WASHINGTON
SPLENDID AUTO
FIELD-BARLEY
Roamer Car President Says
City Great Adyer-
tising Field.
Ry GEoRGE nRoMN.

1t was the writer's pleasure TO spend
a pleasant hour last Friday with A :.
Barley. president of the Barley Motor
Company. manufacturers Of the
Roamer motor cars. A man Of broad
experiences In the affairs of business
and imbued with a keen understand
ing OF life and its existing conditions,
one can readily understand the rea-
son for the success Of any organiza-
ton or its products with which he
may be connected
A former merchandise expert Of nc
mean standing in the business felt
Mr.. Barley Is adding to that basic
knowledge by making a trip through
out the country. in an effort to aseer-
tain at first hand. conditions as they
really exist in the different cities and
sections.
Questioned as to his opinion re-
garding Washington, his reply
seemed to US to strike at the very
erux of the situation. Splendid! Sc
good that 1 am fully convinced thai
IN Washington you have one Of the
finest and widest fields for the auto
mobile market in this country. Here
In. this city you have witnessed the
influx OF 5000 newcomers, all with
Positions that are paying good sal
aries. There are hundreds. yes,
thousands OF men who are giving
their services to the government and
are generally known as dollar-a-
y1Rr men. These are men not only
or wide influence, but OF large
means.
World Capital.
"In a brief time, this city has be-
come the capital of the world, where
as once we thought of it as our own
capitaI-that of the United States.
Your field here for business and the
scope Of work that can successfully
De accomplished in enlarging it, causes
me to admit that 1 am at a loss for
the proper words to give expression
tolit
IYour papers are being read widely
both in this city and outside; prob
ably more than you yourself realize
iii Washington is moulding public
opinion throughout this country. II
Is an assured fact that such adver-
tisements as appear in Washington
papers are producing much the same
and possibly greater effect for IA
favorable business than the national
magazines- The progressive business
men Of the country will soon become
aware OF the wonderful value that
your advertising columns hold, for
them even though their intentions be
to spread their news in a national
NHay- Money? You seem to have
sOdles Of IL right here. while pros
peTity is a fact now enjoyed by ev-
cry live merchant
Great place-beg pardon-city.

State Leader Grassland complimented
the Club on their exhibits and estimated
that the display in the hall annex and
the records of poultry and pig products
meant at least $1,000 for the seasons
work of the Waldo County, Club. He al
so urged that many of the exhibits be
sent to Portland for the State Club DEM
onstrations. He said Waldo was the first
of the eleven counties in Maine having
organized club work, to hold their post
poned meeting and if the others main
tanned this county's excellent work it
would exceed the U. of M. Extension
Departments most optimistic hopes.
Mr. Grassland, a young man whom
children would naturally admire, led them
in rousing cheers for all who were con-
cerned in the Clubs welfare and closed
with cheers for Uncle Sam and Victory.
