AUTO CARS STOPPED.

The automobile passenger line
which has been in operation between
Thurmont, this county, and Gettys-
burg, Pa. via Emmitsburg, since the
latter part of last June, has been dis
continued, and the line will probably
not be operated during the winter,
but may be put in operation again
next summer.
The Auto Car Company, which
operated the line, owns two large au-
tomobile, one of which was run be-
tween Thurmont and Emmitsburg
and the other between Emmitsburg
and Gettysburg. The late Mr.. Isaac
Amman, of Emmitsburg, was presi-
dent of the company and looked after
the operation of the car between En-
mitsburg and Gettysburg.
DR.. James X. Waters, of Thur
mont, treasurer OF the company, sad
that the discontinuance of the opera
ton of the line was partly due to the
death of Mr.. Amman. 1t was thought
best to stop running the cars, it was
stated, until the board of directors
could have meeting, and decide
whether the operation of the line
should be continued during the win
ter, as travel is not as heavy now as
it was during the summer. The COM
pany has found business pretty good
during the summer, DR.. Waters said
Mr.. John W. Feldman, of Hagers-
town, is vice-president of the COM
pany, and as soon as arrangements
can be made with him a meeting Of
the directors will be held.

TO EVANGELIZE WORLD.

The revelle calling the Christian
men of Baltimore to the battle for the
evangelization of the world was
sounded Tuesday night at the Fifth
Regiment Armory, Baltimore, by the
Laymen's Missionary Movement at a
banquet attended by $50 men of
all denominations, who broke bread
together and joined hands to spread
the Gospel of Christ to every part of
the world in this generation.
Too long, said the speakers, have
the women of the churches been the
gatherers of the funds and the arms
bearers in the war against the dark
ness of heathenism. Now it is the
mems turn to do mans work--each
of us is responsible for a.score of men
in some other part of the world who
know not Christ WAS the cry that
rang out in the armory, and its an
swer came back in the applause of the
men who heard it.
The call to arms which the layman
sounded has just begun to reverber-
ate throughout the country. 1t first
was heard in Buffalo, it was echoed
in Cleveland a week later, soon it
sounded in Richmond, Worcester,
Providence and Washington; Wash
ington heard it last week and until
Friday it will sound in Baltimore.
In year it will be heard in every
city in the United States. In two
years the towns will awaken to the
call before the men now interested
desist they say it will have reached
every corner of America.
Baltimore now sends about $74,-
6O3 yearly to the foreign mission
fields. Tuesday night Mr.. Joshua
lowering said that by Wednesday
or Thursday the churchmen of the
city will promise that next year there
will be $40, 600 subscribed and that
each year afterward the sum will in
crease.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER IS, 1909
Frederick Waking Up.

Elsewhere in these columns is re-
printed an article appearing in last
Saturdays Frederick Evening Ne'cs
headed buy In Frederick" The
Business Mems Association is waking
up to the fact that little greater in
diligence in printers ink would likely
prove profitable.
The move is primarily inspired by
the fact that the Baltimore merchants
are making a vigorous advertising
campaign in every paper within ra-
dius of 100 miles of Baltimore and by
personal letters sent out to each head
of a household. 1t is self evident
that this kind of advertising will bring
results, and it is plain to be seen that
Frederick merchants are feeling the
effects.
Every merchant, who wants to
lay claim to being up-to-date, cannot
be successful without advertising.
He must not only advertise once or
twice a year, but he must keep ever
lastingly at it. John Wanamaker,
that Prince of Merchants" of Phil
adelphia, is the best witness to tcs-
tify what judicious advertising will
bring. 1t is just as applicable in the
small town as in the large one.
Frederick merchants howl when
Baltimore gets after the trade-Thur-
mont merchants won't relish Fred
erick bidding for trade and the vii
lage merchants of Graceham, Catoc-
tin and elsewhere, will not look with
favor on Thurmont merchants offer
ing tempting inducements to the peo-
pie living in these communities in
which the stores are located. What
can be done? Advertise. If you
have anything to sell, tell the people
about it. Printers ink is the cheap
est stuff you can buy. Buy it liber-
ally and you will get the greatest re-
turn on your investment.
We have progressive merchants in
Thurmont who persistently advertise,
others occasionally do so and some
have line or two in the paper about
Christmas, while others never adver-
tise. 1t is true, that it concerns no
one but the business man himself,
yet if the newspaper accepts other
advertisements, criticism flows pretty
freely from those who are entitled to
the least consideration.
So far as the CLARION is concerned,
we say, keep your money home if you
can get what you want, and only send
it away when your home merchant
has not got what you want and can
not get it for you.
1t must be remembered that there
are individuals in every community
who would not deal with the local
merchant even if they could get the
same thing as they buy in the city.
They are the exception and not the
rule.

