Hot Weather
Publ. ~

Some merchants, in ordss to
curtail expenses during th,. hot
season of the year, hegln by
cutting down their advert ing
expenses. The newspaper is
at all times your weapon and
best medium of publicity, and
when times are dullest ard
competition keenest your adj
vsrtising appropriation should
be increased to meet these con-
ditions.
Advertising is not discontin-
ued or decreased because busi-
ness is dull, but business is dull
because you are not advertis-
ing as much as you should.
Do not throw away your best
weapons when the hardest bat
tie remains to be fought. Do
not discontinue or decrease
your advertising when the hot
weather comes. At no time of
the year will advertising space
do you better service than right
now-if you advertise right.
Investigate circulation claims
of the papers you advertise in,
and make sure that for the
amount of money you are
spending you are reaching the
greatest possible number of
people, and then advertise per-
sistentlyyand judiciously, and
solicit business through the
columns of live newspapers as
though you really wanted the
business, and results will be
certain.

Rally Day

Sunday was Orally Day" at
the Christian church in this
city, and the building was
crowded from door to pulpit
with members and friends.
Rev. B. H. Winston, pastor,
preached a very able and inter-
estlng sermon on the subject of
"a Forward Movement" and
after the close of the services,
automobile, buggies and car
riages were provided and the
congregation generally took the
direction OF the City Park,
where it had been arranged to
have a picnic dinner, which ar
rangement Was fully carried
out, and a most delicious spread
was served, to which all took a
part. The ladies had made am
pie arrangements to feed a
large number of visitors, as
we'll as the members of the
church, and so abundant was
grub" that a sufficient amount
was left after all had been
served, and as many more
could have been served. 10
undertake to describe the dim
ner is impossible, suffice it to
say, it contained a variety of
eatables such as fried chicken,
sandwiches, vegetables, pie, of
various kinds; pickles, cake,
bread and butter, cold coffee,
tea and pure, sparkling water.
1t was feast worthy of q king
and established the fact tbas
our ladies are the very best
providers in the country.
After all had partaken of the
dinner, Rev. Winston gave a
little talk, and several others
being called on for a few re-
marks, which were responded
to by short talks, and then the
audience was dismissed and
LETT for their homes, feeling
hai py and "glad they were
there"
Such meetings are beneficial,
not only in a religious point of
view, but as a promoter of socia-
bility and friendship, and
should be cultivated and en-
couraged.

his kindness in conveying us,
