More Trade to Birmingham and from
Secretary Chaffee's letter We quote the
following extracts:
Our league is conducting a very ag-.
gresstve campaign of advertising to at
tract out-of-town trade. Our work in
this direction Is being covered by display
ads appearing regularly in three local
papers, a large number of out-of-town
papers, large number of 10x12 sign
boards along the railroads leading to
this city, by billposting, leaflets, booklets,
stickers, etc. In other words we are
going out after trade in just the same
way that any business house would go
after it ana we are glad to say we are
getting It for the retail merchants of
this city
THE full page newspaper advertise
ment before us is an appeal headed TO
Out-of-Town Shoppers-Thank You-Wish
You a Merry Christmas and A Happy
New Year Then follows a discussion
of the superior facilities of Birmingham
as shopping center, a review of ths
preparations made for out-of-town trade
and a list of Convincing Reasons Why
You Should Trade in Birmingham To
this Introductory talk is appended list
of names including merchants and trades
men engaged In some so different lines
all Of whom are cooperating In the
work OF the league The idea Is thor
oughly practical and commendable one
and wherever 1t might be attempted
would surely succeed II carried out along
lines of axxressiveness similar to those
adopted by the Birmingham Organise

| On the other hand Inquiries among
insurgents failed to disclose any appar-

| House insurgents held this year, declared
/ that he was 'in the fight to stay. II no

| do it," he said And II there are others
| who are backward in this battle I will
| go It alone. I am an insurgent until II
