WHAT TRADE BODIES ACCOMPLISH
when CITIES SUPPORT THEM
RESULTS AT HOUSTON, TEXAS WERE
WONDERFUL--.EQUALLY GOOD RE-
SUITS TO BE OBTAINED HERE.

The Houston (TeXas) Chamber Of
Commerce on October /, 1910, appro-
priated $4,000 to conduct national
advertising campaign for the city Of
Houston and the surrounding terri
tory. The campaign was opened With
a full-page advertisement in the Sat
urday Evening Post which cost $4,000
for the one insertion. Later the field
was changed by taking space in Les
lies, Success Magazine, Golfers and
other periodicals of national and
world wide circulation.
In seven months over 10000 inquir-
les for information concerning Hous-
ton came into the Chamber of Com
merce as a direct result of this ad-
vertising campaign. Results follow
ing first insertion in each periodical
swamped the office of the chamber,
necessitating an increase in the office
force to take care of the correspon-
dence and publicity and in these sew
en- months over $4,000 pieces of litera-
tUre were mailed to the correspon-
dents, in every case each piece deal
ing directly with the subject contain
ed in the letter queries.
The great work of the Houston
Chamber of Commerce is due directly
to the solid support accorded the Of
ficers by the 10000 leading business
men of Houston who comprise the
membership of the organization, The
chamber links together every promi-
nent man and association into one
movement for the upbuilding and ex-
pansion of the city, and the results
of this progressive sentiment are APP
parent in every section of the city
and reflects greatly in the building.
Now why cannot the business men
of Americas take advantage of excel
lent results that have been accom-
phshed by Houston, due to their
solid support" and progressive SEN
Itiment' accorded the Houston Cham
Der of Commerce. We cannot hope
to go at this work on as large a scale
as Houston; but we can go at it on
Ia proportionate scale and accomplish
Ithings-big things. With the solid
support of 200 members, imbued with
a progressive sentiment and love of
their home community, the Americas
Board of Trade could bring abouN
wonderful results in the growth and
expansion of Americas. Nothing can
be accomplished without linking to-
gether" every business man and or
ganization in Americas with one par
amount idea, and that idea to be
progress. Join the Board of Trade
and give it your active and solid
support and you will see results-see
Americas blossom into the CONNER
cial city of the Southwest Georgia.

STILL HELD IN BASTILE
Her fine NOT PAID
This Prisoner Is a Problem
Hard to Solve

The city of Americas seems to have
acquired an elephant. figuratively
speaking, in a white female prisoner
held at the barracks for non-payment
of fine of $50 imposed by Mayor
Mathis. The woman halls from Biz
mingham, and was requested to leave
one of the hotels here for alleged mis-
conduct, and subsequently was locked
up. Next morning Mayor Mathis inn
posed fine of $50, which, by the way
had not been paid yesterday, and as he
does not care to keep her locked up
during the sixty days sentence in
lieu of fine, the police department is in
a quandry as to what disposition to
make of her The woman has been
here before, and it may be that her
case will be transferred to the state
courts, where she would be tried upon
the charge growing out of the hotel
affair.
