Stokesia Lae vis (Stokes’ Aster). 
I T IS quite obvious now that the depression is 
over and if the majority of the business men will 
show a little restraint and a little common sense, 
in another year we will have forgotten all about it. 
It is true that prices must go up to meet increased 
labor and other costs. This, however, is no excuse 
for profiteering. 
So far as we are concerned we are going to sit on 
the lid by keeping our prices just as low as possible. 
We never handled junk stock and don’t intend to 
start now merely to give the illusion of fake bar' 
gains. At the same time we do not intend to raise 
our prices one cent more than is absolutely necessary 
to meet our increased labor charges and to maintain 
our quality. A few cents a plant will be enough at 
least until next fall.
