PatrOnize Stores That Advertise,

There are reasons why you should give the preference to stores that advertise and the reasons concern YOU more than they concern the newspapers that partly LIVE by advertising, or more than trey concern the merchants themselves
 The advertising store has SWING to it-it is keyed up to SERVE-It goes the pace Tn caring for it's customers-It car ries the GOODS-It is in the running.
 It delivers to your door STANDARD STUFF at FAIR PRICES. The prices MUST be fair, because they are ADVER- TISED prices.
 It brings you goods that are fresh and neW-they have not had time to deterio. rate-they have become mouldy Waiting for BUYERS
 Almost all right-gaited men advertise these days and what is better-almost all of them advertise truthfully.

ITS UP TO YOU AND ME

Our country calls, today my boy, Will you weaken will you go And carry our flag to victory Through summers heat or snow, This flag so long untarnished The emblem of the free Our fathers gave 1t to Us my boy, It's up to you and me Will we see it disgraced, dshonored And sit supinely still? I answer no for you, my boy, We'll defend it with will Long has it waved untarnshed, The emblem of the free Our fathers gave it us, my boy, It's up to you and me Will we allow this dear old flag, So dear to you and me, Trailed in the dust by alien hands While waving OCT the sea? Our president has spoken. One of the powers that be, Which leaves no doubt that the next move Is up to you and me. Bravely we'll pass all danger, No matter from whence the foe, In solid phalanx OCT the land, Or in the waves below. Our congress, too, has spoken, One of the powers that be- Which leaves no doubt that the next move, Is up to you and me. Our fathers gave to us this flag, That we so proudly hail, As standing for our liberty, Against the fist of mail Our country sounds the toscin, All of the powers that be, But to carry our flag to victory, Is up to you and me, So let us not be wanting, In answering to the call, Our country's honor is at stake, So let's move forward all For country's flag so dear to us, And trust will always be, But to keep it waving oer our land, Is up to you and me.
