The Bennington evening banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 19??-1961, 1910-06-15

It was entirely surprising to be told
through news dispatches that the
Massachusetts officers had given up"
their search. for the Monroe Bridge
murderer Perhaps that was one of
their subterfuges to bring the crimi-
nal out of his lair supposing, of
course, that he had his daily news
paper delivered at the entrance of
his cave and was, therefore, thorough
ly conversant with the movement of
the pursuit Barre Times.
1t has since developed that the
news dispatches stating that the
search for the murderer of the Massa-
chusetts sheriff had been abandoned
were not only surprising fbut consider
ably incorrect. On the day that the
Information" was published in many
newspapers a militia company was
securing the mountain where the
wanted man is supposed to be in hid
ing.

BELIEVE in ADVERTISING.

Gerhard Brothers believe in
good service and in good ads.
And they believe lin advertising
and in its value as a business pro-
3ducer in the degree that some time
and effort is devoted to this phase
Of their business. If q merchant
believes in advertising and then
does not advertise he is either not
merchant Or iswell we don't
know what.bu to actually believe
in advertising and then pay no
attention to sit in to stand in the
waysof yonr own progress.
Gerhard Brothers have just end
ed their first year in the grocery
business and have in that year
done over $50. 900. This has been
done thru clean advertising clean
service, clean treatment, clean
goods, clean windows. clean ahaw
cases and clean prices. The one
word CLEAN best expresses the
entire atmosphere Of this store.
This store has avoided bad ac-
counts. Bad accounts are easily
obtained tt is not q sign ofbusi.
ness ability Of principle to have
accounts with people who do not
propose to pay their bills. A good
store has good customers who val
