The Advertiser today enters upon
Volume 70. For II long years it has
faithfully recorded the events of the
community and INCREASINGLY worked
for its upbuilding and progressive de
velopment in all lines. 1t has been q
faithful mirror of the growth of the
city and the fact that it now possesses
one of the best and most modernly
equipped printing plants in the state
evidences that it has kept fully abreast
with the times and the general prog.
ress of the community. While one of
the Oldest papers in the state it, like
wine, has constantly improved with
age The people of Lexington and
Holmes county have literally accorded
it their patronage and support tor
which we feel deeply grateful and hope
for continuance of same in the flu
tura

Last month we offered to all Locals
in arrears with their dues to be rein
stated by the payment of their dues
for the present quarter.
All Locals in arrears may be rein
stated by this payment for the pres
ent quarter.
Locals in good standing which have
delinquent members may reinstate
such members by collecting the dues
from such members for this one quar-
ter of unpaid dues, and each paid up
member thus reinstated will receive
our splendid paper free.
Thousands of delinquent members
have taken advantage of the SPECIAL
DISPENSATlON made last month ;
but in order that they may all take ad.
vantage of this unprecedented offer,
we have extended the same until the
1st of July.
The Union is now taking on new
life in this state, and the membership,
new members and old members return.
ing, has been increasing at the rate of
nearly 100 per day. All local and
county papers are requested to publish
this notice, that large number of de-
linquent members who have not heard
of the special DIsPENsATION made
last month NAV have the opportunity
of taking advantage of it during the
next thirty days.

The transatlantic traveller now has
his daily paper aboard ship, with a
summary of the worlds news, stock
market quotations and the latest sport,
ing.gossip. 1t is known as the Atlant-
ic Daily News, appears on twenty sew
en- boats of the Hamburg American,
French and the Holland America lines
and is conducted and edited by the
allied Marconi companies. This unique
publication is really newspaper in
magazine form and is partly printed
on shore. Each of the twenty seven
boats is equipped with a miniature
newspaper plant, from editor to print
ing presses, which prepares and prints
the news received by wireless and the
principal happenings on the ship itself
and binds this in with the sections
printed ashore,

A local newspaper is absolutely ne
cessary to any community. 1t is the
home paper that keeps the people of
the community In touch with each
other by giving them all the news OF
their own neighborhood and county.
For that alone they are of value and
worth far more than the small sub
scription price. They keep the local
pride and progressive spirit aroused
and IN various ways are worth far
more to community than commu-
nifty ever spends on them. The daily
paper, with its large news service and
quicker facilities may in some in
stanes overshadow the weekly, but the
weekly home paper fills a place in the
hearts of the people that daily can
not fill. 1t comes to your home as an
old tried friend.

perfume at this time when public
schools Gloss and graduates and others
are naturally turning this way and
that seeking the various paths to q
life's avocation and success. The GO
ing OF the young men and women to
the cities and larger towns, with the
hope of getting suitable employ ment
and the thought of having a better
time, should be discouraged The
cities have three applicants fol every
single position and there are many
who are faring worse in their new
position. than they did when at home.
The city is net the place to make an
easy living In fact it is the most
difficult place known for the average
Young man to get start in life in the
sense of holding q position after once
gained. The smaller towns offer better
inducement and the country districts
are more helpful to the betterment OF
the social and moral conditions, and,
the financial part is by far better in
the country, when all conditions are
considered. The city has more of its
own than it usually has power to care
for and control If you ale thinking
of employment in any large center, DO
sure to gain the situation before You
deccIde entirely to quit the old home.
There are many who meet sad disap-
pointment in the crowded districts and
those who are in measure successful
are lost in the crowd. IL the young
man has q home and is doing fairly
we'll it is to his interest TO remain
there. The city is full of allurements
and slippery places and it has many
failures. The young men have a
place to fill in the county and coun-
try position, as rule, is more con
ducive to the growth of character and
fitness.
The Lexington advertiser., 1909-05-14

To build up town the Hampstead
Tex News points out that there
''can be found no better way than by
giving our business men our entire and
exclusive patronage. The, more we
help each other the more we help the
town You should not make your
money from home people and then
send it to foreign concerns for things
that can be bought at home. Some
people say they do not keep what they
want here, we believe that is because
they never inquire or it. We think our
business men try to carry as near as
possible everything needed in first
class store. Trade with thCm--you
will save by it,
