PLAN NTOUSE AUTOS IN
TRADE BOOSTING RUNS
Merchants Arranging for Advertis-
ing Trips to Nearby Cities
and Towns.

The great development of the auto
mobile as means of carriage for per-
sons and merchandise and the marked
improvement in highways have not
alone given a great deal of pleasure to
thousands of people. but are destined to
be the means of developing trade for
the aNtional Capital. according to the
plans of the Retail Merchants Associa-
tion.
Announcement was made recently by
Secretary Columbus that arrangements
are on foot for series of trade boost
ing runs to nearby cities and towns,
the first one OF take place in June over
a route to be selected and referred to
the board of governors of the Retail
Merchants Association for approval at
its May meeting 1t is planned to make
the trips the mediums of splendid ad
vertising for Washington.
Results From River Trip.
Practical results have already been
noted from the river boosting trip of
the Retail Merchants Association.
Four Washington houses reported
new business from down-river points
and one woman from Leonardtown.
Md, advised a saleswoman that she
was doing her first buying in Wash
ington and had made the trip here in
two hours. She had previously gone
elsewhere. and by boat
This Information came to the Retail
Merchants Association unsolicited.
Foresee Splendid Results.
There are any number of towns radi-
ating from Washington where splendid
results can be had for the National
Capital through the advertising that
results from the advent of a well or
ganized band of boosters. such as the
Retail Merchants Association proposes
to interest in the campaign for bigger
and better Washington.
The merchants boosters itinerary will
provide for a reasona BILE stay in each of
the towns on the routes to be traversed.
and the entire campaign will be conducted
on a schedule that will operate to the
greatest possible comfort of those taking
part.

actual use. unlike the horse. which is
constant expense.
In winter instead of hugging the
fire. trying to keep warm. and dread
ing the next trip he will have to
make to town. the farmer can go and
come with comfort and just as often
as he pleases.
The automobile also facilitates COM
munication and intercourse. and be-
cause it does, it is one of the fore
most influences in fostering a strong
sense of good fellowship and fraternal
cooperation among farmers.
When the church. the school and
the grange flourish. the opportunities
for recreation and social betterment
are naturally multiplied. In enabling
the farmer to make the most of these
institutions, the automobile helps to
support and develop them and also rem
