" resolution was adopted unanimously:
.. "We demand of the manufacturers
an increase of 10 per cent of wages
on present schedule for all opera'
tiyes, the same to go into effect 011
; ' *? ?. I)ee, 11, and a reply is 'requested
on or before Nov. 24. In the event
of refusal we recommend all operac

Secretary Whitehead said : "This
is practically a recommendation to
strike Dec. 11 if our demands are
./refused."
" - The Textile council feels that its
\> position is justifiable so much so
that it is willing to submit the
* question to an arbitration committee
of fiye members, two members to be
elected by the council, two by the
manufacturers and the four to select
a fifth member.
The committee must report by

Advertising.
We heard a merchant say the other
day that he did not see the use of
advertising in the dull summer season.
Tic preferred to wait until fall,
then lie would advertise.
This is surely false economy. The
hare fact that it is a dull lime of the
year is an argument for advertising
Put your linger on a progressive and
prosperous business linn, one who
has busy clerks behind his counters
in season and out of season, and we
. will name you a man who advertises,
and keeps on advertising, and his
1 most attractive and - catelling ads.
uppr-ar in theuduli" summer season,
lie keeps bis business before the
peo])le, he lets them know of any
special leader he wishes to run. The
people go to him ar.u find that he
has bargains to offer them in clearing
off the shelves to make room for
i he new goods he has ordered. They
o *
remember the place where they got
their bargains in the summer, and
they invariably hunt him up
when they .get ready for their fall
goods. Those who get there are the
ones who advertise. There is a
right and wrong way to advertise.
To advertise successfully one should
secure a good advertising space ac
cording to the amount of advertising
he wishes to do.
Next he should make that space
as attractive and catchy as he can.
Not try to enumerate eveiy article
he has in stock?thus crowding his
space s > tjjat it has the appearance
of a patent medicine ad. and then
let it remain so for months at a time,
and expect the people to fioek in.
fie should make his announcements
short and spicy, calling equal attention
to some leaders or bargains this
week then change the next week to
something else, thus allowing the
printer to use his space with attractive
and catchy type.
Bv thus constantly changing his
ad. and conspicuously showing up
his specialties, the merchant teaches
the readers to watch his space for
something new, thus forcing the '
readers to read his ads. every week,
while the merchant with thecomructed
space, ever-crowded, and never :
changed, grumbles because his advertisinent
is not bringing him the
trade he expected. The up to-date '
wide-awake merchant, looks after
his advertising space the same as (
after any other feature of his business.
lie recognises the fact that
his advertising is a feature and one
of the most important features of his '
business. Nothing will push business
so well as intelligent advertis- 1
ing.
