FALLING DOWN A LITTLE
This Won't Do---If You Want the Clock You
Must Boost The Fund---Some Pleas
ing Contributions.
THE CLOCK OF MY OLD HOME
TOWN.

THE CLOCK OF MY OLD HOME
TOWN
Please accept my donation
For the clock. the best in the nation,
And soon may its hands, high above
ground,
Continue their motion around,
Just to hear the old clock strike,
To Ellsworth l would hike,
But, alas, it's my fate,
To live far from the Pine Tree State.
For years this clock in the tower
Has chimed out the hour;
Fen now, | hear it, as of yore-
One-two--three--fo
Good luck to the old clock, and to all,
And by the time the leaves begin to
fall,
Coverns all the ground,
| hope the hands will be flying around.
Julia b. Halleron.
1922 w. Elsmere Place.
San Antonio, Texas.
The contributions to the clock
fund this week amount to $57.
This is a good showing, but is a con-
siderable falling off from the past
two weeks. We must do better than
this. If we want the clock we must
get behind this project a little
harder If you have done your bit,
urge your neighbor to do his.
Our out-of-town friends are doing
nobly Honolulu, Texas, California,
Minnesota, and other nearer states,
have been heard from this week.
The clock fund needs, just as this
good country of ours needs, more
such families as that of Harry c.
Austin, who brought in this week a
little contribution of $S-Mr. and
Mrs. Austin and six children. Isn't
that fine!
Another contribution has senti-
ment attached to it, Mrs. Lillian
Perkins Weaver sends in one dol
lar bill that was given her by her
father thirty ago. She had
kept the identical bill all these years
and now gives it toward the clock
so that, as she says, when | hear
it strike | can think of him." That s
the right spirit.
Charles P. DeLaittre of Atkin,

recollections of the old clock, as.
with a fair wind, we could hear it's

New York, during the last week,
was brou ght to realize as it never
has befo. the stimulating effect of
newspaper advertising on all lines
OF business, when their advertising
in the daily newspapers was cut off
because of the pressmen's strike. OF
course the large department stores
We're the greatest losers, some of
them reporting such loss in bust
ness that they could have dispensed
with rs per cent of their sales force.
What is true OF New York IL true in
lesser degree of Ellsworth and every
trading center Ellsworth has some
good advertisers, and more and more
of its business men are beginning to
realize that it pays to advertise
Largely a result of this growth of
local advertising, we believe, is the
improvement of business, in ELS
worth he past few years. OF course
every man in business, even the non
advertiser gets the benefit to more
or less degree of the advertising done
by others through the general slim
ulation of business, but the consis-
tent ana persistent advertiser SeJS
the cream. Direct results from ad-
vertising are often hard to trace, but
we could tell YOU OF men in ELS
worth, slow 70 believe that adyertis-
Ing paid, who, after watching their
trade barometer, volume OF business,
respond TO ADVERTISING, have become
thorough believers in newspaper
space as profitable investment
These men are helping Ellsworth by
stimUlatins business all along the
street
