Why not a Wang Chautauqua2 Many
neighboring towns with none of the
natural advantages We have. perhaps
only a vacant lot or two to camp on,
have introduced the idea and success
fully operated the plan.
Here in Wang we have nature at
her best, the beautiful river Syene-
ham with its bathing fishing and
boating possibilities. The river is
bordered with beautiful natural
groves covering hundreds of acres
with tenting and camping privileges,
80 delightful to the heart of the seek
er of out of door enjoyment and camp
life. In these days of innumerable
automobiles and who hasn't got a car
a fifty or hundred mile trip is consi-
dered merely a pleasure trip. The
lack of railway accommodations is no
draw back when the pleasures of
participation of enjoyment with real
nature is considered and in fancy we
can see hundreds of these buzz
wagons staged about the camp in the
cool shelter of the friendly forset.
At the start as for the first year all
expense would need be secured. The
revenue from those desires Of car
ing to the want of the camper in re-
freshments, etc. would supply suffici-
emit funds for the small expense at.
cached to the preliminary arrange
ment. A few of our Wang folks sure
ly can spare q little time needed for
arrangement and developing the plan
and success will come without much
effort. Think it over you fellows who
have all your interests, here it will
advertise Wang to the borders of the
state and then some.

He is known for many miles around

promise of proper development, in
this organization, and believe me Ole

years ago Mr.. Romfo retired from
active business operations in the

his farm interests, calling TO his aid

the throcs of a world war to awaken

"The 313,000,000 pounds Of wool act

cloth, would not have made half Of
the G20,O00,000 yards of cloth turned

mated that the cotton used in wool
woven goods amounts to Onc-lifth Of
the amount of the wool used The

that 400,000,000 pounds would be a
very light estimate of the amount Of

From the time shoddy began to
masquerade as virgin wool under the
double standard of all-wool the shod-
DIV manufacturers began artfically to
divert the public demand for new
