100-Year-Old Man Still In Business Henry Lytton Marks His 100th Birthday Chicago, July 13—ll'Pl—Ih-nry ('. Lytton, who with Marshall F'eld mid Potter Palmer develop- : rd Chicago's Kfate street shop- ! ping center*, was 1"" years old today iml still in business. Lytton, sole surviving tm-mlmr rs the original State st reef council of II merchant princes, said his formula for a long life was "moderation in all things." He still presides at board meetings ami spends three to four hour* . drily chef-king sale* figures, hold-1 Ing conferences with top executives and overseeing Henry ('. Lvtton company's advertising. He planned to spend hl* birthday quietly at his summer home In St. Joseph. Michigan. Business methods, he said, have improved tremendously slue llm late Ikiltt's when he opened his first general merchandise store in the little town of t.ml.i, Michigan, at the age 0f,20 and became a pioneer In modern advertising techniques. "Early methods were so conservative tnat something drastic had to lie done altout them," he recalled. "Only during the last few decades ha* advertising taken great steps forward. And advertising is lo sellinK what steam Is to an engine. "I was successful." lie added, "because like Barnum (whoso sensational advertising of Jenny Linl ho remembers as a Isiyl. I didn’t stop felling people altout my store." Lytton startled the staid businessmen of the 19th century with his advertising stunts and was the first merchant to stage a wedding in a store window. He once throw 100 overcoats from the roof of his store into crowded State street. His most successful stunt camo In IKS" when he personally paid off a bet "on the Cleveland Harrison election in a show window. “I hail a bet with a newspaperman that if Cleveland lost I was to put on my dross suit and saw a half cord of wood in tin- front show window. Well, my man lost so I paid off the bet —even though they almost had to carry m<> out of the window and I hail to buy a new dross suit. "But it was a wonderful stunt," he smiled. '‘Thousands of people t ame to watch. They had to call out extra police to clear State street." Lytton began hl* business career In hl* native ‘New York al the ago of 15. earning 50 cents a week as an office boy In a law office. He entered the retail clothing I itsiness the next year and later went to St. Ixiuls where he man(get! to save enough money selling boots to Civil War veterans to open his own store in lonia in the 60's. After expanding to Grand Rapids. Michigan, he went bankrupt in 1676 us a result of the panic of 1X73 and for the next few years held a variety of Jobs. His chance came again when he took over the management of a nearbankrupt clothing store In Indir napolis and built it Into a $350,000 a year business. During this lime. Lytton saved |l2,<gg» and In IRB7 came to Chicago to found the Hub. which soon became one of the largest 1 retail stores in Chicago. He cont'nued In direct control of the 1 store until 1929 when he sold It for 67.000,000 By 1932. ols successor had overexpanded and in the reorganiza-

tlon that followed, Lytton, then H7, again assumed control of the bualnesa. Hl* policy of treating customers "with the same honesty and consideration extended to P*-rsonal friends" put the business li.ick on It* feet. —■ — ■ -• -(>- Ask Public Aid In Keeping Parks Clean I’lill Sauer, ilty street and pick c<iiniiils,<ie!:er. today Issued an appeal to per* n> using th** <ity parka to a *dst in keeping them clean.
