C. : T A UVMH VI W*? * ?HllllllllllllllllH|lllllllltllllllllllllllllllM> I fjLj Spring 1 ill ^?at Suits, I Continue to Trade is the Sensi >Ie ^ > Solution ; (From The Florida Metroplolis) ? When the pickle bottler said to the j|| ! milk operator, "Your price is bounc j|| | to come down, therefore I am going ? to quit using condensed milk until it j|| ! does," at that very moment an idea g| J was put into operation which has done ||s more to hold off normalcy than any j|| ! other step that could possibly have js| J been taken. The milk evaporator im? mediately said: "Well I think the 8|1 ! price of pickles is exhorbitant and 1 \ will quit buying them until there is s|s a general reduction." j|| ! The milkman was then forced to g|s \ cut down on his output and strike a rag per centage of his workmen from tne og payroll, which naturally transferred |? | them to the ranks of the unemployed. It was only a short while before the ! pickler was forced to follow suit J Then the popcorn man found hope ^ in what the milkman had to say about ! the price of pickles, and was overjoy- t|| J ed when he heard the pickler make 1 the prediction that the price of milk ! would be reduced shortly, and he de\ cided to use neither milk or pickles gig until the prices decended to a pre-war > basis. 8?? ^ The milkman and the pickler had both been in the habit of buying pop- f|| I com for the kids, but with business ! hitting some and missing a great deal jag | they came to the conclusion that the ft# ? wise policy was to quit buying pop! com until their businesses became ?p J normal again, or at least until the > price of popcorn was less. ?|g ! The is the status of "hard times" ||3 ' in a nutshell. The illustration can ?gj ; be applied to cover practically tho ? whole nation, and while this innocent j|| | appearing boycott continues there can |j| ; be no sensible plan of readjustment > worked out. Examples are generally gi ! unsatisfactory in the business world. ; Cooperation is far more effective; and || > if the milkman and the pickle man g| | had agreed to make earnest efforts || | to reduce their prices, at the same |* ? time continuing to trade with each fi I other, and if the popcorn man had Jg J been taken into the plan, the only sen- ? ? sible initial step would have been ! taken. \ In other words, this idea of "wait? ing to buy" is not the proper course || ! to follow. "Buy now" and at the || | same time do all in your power to en- || courage a return to normal times, whatever they are, and let this thought || ) be extended to all clashes and a long || ' move has been made in the right di- || i recti on. || j To prevent a cold take 666. ^ Bgagaags^vgeoMiff^^ ""***? ; Goods A Coats, Dresses, V Styles and 1 ? ill Line of ?
