MOON DOES NOT CAUSE
WET OR DRY WEATHER

One of the most commonest anC
likewise one Of the most unreas-
enable weather superstitions, say:
the Weather Bureau of the United
States Department of Agriculture
is the belief that if the horns Of
the new crescent moon tip down
ward, it is a "wet'' moon, por-
tending rain.
The position of the lunar cres-
cent depends upon the angle that
the moons path makes with the
horizon, and on any given date
it is always the same in places
having the same latitude. If this
weather sign were trustworthy,
the same kind of weather, either
dry or rainy, would prevail on any
given date throughout a belt of
latitude extending entirely around
the globe. Of course there is no
such uniformity of weather in re-
to latitude. In the tenn
perate zones, where the weather
travels from west to east, the
greatest contrasts of wet and dry
weather conditions are likely to
be found along parallels of lati-
tude rather than meridians of
longitude.
Near the equator the position
Of the young moon never makes
angle of more than 80 degrees
with the horizon, and it is gener-
ally in an ever more nearly hori-
position, so that in a part

papers to print editorials appealing to community
loyalty. The Courier has always been willing to
DO this, but we have a suspicion that often it
works IN the wrong direction, TO some extent at
least and defeats It's purpose
We believe that the average resident is lOvaI
to his home community. He prefers to buy there
and if he does not, there is some good reason for
it. Questioning his loyalty by continual preach
ments may arouse in him just spirit of anita
gOnism. 1t is what the professors call negative
psychology"
1t is fact that no buy-at-home campaign will
get far unless the merchants do their part. If
they have the goods and are prepared to sel.them
at competitive prices, they should advertise the
fact. The campaign must start with the mer-
chants themselves. Editorial assistance is nec-
essary, but more can be accomplished in the adver-
tising columns than anywhere else. Good mer-
camille service and good merchandise well adver-
tised are the best buy-at-hOme agents and make
all other campaigns unnecessary. Without the
merchandise, the service, and the advertising
there is little use in spending money on boosting,
drum beating, and sentimental appeals.
What does advertising accomplish? It Suggests,
reminds and informs the buyer; tells him what
goods are in the market, where they can be OBJ.
tanned, and at what prices It is as much serv-
Ice as clerk attention, credit, delivery, or any
thing else. 1t is. more important than prices
We believe the price question is one that generally
is Over-rated We have noticed that good adver-
tisers generally get fair prices
When we pick up a newspaper that is filled
with attractive advertisements we need not be
told that its town. is prosperous. We do not
waste time reading its editorial columns for buy
at-hOme appeals. The appearance of the publica-
tion proclaims that such appeals are necessary
that the newspaper and the merchants it serves
have adopted the only practical and efficient
method of keeping trade at home-effective, con.
sistent continuous advertising.
