That is what thei American people axe demanding
today. There was "a time when people believed in
searching- for cheap goods. The wholesaler, retailer, and the buying* public, have come to know that
it is a wrong* view. First we will taJse a can of tomatoes-—a cheap tomato contains water, pulp and
pieces. A standard can is full to the top with pure
tomatoes. A cheap can of corn will contain cob,
string's and corn. A standard,can will be a solid
pack of choice corn.
You can feed twice the number of people with a
good can of corn or tomatoes that you can with
the cheap g*oods. Which has proven that Quality
a.nd not Quantity is the cheaper.

A COMMUNICATION
FROM H. J. KURTZ
Answering- the Article in a Recent Issue From the Pen, of'Rev.
Ralph W. Brown.
Dear Air. Wilson:
Someone recently .sent me a copy of
your paper containing the items in
reference to the Chautauqua. I was
especially interested in the article
written by Rev. Brown. -It appears
to me that the impression people' received after reading that article will
lead thgin to- believe thait th,© management of the chautauqua did not present the matter of reeontracting in a
fair aiid honest manner.. I .believe,
therefore, that an explanation is necessity, for I don't want the mai'.:*
friends whom I have met at Saline for
the past three suiuemrst to feel that I
took any modus advantage in reference to the signing up of next year's
contract. .
Not a single 'persons in Saline was
asked to sign a chautauqua contract
either by myself or anyone* else until
enough tickets were pledged to assure
the success of thfe cihiaiuta.uau!a. Approximately one hundred people pledged these tickets. It was their eii-
doprsement of satisfactory service and
programs that the Community Chautauqua System, ha.s given to Saline for
10 years. The Chautauqua belongs to
the community. It is for the community at large to) decide questions of
this nature aind when more than
enough tickets aire pledged .to support
a chautauqua it shows that publ'c
opinion has expressed itself ass being
satisfied amid willing to continu*
along the same lines as heretofore.
If the program or service had been
poorly rendered the tickets -would not
have heen. pledged. Bemuse the program was the hest Saline has had, it
seemed as though everyone was willing to take hold of the chautauqua.
for another year. It was then that I
presented next year's contracts to Mr.
Lutz and Mr. Miller, who bath read
them, over very carefully and after
finlding them to be exactly as >rep:*p=-
sented",; presented them to the committee for their signatures and practica'—
ly everyone signed the contracts.
The chief business of the platform
manager is to secure a renewal contract and I want now to explain in as
few words as possible why this is necessary. The time to sign up a new
contract is during the time that thc
' chautauqua is in session. That is th?
time that enthusiasm runs high and
the people who approve of chauta':-
quas aire under the big -tent. It is not
a wise thing for one man or a small
group of men to decide what the town
should; or should not have. B<-eryo-.e
who buys, a chautauquai ticket has a
voice in the matter. Assistaaice can
be secured .from the crowd in. the tent
thait is not available at any other
time. The fact that ,a program is net
made up for next year is of little importance. Tihe name and reputation
of tihe chaiutauqua system, is a positive
guarantee of next year's program,
wihen you buy a can of Campbell's or
VanCamp's baked beans you never demand tliat the can be opened that you
may see exactly whait you are buying.
You know- the brand and take it for
granted that the contents of the can
are good. Tlie same is true about
books, magazines, clothing and all
other commodities olf life. The Community Ghautauqtias have se-vet
many towns for 10 years now and
still retain them on the circuit. Saline being numbered among these

SOME PEOPLE WONDER WHY      j
ISvery line in a newspaper costs the '
proprietor something. If it is for the '
benefit of the individual it should he
paid for. If the grocer were asked to ,
contribute groceries to one abundant- i
ly able to pay for them he -svould re- ;§
fuse. The proprietor of a newspaper ,
must pay for the free 'advertising if ,
the beneficiary does not, and yet It is ;
one of the hardest things to be learn- j
ed by manly, that a newspaper has {
space in its columns to rent, and must j
rent them to live. To give away rent j
for any thing less than living rates is >
as fatal to <a newspaper as for a land- ,
