Boosters Make Frequent Stops.

Frequent stops were made all along
the line between Washington and
Laurel. and the trade boosters dis
mounted to distribute their Campaign
literature" and souvenirs to the resi-
dents of the Maryland towns. Stores
and post offices were invaded, auto
mobiles and buggies received their
quota of the ads" The Washington
merchants are conversant with the
trade boosting practices followed on
such campaigns. having taken part in
many similar trips in the past. Resi-
dences along the trolley line were Wis
tied in some instances and information
distributed as to the stocks on exhibit
ton and for sale in the Washington
shops.
At Rerwyn some of the business men
visited a church festival and distribute
ed their literature. Another stop was
made at Hyattsville in order to give
the campaigners an opportunity to get
in their good work.
When the party reached Laurel a
parade down the main street of the
town to the Laurel Hotel was the first
move. Reinforced by chicken dinner.
the boosters began their assault upon
the town. which they carried with a
rush. Shops We're visited. literature
distributed and cordial invitations ex-
tended to residents of the historic
Maryland town to come to Washington
for their Christmas shopping.
