CAMPAIGN CLOSES

The last of the series of Trade at-Home"
pages has appeared. This campaign was put
on by The News ten weeks ago, and once
week since then a full page has been de-
voted to arguments and reasons why the
citizens of Dawson should spend their mon
ey at home. 1t has been a popular high
class campaign of education along lines
that must appeal to not only the man who
has the welfare of his home town at heart,
but as well to the careful buyer who be-
lieves in spending his money where he gets
the best values.
Every business man who has expressed
himself regarding this campaign has with
out hesitancy commended the efforts of this
paper and the merchants to convince the
people that they were making a grave mis-
take in patronizing the mail order house
or the merchants of other cities, to the
detriment of the home merchant Flourish
ing industries and up-to-date mercantile es-
adjustments are the life of any city Of these
Dawson has many, but they can be made
bigger and better by the cooperation of
the home people.

Is important in the conduct of the war, and
cordial cooperation from the people is to
be expected. The wheatless and meatless
days will be no hardship. They call for care
and tritling self-denial; that is all We are
entering a regime which amounts to a vol
untary ratlonlng; whether or not it will con-
tinue to be voluntary in it's application will
depend upon the loyalty with which we re-

Washington.

that is energetic and effective measures 70

no citizens more patriotic than those in the
agricultural class, but it is short-sigbted

awake to the gravity of a situation which
may yet be a determining factor in the out
come of the world war.

John L.

An essay might be written about him as
The Hero. He won as few men have won
it the awed regard of a generation. He was
warrior. They made of him an Achilles.
He is dead now, but John L., like many an
other really died when he was crowded
, from the minds of men. That which remain

gone down.
Three great statures in the field of ath-
letlc competition have recently gone Rob-
ert 'Fitzsimmons, was one. Frank Gotch an
other. John L. Sullivan the third. In manv

lea has ever approached his popularity. He
was as national as John Paul Jones. He

1t was something to personify an aspira-
ton of the multitude, to fill a void in the
common desire. John LIS was a sportless
age. The horse play of the cavalier was no

Nevertheless, there was in the heart of the
meekest man an urge to play, an urge to

John L. was their other selves. 1t was a
huge task to let off steam for nation.

Dawson Woman Gives Rea-
sons For Trading at Home.

Conserving the dollar is an important
matter these days, and there is no better
way to DO 1t than by keeping it at home
Inc following communication gives a num-
Der OF splendid reasons why you should do
your part by your home merchants. thereby
helping yourself and your neighbor:
Reasons For Trading at Home.
Editor of The Dawson News: Reasoning,
to be of any value, must be based on prin-
clple. And perhaps the most important rea-
son for buying at home is founded on the
principle of the Golden Rule For instance,
mad we invested our money in some bust
ness here, having selected our goods with
the utmost care and selling them at mod
est profit, would we appreciate the fact that
% per cent of our home people, includ-
ing our neighbors, acquaintance and even
friends, betook themselves to other cities
to purchase the same quality of goods at
the same price or little more than we were
asking? Doing unto others as we would thew
should do unto US always leaves such com
Portable feeling with one, but the expert

stores and being jostled about for seven
hours amid sea of bargain hunters, then

Portable feeling we declare for the eigh-
teellth time that we have at last learned
our lesson through the hard teachings of
eXperlence-and henceforth and forever
will do our shopping at home
We all have reason to be proud of our
home town with its many we'll kept stores
and it is merely showing our appreciation
to give these merchants our patronage.
We all wish to see Dawson continue to
become larger and more beautiful each
year, and this wish will be fulfilled as each
individual realizes it is the privilege and du-
ty of each one to give her the ENCOURAGE
ment and support as the opportunity af-
fords
We hear much about economy these davs
and surely doing our shopping in neighbor-
ing cities would not be practicing economy
either in money, time or strength, and, as
the writer can testify, elbowing through
crowds all day isn't the most soothing thing
for ones disposition.
We, of course, wish to be patriotic but
we must remember that patriotism. like
charity, begins at home. And the person
who isn't patriotic enough to give the mer-
chants of his own town his support isn't
likely to be patriot in the larger sense of
the word.
And so we would name manv reasons
why we should buy at home, but the main
reason is simply because it is right and

WHAT WATSON DID

Friend Griffin, of the cambridge Post
Searchlight, wants to know "of any con-
structive legislation Tom Watson ever put
over, anything that he ever builded, any
idea that would lead to anything construct
i've that he ever offered" We are not an
apologist for nor champion of Mr.. Watson,
but we are sure our cambridge contempt
rary believes in giving the devil his due. For
that reason we are sure that Brother Griffin
overlooked the fact that the McDufie man
introduced in congress the first resolution
providing for the rural delivery of mail,
which has grown and expanded into one
Of the greatest services the government rem
ders the people. The rural population of
the United States has much for which to
thank Tom Watson.

