To you, the business personreading this, who have valueto offer this community-thesecolumns are open for use. I fyou seriously desire the goodwill and patronage of the unusually high percentage ofthis community's families whosubscribe for "Our Town,"you will make plans NOW fora sustained advertising campaign in this paper.

It is our belief that the reading public of this communityhas the fundamenta l intelligence to make a correct decision when adequately informed about a product, aprice, a degree of quality, or aproposition .... And it is theexperience of many of our advertisers (names on request)over a period of years, thatconsistent advertising of goodservices and merchandise hasbrought enough business' tomore than justify the purchaseof advertising space in thispaper.

And Why . . . .

We have reason to believe thatthe only business person in thiscommunity who should notadvertise is the one who hasnothing to offer in the way ofservice, or who cannot makegood. . . , It has been observedthat we are living so fast, andchanging so fast and there areso many of us, t ha t he whodoes not advertise is left by thewayside.

business people with commodi-ties and services to se ll shouldread this message:

readers of this paper are requested andim'ited to read the advertisements thatappear in it:

" O U R T O W N " - P ub l i sh e d by the L IVINGST ON PUBLISHING COMPANY

It is, therefore, to your interest, as we see it, to readand to consider on its true merits the advertising thatappears in this paper.

These advertisements constitute a wide range ofbusiness enterprises-reliable ones, with whom you canwell afford to deal. The business person who does notadvertise either is not keen about gaining your patronage, or is so unbusinesslike that he ignores modern merchandising methods, and is satisfied with the extent ofhis business and is not concerned about holding yourgood-will and patronage . . . It seems reasonable topoint out t ha t the business house tha t does advertise,consistently, is well-established, has values and serviceswell worth advertising-and is anxious to win and tohold your good-will and your patronage.

In this community there are business houses able togive you friendly, neighborly value for your money ina fairly wide range of commodities and services. News-and we use the word "news" advisedly-of thesebusiness folk appears in this paper each week, in advertisements tha t are made to look neat, attrac tive andinteresting. Supplementing this news of local businesshouses, there appear advertisements of others, along theMain Line and in Philadelphia.

. . . Most o f the commodities you purchase wereadvertised, or you would not have known about theirvalue and quali ty. Tooth paste, flour, cigarettes, cars,refrigeration, heating appliances and fuel, furniture,breakfast cereals, shaving cream, razors, soaps, perfumes, radios, electric appliances-the very clothes youwear would not have been purchased so carefully, economically and well, had you not first become interestedin them as a result of reading advertisements.

It is the belief of the management of this community weekly that i t would give its subscribers onlyhal f a service i f NO advertising appeared.

What more could be askedofa washer?Loaded with a typical familywash, a regular modelof th e Laundry Queen was started November 29,1927, and allowed to continuewashing until December 26,1929-16,000 hours! Allowingfor a three-hour washing period each week, this meansthe Laundry Queen did ahundred years of familywashing without stopping. No oiling either.

GIVES S UC C E S S RULES ICiting H. G. 'Vells' definition of Isuccess, "the r at io bet wee n w ha t a

man is lind what he docs," 'VilliamSmedley, secretary of the Retai l Mer chants' Assoc iat ion of Pennsylvania,outlined his ideas on what makes asuccessful businessman and some obs tacles to sUCCes.

The talk was given at a luncheonmeeting of the Ardmore Chamber ofCommerce at the ! lIasonic Building,Ardmore recently. It was the lastof t he chamber meetings unti l fall.

"The c ha ll en ge of today can bemet," !If r. Smedley said, "b y intelligenteffort. Competition is greatly over- IellJphasized, I t is one of the bestforces in business. It makes the successful business man. Th e independen t llJerchant, con tr ar y t o many rumors, is not ou t, h e is on the rise."

I 'ersel"\ 'el 'ance, faith and couragewere cited by the speaker as the essentials to succes, Perseverance inwork, faith in the communi ty and people, and courage to carryon.

As regards the last factor, newspapers are the best medium, thespeaker stated. Care should be used,Mr . Smedley s ai d, in the preparat ionof copy. He also advised advertisingmes sage s f or ! ll onday, Tuesday and' Vedn esday, s ay in g t ha t people willcome to the stores of their own accordt he l at te r p ar t of t he wee k.A pessimist was defined by thespeaker as a man who se es in everyopportunity a dil licu lty, and a n opt im is t ou e who sees in every difficultyau opportunity.

Commendation of the work of theArdmore Chamber wa s made by Mr.Smedley who urged co-operation, reciprocity and participation in the life ofthe communi ty as the best road toprogress.

Hardwood floors can easily be laid over old floors. Beaut iful doors canreplace those that now sag on their hingeiS. An extra room-a playroom, denor bedrQom for the children-can be added by lining the attic with Celotex,which at the same time will make the house cooler in summer and more easy toheat in winter. A built-in china closet, a dining alcove, or a folding ironingboard will not only add to the attractiveness of the interior, but will assist inlightening household labors.

All of these things and many other improvements can be made with surprising ease and at reasonable cost.Let us offer suggestions, submit estimates, and supply dependable materials for any repairs or alterations you are contemplating.

But Ihis letharg ic spcl l was shaken off without further d el ay and since then have rolledup twclve victories without a defeat.Berwyn fcll t hree t imes under Nar

Th e three setbacks given the champions for the season were at th e hands o f Med ia in thefirst gamc of the year played away;by Brookline in the sccond gamc, andby Paoli in the l ast leaguc defeat forthe first half year of baseball.
