IT'S THE OPEN SEASON FOR
AGENTS OF ALL KINDS

There's been numerous takers in
town recently trying to separate our
good citizens from their hard-earned
money. We don't remember them
all, but aside from the usual run OF
agents for household necessities"
we noticed former service man who
was extremely nice and polite to the
ladies and wanted 47c from each lady
for a magazine that not one of the
fortunate subscribers can now tell the
name Of He was easy, however, to
the fellow next day who wished to
sell stock In $50 lots for bolt with
a thread both ways. The bolt looks
good but he did not explain that the
stock selling had been going on for
several seasons and the smoke from
the factory chimney has not yet shad-
owed the landscape.
The next man, slick of tongue,
wanted SIS from each business man
and in return he would put their
name in three-colored paint-three
colors remember--on big sign. In
the center of this sign would be
thermometer. Think of it! About
100000 which would go far toward
paving a section of the street, putting
IN crossing. or buying something
OF permanent benefit to the town, alb
solutely thrown away!
How is 1t done? BY the old dodge,
q telling one business man that
dozen of his fellow citizens had al
ready spoken for space" when per-
maps ne told the same story to the
first one.
Ihe way to combat these fellows is

would be for commercial club to

Stranger would be referred Z If the
secretary had doubts as to the value
ot the proposition he could call over
tne phone for the advise of say
eommlttee of two, who would have
lae plan explained to them. They
would make a decision, and the en-
uorsement or refusal would be of

can get this at any drug store, and a

that is required 1t makes an abundance

planned that scientists were progress
ing in their fight on cancer, saying
that medical research gradually was
getting into a position of strategic
superiority in it's attack on this

cit seems possible that yellow fe-
yer may be the first disease to be
eradicated by science" he continued
ut is insect-borne by particular
