HIGH AIM ALWAYS IS BEST “The wise business man of today visits his competitor and talks over the business with him,” said J. H. Wiles of New York, vice president of the Loose-Wiles Biscult company, tauqua at Carter lake last night, ““Then he goes back to his own plant with new ideas and better energy for carrying them out. “Every merchant should lay out a mental course’ and work to it al- ways. The merchant who never alms high, never gets anywhere. But the man who aims high may never reach the goal he has set out for, but he will go a long way toward it.” Mr, Wiles referred to the movement on foot here to weld the retailers of the state into one big organization instead of hav- ing them divided into dosens of associa- tions as & worthy movement and a step in the right direction. “There I8 no more reascn for the re- tallers of the state to be divided iato dozens of speclalized state associations,” he sald, “than there is for Omaha to have fifty commercial clubs." 8. R. McKeivie, former lleutenant gov- ,ernor, spoke on the merchant, saying that he fills @ need and that that is his excuse for existence. He emphasized the importance of advertising iIn the suo- ceas of & merchant and declared that it is by advertising alone that new inven- tions are brought into use, There was no afternoon program of the chautauqua, owing to the fact that two big attractions were oh in Omahs be- sides the chautauqua.

SUB-TREASURY ACTION PLEASES James Wyness, former head cattle buyer for the Morris Packing company at the stock yards, and now chief cat- | tle buyer for the company at Oklahoma City; was visiting at the yards yester- day, bidding his many friends goodby. Excéllent prospects are in store for the Oklahoma yards, the cattleman told friends yesterday. He even predicted that within ten years the yards at that point would be crowding Kansas City among the great markets of the world, #0 good were the grazing prospects in the surrounding country. His many friends gave him a warm reception and when he wasn't looking pihned a beautiful dlamond stick pin in his tie while he was standing in the lobby of the Exchange bullding. He sald he thought he would like his new home immensely. Rob-Treasury to Be Maintained. The definite assurance given yesterday by members of the County Board of Bupervisors at their meeting in the county court house, that the subtreasury now located in the South Side city hall would be retained, was recelved with great ap- proval by citizens of the city.

Martin, who is at present visit- ing in Chicago, will be kept in the local department. During the busy months of the year an extra clerk will be retained, generally not more than a period of three months, At present a clerk from the nfain office is auditing the books turned over by the former city treasurer at the event of consolidation.
