TWO SPOTS

When the labor unions are not
SATISFIED with what they earn. they
60 on strike and make conditions
still worse for the whole country.
When the farmers aren't satisfied,
they work still harder and make
conditions better for the whole
country.
Elaborate systems OF police and
detectives are supported to get nj
tar thieves and burglars, but who
are pursuing the fake stock men
that steal more from the people
each year than all the burglars ever
get!
The city girls fascinate the boys
with hundred dollar dresses, while
the country girls faselnate ther,

THE INFLUENCE OF PAINT

In former times some business
men used to like to have shabby
looking old sign and they We're in
different II their store fronts did
look faded and worn. These ap-
pearanees suggested that they had
been in business a long time. and
gave an air of respectable antiqu-
ity to their enterprise. But that
time has long gone by.
Along with the Clean Up idea,
the Paint Up campaign is going
over the country. The influence
Of paint Is subtitle. and you can not
tell Just where 1t ends. OF course
there Is the physical truth that q
wsll painted building does not de-
cay and will last many years more.
Then there is the fact that paint
brings financial credit. The banker
would 60 slow about lending mon
ey to householder who did not
keep his building well painted.
But a neat fresh color IL kind II
guarantee that the building is 60
ing to be kept up. Insurance men
say that property that Is kept
painted is likely to be u better flre
risk.
Then there is the Influence that
paint has on a community. II you
could take seedy looking city. and
paint every building that needed it,
the mental attitude OF tina town
would change The place would
look more live and go ahead. Bus
iness men would feel moro conf.
denca in it's future. They would
have more courage to go ahead and
plan enterprises based on it's grow.
tn. And community In which
hope prevails is one that is going to
make progress.
Furthermore paint attracts trade.
When people from the surrounding
country come into town kept
neatly painted, they feel that the
place has the spirit of enterprise,
and that it is q good center for their
business relations. They are SINH
larily repealed from a place that is
not kept up. Everyone in Holly
who paints his buildings this sea
son, Is helping to maintain the ap-
pearAncs and substantial pro
gress OF his home town.
