Bellefonte, Pa., February 20, 1931, - ASTOR PREDICTS STARTLING EVENTS FOR PRESENT YEAR. The Rev. Charles J. tor of the First church, revealed to the Spiritualist | Uaited Press | of world im- | t events during 1931, obtain- ed, he said, through consultation with the spirit world. : Among the events forecast by Rev. Morrow for the next 11 months are repeal of prohibition, | death of Premier Benito Mussolini | William and defeat of Mayor H. ‘Tho by Judge John H. Lyle | dn Ccago's election. Also, according to the predictions, | the Prince of Wales will be serious- | ly ill during September, an unsuc- cessful move will be started to unite | Protestant and Catholic churches | and a steamship with hundreds of ers aboard will sink because | of an intoxicated captain. ! “Both my church and myself are | fully accredited members of the Na- | tional Spirtualists’ association with | headquarters in W " Rev. Morrow announced, “I stake my groisasional reputation on the be- lief that my forecasts will come true. “Last year I issued a list of 32 predictions. All except two of them “were fulfilled.” Messages frcm persons many years dead were used to make up the list of predictions, Rev, Morrow said. | For example, said that Con- fucius, the famous Chinese philoso- pher who died centuries ago, warn- ed him that unprecedented unem- ployment disturbances will occur in “China. Here are some of Rev. Morrow's other forecasts: There is a man coming out of ob- scu who will invent wings which can be attached to a man or woman ‘to lift the individual off the ground. Business in the United States will pe exceptionally and unem- ploymat will to decrease in pril. During the year, David Belasco, John D. Rockefeller, Marie Dressler and Von Hindemburg will die. The stock market will advance steadily until November and then decline, two of the largest steel com- nies will merge, three t mo- ‘tion picture companies will unite. A United States Senator will lose his mental balance, but there will "be little publicity connected with it. The United States and Canada “will have plenty of rain and sun- shine and an abundance of crops. A man named Edward Lynn, wi “the help of God, will discover a poul- ‘tice to cure appedicitis, There will be Communistic dis- turbances in the United States, an the of Japan; po! Mexico; disturbances in Turkey and religious disturbances throughout ‘the world. In one of the newer and largest buil will have a terri- ‘ble accident, due to poor founda- tions. There will be no loss of life, A railroad train going through a “tunnel in Montana will be stopped by a landslide. The train will k out again and not a person will be injured. In Arizona there will be discover- ‘ed a new kind of fruit which ap- rsto grow on bushes. Not as arge as an apple. It is to be eaten ‘raw and is exquisitely delicious, In Cleveland, Ohio, in a suburb, known ns Lakehurst, a fire will “threaten to destroy the whole suburb. PLAN SCRAPPING 3,000,000 OLD AUTOS IN U. S. YEARLY If wour auto is past the age of ‘even, you'd better watch out! For the scrap iron men will be “watching for the old buses as they ‘chig-chug along with banging fen- «ders and sagging tops, Plans are to wreck old cars at the rate of 3,000,000 yearly on an or- :ganized, wholesale system. So says Benjamin Schwartz, Néw York, director general of the Insti- tute of Scrap Iron and Steel. “Negotiations are being made with credited scrappers of steel in all «cities to handle the old cars,” he said. “Special equipment would be in- stalled for the work. Arrangements ‘would be made with dealers to turn over to authorized scrappers their ©ld cars. “*The yearly total of steel and iron salvaged would approximate 1,500,- 000 tons. “This would mean a conservation of 7.500,000 tons or iron ore and other materials that go into the manufacture of iron and steel. “The scrappers would be selected ‘from members of our on, which would be for the entire work, said Mr. Schwartz. One =» the centers would be in Pitts- rgh. Negotiations for the proposed sys- tem are expected to be completed “this summer, according to Schwartz. At present there is no system of scrapping old autos, independent wreckers buying them at random and salvaging old parts to add to “their profits. Dr. R. L.

HIS FIELD NOT RESTRICTED Local Merchant, on Other Hand, Must Give Good Values and Service in Order to Hold His Trade. (Copyright.) It has been said that there is a sucker born every minute. If this be true, there are 1,440 potential custom- ers of the mail-order houses ushered into the world every 24 hours and the year. Of course, as Mark Twain remarked regarding reports of his death, these figures may be exaggerated, but they serve to illustrate the fact that the mail-order houses of the big cities al- ways have new flelda to exploit and are not hampered in thelr dealings by the necessity of pleasing all their old customers. If the mall-order buyer discovers that he has been “stung” and registers a vigorous kick, it means nothing in the young life of the mall order man. Why should he worry as long as there are some 90,000,000 other persons in the United States to whom he may make his alluring appeals.

Local Merchant's Field Limited. Compare the position of the mall or . der man with that of the retail mer- | chant in the small city or town. The retail merchant has a certain limited | _ territory from which he must draw his | trade. All his business must be done | day after day and year after year among the same people. The buyers | to whom he can appeal for business | number only a few thousand at the | most and in some cases a few hun- dred. Unless he can make his cus- tomers his friends and bring them back to his store again, he cannot con- tinge in business. The result is that he looks beyond the single sale which he may be making at the time. It is to his interest to please every one of his customers. It will profit him noth- ing to make a big profit off a customer on one sale If that customer is not satisfied with his purchase and refuses to come back to his store again, From which man can the buyer ex pect to get the best values, the best service and the best prices in propor- tion to the quality of the goods sold? From the man whe must please him and give him his money's worth In or- der to remain in business or from the man who figures that he may never hear from the buyer again and that it will make no great difference whether he pleases him or not? Gets It While He Can. The idea upon which the mail order man works is to get the money while the getting Is good. If the customer is satisfied with the goods which he re- celves, all well and good. The mall or- der man knows that the customer is the kind of a man or woman who customer is chance even if the first does not turn to his king. If the customer has spirit to ake a kick, the correspondents In charge of. to a chance on the offer- the mall order house. The has something nt stake ! in every sale that hte makes.
