opened to the use Of the general

SCHEME TO ADVERTISE THE CITY
WITH HUGE BILLBOARD AT
UNION PACIFIC HOTEL.
Vacant Lot Across the Tracks sus.
sested for signs Setting Forth
Some of Advantages Of Laramie as
Homo for Observation-Disclosures
for Clubs Consideration.

A method Of advertising the city
adopted in some places in the east
could be applied here with telling eff
feet, as there is a broad expanse OF
vacant land across the railroad tracks
from the Union Pacific hotel that
would be within the line of vision of
every passenger gong through here by
daylight. 1t has been suggested that
the Laramie Commercial club have
large signs placed in the vacant lots
opposite the hotel, bearing something
like the following:

Great Good Would Result.
1t is probable that the Union Pa
cific would gladly give place to such
a sign and the good it would do would
be almost incalculable. One difficulty
with the advertising of the matchless
resources Of the city and community
is the getting of the advertising before
the public. In this way thousands and
thousands of hOmeseekerS cOuld be
reached and the impression thus gain
ed would often bear fruit. 1t is worth
the consideration Of the Commercial
club to say the least.
