~ never realized BEFORE" said a
friend of the REGISTER the other day,
what an advantage 1t is to town to
have a newspaper that has a good
reputation among other newspapers.
| have been in newspaper offices
enough to know that as general rule
not one half of the papers that come
to the exchange table are even OPEN
ed. But it is very evident from the
the quotations from it and the COM
ments upon what is going on at lola
that the REGISTER doesn't belong to
the half that go unnOticed into the
waste basket. There is no doubt that
lola is the best advertised town in
Kansas right now, and it is due more
than anything else to the fact that
other editors read the REGISTER
Such words of encouragement help to
smooth over a good many rough
places.
Don't get crazy. We know of man
who put two vacant lots in the hands
of a real estate agent for sale at $50
for the two. Within q week the agent
got an offer of that sum and took it to
the owner who refused it, saying the
lots were worth $500. The next week
he raised the price to $3.50 and now he
holds the lots at $3.50. We know
another case of strangers who casu-
, ally inquired of a citizen what a GER
tain vacant lot was worth. And
: the enthusiastic citizen, with the best
. intentions in the world, told him it
would bring $500 or $40. Well the
= stranger happened to be the owner of
the lot and now he thinks one of our
real estate agents is trying to rob him
because he wants him to sell it for
; 500 which is every cent it is worth.
} The moral of which is that we ought
to have some sense about these things.
J When we are offered fair price for
: property which we want to sell by
