RICHMOND JOBBERS. LEAD CINCY AND DAYTON FIRMS

Richmond's 50 jobbing firms did a total business of $7,570,000 during 1916. Thi3 was announced at the first gettogether dinner of the Jobbers' division of the Commercial club at the Westcott hotel last night. Seventyeight persons attended. Surprise was expressed at the mrnitude of the jobbing trade when the

figures were read by Secretary Haas of the Commercial club. Co-operation was the keynote of the dinner and all the speakers touched upon it. Pleads for Concerted Action Adam H. Bartei, the toastmaster, pleaded for concerted action among Richmond wholesalers and pointed out the advantage to the individual firms. J. M. Bobb, president of the Manufacturers' and Jobbers' association of the Columbus, Ohio, Chamber of Commerce, told of the experiences of his organization in federating for mutual benefit He explained the scope and

activities of the association in detail. Rev. Joseph J. Rae, of the First Presbyterian church, delighted his auditors with a series of humorous ttories woven into a telling address. Others who spoke on need for cooperation and the state of the jobbing trade jwere: J. J. Harrington, L. S. Bowman, W. H. Quigg, John Zwissler, A. H. Hood and Fred Bartei. Rev. F. A. Dressel, of First English Lutheran church, invoked the blessing. According to the figures read by Secretary Haas, three lines of trade had a volume of more than $1,000,000 last year. They were groceries, hardware and dry goods. Volume of business in the various lines follows: hardware, $1,500,000; dry goods, $1,000.000; groceries, $1,200,000; commission houses, $500,000; florists, $200,C00; flou-, $600,000; oil, $250,000; candy, $200,000; meat products, $400,000; bakersy products, $500,000; ice cream, $125,000; oysters, $50,000; all others combined, $1,045,000. "In some lines we even excel our large and boastful neighbors, Dayton and Cincinnati. Neither has as good a hardware store as Miller Brothers, and our boisterous neighbors to the uorth, Muncie, Anderson and Marion,

are , backwoods towns in comparison with Richmond as a jobbing center," said Haas. The toastmaster spoke of the debt of gratitude owed by the jobbing trade to the Transportation Serv'ce company and to Rudolph G. Leed3 for assistance given in extending business of Richmond wholesalers over the auto truck lines.

DRINK HOT TEA FOR A BAD COLD

Get a small package of Hamburg Breast Tea, or as the German folks call it, "Hamburger Brust Thee," at any pharmacy. Take a tablespoonful of the tea, put a cup of boiling water upon it pour through a sieve and drink a teacup full at any time. It is the most effective way to break a cold and cure grip, as it opens the pores, relieving congestion. Also loosens the bowels, thus breaking a cold at once. It is inexpensive and entirely vegetable, therefore harmless.

tage prayer meeting, Friday evening, 7:30. Miscellaneous A. H. Lewellen, of Indianapolis, will deliver discourse at K. of P. Temple, South Eighth street, near Main, at 11 a. m. Another lecture in same place, 2:30 p. m. Those interested in the signs of the times and the moaning of great world conflict invited to tear him. Lecture free and no collections taken at either meeting. All made welcome. Regular Bible study, 9:45. W. A. Buhl, Elder.-

Pimples in Sore Spots on Face and Neck. Could not Rest Healed by Cuticura

"My skin was as dear as could be when gradually it became red and itchy. When I rubbed it it began to burn and little pimples came on my face and neck. The pimples were in blotches and some festered, and they later developed into sore spots. They hurt so I could hardly stand it, and some nights I could not rest. They disfigured my face. "The trouble lasted about two months before I used Cuticura Soap and Oimx ment. Inside of a month the pimples be-A gan to take their former state, and when I used one box of Cuticura Ointment and two cakes of Soap I was healed." (Signed) Miss Margaret Frecke, Boone Grove, Ind., Oct. 2, 1916. In purity, delicate medication, refreshingfragrance.convenienceandeconomy, Cuticura Soap and Ointment meet with the approval of the most discriminating Unlike strongly medicated soaps which are coarse and harsh, Cuticura Soap is ideal for every -day use in the toilet, bath and nursery.

Do you know that the ministers last Sunday outdid themselves? They delivered soul-stirring messages, more forceful than usual. Do you know why? It was because they were inspired by larger audiences than usual. The response from hundreds of intelligent faces inspired them. There is no public speaker, no matter how great, can derive an iota of fire or inspiration from emptv wooden benches and a scattering handful of dozing persons. But the warmth of large numbers of appreciative auditors will lead a minister to put forth his best efforts.

If your complaint is that the minister preaches dry and uninteresting sermons, get busy and fill his pews for him. Then if you can still make the same criticism it will be justified, but not until then. Your part in the delivering of the pastor's sermon is almost as great as his own. He supplies the words and the voice and the gestures you furnish the spirit, the power and drive that makes the message appealing and gripping by your presence and respectful attention. Don't forget your duty to be present first and to bring others with you to the services.

Why Not Go Again Tomorrow ? You attended church services last Sunday, because it had been designated as Go-To-Church Sunday, a sort of rally day. Is there any logical reason for not making every Sunday Go-To-Church Sunday? . If you enjoyed the hour of worship, and you did, is there any room for supposition that you will not enjoy it tomorrow? True, you perhaps had to make a special effort to get there, perchance you had to forego reading the war news until your return from church. But did you ever obtain anything worth the having without an expenditure of time and energy? Beneficial even though the service was, you. did not get all out of it that there wa3 in it for you. The more you put into it the more you will get out of it. Put your whole soul and all your talents at the disposal of God. He will use you for the advancement of His kingdom. Blessings will be bestowed upon you, and as you increase your service to God, you will find in it wonderful consolation.

The Campaign Gathers Momentum - The simultaneous Evangelistic campaign launched last Sunday had for its purpose the re-consecration of church members and the leading into the church of non-members. Keen interest has been manifested at churches where services have been held during the last week. Attendance has been all that could be asked and the ministers have responded with vigorous practical appeals for right living. Services will continue in various churches during the coming weeks. You, whether a church member or not, are invited to participate in those services. On this page you will find announcement of plans for the various congregations. Go to the church of your preference and there you will find a warm welcome. If a non-member you will not be told that you are a blackened sinner, but will be invited to membership in the church with thousands of men and women who are trying to make this a better city in which to live by advancing God's teachings. Members owe it to themselves and to their pastors to be in their accustomed places.

What the Church Proposes To Do You ask why the church through its members does not take a more active part in improving deplorable conditions that are known to exist. The church already stands for Christian principles on every pressing problem before the community, the state and the nation. The Richmond Church Federation is today recruiting its forces, filling up the ranks with new men and women, in preparation for the most vigorous campaign for the propagation of practical religion ever conducted in Richmond. Its president and the church people of the city are lending moral and practical support to the prosecutor and the grand jury in their effort to rid the city of unwholesome institutions. The individual churches sent delegations to the legislature to use their efforts for the passage of the state-wide prohibition measure. . These are only the beginnings of a greater work, a program of education and of remedial measures that will be undertaken as soon as you are aligned with the forces of God.
