What Advertising Can Do.

Says an advertising expert; 81 have
known several cases where a business
has, in the course of time, been poked
away or left stranded in a street remote
from the active centre, and where news
paper advertising has restored the con-
ceru to its former prominence. The
proprietor has been able, by advertising,
to convince prospective buyers, at their
homes or on the trolley or train, that it
would be to their benefit TO go to this
OBSCURE street to buy things. News
paper publicity has robbed prominence
of location of most of its advantages. F"

A Union Service.


On Sunday evening last all of
the resident pastors and their cna-
gregations united in a welcome
service in the sr,Methodist church.
After very earnest and appropri-
ate sermon by Rev. It. P. Burgess
a cordial welcome was extended to
Rev. Marvin Auld, the newly in
stalled Methodist pastor, who ex-
pressed his grateful appreciation
for The manner in which he has
been received in Edgefeld. It
has caused general rejoicing that
the pastors of the Methodist, Pres
bytcrian and Baptist churches
have decided to hold these union
services on every fourth Sunday
evening. We trust and believe
that the coming together of the
Christian people of the commuui-
ty for the purpose of worshipping
their common God will draw Them
nearer together and strengthen the
bonds of sympathy and Christian
fellowship. The next union SER
vice will be held in the Presby-
terian church IN the fourth Sun
day evening in February, at which
Rev. c. E. Butts will preach.
