PROMOTING TRADE

The advance of country town
depends in large measure on the
activity which its merchants SHOW
in holding the trade that naturally
belongs to them and reaching out
for more. Many rural centers are
the natural trading point for a large
territory, yet by the lack of Ger
tain spirit of hustle and enterprise,
they may fail to get the retail bust
ness that they could have, and the
progress of their community is
hampered.
Every town center should do a
certain amount of active and CO.
operative work in pursuit of this
end. The fall and winter season is
splendid time to consider this mat
ter, and lay plans for the future de-
velopment of retail trade. Com
mittees should be working on plans
here in Oglethorpe by which om
retail business could draw patronage
from a wider territory.
A first reqisite in any such cam
paign is of course rational amount
of advertising. When the merchants
of town advertise, they not merely
compete with each other in race
to see which shall win the most pub
lie interest. They also work united
ly to push the town ahead,
The man out in the country who
reads AS advertisement in The
Citizen and is interested to come in
and buy at that store, may also take
the time while here to visit B~s store
and buy something there. The in
terests of all are united in this way.
Whatever helps one will help the
town, and all profit to some extent.
Plans should be laid to make
known to wider circle of people
the advantages of trading in Lees
burg. Many people who have not
been accustomed to come here much
for trading, would do so if they
fully realized what good stores we
have and how much effort will be
made to please them.

no DISASTERS IN YEAR
ENLIST RED CROSS AID
Nearly $4oo, 900 Spent in United
States - Greek Refugee
Work Completed.

For It's preparedness to render re.
lief through effective and generous aid
TO the sufferers from disaster the
American Red Cross is universally re.
garded as the one organization from
which response to appeal for help Is
immediate. In the last year, accord
ing to the annual report Of the Red
Cross, its disaster relief operations
were carried out in ITO localities In
the United States. This work, with
activities carried over from the prevl-
GUS year, required the expenditure in
the United States of 1891, 468.04 by
the American Red Cross, its Chapters
and Branches. In the emergency fol
lowing the defeat of the Greek forces
in Turkey and the burning Of the city
of Smyrna, which entailed the relief
Of nearly 100000 men, women and
children, Red Cross National Head
quarters expended $2,605, 696.09. The
food distributed in Greece aggregated
$4,000 tons; garments, 100000; blan-
kets, 1850; new shoes, 5000 pairs;
medical, hospital and sanitary sup
plies, 304 tons. In the feeding Of the
refugees there was listed upwards of
$4,000 children under three years OF
age.
The disasters In the United States
during the past year reported 24O per
sons killed, 991 injured, 1881 rem
dered homeless. The total property
loss was estimated at $20,710,000.
Relief of suffering caused by disas-
ters of such magnitude as to over
whelm the resources Of the communi
ties in which they occur is fundamen-
tai to the charter Of the American
Fed Cross. In addition to making ap-
propriations from its treasury and as
signing trained personnel to relief
work, the Red Cross In disaster cen
tralizes and makes more effective re.
lief funds and supplies contributed by
the country at large.
Since 1881 the Red Cross has ad-
ministered more than $20,000,O00 for
the single purpose Of disaster relief
That it may continue to accept the re
sponsibilities which grave emergen
cies place upon the American Red
Cross appeal is made for nation
wide renewal of membership during
the annual roll call, which opens on
Ar1nistice Day, November II, and
closes on Thanksgiving Day, Novem'
Der 20.

MAKES NEW KIND OF GLASS
Inventor Says 1t Is Stronger Than
Any Yet Made.

A new kind of glass, which, If not
actually unbreakable, is 50 tough that
it has been blown into a hollow sphere
and kicked about as a football without
breakage, has been discovered by DR..
Horak, a Czech engineer and inventor
When used in the form of tumbIers
the glass has successfully withstood
the squirting of cold water immedi-
ately after being heated to a point
where pieces of paper in the tunbler
were charred. While the inventor does
not claim that he has found the secret
of unbreakable glass, he does believe
he has found a way to make 1t pos
sess the greatest resisting power of
any glass so far known. 1t is admir-
ably suited to the making of thermos
bottles, which in so many cases have
been too fragile.-Scientif1c American.

U. S. CONSUL And BRIDE
HAVE HOME on WHEELS
American Rewlyweds Like Their
BOx.Car Dwelling While
Travelling in Turkey.

The only American representative
In far-off corner Of Asia is a young
Marylander, Charles Imbrle, Of Balti-
more. His duties include that Of con-
sui, trade commissioner, and counsel
or to thousands Of non-Moslems who
are not popular in Turkey at the mo
ment, and who believe any American
can perform miracles for them.
Mr.. Imbrle had been living a hand
to-mouth existence In the poverty
stlcEen city for more than a year, but
when he married Miss Katherine Gill
lesple of New York, director of the
Near East Relief Orphanage, recently,
he thought it would be well to go
house hunting.
AngOra, however, has what prob
ably Is the most acute housing short
age of any city In the world, hence
the young couple decided to set up
housekeeping in the only box car TO
let In town, and now the American
flag waves from its sliding door.
Although a bit cramped for room,
especially when company calls, the
American home on wheels Is the clean
est place In Angora. 1t stands on
railway siding and is always ready to
be coupled to a train for one of Mr.
Imbries trips of inspection to outly-
ing parts of Turkey. During these
JOURNEYS Mrs. Imbrie carries on her
hOusework as usual. In fact she finds
a certain advantage in being able to
take her house with her in her travels
with her husband, and says that she
will miss It when she returns to west
aln civilization

is such an ordinary occurrence, it is given scant
attention and is not considered important news"
Yet, should industry lag, which it sometimes does,
a mighty howl goes up all over the land; and among
the loudest howlers are the very people who pour
out their hard earned money In support Of just such
ENTERTAINMENT as prize fights.

Who Got the Worst of Itp

You know, there has been a lot OF talk about the
meaning of a former reliably Republican state like
Minnesota turning face about the way she did IN
the Magnus johnson senatorial election. Now and
then the best of them blow up. The Democrats
never dreamed of losing states like Missouri and
Kentucky, yet 1t happened to them, and all other
of the northern states at times thought reliably
Democratic, have been brought into the Republican

Done With Show Business

The two American Legion posts at Cheyenne are
through with carnivals and circus and other enter
tainment companies seeking to get behind such
a popular organization as the legion will be given
a chilly reception In the capital city in future.

tige to the organization and to overcome the general
dissatisfaction of the people.

posts called a joint session. and resolved never
again to become associated with travelling shows
or carnivals nor to permit their name to be en-
ployed in exploiting the people at any future time.
That the resolution was adopted without a dis
sentirg vote in either post shows how thoroughly
'~disgusted the Legionnaires are with the carnival
business.
