Things To Forget.

Forget the SANDER you have heard,
Forget the hasty, unkind word.
Forget the quarrel and the cause,
Forget the whole affair, because
Forgetting is the only way.
Forget the storm of yesterday,
Forget the chap whose sour face
Forgets to smile in any place.
Forget the trials you have had,
Forget the weather if its bad.
Forget the knocker, he's freak,
Forget him seven days week.
Forget you're not a millionaire,
Forget the gray streaks in your
hair.
Forget the home team lost the
game,
Forget the pitcher was to blame.
Forget the coffe when its cold,
Forget the kick, forget the scold.
Forget the plumbers awful charge
Forget the iceman's bill is large.
Forget the coal man and his ways
(weighs).
Forget the heat in summer days.
Forget, wherever you may roam,
Forget the duck who wrote this
poem.
Forget that he, in social bliss,
Forgot himself when he wrote
this.
Forget to ever get the blues,
But don't forget to pay your dues.

Did you ever go into a town
and, as you stepped fiom the
train, have it strike you suddenly
that the town was dead? Have
you ever had town described to
you as a dead town? Have
you ever stopped to analyze just
what is meant by these words
dead town. In the last analy-
sis they mean just one thing
and that is that the merchants of
the town don't advertise. A dead
town has certain positive aspects
of demise which are as bald as a
piece of crepe hanging on the
door of a private house. The
stores seem to be merely existing.
Their shelves are covered with
apparently unsaleable goods.
The storekeepers seem to be wy
ing with each other to see which
will win the first prize as the town
crouch. If you talked with them
they knocked the town, they
knocked business, they knocked
the mail order house. They were
continually complaining that other
people did business and made
money, but that they didn't seem
to be able to sell anything. They
guessed it was the town. Yes,
that was 1.-THE town. If you
asked that merchant if he adver-
tised, he would have looked at
you with amazement. What was
the use of advertising when busi-
ness was SO bad2 People who had
money to spend, he would tell
you, were sending it to the mail
order houses. No, he would say
he didn't advertise. He wouldn't
throw good money after bad. On
the other hand, go into live
town and what will you see?
The merchants have attractive
displays in their stores. The
daily or weekly newspapers are
filled with big announcements of
special sales or low priced goods.
They are not afraid of the mail
order houses because they have
the same means to reach the peo-
pie --advertising-that makes the
mail order house great. The
merchants have their local asso-
citation for mutual help, and be-
hind the association the local
newspaper is pushing pushing
pushing. Everybody is working
and everybody is happy and boost
ing. If you want a live town get
behind the newspaper and the
newspaper will do the rest. For
get the timeworn arguments that
the paper is a dead one. The
paper is alive enough if the people
are alive. The surest test of a
live town is liye newspaper, and
a newspaper can't be alive unless
the town boosters do their share.
