The Hunters Gun
and Merchants Ad

The hunter with an unload
ed gun never bags any game.
Aud as it is with the hunter
and his gun, so it is with the
merchants and his advertising.
The business man who goes
to the people with an adver-
tisement loaded with the grip
ping facts gets business. He
appeals to them because. he
is progressive enough to tell
them what they want to know
about the goods they want to
buy.
Any person who is in the
market for a certain article is
interested in knowing some
thing about that article before
he parts with his m oney.
He wants to know what store
or stores have it before he goes
out hunting for it. And he
reads the advertisements in
order to get that ir rformation.

Home Owning Is the
Means of Thrift

There are too many people vino
do not wish to assume the respon.
slblllty OF home owning. Instead
of putting their money into a
home, as their fathers did, they
are buying all manner of luxuries.
which they try to make themselves
believe are necessities.
A healthy workingman should
get into debt, and if all should do
50 it would be a panacea for the
present hectic condition of the
laborer's mind, which seems to
dictate that all his earnings should
be spent in wild delirium of
pleasure.
The head of a family who must
look to next months salary for a
payment or an installment due on
home is a far better citizen than
the one who is mortgaging that
salary on idle diversions.
Home owning is among the first
principles of our form of govern
ment. and is the very bulwark of
the nation. Let the individual
who is complaining about the rent
problem get busy and remedy it.
Every man in Idaho Springs can
begin to own a home in a weeks
time. Think it over.
