RECORD MADE
 IN PHOENIX
Regular Sunday Issue of The Republican of Twen- ty-tWo Pages Contained 26,978 Lines of Advertis- ing Matter.

People who do not stop to think imagine that Phoenix is not d lively place in the summertime. That was so once, but is so no longer. Phoenix has changed in a great many re- spects. It is only necessary to turn to yesterdays issue of The Republi- can for proof of the fact that Phoenix is a very lively place. It is quite unlikely that there is another city of the same size in the United States. or for that matter, any city of twice the size, in which a twenty two page. Sunday morning newspaper, was is sued. The Republican has been get ting out such Sunday papers ever since the summer set in, falling down now and then, but not often to twenty pages.
 The issue of yesterday contained 26.97S lines of advertising That must be an indication of not only d good deal of commercial activity, but also of a great deal of confidence in The Republican as an advertising medium.
 The Republican contained also fifty two and one-half columns of tele- graphic, local and miscellaneous read ing matter and illustrations.
 Now, all this happened right in the middle of summer. This of course is by no means the largest issue of The Republican. for it puts out much larger ones in the fall, winter and spring. but it must be admitted that it is something of q record for the middle of J@ly, and as has been stat ed, no other paper in any town near the size of Phoenix made such a rec ord yesterday.
 This was made possible by The Republicans advantageous position. It enjoys the exclusive field It gets there with the news first and much more of it. It has the great advan- tage of being without competition Merchants understand this they know that in order to reach the people they must help swell the advertising col umns of The Republican.
 It must not be understood that this was a Sunday newspaper IS that term has come to be understood. No spe- cidl features were presented such as funny pages It was merely a bigger newspaper. necessarily made bigger by the contributions of advertisers and their contributions had to be matched with more reading matter.

SHOPPERS GET
EARLY START
Season for Christmas Buying Opens
in Earnest To-day Shops Take
on Holiday Appearance.
yUIErDE SPIRIT IN THE AIR


To-day will mark the real opening OF
the Christmas shopping season. There
remain only twenty days In which &c
lay in Christmas presents and the pub
lie seems to have realized this. sat
urday the buying in Washington stores
was brisker than usual. and to-day tnt
merchants are expecting lively trade
The sentiment, even at this early date
seems to be in favor Of early Christmas
shopping. The principal reason for thi'
is the vigorous campaign for early buy
ing that has been waged by the Retail
Merchants Association, the Consumers
League, and kindred organizations.
THANKSGIVING, the last holiday mile
post before Christmas. has passed, anc
the thoughts of everybody naturally turT
10 the Yuletide-and. of course, Its con
comitant shopping. Then. too, the frs
snow of the year. which appropriately
came on Thanksgiving Day. has faller
and given the necessary reminder tha
winter and Christmas are approaching
shops In Holiday Attire.
The shops have begun to take on a holi
day air. Christmas costumes of dec
grafton and extra fine displays of good
are seen on every hand. The display
is much more attractive this yea
than ever before. The merchants seen
to believe implicitly in the boasted pros
perity of the country. for they hav'
laid in an unusually extensive, as wei
as expensive, stock.
The managers OF the larger stores, anC
the smaller ones, also, expressed graft
fication Saturday night at the way thu
shoppers had turned out. 1t was a shop
ping throng that was looking not for th'
ordinary bargains, but for Christmai
gifts.
This. they say. is due largely to th'
work that has been done TO educate thi
public to early shopping. This work hal
been extensive, and II has kept man!
persons busy for the last two or thre'
weeks. Thousands of handbills and leaf
let's have been distributed, telling Of tn
benefits that early buying will bring I,
all concerned.
The campaign was started for the bene
fit OF the overworked salespeople who
instead of having a holiday at Christ
mas time. have to stand a siege of over
work greater than at any other time II
the year.
But the store people insist that. Will
early shopping is boon TO the arm,
of employees, II Is as beneficial to tn
rank and file of customers, as they no
only save themselves the wear and tea
OF the usual annual battle with Christ
mas Eve crowds. but they are able L
pick up the choice stock and make thei
purchases before the goods have bee
handled by the late shoppers.
