UPBUILDING THE TOWN.
By Advertising In Barometer of Lo
cal Industry, the Newspaper.
If a member of your family died,
would you print the resolutions on n
billboard 7
If your wife entertained, would
you send an account of It to the
theatre program man?
You would send such Items to a
newspaper, wouldn't you?
Then why don't you put your
advertisements In a newspaper?
Every man who uses a billboard
is adding to nature faking.
Every dollar spent in a theatre
program, in a register. In a directory
or in a handbill is a legitimate dol
lar taken away from the newspapers
of your town.
The newspapers build your town.
Why not help build up the newspa
pers? There is no better advertise
ment In the world for a town than a
good newspaper. A newspaper Is the
barometer of the town's industry.
Show" us a good nowspaper, full of
advertising, and we will show you a
good town, full of live merchants.
Billboards are an eyesore: hand
bills are a nuisance; theatre pro-
A UDITOR'S NOTICE.

The undersigned, auditor, ap

his appointment on
THURSDAY, APR. 17, at 10 a. m.

grams are worthless; hotel registers,
from an advertising standpoint, are
ridiculous.
Newspapers are town builders,
town advertisers, fortune makers,
news disseminators, sermon deliv
erers, prosperity forecasters. They
are a necessity, not a luxury. They
'must be maintained. Without them
we would retrograde to the med
iaeval days.
Don't patronize them from a char
itable standpoint. Patronize them
because they deliver the goods that
is, if they are the right kind.
Cut out the foolishness and work
for the upbuilding of your town and
state by upbuilding your newspa

Honesdale Lad Chnnges Ills Mind
About Quitting Base Ball, and
Reported to Youngstown.
Fred Schuerholz, of this place,
known In base ball as Pitcher Sherry
has signed his contract and reported
to the Youngstown team, Central
league. Fred made an effort to get
with the Utica team, having tried to
buy his own release after Manager
O'Neill had offered two pitchers for
him and failed in the deal. Sherry
for a time threatened to quit baso
ball unless he was given a chance
to get away from Youngstown and
catch on with a State league team,
but he has since reconsidered his ac-cislon.
Sherry is one of the best curve
ball pitchers in the minor leagues
and did so well in his first season in
organized base ball 1910 that he
was drafted by Washington Amerl
cans.

In pastors, but one of the changes

departure will be regretted exceed
ingly in social and religious circles.
His unique personality won for him
the appointment to the Chaplaincy of
the State Hospital at Farviow which
position he filled very credibly. The
best wishes for success go with Rev.
