expected. | DIES UNEXPECTEDLY Mrs. Lobdell Was Takeny, Suddenly 117 | in Dental Office Yest.J<~7~Pcath | Was Due to Heart Failu !

DISTORTED SENSE OF HUMOR. Newspapers Have to Guard Against Unauthentic Notices. Through somebody’s distorted sense of humor this paper published a short item recently announcing the engage- ment of M dith Kirke of 173 Park street to James H. Parkington. The item was accepted at this officc in | good faith and was, apparently, given | in good faith since it was signed prop- erly. Subsequent investigation has shown that the story was not only un- authorized, but also false and the | signing was not done by the one | whose name was signed. All newspapers make every effort to exercise all caution in the printing of | announcements concerning marriages, births and engagements hecause there are, unfortunately, not a few poor deluded mortals who consider it the last word in humor (o send a newspa- per a story announcing the engage- | ment of some acquaintance. There- fore the rule has been made that no items of this sort be printed unless its truth is verified by some of the inter- ested parties. For this reason many such items, mailed or telephoned into the office, never appear in print and those in charge are ofttimes treated to a verhal assault by the reader. iortunately thare are only a few instances where the paper is giv- | en false information, but in an orrnn | to protect all, no items of this nature | are accepted unless, as far as possi- | ble, they are verified. Heretofore it was deemed probable that if an item was signed it was authentic. Now | standards of authenticity must be changed. A\ TION piGESTO @F;!-.N:é‘a@!fi in 1lks’ hall.
