The Ashdown Saturday crowds of shoppers are larger than common this year. This is probably due to the improved shopping facilities offered here, for scarcely, if ever, have the various lines been more com- plete and varied, and possibly never have our merchants made a more aggressive cam paign for business. The pres ent issue is a sample of the live advertising that we have run throughout December. We see new faces in town from sect ions that have done their shop ping elsewhere. Our town now is in better position to enter a campaign for a wider trade territory than ever before. In- ducements are the trade expan- ders and our merchants are there with the inducements.
