always heard him with great deal
of pleasure not only because of his
rare humor but also because of his
deep insight into human life. His
rendering OF Pickett's charge at

of admission to the lecture, which in
this case will not be an additional
charge to the gate admission.

BOOST SAYS
Secretary of Board of Trade
to Alllnterested in
the City.

Senator A. X. Thorn, secretary of
the Board of Trade, when seen by the
Telegram this morning, talked inter-
estingly and helpfully on subject,
though old yet presenting; some ex-
cellent new ideas as discussed by the
general secretary. Senator Thorn
was asked TO give the newspaper rep
resentative something that would be
wholesome to the public in general
and he started by saying: Boost
your town; don't knock or try to
kill It,"
Continuing Senator Thorn said:
Why do you buy out of the city?
You say to save money-but do you?
Every dollar you put out of cfrcula-
ton here at home makes 1t just so
much harder for you to find another
+, dollar to take Its place. Is that saw
ing money?
Your home merchant extends you
credit, when you need it-and you
know how often that occurs and for
how long YOU hang him up'-but
when You do your cash buying you
send your money to some distant city
because some things on which the
regular price is advertised are sold
there few cents lower than the
price at home.
And the mail order house makes
up on something you do not know
about-or on the quality of the
goods.
When you buy of home mer-
chant and you And your purchase is
not up to standard. you can go to
him and have 1t out. Can you do
that when you make your purchase
outside of the city?
You may argue that you do not
sell your products in this city. Per-
haps YOU don't-but couldn't you do
so If the city was larger and In con-
sequence more prosperous? Do you
think this city will grow II you per-
sist in sending to an out of town
firm for goods for which you can
wait to have delivered?
IF the millions of people sending
their orders to the big mail order
houses would spend the same amount
of money In their own towns. these
towns would he growing Just as the
larger cities are growing. There
would be larger demand for mer-
chandlse, demand for larger force
of clerks to handle the increased
trade and a demand for houses for
the new clerks to live in.
There would be a larger demand
for farm products for them to live
upon. larger demand for the pro-
duce that the average farmer raises
and is willing to raise more of. IL
the demand makes 1t necessary. Think
it oer and see If your trade would
not be of some help toward bringing
about these new conditions"
