Street Signs For
Kingston Twp.
Boy Scouts To Make
And Paint 174 Signs
Making and painting of street
signs is the current project of
Trucksville Boy Scouts.
Trucksville Troop 155, leader
Charles Lutsey, St. Therese’s Scouts,
leader John Butler, Shavertown
Scouts, leader Warren Daubert, are
collaborating on the making and
painting of 178 street signs at
Kingston Township High School.
Boy Scouts are aided and abetted
by the newly formed Mothers’ Aux-
illiary, chairman Mrs. Charles G.
Perkins, Carverton road.
The original plan took in the
Trucksville intersections only, but
has been expanded to cover the en-
tire Kingston Tdwnship area. Ma-
terials on hand, a model sign 22”
x3%”, white ground with black
lettering has ben made up and ap-
proved, and the project is ready to
roll.
Joseph Rakshys, instructor in
manual training will supervise the
sign making during shop hours at
Kingston Township High School,
Thomas Jenkins, also of the faculty,
will assist.
Township Supervisors express
willingness to go along with the
plan, erecting supports for the
signs at each intersection.
This is a civic betterment pro-
ject of importance. It embraces not
only the original expenditure of
time and, money for the actual mak-
ing of the signs, but future upkeep,
repainting when necessary, replace-
ment in cease of damage.
The main burden will fall upon
Troop 155, Trucksville, as Shaver-
town and St. Therese’s troops have
very few boys of high-school age
enrolled.

Mi. Evergreen Stables
Loses Yearling Filly
Mountain Evergreen Stables
owned by Mr. and Mrs. William
Stoeckert at West Dallas is greatly
saddened by the loss of a year old
filly who died last Saturday. She
was only sick two days and cause
of sickness is unknown; however it
is believed she had suffered a head
injury a couple months ago which
developed into some internal
trouble causing her to be anemic
and stopping proper circulation of
blood.
She was out of a mare by the
great sire Noble Kalarama who was
Grand Champion Fine Harness
Stallion at Kentucky State Fair and
is the sire of many famous champ-
ions.
Mountain Evergreen Stables had
great hopes for the future of this
filly as she was a top show pros-
pect with her beautiful head and
neck and extreme all around high
action. They thought her the great-
est foal they ever raised.
Her dam is due to foal again the
end of this month.

Addresses Lions
Named First Honorary
Member of New Club
The Harveys Lake Lions Club
enjoyed an address by Julius Long
Stern at the club’s bi-monthly
meeting on Wednesday night.
Mr, Stern spoke on his travels in
the Argentine. His speech concerned
the manners and mores of the
people of the Argentine, the econ-
omic aspects of the country and its
political organization. Particular
emphasis was placed on the dicta-
torial control of the Argentine by
its President Peron.
The board of directors of the
club, with unanimous approval of
its members invited Mr. Stern to
be its first honorary member. Mr.
Stern was pleased to accept the
honor.
The club is making plans for
decoration of its float for the Back
Mountain Easter Parade.

ternational and state charters at a
Charter Night dinner party to be
held Wednesday, April 12th at
Brokenshire’s Harveys Lake Hotel.

ladies will enjoy dinner and danc-
ing.

Flood Suggests
High Command's
Use of Mines
Congressman Daniel J. Flood con-
tacted the Secretary of Defense
recently in regard to the Defense
chiefs program for the establish-
ment of an alternative high com-
mand post, underground, in the
event Washington and the Penta-
gon ever come under enemy attack.
The letter of the Congressman
states:
“I would like to suggest that a
study be made of the advantages
Luzerne County, Pennsylvania,
could provide such a post. I do
not know, of course, what require-
ments have been established for a
nroposed site, but Luzerne County
has numerous mines that might
vrove feasible; a fine system of
highways and railroad lines; several
airports; efficient power and tele-
phone service; an abundance of
pure water; adequate room for dis-
persion and concealment of sur-
face facilities, as well as a loyal
population, a large number of
whom unfortunately are presently
unemployed.”
The Secretary of Defense replied
today as follows:
“Thank you for your letter sug-
gesting an underground command
post. I am transmitting this infor-
mation to the group which keeps
such matters under study and I am
sure they will give it full consider-
ation.
“I appreciate your interest and
thoughtfulness in sending me this
information.”

