 Tenants of Business Property

more effectively to customers1 and the quietude will contriP bute to the receptiyeness of thd| customer s mind. Quicker and more satisfactory sales will fol- low.
 In addition to all of the fore going, your place of business will never be blocked nor iso lated by prolonged pavement repairs. The repair of Creo1 soted Yellow Pine Block Pave ment is seldom necessary years frequently lapse before it is required to replace even al minute portion, and then the re- pairing is done in a few min utes.
 Now, to the merchant, wheth- CT retailer or jobber, and to all other tenants whose business involves heavy haulage, we say that Creosoted Yellow Pine Block Pavement will material ly reduce the cost of your haul age. While offering the least, resistance to traction, 1t affords. sufficient foothold to horses and Is so resilient it will not in jure the legs and hoofs of your draft animals. On the other hand, if you use automobile trucks, your expensive tires will last longer on this pave ment, as there is no coarse, material to grind them, nor any slivers or sharp edges to pune ture them.
 In conclusion, we are safe in saying there is no tenant Of business property who will not be benefited by helping his landlord to get Creosoted Yel- low Pine Block Pavement. In line with this,. we shall make our next talk to the office ten- ant. It will appear in day or two-watch for it.

 The orator of the day was A. Latady His theme was: The Life and Character of Jefferson Davis" The eloquent and gifted speaker did full justice to his theme. He spoke of the eventful lives of the makers of history and stated that in the life of the president of the Con- federacy had been crowned several epochs in the history of the country. MT Latady reviewed the life and character of Presi- dent Davis. showing his magnificent courage, splendid statesmanship. un- swerving loyalty, and steadfast devotion. In the trying times preceding and dur Ing the great conflict between the states
 The speaker referred to the criticisms often unjust-that had been made from time to time in the endeavor to bescmireh his name, but from each attack he had risen to a higher plane in the estimation of his people.
 At the conclusion of his splendid and inspiring address MT. Latady was the recipient of many heartfelt thanks from those in attendance.

Conclusive Reasons T h a t
 Should Impel Them to Join
 Their Landlords Tn Insisting
 That Creosoted Yellow Pine
 Block Pavement Be Laid In
 Front of Their Places of
 Business
 Creosoted Yellow Pine Block pavement will bring you more business, and enable you to handle the increased business at less expense.
 This is a strong statement, but it is sustained by the ex- perience of merchants and other business men in all cities where Creosoted Yellow Pine Block pavement has been prop erly laid.
 The smooth, inviting surface of this pavement attracts ve- hicles, and they, in turn, draw pedestrian travel. It is human to follow the line of least re- sistance, and it is human to go with the crowd. That is the logical reason why many "dead" streets take on a new ness of life when relaid with Creosoted Yellow Pine Block Pavement, and why streets that were always ''live" increase notably in popularity as thoroughfares when this mod ern pavement is theirs.
 Consequently, a larger trade and a better class of trade is what you can reasonably ex- pect, MT. Merchant, as the re- suit of Creosoted Yellow Pine Blocks in front of your store.
 And that is not all. You can do business more satisfactorily. This clean pavement does not generate dust. You can display your goods-especially your delicate fabrics-more freely, and thus increase the selling power of your establishment.
 This "silent pavement" will also enable your clerks to talk
