PLEASANT HATH THE RETA

Notable Function at the V

When Retail Merchant Together. Splendid Re

Tho retail merchants of Charlotte-

town held a very enjoyable "get to gather" meeting at the Victoria Hotel lust evening ' The affair took the form of a dinner do :in opener and the spacious dining room of the hotel presented' an ani- mator] uppeurance when nearly forty business -men -gathered around the tables and partook of the excellent repast prepared in the Victoria/s best style.

The President. Mr. S. A. McDonald,

presided.

After all had done Justice to the

good things vprovidedthe toast of the King was called and the National An- them was heartily sung.

Next came the singing of a chorus

--"Smile, smile smlle," followed by re- marks from the president Mr. S. A. McDonald who happily remarked' that it was a .plea.sa,ut_ thing to see the merchants eating together. This was quite a change from the olden ilays when they used~ to be “eating each other." _ Mr. 'M>cDon`iv.ld"referred to the suc-

cess of the local organization and showed that all had come to realize that more could be done through co- operation than by individual e-fiort_

He then read the annual report in which hc said that in “glancing over tho past year and surveying conllit- ions as they exist today, we can well say that trud‘e conditions throughout tho province are in a more satisfact- ory condition than at any other por- ioii in its history.

lfrom making n closer study of the

economic law of supply and demand, the report went.on to say, one is for- ci-d to the conclusion that there are no immediate prospects of a. decline in prices either from the product of the furuis, the factory. or the mines.

While the above is true, the policy

of caution would new seem to be it sale' course to pursue in the retail distribution of merchandise, as it re~ qulres far more business foresight to finance on a declining market than it iii on an advancing one. f -It is a. well known fact that the great majority 'of the goods sold' in this' city during the past few years hive' been sold at prices by which théy could not be replaced by the merchant. we doubt it tho pnbiio novo glttenus due credit for same. fllhil 9001110 of the province as- ii whole are prosperous, ‘ thrifty and contbintod . We are 'not subject to conditions olfbabor and Capital as in the larger trade centres.
