SOCIALISTS PLAN MILLION
DOLLAR CO-OPERATIVE STORE
CLEVELAND — Cleveland
socialists plan a direfct assault
on the high cost of living
here tomorrow by organizing a
co-operative company to distri
bute food and other staples at
wholesale prices. It is planned
to join the 1,000 socialist families
here into a compact organization
which will buy staple supplies
through one warehouse, the
warehouse being financed by
themselves. Through this organi- j
zation, the socialists hopt. to
control more than $1,000,000,
worth of home supplies. The
plan, it is figured, will sate the |
members about $200,000 a year.
The Bohemian socialist’s or-;
ganization, the pioneer in Cleve~j
land in co-operative buying, or
ganized four years ago with a
membership of 165 families, will
be used as the nucleus of the 1
. — ... «■ — ■
larger organization To tiiia.net
the new organization stock will
be sold m S5 and Sio shares.
It is not planned t>• open i
store. Instead there will he a
central warehouse. Routes foi
delivery will be mapped and wa
gons and autos will go out
weekly to visit and restock
homes of members of the organ
ization. In England and Scot
land similar organizations haw
been in operation for years and
their annual business runs into:
millions of dollars.

DEATH OF A MODERN
KING SOLOMON
*> -—
James William Wood, a selfw
styled “King Solomon,” who, a
quarter of a century ago, headed
ihe religious sect known as “The
. Vrmy of the Lord,” is dead at
ihe age of 85 years. During the
< arly eiglhties Wood was a reviv
vilM in /Australia, associated
with Prophet Dowie in the tru»
teeship of a Baptist chapel, hut
later hc came to England and
engaged in faith healing. Being
of striking figure and of patriar
chal appearance, with leonine
face and vdhite beard, he deeph
impressd those with whom he
cam in contact, even people d
wealth ind position. He ac mir
cd a 1 1 ding at Brighton an.- .
he called “The Sanctuary m le~
hovah,” and presiding there as
‘King Salomon” he estal .isln >1 :
nis sect, "The Army of the
Lord.”
Many enthusiasts sold all their
possessions in order to go to live
within the circle of his influence.
Wood donned robes of purple
and gold and sat on a throne,
while his followers—men, wo
men and children, danced before
him in a central space until they
fell exhausted at his feet. This J
and other sorts of emotional ex
travagance, however, became S1' ;
repulsive to outsiders uhat riot*
occurred and W ood and his sect
were finally forced into obscur.

SWEDES PLAN TO
MAKE SEA GOING
TRAINS A REALITY
—
STOCKHOLM—Having prac- 1
Really completed planjs for a
railroad car furry system be
tween Gothenburg, Sweden, and
an English North Sea port, pre
sumably Immingham,the Swedish
board of trade is considering es
tablishing a similar line from
Stockholm and Abo, England.
With the system in running j
order, a car. even a train, might
make the run from Vladivostok
to Abo„ cross by boat from Abo
to Stockholm, go by rail from
Stockholm to Gothenburg, trav
el again by ferry from Gothen
burg to England and unload in
the latter country for the first I
time. The proposition is to run '
10,000 ton boats on the Anglo-1
Swedish line daily in each direc
tion.

Advertising Is An
Not an Expense, and Should be
treated as Such
Because if has been llie liabit ,
of some merchants to look upon
it as an expense, A WRONG
VIEW HAS BEEN GAINED.
Perhaps the misconception arose
from the fact that in bookkeep
ing it has been the habit to
charge advertising tn expense.
ADVERTISING PRODUCES

Only the man who looks upon
advertising as an expense, who
is afraid of it. prejudiced against
it, loses moriev in advertising.
The man who treats advertis
ing as an investment and gives it
the attention an investment re
quires—knows that every dollar
rightly invested in this direc
tion yields compound interest—
