Joe" Foisey Favors
 Newspaper Ad.
Former Putnam Boy Got Early Training in Local Stores.-Has
 Been Manager and Owner

Joseph Foisey, a former Putnam boy, son of Frank Foisey of this city, is now sales promoter in the mid dle west. Mir. Foisey began his busi- ness career in Putnam, first in the store of The Church Clothing Com pany and then in the store of A. c. Luke & Go. He then went west and located in Denver. He has since been manager and owner of several different stores. Mir. Foisey is firm believer in the newspaper as an adyer- Using medium. After an interview with a representative of the Delta, Ohio, Atlas" the paper says:
 J. C. Foisey. the man who is engi- neering the ssock disposal sale for Huit's clothing store, has solid back ground of merchandising and adver- tising experience. He has operated his own clothing store in Peoria, Ill.,, for many years and is now connected with one of the leading sales-conduct- ing organizations, the C. s. Norton Co.,, of Chicago.
 Mir. Foisey who has very pleas ing personality, has won many friends here during his stay which termin~ ates Saturday. He has turned out an immense amount of work during his campaign in the Huit store.
 His long and varied experience in the field of selling have taught Mir Foisey a number of things concerning advertising. He expresses his adver- tising ideas thusly:

Public Support

There can be no question but what public sentiment is back of this move ment in the country today, and that organizations having to do with the promotion of civic matters and others having to do with the promotion and execution of highway projects are talk ing the lead in an educational and legislative program.
 A good illustration is the fact that this council is out to push the project in all the New England States, and another that the American Associa- tion of State Highway Officials of the United States have recently appoint ed a permanent committee on road side Identification, comprising ten members representing ten different states. New Hampshire, Massachu- setts and Connecticut are holding three of the memberships.
 As we consider the magnitude of this work we wonder where to begin, and I am reminded of a story about small village. The people of the community for a long time discussed the advisability of making physical improvements in the village and at last called public meeting. A chair man was appointed and different ones
