DID you EVER sTOP no THINK--

That the way TO get your business
in the mind Of the buying public, is
by advertising.
That men who constantly find fault
with a citys ambitions, are the one
who are forever Directing to every
thing. They take no interest in pub
lie affairs, unless they see where it
directly puts something into their
pocketbooks and they are always
blocking the highway Of advancement.
These men are on the wrong side.
Join that live aggregation Of city
boosters, your Chamber Of Commerce,
and help you city to become a Bigger,
Better, Brighter and Buster City
That conventions are Of much value
to your city in a commercial way as
well as they advertise your city.
That visitors spend much in retail
purchases, in addition TO the amount
expended in their entertainment.
That you should go after eonven-
tons. Get 'em and lots Of EN- They
will help to make better business and

Old Mill Pond
 Was Once Old
 Swimming Hole

What is to become of Berkshire Mill pond'' is the big question on the minds of the people living Tn the sec ton surrounding the pond at the head of the Pequonnock river.
 In the old days the place was quite a resort for the young and old sports of the neighborhood who swan in the pond in the good old summertime and skated upon its shimmery surface in the winter.
 The ice company has damned up the water at the southern end of Beardsley Park. This body of water is known as Bunnells Pond and has not flowed to the sound for quite some time. The river, which is al fected by the tide, flows in aud out of bridge at the southern end of the mill pond.
 Up to some time ago a gate was operated here, by which means ttiH water in the pond was locked in at high tide and thereby kept a body of water in the basin at all times. Now the gate is missing and the water flows out at low tide leaving a mud flat strewn with old baskets, wash boilers and the like.

Sweater news that will interest you.

By far the prettiest and most eff fective sweater of the season is as usual one of the simplest design. It is plain chain stitch with ribbed cuff on long sleeves. It is cut quite low in front and is finished with a simple closely knitted band.
 These sweaters come in buff, orchid, Harding blue and oxford grey mohafr yarn and their real beauty lies in the silver gleam of the yarn itself partially due to the silky effect of the mohair and in part to the inter1ningling of bit of silvery white in the knitting.
 They must be seen to be ap- preciated, the price is $5.
