The business man who refuses te
advertise because times are hard com
mits a very great mistake. Wher
times are hard and money scarce, the
man who has cash to pay looks out fol
bargains, and the best way to catch
him is to advertise cheap goods. II
you have bargains to offer this IL
the very time, above all others to lei
cash buyers know il. --Netoberry Ne,os.

A citizens meeting was held in De-
troit, last week and a committee of
fifteen selected to attend the G. A. r..
encampment at Milwaukee, and use
all honorable means to secure the next
annual encampment for Detroit. The
entire State should be interested in the
project and give the beautiful City OF
the Straits all aid possible toward sac
complaining the desired end. Cheboy-

I'VE have received official program OF
the Eleventh Annual Reunion of the
Soldiers and Sailors Association OF
Northern Miehisa., to be hold MT
West Branch, August 1915. The
program is good one, and as West
Branch is the finest town between Bay
City and Cheboygan, having liberal,
enterprising population, that will sure
ly exert itself to make things pleasant
for the soldiers, sailors, their sons and
the Womens' Relief Corps, all who
attend can count definitely upon hav-
ing a splendid time. West Branch is
very centrally located and the attend
ance promises to be very large. West
Branch Times.
Upon the real value and method of
newspaper-advcrtising an exchage SEN
sibly says: ''Some try advertising as
the Indian tried feathers, He took
one feather, laid it on board, and
silent mn 1t all hiaht In rho morning
he remarked: White man say feath-
ers heap soft; white man big fool. ;
Some business inen invest quarter or
fifty cents in advertising and then be-
cause they do not at once realize great
increase of business they declare that
advertising does not pay. A man
should not expect returns SO dispro-
portionRte to their investment. Even
a little advertising is doubles worth
all Il costs. but 25 cent local cannot
be expected to revolutionize business
and turn trade into unaccustomed
channels.
The preparations for entertaining
the veterans in August are being per-
fected rapidly. The soliciting com
mittees have done their work we'll and
the subscription list foots nearly $500.
This with donations of vegetables and
products by the farmers will be amply
sufficient TO entertain all the visitors
in first class style. The grounds are
yet to be prepared and grand stand
will be a necessity for the platform
exercises. The evening exercises each
evening will be held at the Opera
House. We believe West Branch will
prove fully equal to the occasion and
will welcome the veterans in grand
West Branch Times.
