The Punchboard Evil is Banned
From Another Georgia City

That fascinating gambling device, known
the punchboard and again hobs up to have
some city authority take punch at it.
The latest decision comes from the city of Rome
Georgia. and the chief of police has warned offend
ers that punchboards must go.
The Tribune Herald in its news story of the ban
shing of this gambling device from the city of Rome
says:
From time to time developments have
shown, it is said that and boys invest
money in the punchboard which they can i'll
afford to lose and such Investments are prov
ing the undong of some of them. 1t is even
charged by persons who claim to be in position
to know, that stealing has resulted from losses
the punchboard
All true, very true The punchboard is without
merit except it may enrich the manufacturer and
add profits for the operator
The punch aboard is a little swindling game of
chance to catch the dimes and dollars-and if is
put on the market device to increase sales y
1t does the work thoroughly and efficiently, and
many man and boy has punched it's little face full
OF holes and squandered a weeks wages-when
wife sister, mother is wondering if John will have
sufficient money left out of the weekly pay check to
buy her a Easter bonnet
The punchboard leads on to greater evils. It
lays the foundation for more extensive gambling
operations, and the boy who becomes "punchboard
fend" is nearly hopeless Aside from draining his
pockets of all the money he can get hold of, it
weakens his power of resistance and gives him .
false idea of the value of money, and time Usually
1t is his employers time that he gives to the punch
board, and in many it is the employers mon
ey that he fches, when his funds have been exhaust
ed through the operations of the punchboard.
Any city would do well to put ban on tbi,
gambling device. Most states prohibit it's opera
ton and IN Georgia it is a violation of the State law
against gambling

WEEKS NEWS AND VIEWS
FROM OUR EXCHANGES
TIE LOCAL. NEWSPAPER

In the course of an address man who has succeeded
lin business made the following remarks regarding the
value of newspapers for advertising purposes:
The local newspaper the greatest thing the retailer
has if he will it right. If merchants class would
ony take advantage of the opportunities that the local
newspapers afford they would reap rewards far beyond
their fondest dreams Your local editor gives you back
I$2 for dollar you invest with him. He furnishes
you at his own expense of the biggest assets you
possess the medium which to let the people know what
you have to sell. If you have foolish ideas about the
nonproductveness of newspaper advertising throw them
ION and try 1T. One try will prove nothing If it is
successful much the BETTER but the constant use of
newspaper advertising in intelligent manner will pro-
dUce results The best friend any business man in this
world has, next to his wife, the local newspaper and
f he doesn't get full value for this friendship it is his
fault not the EDITORS"
The speaker concluded by saying that although "he
editor of the socad country weekly does
to upbud his town and the retailer than all other in
Huences combined he does not ask for charity but
ready to repay the merchant 500 per
dollar properly spent in advertising Advertiser

An Inconsistent Dig at the Proposed
Seventy-fve Million Bond Issue

One of the brightest and best edited newspap-
ers that reaches the Journals exchange desk, con-
tanning an editorial note last week that is unworthy
of the columns of that excellent paper The Journal
refrains from naming this newspaper, because we
believe the editorial did not emanate from the brain
of the editor but resulted purely from disturbance
of the stomach or liver
1t is well that there is diversion Of opinion, and
the Journal is fair enough to admit that the news
paper in question fully entitled to it's own opinion
in this matter-but what do you think of this {?
Here is the editorial note that surely must be re-
sultant from disordered stomach or liver:
cts the automobile crowd who are clam
oring for an additional bonded debt of $75-
100000 on the state, and if the legislature is
noncompoop enough to pass such amend
ment, will the people vote for t?''
The little "dig" at the proposed road bond is
sue would pass without notice. were it not for the
glaring inconsistency of the thought expressed It
is all too common to mislead the people on matters
that must be solved at the polls. Throw a ''lttle
dirt in their eyes it were, and lead them to be-
ieve that unjust tax is being imposed and the
opponents of any measure, no matter how merito-
rious, have fair chance to win
The hard-surfaced road bond issue, it should be
understood, does not impose a dollars additional
tax on any property owner. The Automobile
crowd" pays the bill through the tax already i'm
posed on them. The automobile crowd NAV be
clamoring for the bond issue-why should they not
do so? Uncle Sam contributes to the State of
Georgia ONE DOLLAR for every ONE DOLLAR
that Georgia puts up to build hard-surfaced roads
In other words Georgia gets hardsurfaced roads
at cost of approximately FIFTY CENTS ON the
DOLLAR.
1t is also inconsistent and entirely false line Of
reasoning to suggest that automobile owners are
the chief benefactors from the road bond issue It
IS true that automobile drivers will derive benefit
and peasure-but it is also true that good roads are
far more important and of greater value to the
farmer than any other single class of people The
advantages of good roads are so evident that if is
needless to enumerate, and the Journal predicts
the $75,OOO,0O0 bond issue will carry by an over
whelmng majority when it is presented to the peo-
pie.
