ADVERTISING is
BROWNSVILLE s
GREATEST need
Chamber Of Commerce Un-
able to Fill Requests Of
Prospective Tourists for
Literature on City

Brownsville is in desperate need OF
advertising literature to supply the nu-
merous requests received by the Cham
Der of Commerce and various local bus
mess concerns from prospective tour,
lists who desire 10 spend the winter in
the South. and having heard Of the Val.
ley, are interested in learning what at
fractions IL offers.
The secretary of the Brownsville
Chamber of Commerce has a number OF
letters from parties in Iowa, Illinois,
and several other states requesting lit
erature of this character, giving at
fractions the Valley offers. hotel rates
and other information. In several in
stances parties ranging from three or
four persons to special excursions OF
Is or 100 have requested this informa
tion, and having no suitable literature,
the secretary has been compelled to ad-
vertise the Valley TO these prospective
tourists as best he can by letters.
A Brownsville man who returned last
week from an extended trip through the
north reports that the exodus OF tour
lists from the northern states 10 Cali
fornia and Florida is grcacr this year
than ever before: that thousands of au-
to tourists are now in those states who
would come TO the Valley If they were
informed of the many attractions the
Valley has TO offer
Are Interested in the Valley.
SCORES ,of men | talked with were

attractions and many asked me to send

friends. This. OF course. | am unable TO
do because we have none and ! know
from observations that Brownsville and
other Valley cities are losing thou-
sands Of dollars this year by failing to
supply literature, road guides. etc. to
the tourists.
The Brownsville Chamber OF Com
meree has made several attempts to a
wakcn an interest in securing proper
advertising literature for the city. but
their efforts have not been successful
The Chamber has n few booklets pub
lished two years ago which are now out
OF date and practically worthless. and
the supply of these Is too limited to
serve the demand.
brownsville and tho Valley can never
hope 20 secure the tourist business un-
less the climate and attractions OF
the lower border are advertised" he
continued The Valley is receiving a
great amount OF newspaper advertising
il is true. but what We need in general
descriptive booklet. road guides. and
other advertising literature Of that
character. II Brownsville will spend a
few thousand dollars for this purpose
next spring aud summer | believe the
city will derive a hundred dollars for
every dollar spent when the tourists
come south next winter"

This rival, according to W. L. George, the
English novelist, and others, is her husbands

But il disaster turks in a home where the
husbands business threatens to overshadow his
wife's affection, what Of the home where the wife
herself is an earner-and where she earns, is
sometimes the case, more than her husband? Mr.
George hasn't answered that question yet. But
his view is hardly necessary now, for the answer
has been supplied by who has qualified
through personal experience. Miss Helen Lee
Worthng, formerly Mrs. Charles Mcdonald, Of
BrOokline, Mass, who has just been divorced from
her husband. says that the main of their
double discomfort was the amount Of her salary.
She charged her husband with cruelty-and
specified that the cruelty arose out of his intense
jealousy of her earning power. my business

at the right time to my second husband And
would gladly pin the orange blossoms 20 the bridal
cap Of his second sweetie And that's that"
Mrs. Elaine Harris, who prior to her marriage
was one Of the Lees Of Virginia, spurned her hus-
bands millions and turned for happiness 70 other
things. But the ironic hand of fate has recently
inserted itself into the life Of Mrs. Harris The
forbiddng presence Of Money had destroyed the
possibility Of happiness in her home, she said, bu;
she recently suffered the indignity of having her
trunks attached because she couldn't raise $4,000
It appears, from her subsequent statements
that this Virginia girl who wed a New York
banker, went into marriage expecting great love
above all things. But differences occurred rather

The contrary Of Miss Workings case is found
in the tragic search for freedom and happiness
which Mrs Elaine Lee Harris has been making
