IRRESPONSIBLE AelTAToRs.

A sane review Into the past of Hot Springs is proof positive that much pf the tnrinon and the conflict of n period unpleasant to recall, was the result of agiiatlon from irreaponsi- htes.
 There was the y-by-night who has ideas and theories and loud pice. and they were all used until
 readbare. There ware writers who gitafed for temporary fish head b appease a temporary hunger, and hey too are absent now.
 Behind this all Is lesson. Today Hot Springs stands in an enviable position in this section of the coun y. The people are together and Ee working for their own advance n nt and for the building up of their ely on broad and liberal basis.
 Any movement to give recognition to Irresponsible agitators win be submerged in public indignation. The people of Hot Springs are for boost CTS nowno looking for agitators. The whole community has but to re- ifrrt fuT Il moment to view the work of the agitntor. and the community wants no more of his ilk.

lic-spirited citizens of Honesdale or
Texas township.
The Board of Trade has voluntar-
lily received applications for mem
bership from reputable citizens of
the town, who if put into the har-
ness would accomplish results.
These are the kind of men the
Board of Trade want. The recent
action taken in town matters has
created a sentiment for the better
ment or improvement of local con-
ditions and the board is being high
ly commended for what is being
done and what has been accom-
plished.
The method or system of secur-
ing new members has not been full
ly determined. 1t has been sug-
gested that the present board men,
bers be equally divided, either into
numbers, uptowners and downtown
ers, or the blue and red, each side
choosing a color, and that prizes be
awarded to the successful contest
ants.
Every citizen of Honesdale should
belong, to the board of trade. 1t is
here that you have decided to earn
your living. Your business is here
and where that is your interests are
centered. If the town can secure
more industries of varied nature,
so much the better for you and the
place in general. What helps your
business helps the town and what
helps the town helps better condi-
tions at large. You can help make
these conditions better by support
ing the Greater Honesdale Board of
Trade.
The times in Honesdale are grow
ing better every day. If this were
not so why would it's stores be
crowded to overflowing the evenings
they are open during the week?
Why are the amusement houses so
largely patronized every night of the
week and what occasion would
commercial statesmen have to say
things were better here if they were
not selling goods?
Help make these times still bet
ter by joining the Board of Trade
and place Honesdale on the map.
The larger the membership the
stronger and more influential the
board will be. Greater and more
probable things can then be accom-
plished
The membership committee of the
board of trade consists of William
Katz, C. T. Bentley, John Erik, J.
b. Nielsen, p. II. Pohle, J. A. Robin
son, and e. B. Galloway.
