McCORMICK, 831 Mass. ec Ancient Superstition Failed To Save Two Victims of Mad Dog Eleven persons were bitten by a mad dog in Olizet, Kans., last week. Nine went to the University Hospital at Rosedale, and were cured by the stitches. Ten more two applied the time-honored "madstone" and died from hydrophobia. Gradually Kansans are finding out that the "madstone" is an unreliable remedy. Its widely-heralded curative powers are only those which a ball of packed hair possesses; in fact, the mad stone is hair which cows lick from their sides and which becomes knotted in a ball in their stomachs. Medical experts say there is no more healing power in a "madstone" than in so much hair from any other animal annually. It is also used in claws with that other superstition that a horsehair left in a puddle of water will become a snake. In the last year, 130 cases of hydrophobia have been treated at the University Hospital. In private hospitals, these pasture treatments cost one hundred dollars each, but they are administered freely by the university of Kansas to citizens of Kansas. This treatment of 130 cases saved people of the state thirteen thousand dollars last year—and the total appropriation given to the hospital was only twelve thousand dollars. DOUBLE TROUBLE AT THE VARSITY Tonight After the Meet-For the Benefit of THE MEN'S STUDENT COUNCIL PRESSING CLEANING REMEMBER DYEING TAILORING OWEN KNOWS 1024 MASS. ST PHONE 510 BELL The other day a University student went into a drug store to buy a hot chocolate. Displayed in the glass case underneath the table were combs, brushes and other articles which would take away a person's appetite. Add to that the fact that the chocolate was watery and you have—well, to say the least, a lost customer. If that man had been an advertiser in the Daily Kansan, this thing would not have happened. The owner of that store doesn't know how much he has lost through that little indiscretion. If you ask the students who advertise in the Daily Kansan receive suggestions from students in advertising about the little things in their business that count. They don't know it, but once every day a day some member of the advertisers in the store "tipping" around and looking out for the welfare of every advertiser. That is why it pays to read the ads in the Kanman and buy products that are EKRICE in the aim of every employee in the establishment.

BUTCHERS SEE MOVIES OF PACKING INDUSTRY Handling of meat from the stock pen to the cook was shown to the grocers and butchers at the short course of training pictures. It was the first time that the new projection machine which the University extension division has purchased has been put to use, was only installed yesterday morning. The first reel of the pictures showed a general view of the Chicago packing plant of Sulzberger & Sons. Processes involving the meat for market were shown The ly-products, wool, oeo, hair for upholstering, sheep pelts, and strings for musical instruments and tennis rackets were illustrated and the treatment of each shown down to the packing and shipping stage. SERVICE IS WATCHWORD OF MARSHAL FIELD & CO. Service in merchandising—that is the one point that has enabled Marshall Field and Company to build up its trade to the proportion that it possessed. That led D. Heller of Chicago, advertising manager of that firm, told the merchants last night in Fraser Hall. M. Heller showed several reels of motion pictures to illustrate what his company in the manufacture of cotton goods. The series of pictures that was shown constituted a complete history of a piece of cotton cloth from the picking of the cotton to the finished gin from the field through the gin and mill where it is made into yarn and dyed to the mill where the cloth is woven were shown in great detail. Mr. Heller also showed several garments before the movie-lecture started. The first part of the evening's program consisted of two selections by the University glee club, which won much aplause. Prof. Arthur MacMurray of the department of public speaking gave a recitation "Old Ace" by Fred Emerson Brooks. Professor MacMurray told how Mr. Brooks came to write the poem. The second recitation was a dialect poem by the same author, entitled "Dut Goat Vor Nootings he read the second poem he read a parody in Norse dialect on "The Courtship of Miles Standish." The parody was arranged by William F. Kirk. "It is time the merchants of today should stop criticising the mail-order house and learn more of their methods and put them in practice," said Ms. Neb, in an address given in the Merchants' Short Course at the University of Kansas today. Mr. Cowley is a country merchant who has met the big mail-order houses at his disposal. He has the merchants by figures on freight shipments how the business of the mail-order houses has been reduced MERCHANTS SHOULD LEARN OF MAIL ORDER METHODS MUSIC From the Press to KRESS VALSE ANNETTE MY SHIP OF DREAMS THE IRISH BLUES Nights--25c to $1 Matshes--25c to $1 NEXT: POTASH & PERLMTURT Have You Heard Remember the Price--One Dime SHUBERT MAY IRWIN Thure, Eva- Lucie, Dl.

"I have tried to be fair, not alone with my customers, but with the mail-order houses as well, and I have been able to have been in the grocery line, yet 1 am convinced that the mail order houses are giving splendid values for the money. It is not my belief that mail-order competition can ever be met by the merchant taking the position of mail-order goods are inferior nor by any other such talk to knock." "Instead of expecting that the farmer must trade in the town regardless of what you are charging him for his merchandise or what service you are rendering, try and consider that you have a duty to perform in community building by keeping in line with the law. You must make that town a good place in which to trade by first bringing your store and its policy up to standard." Myrle Irene Mitchell Presents The Carlo Grand Opera Co. Mr. Cowley thinks that the credit system, or lack of it, among small town merchants is detrimental. He advocates putting retail business on as nearly a completely cash basis as possible. He also told the merchant how the mail-order shipments in his town were checked up by a trade map of the cities which were most frequently ordered from the mail-order concerns, it was found that by the cooperation of the jobbers, the mail-order prices could almost invariably be met. Customers were offered a forfeit of one dollar in case their merchant could not duplicate any order made up from the mail order price list maintaining, of course, the reservations of the big business. Mr. Cowley believes that buy his customers' produce at market prices allowing only a sufficient margin to enable him to get the goods to market.

To be useful in building a good organization they should have驾龄, experience or technical knowledge of the particular field, skill, tact, energy, grit, honesty, judgement and good health, Professor Gilman said. "Study the mail-order situation in your town," he advised the merchant. "Avail yourself of the help that is awaiting you from your jobber and manufacturer, know your trade and know what to feel the need are trying to work for their interests. Fight for the mail-order business out in the open." "Your associates should be sociable, self-possessed, confident, courageous, courageous, generous, optimistic, buoyant, open-hearted," he explained. He took all the questions which are likely to arise in the mind of a man about to enter into a financial deal, pointing out the dangers and risks to his position on which he have a clear understanding before closing a deal.
