After leaving Midvale the party went to Draper to inspect the farms of Andrew Sjoblom, J. R. Rawlings and Heber A. Smith, and the feed and grading plant of the Draper Poultrymen, Inc.

Benson returned to this city after a wee}:: spent in Ogden, where he attenclcd the annual spring convention of the J. C. Penney com~oday pany. "The meeting at Ogden was the largest in point of numbers, ever held by tJ::e company in this district," he .>tate d. "I was particularly interested in che spirit of confidence which prevailed among all of the store managers present. If there is any real business depression it certainly failed to show up in the discussions which were carried on regarding sales conditions in this section of the country. "General sales reports for the J. C. Penney company for the first few .nonths of the year have shown outstanding gains and there is every indicatwn that these gains will continue. "Spcal;ers at the convention impressed upoi! every manager the vital necessity of serving the local com·!lunity in every way, not alone as a store but as a local institution. "This, they said, was the spirit of the founder of the company, when he npened up the first store at Kemmerer, \·Vyo., from which the present .;tructure has grown. "The buying sessions which occupied four days revealed many interesting new developments in women's ready-to-wear clothing, in novelties and in general dry goods merchandise i terns."
