the value of the paper as an advertls-
ing medium for the outside world.
People considering change in location
almost invariably depend upon sample
copies of local papers in making their
choice. 1t is for this reason, more
than any ether, that the paper should
reflect the real spirit of the town.
Every business should be represented
in every issue by at least small ad,
which would serve as a sort of a bust
ness directory or guide to the prospec-
tive resident who eagerly reads every
detail which throws any light upon the
place he is considering as a location.
People naturally want to go where
there are hustling, progressive bust
ness men, and where they can have the
convenience of doing business with up
to-date local firms. Most of our mer-
chants are in this class, but there are
still few who need to learn the value
of the local paper as an advertising
medium.

CITY CLEANUP MEETING
TONIGHT

The committees appointed for the
various wards to manage the clean
up work next Wednesday are re-
quested to meet at the city hall at
8 O'Clock tonight, friday for the
purpose of planning the work. All
persons interested are invited to at
tend and aid the committee and it Is
hoped that offers of help and mater
ials will be so plentiful that the com,
mitteemen will not have to seek help
but will have only to direct the efforts
of workers so it will be applied to
good effect, AMI it is your part to
place your own forces at their lis.
posal for public good. If everybody
does that the work will be thorough
and gratifying.
Schools Should Aid
Pupils of the public schools should
remember that this will be an occa-
sion where they can show their an
probation of what they owe the com.
munity that maintains the fine school
system for them, and giving their SER
vices to the work of cleaning the town
is a plain duty of theirs. Counting
it holiday to watch the grown-ups
work is not what is expected of them.
