HERE and
THERE
By w. M. Smith


Some of our readers have some
queer ideas of matters connected
with our newspaper; ideas / should
like to correct both for their ad-
vantage and our own. For instance.
We are often requested to 'be
sure and put this on the front
page"
We sell our patrons a paper Of
six pages and we have yet to hear
of any of them tearing off the front
page and throwing the rest away.
No, indeed! They keep the other
five and read them too. Again, if
we could print all our news on one
page we would not go to the
trouble and expense of printing five
more. But we can't. AS a matter
of fact we usually receive enough
to fill two more pages than we do
and you may be sure that every
word is read by somebody. So the
interest your article develops is
far more important than the place
it occupies in the paper.
Some folks turn first to the edi-
tOrials; some to their favorite
cOlumnist: some to the society
page; wise ones study the adver-
tisements; but none of them are
satisfied to read the front page and
quit.
Speaking of advertisements,
many of our readers know that
when we state that newspaper ad-
vertisement is the best to be had
we are doing more than merely
boosting our business; we are
stating a fact susceptible of easy
proof. A number Of recent events
have fallen fiat because their pro-
motors failed to recognize and
apply this truth.
Announce an event at your
church and all who are present and
are listening at the moment will
learn of it; announce it at all the
churches at the same time and a
larger group who attend on that
day will perhaps learn of it. An
nOunce it on a thousand hand bills;
half of them will be destroyed un-
read, the other 500 read and
dropped then and there, and pos
sibly forgotten Immediately. Tell
it on posters hung in windows and
on walls of business houses and
only those whose business calls
them there can possibly read the
notice. But announce it through
the columns of the newspaper, and
if that paper be the Spokesman or
the Recorder your message reaches
1000 readers.
While no paper would guarantee
that all who read of the coming
event will attend it, it is true that
the probabilities of more people at
tending because of the large num-
Der reached is so easily seen as to
place beyond comparison this form
of spreading information. And the
cost, as measured in terms of re-
suits, (and this is the only measure
that counts) is far, far less!

Paper to Give
Picnic for
Many Families

Labor Day, the seventh of Sep
TENDER, is the one day set aside by
government decree for rest and
recreation of all those who labor
throughout the year. Themselves
and their families usually fill a
basket with good things to eat and
HE themselves to one of the lakes
to fish, to eat, to rest and to play.
This year many families have had
no work or, if work has been given,
it has not been enough to enable
them to afford an outing and to let
their children have the good time
all little ones expect and should
have on this day.
For that reason the publisher of
the Recorder and Spokesman will
seek to supply the need.
Games, Free Refreshments
On. Labor Day this publication
will sponsor a picnic and outing to
which all the families of the IN
employed, the families of those who
have had but little employment and
all their children and dependents
are invited for a day of recreation
with everything needed for enjoy
ment furnished free.
There will be games of all kinds
for the children and for the grown
ups too; free barbecue with lots of
iced drinks, pop, ice cream and
lemonade.

BANK REFORMS

Efforts to mould current diver

practical plan for a depression
proof" system of money and bank
ing will be made at forum of the
country's leading economists, bank
ers, insurance executives, and in
dustrialistS, to be held in New York
on December 18 and 10, under the
sponsorship of the Society for Sta
bility in Money and Banking,
according to DR.. Joseph E. Good
bar, president of the Society.
The board of governors of the
society, which includes some of
the outstanding financial authori-
ties in the country, is sending invi-
tations to several thousand experts.
Both large and small institutions
in banking and insurance, econom-
lists. and various associations, will
be included, in order to obtain a
representative cross section of cur
rent thinking on financial and
banking problems.
Out of the conflicting theories
and opinions held by various
schools of economic thought, the
society hopes, at the conference,
to develop a specific program for
banking and monetary reform,
for submission to Congress, as
basis for appropriate legislation
to bring about improvement in
the present system.
DR.. Goodbar stated:
"The public feels definitely
that banking reform of some
kind is needed, and this makes
1t particularly important that
SOundly wOrked-Out proposals be
given serious consideration"
