TUESDAY, JUNE 13. 1922
When the new Chamber of Com
merce gets going goou, and from tin.
progress the directors are making to
ward organisation that will not be
long, one of the. first things it might
well look into is at taction to Flor
ence of New England capital. Mills ot
New England nave found that the, 1
can manufacture goods more cheaply
in the South than they can in the
east. For this reason they are mov
ing south. An opportunity is here pre
eented for work that may develop into
something really “Forth, while. Foi
industrial purposes Florence otters e\
ery advantage. It should not be dif
ficult to convince any ot the, big mil
owners of the east chat Florence of
fers them much by way of location,
rail facilities and freight rates am
power, it offers them also a climate
that for the year round is unsurpassed,
and it offers them educational, church
and social advantages second to uom
in this region, and what is just as im
portant it offers them a clean, right
thinking city in which to live. It is-
understood that some of the mill mei
have already turned their eyes to
ward Florence juid every effort should
be made to keep them looking
straight. ‘ ✓

ocial side of home
With four large tobacco ware
houses, presuming the cooperative
association will .carry out its plans
to build, Florence will be in a posi
tion to handle advantageously not
only all of the tobacco grown in
this territory but shipments from
other maikets as well. Inasmuch as
Florence is to be the center of the
association’s activities for South
Carolina, more importance than ever
will be attached to this city as a
tobacco market. While the associa
tion will have warehouses, at every
important market in the belt it is
understood that the main business
of the cooperative body will be direct
ed from this point. The association
came here because it believed Flor
ence offered the nest advantages. No
pressure was brought to bear on the
officials and. persuasion also was un
necessary. Our own warehousemen.
Messrs. Jake Berger -find Howard
Cannon have faith also in the future
of the tobacco business in Florence,
both of them having invested heavily
in the enterprise. The fact that Jake
Berger who already owns one of the
largest houses*in the belt is building
yet another appears to be significant.
It looks very much like Florence is
coming back into her own as the
leading tobacco market of the state.

“What can I do to make Florence a
bigger and better town” is a question
every man living here should seriousl*
ask himself, and every woman, too
should give constant thought to it.
Molfc of us believe in Florence anc
have'visions of its growth into a cit>
of great importance but are we doing
anything to help bring our dreams to
a relization. Competition is just at
keen among cities ami communities
these days as it is in business, and it
is the people who keep eyes and ears
open to opportunities who succeed in
the long run. Some times they are
forced upon us, sometimes we go
after; tKo.m. We have tailed In few
of the things we have earnestly
and energetically sought. There is
something about Florence that at
tracts, there is a something that
makes other people want to come here
and to stay here after they come.
Provision must be made for them,
however. They must have something
to do when they get here, for all can
not come bearing gifts. Several days
ago we heard a man say that he
wanted to do something for his city
but did not know how to go about it.
It developed that this man did not
even belong to the Chamber of Com
merce. That is one way everybody
can help and the way is wide gpen.
We are not prepared to discuss the)
justice or injustice of the wage re- j
ductlons ordered by the railroad la- j
bor board. There are two sides to
that question just as there are to any
other question, and a closer study than
we have given to either would be nec
essary to arrive at an honest conclu
sion. It was inevitable, however, that
decreases should come to railroad

HOW ADVERTISING |
AFFECTS THE READER!
Milwaukee, Wis., June 13.—Upright
linex in advertising .retard or hold th
eye, slanting lines suggi st movement
while zigzag lines are used for excite-
mjsiit, according to W. D. Camp! ell, of
‘be Associated Editors, of Chicago n
an address on p whole,gy in adverti/
ing before the Associated Advcrtis.h;
Clubs of the World here today.
“Use straight lines for advertising
male affairs,” Mr. Campbell told tie I
advertisers. “Use slanting Hires fori
j advertising female effects and use zig j
j zag lines for children's effects, toys
«pd such. However, combine ‘he
straight and euived lines for most of
the ordinary artistic intellectual ef-l
fects.
“Lines of color are the acme of in-
tenssness. It meats directive force
and throws the onlooker’s eye to any
point desired. A related or consistent
movement is lythm. The eye will fob
low a related line to a point of inter
est. ' ^
Balance is another of the basic laws
of advertising. Combine balance,
:ythm and harmony and thc total re
suit is pulling power.”

FOOD THE KEYNOTE
SOVIET PROBLEMS
Moscow, June 13.—Food is the key
note of many Soviet Russian prob
lems; hence the crop prospects fori
September ft922 are of the greatest in
terest. There is reason to believe that
the yield will be greater than in the
famine year of 1921, but further than
this no one today can piophesy.
If the 1922 harvest is fair. Russian
industry would then be able to provide
their workers with food; the lumber
industry would improve if the wood
cutters were able to gtt r ‘ions, and
their activities ^would see the opening
cf saw mills.
As the meager food stocks in the
provinces become moie and more de
pleted, provinei i' Russians are coming
to Moscow to sell thei r belongings to
buy food in the -i'y markets. Uevcrs
ing the process of a year ago, when
city dwellers went t\ the provinces for
food, cow the provincials find tint
Moscow, where free trade lias devel
oped much more than in the country,
has stocks available lor' all with mon
ey.
Moscow’s progress toward surface
prosperity during Hie past few months I
has made it a startling contrast to less
fortunate provincial towns.
