PLEASED TO
SEE INTEREST
IN BONDS
BELIEVES issue WILL PASS
Captain Cobb FaVOrS I'm
prOVGmGntS

Il am glad to see the awakened in
terest in the forthcoming county bond
election" said Captain John A. Cobb
yesterday. "The more closely our peo-
pie look into the proposition, and the
more clearly they understand actual
conditions and the needs of the coun
ty on this line, the more inclined are
they to support the bond issue"
Every day more supporters for bonds
are declaring themselves, and with
the tide running strongly that way
there is every reason to hope that tn IS
much needed issue will be endorsed al
the polls on March 4th AS one good
reason, of many, given as to why the
bonds should be voted for the re-
building of bridges and culverts along
Sumter's roads, is the rapidly in
creasing cost of keeping up the pres
ent old and insecure bridges; struc-
lures that endanger life and limb, and
which cost the county a great sura
every year.
For instance, Sumter county paid
out for the past month of January
alone the sum of $692.5O for bridge
repairs and in the settlement of sew
eral claims for damages to mules and
teams that had fallen through the de-
cayed floors, or were otherwise injur-
ed. Nearly seven hundred dollars, a
sum in itself sufficient to build a pei
manent steel bridge of average dimen-
sion;s one that would last for many
years.
This amount, paid for January ac-
count alone in bridge repairing AMI
resultant damage suits, is about an
average monthly account against the
county This statement is official;
from the county records. In like pr1-
portion the county would pay out in
d year more than $4,000 for bridge re-
pairs and in the settlement of dam
age claims. Eight thousand dollars.
one years expense account, would
build quite a number of steel bridges
in Sumter county; bridges that would
remain intact a quarter century.
This is but one argument in favor O.
substituting the dangerous old wooden
bridges with more modern steel struc-
lures, such as will be built if the peo-
pie of Sumter county endorse the
bond measure on March 4th.

Are you using one hundred per cent
Of your advertising possibilities
We have explained how advertisers
may fail of the full measure of their
possible earnings, and handicap Their
growth by contenting themselves with
doing less than their full selling capac,
ity. And how others, by means of in.
telligent advertising, approximate the
one hundred per cent possible volumnC
of sales, with no increase in the

But how about the merchant who is
advertising, but who is not realizing
