Many Towns Without R.eration Cn-.'tir-Hivi W 6n.T The warmer the weather gets the mora do the children want to ' play. But where can they frolic and, run about as they like? Almost every town in this country. Including our own, is confronted with this question. Some have answered the question al ready by either providing a public 1 in 7 AT PLAT IX PUBLIC PLATOSOCJTO. ' playground or accepting an offer from some private citizen who has been generous enough to offer one. y "Happy Hollow," a magnificent play ground of Philadelphia, was present ed to the Playgrounds association by Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Clark, Jr. The playground, with its beautiful grounds, its wading pool and playhouse, is one of the finest in the United States, if not in the world, and cost more than $100,000. Mr. Clark presented the grounds without any stipulations, and the only restricting 'provision was in troduced at the suggestion of the as sociation, , that the property shall be used forever for play purposes and shall always be open to the public. A MENACE TO RETAILERS. Buying Exchange Threatens to Tak. Business From 8mall Merchants. It is a question whether or not the buying exchanges can be made to sup plant the jobbing bouses and the wholesale establishments, says the Ag: ricultura! Southwest. In certain lines it may' be possible to make the ex change a power, but in general lines it appears that it will be' a dlfi&cult matter to improve upon the establish ed system of distribution. In fact, the manufacturer cannot well maintain de pots directly under his own supervi sion in the different distributing points. Neither cau the ninnuger of an ex change estnblish warehouses at all im portant points and carry In stock goods for distribution. This would be mere ly a multitude of wholesale houses un der one munnjrement and would not be any improvement over the present system, but rather a menace to the re tail trade. , It is possible tor n dozen or more stores to combine and do purchasing collectively. In fact, this is now a plan pursued by a number of western con cerns. ' But we venture to say" that as an economical proposition the buy ing exchange will not. be found more advantageous than the established fys tem of from manufacturer to Jobber and from jobber to retailer, a system that is the outgrowth of a few thou sand years of commercialism. V The early worm is easy picking f for the first bird. THE VALUE OF A KICK. It Is Good For Your Business to Know People's Opinion of It; The best time to remedy a mistake la before it happens. And the next best time is' as soon after it happens as possible.' ( No business bouse can know too much of what the outside world thinks of ItA The average man Id slow to complain. That is why thousands of concerns are habitually back on their orders. The average man will let the grievance pass, but next time he takes bis business somewhere else. The big department stores In large cities realize the importance of know ing what possible' grievances i eiile may have against them. They put the complaint department in the most ac cessible places, and they make sure that the person with the kick may he nble to give it while it is hot. ' "Please complain when anything seems wrong." is the constant Invita tion to the public. "We want to treat ou right, but wo can't watch every thing at once," 11 SPECIAL THAIU Rif.i us urn JfOT DEFINITELY AOOUSCED AS ' YET, HOWE TOE. If Train Is Provided, Will Leave at . 8 O'CIock Sunday.
