We now turn back to answer the question, Does it bring Business? Weil it certainly does. One ware- house alone in the city liandleà 24 million pounds of apples in four days operation. The f olKsclown that way raust be satisfied with it or it would neyer have Uived tQ thse age of nine years. There are a few further thin.gs we should aad about this festival, al- though even at that we have anly skimmed the surface and told you *an outline of the events. Handsome booklets are issued describing the whole district. Stationery and en- velopes are marked with the Apple Blossom. Everything you see, news- paper wrappers, postcards, yes ev- erything tells something of the Fes- tival. Wonderful publicity and it draws the crowd ! Not only that but Apple Candy is manufactured. 0f course maps of the routes are printed and everything is macle available for the visitors ta have a wonderful time. Dr. James in his letter ta the edi- tor says that Winchester is a city of 14,000 inhabitants and he suggests that we put some of these ideas into effeet. Weil, wha knows, perhaps 1933 Festival ilîl see the dawn of a great annual festival in Durham County which in the years ta came will even surpass that of Winchester. Virginia. We'll do aur best anyway to add lustre to Durham as the years roll on, but we will have ta have the very heartiest and most spontaneous support f rom citizens of the town and country alike. Lastly, let us just remind the growers of Durham haw fartunate they are. Business in Virginia is gaod in apples, but just remember that the tariff wall erected by Eng- land against the United States is giving you a wonderful chance ta market your apples in the Old Land which can absorb mare than Dur- ham County can ever graw. U. S. apples are practically barred. While the tariff wall is in existence is the time to exert every effort In galning a strong foothold in the British market. Carry on ! Ca rry on! Fight the good fight and true; Believe in your mission, greet life with a cheer; Theres big work ta do, and that's why You're here. Carry an! Carry on -Robt. W. Service.
