Mr. Murray had previously held tha. office for the two organizations and his work and roco.-d have been second to none. Mr. Murray felt that one branch would be enough for him to attend to, and so he still retains the secretaryship of the political Ass'n, while F. R. Oliver was elected Sec.

Price cutting in any business, is wrong in theory; if the dealer does not get the fair profit that he fairly earns on each transaction, he has to do one of two thing.3. He has to overcharge on something else, or he has to go broke. Price cutting in any business works out wrongly In liractice. If you buy a tube of cut- rate tooth paste in a cut-rate drug stpre, > jur apt to find, when you commir'^e operations on your ntfrlard next naorning, that it is so stale that you can hardly force the contents out of the tube. And the buyer of cut- rate printing \i more likely than not to find when he comes to examine the delivered goods, that the material is inferior and the workmanship worse. .J S. R. No. 9.