because he had not written them
and had not seen them before
coming to the meeting).
The interrogators tried in every
way to ferret some definite infor-
mation on the Association to take
back to their clubs. Their question-
ing established the fact that to date
no democratic Back Mountain Com-
munity Building Association exists,
no authorized meetings have
been held since World War II,
no elections have ever been held
and no recorded minutes are in ex-
istence.
After this revelation, Atty. Mitch-
ell Jenkins rose to his feet and
moved that all representatives re-
turn to their clubs and recommend
that their presidents appoint one
authorized representative to attend
a meeting within thirty days to be
called by Dr. Schooley as organiza-
tion chairman.
At that time, it was indicated, the
organization can start from the bot-
tom—with a representative elec-
tion of a new chairman, new com-
mittees and new or revised bona-
fide by-laws.
The meeting closed with every
one interested in a Back Mountain
Community Center and confident it
can be accomplished once it is
started off on a new sound basis.
Attending were: Edward J. Kel-
ler, Daniel Robinhold, Frank Nelms,
Emily D. Nelms, C. W. Lee, Mrs.

Babson Discusses Stocks
(Continued from Page One)
was almost unknown. As Henry
Ford was the father of mass pro-
duction, so my friend Cyrus Curtis
was the father of national adver-
tising. Mr. Curtis had three rules
for successful national advertising.
These were:— ;
(1) The ads must tell what the
product can do for the readers.
(Most of the advertising of that
day merely glorified the concern
doing the advertising.) (2) The ads
must be of short sentences and
words of one or two syllables.
(This rule developed experts in
advertising. There then were very
few advertising agencies) (3) The
products advertised must be
worthy, obtainable everywhere and
sell at a stable price.
Continuous Advertising Necessary
As I read these new financial ad-
vertisements, I think they conform
to Mr. Curtis’ rules (1) and (2).
They surely have a “new look”
and if continually improved, should
bring good results. ‘“But’—as Mr.
Curtis would say, “advertising to
be successful must be continuous.
Millions can be lost in advertising
as well as made by getting dis-
couraged and curtailing just before
reaching the jack pot.”
Two Important Warnings
Mr. Curtis’ rule (3) meant that
the product must have a “stable
market and, if possible, a fixed
price”. Stock Exchange firms can-
not promise a fixed price for their
wares. But they can talk only of
security, income and maketability,
making no reference to ‘profit pos-.
sibilities”, I go further and say
(and this is very important) to
make this new advertising cam-
paign a permanent success, the
Stock Exchange: MUST STABILIZE
PRICES and eliminate the big gyra-
tion for which the Exchange has
always been blamed. This, more-
over, -can be done.
The other MUST is that these
firms cannot succeed by advertising
only in the big city newspapers.
The idle money awaiting safe in-
vestment with good income can
best be found in small cities and
towns. Even magazines cannot
reach these ‘grass roots” pros-
pective investors. Women can be
reached by magazines, but the men
who control the family investment
policy can best be reached through
small daily and weekly newspapers.
Township P.T.A. Meeting
The monthly meeting of the Par-
ent-Teachers’ Association of Dallas
Township High School, was held
last Monday night in the school
auditorium. The presiding officer
was Clarence Laidler and the meet-
Raymond Kuhnert. —
Many important announcements
were made, and business trans-
actions were carried out, and ap-
proved. Included in the evening's
program, was a hobby show, with
many interesting collections sup-
plied by: Mrs. John Girvan, Lewis
Coskey, Mrs. Arthur Newman,
James Kozemchak, Reverend Har-
old Deisher, Mrs, Robert K. His-
lop Sr., and Miss Betty Perschau.
