AT York, Pa, church benevolent
funds are being largely raised by women,
who require all the neighbors that drop
in to use their telephones to deposit
small sums in cash in boxes beside the
phones, in lieu of the usual "thank you"
for the courtesy. Good idea, and why
not also establish a small weekly stipend
to be paid by those who do not take
newspaper but depend on their neigh
boris courtesy for their reading matter

The 18th of this month, which hap
pens next Friday, opens the festive trout
ing season, not so festive, really, as it
once was, to be sure, but still looked for
ton by the "angling crank" Up to this
time there has been no day that stream
in this latitude could be fished with rea-
sonable hope of success, and sc there
ought to be some show for the fellow who
has fairly decent respect for the law,
afiording him at least an even chance
with the wretch who is forever and eter-
nally snerkng out days and weeks bofore
the season opens. All get ready.
Stores that describe their ools in the
newspaper make sales quicke than those
that do not advertise. People go to the
advertised stores with the impression of
the goods so thoroughly stamped in their
minds that they know just what they
want, what it costs and all about it. If
they go to the stores at all that do not ad- |
vertise, they have the clerk take down |
everything upon the shelyes and tell |
them all about it, taking two or three |
times as much time. Advertising is the
greatest help the salesman has. Adver-
tising placed in the REPUBLICAN goes to
tie buying class when they have plenty |
of time to read it.
