I ¡vino C o s ts R ise L i v i n g L O S IS I X ls e A recent national query asking the opinions of rural editors on the chain store question, brought forth a large percentage of replies to the effect that chains are not a curse to the independent grocers, but an aid. Reason : They have shown him how to better his service to his customers, have forced him to “get on his toes” and adopt modern mer chandising methods, and have demonstrated to him the merits of mass buying . It is a matter of fact that a hundred illustra tions could be cited where independent merchants have run chains out of business—by offering lower prices, or by giving better service. And limitless illustrations could be cited where chain and inde pendent stores exist side by side, each catering to its trade, and each prospering . This kind of competition is sound. It keeps merchants, chains and independent—up to date. It protects the interest of the consumer—which, after all, is the most important matter at stake. And it gives the American people the highest standards of merchandising service existing in the world. V Untroubled Sleep— when you know yourpoisessions &re insured V Leon ard A d am s We hear much said along the line that the cry ing need of the country is less government and cheaper government, but there is not a session of any legislature that does not have its harvest of new laws and new expenses, while everyone talks of lower taxes, everyone works to increase taxes. A new tax, a gas tax or an income tax is levied, and immediately a new crowd is put on the pay roll. It isn’t long until the new levy is used up and a deficit is created. Then another new levy is worked out and the vicious never ending circle is begun again. The best way to reduce taxes is to refuse to credit new jobs that call for tax money and abolish a lot of jobs that have been created merely to reward some political worker. All the talking that is done in a million years won t re duce taxes as much as abolishment of a collection of useless jobs. R .1 N O UJ CIRCUS Governor Landon’s speech of acceptance—which pledged the encouragement of private initiative and enterprise, and followed the pattern everyone anticipated—has inaugurated the campaign in earnest. From now on, the political fur will fly thick and fast, with hostilities reaching their most tense point in October. Interesting aspects of the campaign is the con tempt some unbiased and distinguished political commentators are displaying toward both par;y platforms. These commentators tend toward the belief that the Republicans missed a great op portunity when they made their platform general, vague, filled it with “escape caluses.” They also seem to believe that the Democratic platform, while it lacks much in exactness, is the better written, more appealing document. But chances are that the platforms will play very little part in the campaign, aside from giving poli tical spokesmen opportunity to “point with pride” and “view with alarm.” The candidates them selves are the great factor. It will be a contest between the plain Landon personality and the glamorous Roosevelt personality. * * * * I he later years of lile are largely spent getting riel of many false ideas that have been acquired during the early years of life. One also often ac quires a lot of positive convictions during his earlier years and finds as he gets older that more knowledge often makes him less positive. * * * * \\ ith the improvement of bu siness, prices are bound to increase. Prices always advance when business is on the uptrend. Better business will see advances in all of these. * * * ■ fc j ^ .V i * * * £ * * * * * * « * ★ * * * • TAYLOR T hiun.-Fri.-Sat. “ A n n e of G r e e n G able*” w ith A nne S hirley and Tom Brow n plus "•|l«Nl S a lu te” R ob ert Y oung and B arbara Stunw yvk S uii .-.M oii .-T iic *.-W i d Aug. 9-10-11-12 “M utiny on ih e Bounty" Clark Gable, C hatles laiughton P ita “Gay IV ceptlon" F ran ces D ee and F ran ces I^edeger T ill RS.
