Attorney Valentine is quite satisfactory. In this appointment we most highly commend our Governor for his appoirtment of an at- torney who qualifies primarily because of his legal ability and dig- nity rather than because of his political power. Attorney Valen- tine has legal ability. Some time ago he was appointed as one the six leading attorneys in the State of Pennsylvania on a com- mittee for the legal aspects of the revision of Pennsylvania State aws. This appointment was considered quite honorary because he whole of Luzerne County in criminal and civil cases. He is very ably representing the county in it’s fight against the coal companies in their battle for the reduction of assessed coal valu- ations. Attorney Valentine’s ability is further attested through his writings. His authoritative text books on the legal phases of the liquor problem and his text on election practises are writings of decided merit. As a bit of human interest although in no way thatsoever connecting with the legal ability of Attorney Val- entine is the location of his office. The owners of the Coal Ex- hange building may soon find it more profitable to substitute for the name of Coal Exchange that of Attorneys’ Building. The building has housed the legal office of Attorneys Fine, Coughlin and McLean, all judges now, as well as the office of ex- J udge Fell. Since we have as judge a man of such ability and poise we have every right to expect and believe that we receive a very fair and mpartial administering of justice. En [GREATER WILKES-BARRE’S REVAMPED CHAMBER OF COMMERCE ; The proposed plan of the Citizens Committee of Wyoming : Valley calls for a lot of things. .Scrapping the name of the Cham- ber of Commerce although very admittingly not scrapping it’s many good points; calls for some cash—quite a bit of cash. Some ash to be paid into a revolving fund. This fund to be used as a oan to needy spgall industries in our vally and to proposed new in- Tes. Lne Pe in turn to in reality be working capital loan not just a commercial loan. The banks can finance the com- cial needs of our industries, they cannot always finance the WoRking capital needs. The amount of cash virtually demanded 4 this phase of the new program virtually amounts to one-quar- ter of a million dollars, no small sum in itself but maybe entirely too small for what is expected of it. But this is not all the cash required. Takes about $50,000.00 a year to operate and execute ‘these proposed new plans. The present budget of the chamber of commerce calls for some $19,000.00 whereas it was double that ‘ten years ago. With our needs all but doubled over those of ten years ago it is not to be wondered that the Chamber of Commerce ‘was so weak. ' Relatively as of ten years ago. it was only 25% as strong. It had not kept up and as such follows the road of elim- “ination. When these sling are perfected and only partly executed Greater Dallas will have been very profitably helped. According- ly we need to keep informed, and to become a part of Greater ~ Wyoming Valley or to be Greater Dallas. In either case we must receive a considerable amount of help. WE have many very beau- tiful homes “UP HERE” and many more equally beautiful spots on which to build some more homes. Maybe we have two or three ‘very appropriate small factory sites, inexpensive in their purchase ‘price comparatively and yet possessing attractive merit for a new small industry. : Watch ie follow carefully this new movement on foot for ‘the Chamber of Commerce.

You can’t really “tell the world.” The manufacturer himself is in the same fix. He can’t tell the world. His salesmen can’t. His dealers can’t. And the world ought to be told. It wants to know. . It wants to know what’s new, what’s not only © good, but better than the best; or cheaper; or more durable; or more useful; or just plain more fun. Advertising “tells the world” today. Back of every advertisement is somebody, perhaps a whole group of somebodies, full of enthusiasm just as you are when you discover something that makes things easier or better for you. They are telling just as many people as they can reach in the world in person. But that is only a tiny fraction of those they speak to in advertising. 9 4%, 9, * RRND * * * * * Ps oO oP, bo? 0? 4% Os 00% 000 0 0 $0400, ($0909 0492, 4 * 0, 0. OO, 0.
