The merchants in any community
who are progressive enough to adver
tise should be patronized, as they
keep the public posted on the price:
of commodities, and advertise their
prices, showing that they are not
afraid to let the public know the
prices at which they sell-rather
they want the public to know they
are giving a dollars value for COL
Tar. Merchants of Vidalia who are
not advertising are making hard
times harder by hiding their light
under a bushel. Cutting down you,
expenses by cutting off your support
of your home paper is ike killing the
goose that lays the golden egg. Any
merchant who will give proper time
to the preparing of an advertisement
and sees to it that his advertisement
is changed regularly, will be many
times repaid for the effort and small
expense incurred.
From a late report issued by the
Investigation department of the
American Press Association it was
shown that exactly 84Go of businesses
in the United States which failed
during the year 1920 were non-ad-
vertisers. This fact in itself seems
to prove that there is some value in
advertising. John Wannamaker says
when he embarked in the merchan-
tile business, he had 800. He says
he bought $40 worth of stock and
put the other $50 in advertising. To-
day "Wannamaker's" is a splendid
monument to the power of print
ing ink"
The Sentinel has always enjoyed
liberal share of advertising from the
merchants of Natchcz. These splen-
did merchants want a share of our
peoples patronage, and advertise for
it,. That is the secret of why they get
such volume of business out of our
parish. They appreciate it. enough
to want the public to know what they
are selling, etc.
OF course the Sentinel is not the
same advertising medium as the big
dailies of the large cities would be,
but it reaches weekly the very people
you want to sell, even better than the
big dailies do. We submit that there
are very few homes indeed in the

FAINT AND ILLITERACY

fact has been brought to light by the
Educational Bureau and the Bureau
of IndustritI Research her". 1t is
that in the states where l'literacy is
most prevalent paint IS least used.
The paint referred to is the common
or barn variety, Of coUrae, c,r -h~
backwoods countries have no need
for the finer pigments or facial
adornments. 1t is true, though, thai
in the sections Of all states whero
white illiteracy is highest painted
homes are rare and painted outbuild-
ings and barns are practically IN
known. Probably the illiterates do
net use paint on their buildings be-
cause they do not understand its
value as a preServative.

Cony VS.. Morse High
March 4 in Augusta
Promises Fast Contest

In all probability the greatest
basketball game of the season, at
least upon the result Of which de-
Ponds a great deal for Cony High,
will be the contest on Friday night,
March 4th. at Cony's Assembly hall
between Cony's rugged warriors and
the quintet from Morse High of Bath.
The result of this game will in q
great measure determine the teams
that are to take part in the New Eng
land tournament which will take
place at Tufts College later in the
month. Morse High comes to the
Capital City expecting to put up the
gTufe Of their lives. With this fast
squad will be seen Perkins, the
sensational center who holds the
New England record of As baskets in
one game. Morse High has been de-
feated but twice this season, once by
Edward Little at Auburn and once by
Coburn Classical, who won by one
score.
Cony is a contender for the State
Championship and the game on this
particular night will be for blood
with the local boys out to win. On
this occasion William O'Connell of
Portland, q member of the Central
Board of officials will act as referee.
The same evening Cony's girls will
play the girls team from Morse
High. Both teams are nearly equal
and the exhibition cannot fail to
please all who attend,

There is much more snow there
than in Augusta" said Mr.. Bilodeau
to the Journal. 1.-The people seem to
be right D. against it. Big crews of

Present Decoration
To Congregational Church

The men of the parish have present.
ed the Congregational church with a
very beautiful mural decoration for
the space back of the pulpit. 1t has
long been felt that this space lacked
strength and richness and accordingly
was out of harmony with the dignity
and beauty of the organ and its set
ting.
The motif for the design was taken
directly from the pulpit furniture, the
principal forms and finals being the
same as in the other decorations of
the interior.
The church is indebted to William
Titcomb, architect, for valuable .sug-
gestion and drawings from which the
design ives finally made
