He sold rugs, jugs, jewelry, an assortment of odds a and ends. But there was one little thing wrong with the store; it didn't make much profit. The young man's name was Webb Young. He thought maybe he could ring the cash register oftener if he sold groceries, in addition to curios.

He tried, but people refused to buy bacon and corned beef from a curio store. Bewildered, he didn't know what to do. Finally he decided on two things. First, since he was able to scrape out enough each week to keep the pot boiling, he would continue his store. Second, he would develop a sideline.

But what? What could he do in Santa Fe? He did everything books say; he thought, he investigated, he used his tion, but found nothing. Then one day a tourist bought a necktie made by the Spanish people and asked to have it mailed to a friend in Chicago. As Mr. Young was writing down the name and address an idea hit him; could he sell neckties by mail? His second thought was negative. The idea must be old; so simple.

Hundreds must have tried it. Desperate, he decided to try it, any-. way. So he made a survey of what he would have to do, and learned that first he would have to raise $500. He had kept the names and addresses of many of the people he had sold things to over the counter; so he fixed up a small catalog and mailed it to his list.

What happened? The fifth day was brightened by nine orders. Then, suddenly and unaccountably, business began to boom. So he studied the necktie mail order business in earnest. He went to the mountain people who did the ancient weaving and engaged them to make colorful hand-woven ties. Praising their designs, he suggested minor changes.

He employed more Spanish-Americans living in the mountains, who knew the art of weaving, to turn out hand-woven ties. They caught the public fancy. Business zoomed. By growing a new twist to the old idea of selling ties by mail, he found. himself headed toward fortune.

In five years he lifted that $500 investment to where it was a $50,000 a year investment. His plan was very simple. He had a failing business, but one which turned in a small amont of money. He held on to it while he developed a sideline. The sideline had a new idea.

FORMER SCHOOL HEAD CALLS ON OLD FRIENDS Mr. and Mrs. James E. Gay, of Cavendish, who have been passing the winter at Del Ray Beach, in Florida, spent a few days during the last week with Mrs. E.
