MORE ABOUT OPENING
OF VINE STREET

In our issue of last Friday we
advocated the widening of Vine
Street. We also stated that the
Board of Public Works has offered
Mr.. Bogoger $500. In an interview
with Mr.. Bogoger we learn that he
asks $4,000. provided that the offer is
accepted at once and he is not COM
PEELED TO litigate for what he claims
are his rights. He tells US that there
are lot of items of EXP ense that go
into the moving and re-adjusting
of the buildings, such as the cost of
moving and tearing down the build
ings, rebuilding of parts of building,
and repairing damage, re-plastering,
re-papering and re-painting, expense
for new sewer, paving, plumbing ex-
cavations and foundations. Besides
there is expense of moving all the
goods in the store and b e
damage to the business while moving.
Local contractors have estimated
these items for him and he says that
they run up to nearly $4,000. This
sum does not include the strip of land
20 fit. wide and 240 it. long asked by
the city. This strip extends from End
to 3rd street. Taking off 20 it. off Srd
street leaves the balance of the lot
only 80 TT wide and fit neither for

ADVERTISING CHAT

The merchant who tries to save
money by stopping his advertising for
a time is like the engineer who tries
to effect saving in coal by letting
his fires go unfed. Each may attain
his object in time but will find no
saving in the end, An engine under
a full head of steam will not stop
running at once if no more fuel be
furnished to the fire, A tiourishing
business will feel the impetus of good
long after it has been dis
continued, But the engine viii stop
after a while, and it will then require
a greater expenditure of fuel to re-
store it to its lost power than would
have kept it running continuously.
A business that has had its advertis-
ing impulse withdrawn may not stop
entirely, but it will soon begin to
lose the force it gained by publicity.
After time the force will cease to
be felt, and it will then take more ad-
sertising to bring the business back
to it's former condition than would
have kept it growing and prospecting
if there had been no break in the con-
tinuity.
