That Richmond people should patro-
nize Richmond industries Is the prop
osition that just now the Chamber OF
Commerce. is advancing with deter
mined effort. 1t has been decided by
that body to conduct an aggressive
campaign, which Is to have as It's
object the persuading OF Richmond
people to buy all goods for, distribution
or consumption right here in the city,
II the quality. prices and conditions OF
the goods are equal to those which
could be obtained elsewhere II the
people of the city will do this the
Chamber of Commerce is OF opinion
that the best interests of every citizen
will be served by such action.
AS the first guns of this campaign.
letters are being written to all the
members of the Chamber of Commerce
by Business Manager Dabney. of that
organization. stating the purpose of
the movement and calling on the mem
bers for their moral support. In each
letter postal Is inclosed for reply.
Little need be said In favor OF such
campaign for patronage of Richmond
business concerns. for the arguments
In support are obvious. Much effort
has already been expended in securing
the patronage of non-resldents of the
industries and business houses OF Rich
mond. and II II Is desirable and worth
while to get the out-of-town trade,
1t is equally so In the case of those
who live here to have them buy at

10 the house together.
il seems that Parrish was first a

as his friend. Later, after supper, he

a few feminine tears. Parrish said he
would accompany her home. The man
was put through a lengthy interroga-

said that he was willing to marry the
runaway maid: AS the girl came here
of her own Wilton, and because the
police have no direct evidence, the man
was released.
EIoise was employed in department

as usual last Tuesday--that IS, osten-

came TO Richmond and to Parrish.
