HELP YOUR TOWN

One OF the best ways to help your
town is to do your trading at home.
Patronize your home merchants. II
they succeed the chances are you will
succeed. When you send dollar to
a mail order house you have the
goods and they have the money
and you will never see it again. By
trading with your home merchant
the money is kept at home and you
will eventually get some OF it back.

The term printers devil ss applied
to the boy who does the choring ground
printing office has peculiar romatic
history. In early days printing was
styled the "black art" and printers
were supposed TO be in league with
Satan. But it was in the time of Aldus
Minutius in Venice that the matter took
q serious turn. This was the famous
printer who iirst published the Greek
and Roman classics. He took into his
employ negro boy who was home less
on the streets Of Venice. The people
supposed the boy was an imp from
Satan and that he assisted in printing.
Mobs collected about the Office and
were about to wreck it, when the boy
was brought forward and exhibited
showed that the boy was flesh and
blood, but he was still called the
"printer's devil" and every boy in his
position ever since has been SO called.
