In order to do a good job she must know what, when and where to buy. She must study goods and the concerns which make goods and have them to sell. She must put her home on a business basis and run it oh, business principles in order to make the most of the family income. Information is the only basis for intelligent purchc sing. And the right way to get the greatest amount of necessary information is to read the advertisements. Advertisements tell you what is neif and good in merchandise. They reveal improvements and in-ventions to make your home life easier, more comfortable and more convenient. They give you information about a thousand and one things that are useful. Every manager 0 a- household- every member oj the household who shares the responsibility for the family's welfare should mae a habit of readins the ads. Read the advertisements in order to buy wisely mlssable because she had not been sworn: and she should have been sworn because Iter examination showed that she understood the necessity of telling the truth. 8ankey's counsel also argued that this girl's evidence had not been PERMISSION ASKED BY ROWE TO BUILD .