Weather Favorable For Work

The work on the dam across Hunting
Creek is progressing very nicely. Con-
siderable sand and stone had to be NOV
ed in order to secure a solid foundation
on which to build. On Monday solid rock
bottom was struck at places and it is
hoped this will continue the whole dist
ance across the ravine. Work continues
on the ditch for the pipe line. Many
large stone are encountered in digging
but these are gotten out of the way by
various means. Twenty-seven men were
working on the job Tuesday.

"BUY IN FREDERICK"
'BU 7 IN FKEDEKICN.
This to be Slogan of Local Advertising
Campaign.

d. xN CNLDLh1SNs
This to be Slogan Of Local Advertising
Campaign.
A vigorous campaign of advertising for
the purpose of spreading knowledge of
Frederick's numerous advantages as a
place for shopping was determined upon
at meeting of the Business Mems Asso-
citation last night. 1t was decided to go
into this campaign as means of Offset
ting schemes for drawing trade from
Frederick city and county to other cities,
through the mail-order form of business,
and in other ways.
1t was asserted at the meeting that
prices for merchandise in Frederick were
far below prices on similar goods in larger
cities as rule, and that in fair compe-
tition Frederick merchants had nothing
to fear from comparison of prices and
values, while the accommodations offer
ed, in the extent and variety of stocks,
and in every other respect, would bear
comparison equally as we'll. One mer-
chant declaaed that he knew that some
merchandise in Frederick was priced
fifty per cent. below the prices upon
merchandise of the same kind and grade
in Baltimore stores. 1t was agreed that
if the people of Frederick and the sur
rounding country and nearby towns
could be made fully aware of the econ
omy and advantage of trading here there
would be little loss to the city through
the sending of money away for the pur-
cha Sc of goods which should be purchased
here.
1t was also agreed that the interests
of the city demanded that trading away
from home should be discouraged. 1t
was pointed out that money spent at
home stores was kept in circulation in
the community to the profit of many in
dividuals and to the benefit of the city
in many ways, while money sent or car
ried away for purchases in the stores Of
other cities went to the upbuilding OF
those cities. These facts, it was agreed,
should be impressed upon the people of
the community, and this will be one of
the objects of the advertising campaign
which was decided upon at the meeting.
1t was determined to raise fund to pay
for this campaign, and a committee was
appointed to secure contributions. A
number of contributions were pledged at
once, and business men who were not
present at the meeting will be called upor
to contribute.
The advertising committee, of which
Mr.. c. Thomas Kemp is chairman, was
authorized to go ahead with the campaign
Immediately. Buy In Frederick will
be the slogan of the campaign, and it is
planned to cover not only Frederick
county but adjoining sections of other
counties with the advertising.
With a view of combating any efforts
in the future of merchants of other cit
les to enter the fields of the towns OF
Western Maryland with what is consid-
cred unfair competition, it was deter
mined to get into touch with the mer-
chants of other towns in Western Mary
land and try to devise "a plan for con-
certed action towards this end, and the
president of the association was author
lzed to name committee for this pur-
pose. Saturday Frederick News.
