How many Alexandrians want to
help advertise Alexandria Here is a
suggestion: Write letter or postal
card to your friends who live in other
parts of the state, or in other states,
and tell them what is going on here.
Let them know about the. new indus
tries that have located here. Tell them
that there is plenty of work, at good
wages. Every family has acquain-
tances who do not reside in Alexan-
dria. Suppose each one sends a letter
to them telling them what is happen
ing here in the old town. Do you re-
alize what it would mean? How it
would advertise your city? 1t is
time for Alexandrians, as individuals,
to do their part along this line. We
should write about Alexandria and let
the outside world know what is be-
ing done and is going to be done to
make Alexandria bigger and better
CITY. Will YOU act on this today?