WISE MERCHANTS

An Atlanta daily newspaper, whose cost
of white paper during 1918 will be $3.50, 900
greater than it was in 1917, was forced to
raise its advertising rates to cover the
greatly increased cost of operation, and,
according to a news item from that city,
has not lost a single advertiser of conse-
quence. On the contrary, the papers regu-
Lar advertisers are increasing their space.
If city merchant whose name is house
hold word throughout its community con-
siders advertising such vital part Of his
business organization, and is willing to in
crease his space at increased rates, Ger
tainly the same holds good for any mer-
chant in any community, whether large or
small. The old-fashioned idea that a mer-
chant is so well known, and his line of goods
so familiar to the public that he doesn't
need advertising in his business has long
since gone to the scrap pile, like other old
ideas and other old methods Probably the
most famous business concern in the entire
world is the Standard Oil company, vet it
expends hundreds of thousands of dollars
every year simply advertising products
which everybody uses and will continue to
use.
A merchant may sell some goods without
advertising, but there is not a merchant in
the country who wouldn't sell more goods
by advertising than he does by refusing to
advertise

GOVERNMENT PUBLICITY

Some months ago mention was made in
The News of the food of publicity material
which then was flowing in upon newspaper
offices. This material originated at manv
sources, and it aimed to promote a wide va
riety of enterprises. Numbers of the en-
terprises were meritOrious; others were not.
The purpose of it all was identical in one
respect, namely: to secure newspaper space
without paying for it. Since that com
ment was made the flood has not diminish
ed, but rather, has increased. Each davis
mail has been burdened with an ever in
creasing quantity of letters and circulars
from publicity bureaus of one kind and an
other
Some of the most active publicity agents
are In the employ of the federal govern
ment departments at Washington and else
where 1t is apparent that the government
is spending huge sums in an effort to get
free publicity from the newspapers. Geor-
gla newspapers have commented on this
matter more than once, and they are agreed
that large part of this expenditure repre-
sents extravaganza, or waste. At a time
when newspaper space is at premium
when the cost of publishing newspapers is
at the highest point yet reached, when the
demands upon newspaper space never were
so great, the government is UNLOADING q
perfect deluge of publicity material unon
newspaper offices. 1t ought to occur to men
responsible for this defuge that no newspa-
per, even with the most generous intention,
could publish even small portion of it. The
small weekly newspaper is not able to even
skim the surface of it. The consequence of
1T is that the government is uselesslv bur
dening the mails, and is daily feeding thous-
ands OF waste baskets with material which
represents money expended for salaries, pa.
per and other incidentals. There seems to
he no thought of economy at Washington
In the matter. No private enterprise coulc
afford to be so extravaganza. EQUAL prodi
gallty on the part of private enterprise in
evitably would result in bankruptcy. If tn,
government would strike a balance. if i
would compare the publicity actually re
tceived with it's ultimate cost, it would dis
cover that it is paying an extravagant price
The government would be money ahead
and it would get more real publicity if i
would buy space at the regular advertiser,
rates.
Publishers who know what paper ant
printing cost are appalled, by the wastefull,
extravagant methods of the government
The overlooking newspaper waste basket
are standing Indictment of the presen
method. They convict, when the govern
ment is spending such huge sums on tn
war, not alone of extravaganza but of foil
and lack of common prudence.

REGULATIONS FOR SALE OF FLOUR
MODIFIED AS APPLIED TO FARMERS

Under New order Farmers Can Give Certi-
hcate Instead of Buying an Equal
Amount of Wheat Substitute.
Modification of the regulations governing
the purchase of wheat flour by farmers and
eliminating to certain degree the rule
compelling them to purchase an equal
amount of wheat substitutes was announc-
ed Saturday night by the food administra-
tor of Georgia.
Under the original order as issued by the
food administration it was necessary for
every purchaser of wheat flour to buv at
the same time an equal amount of wheat
substitutes and this ruling worked decid-
ed hardship on farmers who produced some
wheat, but considerable quantity of wheat
substitutes such as corn, rice and similar
products.
The new ruling issued by DIR. Soule al
lows producers of farm crops to purchase
wheat flour on presentation of a properly
signed certificate showing that they have on
hand as much or more of wheat substitutes

There was recently made in congress the
statement that "7O per cent. of the people
are living in their accustomed ways, appar-
entity unmindful that the nation is at war I"
The statement seems to be supported by sta
tlstlcs which show that domestic consump-
ton of wheat and meats during 1917 was
but little less than that of 1916. The vol
ume of domestic trade showed no apprecia-
BILE decrease, especially in retail business.
There is probably necessity for government
regulation of food, if assistance be given the
