regular midwinter decline in employ
ment in the middle west, the month
ly survey of Illinois. Indiana. Michi
gan. Ohio, and Wisconsin, just issued
by Barney Cohen. district director Of
the United States employment serv-
Ice, says.
The January sag in industry, though
"quite general" proved slighter than
many were anticipating, and although
the number Of unemployed in the
large cities was increased by an in
flux of migratory workers, industry as
general rule is beginning to meet
the problem, according to the sur
yey.
The situation is described as fol-
lows:
Indiana-While the employment
situation Is not bad, calls for labor,
except skilled, are slight
Michigan-There is a slight surplus
of common labor created by laborers
being released from road and build
ton of industrial activity. The farm
labor situation in Michigan is far
from satisfactory, shortage Of farm
help still prevails.
Ohio-Employment appears on an
upward trend. The present outlook
for building is favorable.

BERLIN, February 19.-Historic
Precedents which might suggest the
correct procedure by the German gov
eminent in the event OF former Presi-
dent Wilson's death, were eagerly
sought by the legal experts of the
German foreign Office when the first
inquiry of DR.. Wiedfeldt. German am
bassador to the United State. reached
wilhelmstrasse concerning the course
he should pursue.
The official archives revealed the
fact that no official recognition was
taken by the German government Of
TIE death OF Grover Cleveland. as the
for President at his demise was
private citizen. This parallel, ac-
coroing to Information given the
reichstagS committee on foreign re-
1atioGS by Chancellor StreSsemann.
served the German government on
the occasion of Mr.. Wilson's death.
and 1t was only after the news of
American impa thence felt over DR..
Weidfeldts failure to half-mast the
German flag was received in Berlin
that revised orders were dispatched
to Washington.
Apparently. the chancellor said
these revised orders arrived too late
to correct the early impression Gre
ated by the absence Of d mourning

staRnation Unnatural

Growth is a natural process stagnation is unnatural. A city is like a river-a river gets help from it's tributaries, that is why it IS so majestic. Advertising should be the means of making people want thing and wanting it badly.
 "A city should analyze it's re- sources and take a more accurate aim and shoot at something.
 "A good name-Putnam has a good name. It means something to the people of the town. 1t means something to the people around and you can get people coming here. Gather your points together and hammer things home-that is the only way of making an impression. Make people buy by hammering.
 Faint heart neier won fair lady You can't advertise with a faint heart. You must have work CTS to push things through. Set backs only increase a fighters de- termination. The fellow that holds back, who does not cooperate, who is like the Jew who was out in boat and didn't care when the boat was sinking because t didn't belong to him. does not help. Any city can have stores. banks, etc. but doing the natural thing is to attract to it people who will buy Hammer the ideas and tell everybody about 1t and how you are doing it.
 Putnam should have a slogan; the town should be sold on that slo- gan.
 Be noted for some .ng; do something.
 Trade Mark City
 Trade mark your city-eall Put nam something. call it something and holler it from the housetops so that everybody will hear It isn't what you say but how often you say 1t that counts. 4 revival Is needed. Get together everybody with the same object to aim at. It is just like a revival. Stir up enthusiasm, gather momentum and convince af- terwards.
 Take pride in your city. Have good signs.
 The sum and substance of this is confidence. in the town, yourself, in business, etc. If you have confi- denee you will inspire confidence in others. Get confidence and hold it. Wake up Putnam, go after it and you will get it"

NATIONAL FATHER AND
SON WEEK. DETERMINED

A construction thought projected
by one of the staff members of the
Providence, Rhode Island, Y. M. C.
A. just seventeen years ago has
steadily expanded and developed into
an ''Institution for Cod, and
FATHER AND SON WEEK is now
nationally observed.
Aside from the SPLENDID spirit of
happy, boy-like, good fellowship
now more apparent as result of
the always popular father and son
supper meetings, the movement has
been responsible for the develop
ment of new relationships and bene-
fits. Its growth has been gradual
and accumulative, and far-reach-
ing in its effect as source of power
for good. Speaking generally,
DAD has found new perspective.
His attitude in respect to the i'm
portance of his boy has changed.
SON. as companion and a
better coach" and captain" than
he was before.
Throughout Burlington County
there will be numerous Father and
Son Banquets promoted by the CO.
operation of Churches, Sunday
School district organizations, the Y.
M. c. A. and schools corporations.
Specific suggestions for promoting
Father and Son Dinner have been
issued by the County Y. M. c. A.
at Mount Holly. They are also
prepared to meet the demand for
special Father and Son song sheets,
the use of which greatly enhances
the benefit and enjoyment of such
an evening together.

On DemonstratiQss Garage Corner
Oak and Cooper Streets, This
City, by Fred H. Meench.

The Chevrolet Motor Company an
nounces new model to its line the
Chevrolet coach, which will be the

other Chevrolet closed models, and
is finished in black with gold stripe
the same on the Chevrolet sedan.
The door on each side is excep-
tionally large allowing for easy
entrance and exit, while the wide
windows, two on each side, afford an
extreme range of vision during all
seasons and refreshing ventilation in
warm weather. The rear quarter
windows are the same width as the
door windows.
The interior of the coach is large
and roomy, with the drivers seat
stationary and folding seat to the
right Of the driver. The rear seat
across the back has ample rooms for
three.
The seats and cushions are uphol-
stored in striped taupe wool cloth,
while the sides, doors and head-lin-
ing are in a notified taupe of the
same material. There is floor car
pet to match.
Door windows, as we'll as side
windows are raised and lowered by
Ternsted window regulators. There
is a dome light in the car. The rear
window in the car is wide and deep
and equipped with satin curtain.
A metal sun visor comes as stand
ard equipment.
