sHUN THE FIDDLER

The summer season. now at hand, brings with it an economic i'll that annually takes toll of thou sands os i'll gained dollars. It is the itinerant pedler, the house to house door bell ringer and those of his kind who travel from place to place plying their trade and imposing on the credulity of the minimizing, offering bargains in this and that which most always turn out to be inferior merchan- disc sold at higher prices or in short measure. It is we'll to be- ware of these fellows and the plaus- ible stories that they tell to engage the interest and confidence of their prospects. {:
 They are of many varieties and with as many kinds of nerchan- disc to sell.
 Inferior articles of many kinds are peddled about hith.f and yor uuTluB Iuc OuMuCI A-HIAo. NC automobile has been a great aid to this kind of chicanery for after he has landed few gu'lible pro- spects days journey will take him far away and beyond the reach of the buyer who discovers that he has been victimized
 What better insurance can there be than buying from the home town merchant? If for any req son the article proves unsatisfac- tory he is ready and willing to correct the trouble and satisfy his customer Not so with the peddler he is gone tomorrow or yet to- day if the chase gets too hot. He is not seeking to satisfy lhe GUS tomer-he is after money alone. The home town merchant stakes his reputation and his success on his record for fair and honest deal ing. He may be found at his place of business day in and day out, year in and year out. There is nothing elusive about him.
 When folks want support ard contributions for this and that. they know where to find him and he gives willingly and generously. Did anyone ever hear of the iti- nerant merchant contributing a single cent for the advancement of a local cause There is one real way of insuring good goods at reasonable prices, one way of get ting good value for the dollar ex- pended and that is to buy of the reputable home town merchant and printer

 Something comparable is hap pening CT is about to begin to hap pen to-day in American commun- ities, which do not. but if they would might, get air lines. To-day as then, while some citizens are hustlng. others are pooh-poohing. neglecting or, with their hammers out. knocking the new.
 Which of course is nonsense. The ocean has been crossed by air in both directions, speed hitherto in conceivable has been achieved over land. Month by month the use of air transport for mail. commodi- ties and passengers increases. The Air Age is HERE.
 Time was when many a man and woman shuddered at thought of the great hazards of fast stage coach. When the railway came. thousands honestly believed it to be mechanical devilishness. The present-day protests of the non progressive taxpayer when his all ert brother gets up at the meeting of the Board of Aldermen to pro- pose an appropriation for loc- al airport is evidence of simi- lar misapprehension. But the se- cret of Americas success has been that the non-progressive citizen has been overruled.
 Modern communities which lack leadership will suffer as others lacking it have suffered in the past. - Edward Marsha. in Forbes Magazine tN.Y)
