YOU'LL HAVE TO DONATE

The officials of the Greenwood
Base Ball Association have deferr-
ed the matter of soliciting sub
scriptions for the maintenance of
the club throughout the season as
long as they could wisely do SO,
and now it behooves them to get
busy and call upon the lovers of
the game in Greenwood to &C me
across" with a subscription in
proportion to their means.
The good that redounded to
Greenwood, from merely publ
city alone, was well worth the
amount subscribed by our citizen
ship last season. Greenwood was
made known to thousands OF
towns that had never known
that the hustling city on
the Yazoo was on the
map. Through the monoto-
nous months it provided splendid
amusement for an appreciative
constituency.
Now it behooves us TO put UP
stakes" for the 19h season. The
expenses this season will be re
duced owing to the fact that we
have our handsome park and
grand stand erected. But it is
incumbent upon us to assist in the
maintenance of our club. Cities
all over the circuit are responding
literally to the appeals of their
associations, and we must do like
wise.
We all want League ball, and
we have it, and have it in par ex-
cellence form. Ten of the
Champs" will again don the co
at the opening season, and we
must again back them up in then
endeavor to land another rag fol
Greenwood. We did we'll by ou1
team last season, our support en-.
abled them to land the pennant
All the officials can ask and dc
request is that we displaythe same
cooperation and interest in the
1911 club.
When the committee calls upor
you, don't strain yourself, but do
nate a sum in just proportion t
your means. Don't delay the mat
ter as it has been deferred tot
long already.

ABOUT YOUR ADVERTISING.

ABOUT YOUR ADVERTISING.
The principal reason for disap-
continents over the results of ad
yertising is the failure TO make it
like the rest Of the newspaper,
says the Clarksdale Register. Peo-
pie read the news colums to get
the news. They turn 10 the adj
yertising for precisely the same
reason. If the same article was
stuck in our news columsday af-
ter day; Il would attract few read
ers. Just as dispatches of a
newspaper reflect what is going
on in the world, so. the advertis-
ing should reflect what is going
on in the stores.
Things are happening every day
in our stores that keenly interest
the people. There are new lines
of goods, bargains on shop worn
or unreasonable stock. The pub
lie is anxious to know these
things, drawn by the keenest Of
all motives, the desire to save
money.
Tell them each week the news
Of your store, Mr.. Merchant, just
as definitely as the reporter tells
his story. Then the public will
read your news a great deal more
eagerly than it reads anything
else in any newspaper.
