Governor Bass believes it is not enough
for state to appreciate its resources ana
advantages he thinks they should be made
known to the outside world. Therefore,
he has named Monday Nov. p, as Adver-
Using Day for New Hampshire, and advises
united action at that time in effectively
putting before the country an inventory
of the states attractions, He suggests
that the newspapers publish, prior to the
nth, articles on the resources OF Their
particular localities and that the people
devote at least part of the day TO sending
these papers, together with other adver-
Using matter, to their acquaintance out
side the state. If the governors plan Is
adopted generally New Hampshire VIII

Isn't it fact that when the average
man reads that some town is to hold a
conference to consider questions OF vital
interest to its moral and social welfare
he wonders what particular form of vice
has found foothold in that community:
These improvement campaigns seldom fan
to accomplish good, but the method OF
advertising them is frequently i'll chosen.

AN OPPORTUNITY.

The Greenfield board of trade has taken
-, the question of the cost OF lNng IN
that town as compared to other places oil
similar size. and a special committee mas
been appointed to investigate and report
LATER Doesn't this announcement suggest
q, ,,ov in which the local board Of trade
can be of practical assistance to every
resident of Brattleboro? We frequently
hear the statement that it costs more TO
live here than in other towns the size OF
ours. but the assertion cannot be authofl'
tatiyely denied or affirmed for the reason
that no statistics on the subject are avail
able On that account the complaints OF
those who think they are being charged
unduly for the necessities of life are al
lowed to 90 unchallenged, and Brattlehoro
receives the name of being place OF hlSu
prices when there is no proof that sneh
an appellation is deserved, An investlsa'
ton of this kind could do no harm how
ever it came out. If it should show that
tbe cost of living in Brattleboro is above
that in other towns whose inhabitants en-.
low equal advantages, the knowledge would
show MS the need of solving an important
civic problem. On the other hand, II 1t
should reveal living cost as low or lower
than the average we would be IN pos
session of an extremely valuable argument
in our favor. Why don't the Greenfield
and Brattleboro boards OF trade attack tins
question jointly? The investigations "i
each would be of value to tile other.
