In many places it seems to be nee
essary to advertise building associ-
ations and to keep high salaried of
ficials always at work booming
them. 1t is not so in Morgantown.
Here we have associations with all
the stock the officers care to take
the responsibility of handling. Our
building associations have been re-
mark&ble business successes.
IT is constant advertising that pro-
duces an effect, although tue spas

ly Influenced by the example which
is perpetuslly before him. Many
people protest that it is unnecessary
to continue the advertising of well
known articles. They cannot un-
dcrstand why it is continued. They
declare it does not influence them,
but the manufacturers know better.
The man who denies that he is in
fluenced by advertising constantly

very protest is proof of it.

navigable to Fairmont. w. Va, q

town. To do this work he estimated
that it would cost $l.25O,O00. He
said there are some wonderful re
sources up in that country to be de
veloped, and it could only be done
by the slack water system. His visit
here was to get necessary tools and
machinery to complete the repairs
being made to Dam No. 9.-Chron-

THERE is no less money in the
country than ever. Then why the
scarcity Of currency, this general
distfust, and the boarding Of money!
The subject is too large to discuss
here, but certainly no one distrusts
the goodness of our currency or coins
or they would not be boarding them.
The boarding Of money is great
mistake for it intensifies the very evil
we complain of, by Withdrawing mon
ey from the banks and general circu-
lation, thus increasing the scarcity
Of ready money. Like the panic of
u mob, no one reasons for himself, but
each blindly follows the crowd. Let
us change all this. Have courage.
Believe in ourselves, in each other
and in our banks, which were never
in better condition. Already the
common sense Of the people is re-as-
sorting Itself, confidence is returning,
buying and selling are still going on.
The people must still be fed, clothed,
warmed and housed, and the Victor
Mills Co. will still furnish you the

bran and chop at the lowest prices
