T. - not mere coincidence that the recent ire
,sr5oI, Growth and prosperity Of FL PasO, breaking
al rsy1io9s records follow the adoption of a more
resqive Ian of advertising the city financing semi

rerarable Growth that has been experienced by all
stabgbed industries in the city; the persistent
na;gning for home patronage has also helped local
ybo1essIers and retailers extensively. This splendid
ron1otion work has had its effect in other communities
i o,r naigbborbood and while it has in turn helped
tboir o local industries and merchants, it has also
effected in a more marked tendency to "buy in FL
Paso what Won cannot buy in your home town"
The Dublictv work Of the chamber Of
has attracted attention to Fl Paso, the valley, and
tbe southwest Inquiries thus stimulated have often
euled in establishing valuable connections 1t is not
always or even usually possible to trace the direct
results of this sort of community publicity, but it is
certain that results are being obtained and that every
bodv is sharing in the benefits Much Of the heavy
Investment made here in the last two years is in
measure the result of the publicity that has been
given TO the city, its resources, its growth and pros
perity.
III Pasoans believe in Ell Paso. Capital is hard to
Obtain for most of that which is available is quickly
put to profitable employment and competition is Keen
But FL Pasoans are learning how to create their own
capital bv hard work, and how to conserve it and
make If grow through economy, thrift, and industry.
Fl Paso is great home owning city, and that means
that far more than the average number Of families are

Demostheues. however. had an iron
will Many men would have become
discouraged and engaged in some other
line Of business, or possibly entered a
law office. but not SO with Demos
themes. Long before the neighbors had
gone out to do the milking Demosthe-
ne could be seen walking up and down
on the seashore, seeing how far his
voice would carry with the wind at his
back. He would also hold large pebbles
i'm his mouth and force Greek adJec-
tives through them at a high rate OF
speed. While his fellOw-Greeks were
learning how to steer hand-car or
run a candy store, Demosthenes would
ne chasing the elusive Greek consonant
to its lair in front Of a cheval mirror.
He overcame all obstacles except Jhe
shape of his legs, which were modeled
closely after a wishbone.
Demosthenes shed more language
FOR his country than any other man
Of his times. but did not go TO tne
front so that il was noticeable. his
death was very sad. Having Deen
condemned to die, he escaped from his
captors and sought refuge in a church,
where he swallowed the contents OF
a drug store and died with extreme
rapidly, being found artifully draped
over the organ bench in listening
attitude.

that we can do anything we set out
to do except crafty the tastes OF a

JOY RIDE TURNS OVER
ON PENINSULA DRIVE

Sunday evening about 500 O'Clock
a party OF four young men driving
an automobile attempted to go around
the corner of First avenue and Pen
insula drive at rate OF nearly 40
miles an hour, resulting in the cars
turning over and the riders being
pinned to the ground.
Luckily, assistance was close at
hand and the auto was lifted so that
its occupants could be helped out and
immediate aid given them. 1t was
found upon examination that none OF
the men was seriously injured and
that they were all sobered from their
more or less intoxicated state before
the accident The car, which was
badly smashed, was towed to Day
tona garage after the gasoline, which
had caught fire, was extinguished;
and the young men returned to their
homes across the river thankful that
they had escaped so fortunately.
