Imagine the mental picture a town would be to the outsider picking up the local paper and glancing over it if the name of every business firm ap- peared in its advertising columns in a space big or little. Every business man {or his own and general, should advertise good in the local papers, even if he takes only an inch space. The local newspaper should be a bus- iness directory to the town. Most towns have, however, several good ad- vertisers who constantly keep them selves and their town to the front, and their example should be generally tol- lowed.
