There is an old adage to the effect that no man Is a prophet in his own country; there Is another old saying thatin a big city no one knows you, and In a small city most people know your business better than you do yourself.
 An organization of men who start to pro- mote an industry of nationwide scope among the people who know them best are often criti- cized and sometimes ridculed, but it is well known fact above dispute that most of the great things Tn literature, Tn art, Tn finance III con- structOn, and.in manufacture, originally came from small communities, and, in so doing, they have had to run the gauntlet of jealousy, gossip and ridicule but 1t Is also recognized fact that results, even though they may be small, can be secured MORE rapidly in a small community than III a large one.
 came to Phoenix after successful business career of twenty years as promoter, to organ ize and finance a company for the manufacture and sale of what 1 consider to be the greatest non-alcoholic drink that has ever come to my attention. 1 came here to promote this. com pany after two years of careful study over the matter. In attempting to do this at the present time, realize the obstacles that are to be met and feel myself competent to carry the matter to a successful conclusion.
 Celery-Vig, without question, with in two years after the close of the pres ent world war, will be a nationally recognized addition to the few popular drinks now being sold throughout the United States.

 thought enough of this beverage to invest $20,000 of my own money in 1t before offered share of stock to the public Not only that 1 am so confident of its ultimate great success that am at the present time investing more than $25,000 of the money of Murray J. Morley, Inc, in pleasure park and picnic grounds where expect not only to entertain the good people of the Salt River Valley but also to build home for myself on adjoining grounds, as have felt for ten years past that Phoenix would ultimately be my permanent place of residence.
 In starting the sale of Celery-Vig, we have met with many obstacles Almost before we had our drink on the market, it was the common gossip or the GUY that we would not pc allowed to operate for any length of time. Some dealers absolutely refused to sell our product their excuse being that no one would have it for sale very long.
 Some Phoenix dealers refuse to buy Celery Wig for their stores, claiming that we sell at the same price to homes as we sell to dealers. That is another camouflage to kill Celery-Vig We only sell to families in special size bottle-We sell this size to families only and we do not sell it to dealers. Our family trade in no way con- f1icts with the dealers trade because people who have our drink in theirhomes will invariably buy
