Pending their reception, we preferred to re main intcognite to the greater number of you. This reception has been so cordial, however, that we are embold ened to ask each one of you to aid us in this venture for the good of our town. It is our desire to represent every one and not become limited to one street or to one "set." To do this we must have your corporation. If you, or your friends, are entertaining a friend, if you, or your friend, are going away, if you observe anything of interest let us know; just give us a hint and we will get the facts. Don't be afraid to see your name in print -honestly, it's a grand and glorious feeling." Try it! Remember that we receive no fin ancial returns. Our whole desire is to see our town boosted. It is a pity that our town has not a press club or publicity bureau for wider dissemina tion of information throughout the State. Here is a wonderful oppor tunity for a wide awake school sup erintendent to render a real service to the community. If we are willing to do our best, won't you help us?
