^ odd hard facts are usually just
’ that—except on many cold hard tomb
stones.
Ignorance of the law excuses no
* f aaa—but knowledge, of the law con
fuses every one.
Stretching the truth is one way of
making things go as far as they can
—but look out for the snap-back.
We never looked at it this way
before but it is a fact that there are
an awful lot of “a” curves in Missis
sippi.
If Ruth Brown Snyder goes to the
electric chair in New York, she will
be the fourth of the seven women put
to death in this State, who murder
ed or helped to murder their hus
bands. This being a husband also

Business and Printer's Ink.

o
Ws haven’t much patience with
the local merchant who complains
about the business that is going to
the mail-order houses and to mer
cantile establishments in nearby
dtfcs when the said merchant is a
non-advertiser, although he has our
sympathy. Not long ago we heard
such a complaint from a merchant
friend who nursed a grievance
against the city merchants who were
attracting considerable trade from
Barnwell. At about the same time
we were reliably informed that an
ether local merchant had sold
of clothes in one day. One
merchants is an almost weekly
oser of printer’s ink in one form or
another—the other is not!
Several daily newspapei ■ reach
Barnwell every day. Every issue car
rice interesting store news from the
dty merchants. Every possible in
dueement is offered to attract trade
Bargains are featured. The mail or
der catalogs that occasionally floo<
thia territory make their appeals for
patronage, and as we pointed out
week, many of these concerns
maintain a special department
sole business is to And towns
where the local merchants do not ad
weetiae in the local newspapers.
With city merchants and mail or
der houses so active to attract trade
oa the one and local merchants
fca an apathetic attitude on the other
is R any wonder that the latter con^
ttaae to loat ground every week and
month and year?
•- Our Barnwell County merchants
probably have as good or better val-
MB than can be found in any store
hi Augusta or Columbia, but the
trouble is ■they do not bother to let
ir customers know what they
to offer. Consequently they
drift away to the city.
k is all well and good to talk
about “Trading at Home" and The
People-Sentinel is ready and willing
to back that policy to the limit, but
Hut will not do much good unlesa the
merchants themselves wake up to
the fact that advertising is not
charity but a good sound business in
vestment.
’—The story is told r,f an advertising
solicitor who called on a small town
:hant. “No,” said the latter, “I
i't .think I’ll do any advertising.
I’ve been here for ten years and the
people all know 1 am in business.”
The advertising man looked across
the street and saw a church. Point
ing to it he said, “That church has
been there for 50 years, but the
Ml is rung every Sunday morning.”
Yes, the people know that certain
men am in business but they must
be told about the wares that are sold
J. and the bargains in store for them.
Mothing is truer than ”if you want
ton art now busy searching about for
M hook-up N lagislation upon which to
tack another MeNary-Haugen bill,
with the idea of forcing the next con
gress and tlja admtniaration to accept
it or see peffcaps their pet billy what-
ever-it-may-be, go down to defeat
Already leaders of the American
Farm Bureau Federation, The Nation
al Grange and the Farmers’ National
Union have arranged an October
meeting in Washington to prepare «
program for a farm relief campaign,
and have it ready and waiting for
Congress when it convenes in De
cember.
The “hook-up” may be made with
the Mississippi flood legislation which
will then come up and, which at this
time, seemingly is assured of action.
With flood relief and farm relief a
joint issue, backed by the agricul
tural block in Congress, there is hope
of pushing McNary-Haugen meas
ure through.
Chester H. Grey of the American
Farm Bureau; L. J. Taber, president
and Frederick Brenckman of the
National Grange have already inform
ed the President that 1 sentiment
amongst the farmers is still st'-ong
for the equalization fee feature of
McNary-Haugen bill, and that any
bill to find favor must provide fuii'Js
to help them market crops.
It is generally known that farm re
lief advocates are going to point long
and earnesly at “pig iron” and its
increased tariff, in making demand
for federal aid in agriculture. It • /ill
be brought to mind that nearly every,
thing said which “could not be done
for agriculture” was done almost im
mediately for pig iron through in
creased tariff. In other words,
“Government price fixing” seems
okeh for industry—but not to be
thought of for more than 4,000,
farmers.
