YOU PAY FOR WHAT YOU GET

Every individual making a purchase, whether it be cash Or credit, eventually pays for what he gets. He makes his own selec. tion, takes his choice and tll2n pays for it. The choice may be good, bad or indifferent, out 1t is bought and paid for and thele is no returning of the article If ter it has been used and found W Wlnting. And so it is in the af fairs of the city-the tax payer, the elector picks his candidates for city office and if his choice be good in the end, it is less eXpen- sive; if it is poor. the cost will be evident in the taxes declared and collected and in the amount oI money the town may be in debted to the banks.
 In the present city election are four men running for council rosition-Robert Allen, Charles Greenaa, incumbents and Chet Pechette and A. B Holt. There are only three vacancies to fill. One of these candidates vii: be an alSo-ran on Wednesday r,eXt while the other three men will sit in council and direct the affairs of the city for another term.
 The times confronting Peters Durg, the activities of the town calls for the best that the town can get A town that picks it's directors without thought to the serious phases of city life vii ray for it's choice in muddled af- fairs of the city; in the subordi mating of city affairs to private affairs, it is always the city's af fairs that are hurt. Therefore the electors cannot afford to se- >ect any candidate who by force of circumstances cannot be al free and independent agent working disinterestedly for the common good of the whole town
 Slackness, indifference, com promises in the selected civic leaders will not promise al healthy administration which ie ghat the city demands at all mes. Stop, and look over the candidates qualifications; lister to their program and their req sons for running for office; look the field over with the view tc selecting the one who will give to the city his best, undivided effort, and you will make nc mistake in your choice if you follow the dictates of your owr conscience.
 You pay for what you get and you get only what you pay for.

FOLLOWING
 RECOMMENDATION

Governor Parks has recon nended, along with MT. Breue- late commissioner of education that the office of commissions be taken out Of the hands of tn voters and placed in the hand of a commission with the govern or as it's head.
 Following right along this l'no of thought. why not have a com mission nominate and appoint the treasurer, auditor, delegate to Congress. secretary of the ter ritory and every other elective cfficc.
 History points to the fact that officers directly responsible to the people are more responsible to the will of the electorate and when under appointive commis- sions they lose sight of their re- responsibilities to the electorate and become tools and puppets of political machines.
 Mir. Breuer, who made a bid for the position when he went before the electorate last fall, shows poor form in declaring to the electorate that they do not nave sufficient intelligence to elect a commissioner of educa- tion. Removal of that office from elections and placing it in the hands of a commission does not remove it from politics not withstanding the recommends ions of Governor Parks and MT. Breuer.

interested, but seeing the ex-

rugs. and other articles and
talking with Miss Blake
herself was far more inter-

NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING

Newspaper reading is a
universal daily habit; news
paper advertising, therefore
reaches each day virtually
all who buy. Newspaper
advertising is the life-blood
of the local trade, because it
touches all consumer sources
in every community. 1t gives
the national advertiser the
same opportunity for COM
plete consumeC appeal in
a ny locality. Newspaper
advertising cuts selling costs
because it entails no waste
in locality of circulation.
Manufacturers use it to COW
er markets where it is profit
able to do business. News
paper advertising insures
you quick, thorough and
economical dealer distribu-
ton and dealer good will,
because retailers are willing
to sell the products advertis-
ed direct to their own custo-
mers. Newspaper advertis-
ing enables the manufacture
er to tell where their pro
duct may be bought. News
paper advertising can be
started or stopped over night
can be prepared between
two days to meet sudden de-
velopments and to obtain
immediate results. News,
paper advertising enables
the manufacturers to check
advertising results and costs
in every market which they
enter. Newspaper advertis
ing costs less than any kind
