One of the objects of the Mer- chants’ and Manufacturers’ association is to correct this evil, for evil it is without any equivocation. W. H. Williams, the traffic manager of the association, who was in Patton recently, made this fact very plain to a “Yiumber of the business men here whom he met and some of his disclosures were sensational in the extreme. It is expected that about a quarter of a thousand members of the association will be here next Tuesday and every business man in town should make it a point to meet with them and discuss matters that ought to be equally ad- vantageous. Patton cannot afford to take a back seat in this matter. Other towns are making preparations to give the mem- bers of the association a fitting recep- tion and the business men of this place owe it to themselves to see that they are in the vanguard of the procession.
