ROSEBURG. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30, 1924.
ROSEDURG GETS FAVORABLE ADVERTISING.
During the past week Roseburg has received much favorable
advertising. The dedication of the new highway bridge at Win
chester and the big booster meeting held here Monday brought
thousands of people to this section. This demonstrates that it is
of more than ordinary importance to hold events of various kinds
to attract people to the community, if only for a day. But these
conventions and demonstrations require a whole lot of hard work
and our citizens should bear in mind that to properly entertain
visitors the responsibility should not rest on the shoulders of a
comparative few persons. It is the duty of all to do their part in
work of this kind in order that our visitors be well and cheerfully
entertained, leaving a lasting impression of Roseburg hospitality.
There has been no complaint on recent occasions, therefore, we
should take greater interest in future events to make them suc
cessful in every particular, and when sessions of any nature are
held here it is the duty of all to take a part therein, thus relieving
the responsibility so successfully carried forward by a few en
thusiastic individuals who are painstaking in their efforts to
please. Commenting on a recent visit to this city the editor of the
Medford JIail-Tribune has the following to say :
"The more one sees of Roseburg the more enthusiastic one
becomes. They have a high school that is at least 20 times better
than the high school in Medford, a most attractive golf club six
miles out on the Umpqua river, residence section off the regular
course of motor travel, that is most attractive, and "now they are
putting in a fine athletic field and putting on a strawberry fes-
tivai."
The Grants Pass Courier, speaking of the booster meeting
held here Monday, comments as follows :
"In such an organization as the Oregon Hospitality Club,
formed Monday at Roseburg at a meeting of members of the vari
ous booster clubs of the state, there exists the machinery for tlie
( accomplishment of much that will be for the good of the state.
Composed as it is of the most active workers in the localities in
which it exists, the booster club lias become recognized as the ad
vertising medium for that locality. By grouping themselves into
a single body, these various groups will be able to advertise Ore
gon. The purposo of the clubr.as set forth at the meeting, is to
foster and develop the inter-community spirit and extend cordial
ity to the increasing numbers of tourists who are passing through
the northwest."
Throughout the entire state all newspapers carried news dis
patches 01 what was going on in Rosbeurg, giving wide publicity
to the two recent events held here. Thus, it is conclusively demon
strated, that the efforts of our people in all public matters af
fecting Roseburg brings excellent returns for the energy, time : ?ncy f the "eattl?r "nd the p3'1

By judicious advertising any manufacturer or merchant in a
city or state may create demand for articles of which little is
known. It is simply a process of creating a desire in the mind of
the buying public to try out the product advertised. This adver

of stimulating business and inducing people to buy. In turn,
the demand caused by purchases makes manufacture necosarv 1 iuiet settle down upon the tiny brown ' mart era prior to his

Mr. Waddell who has Just returned i
from Bremerton reports that the Ore-'

However, she Is In need of paint, in
side and out, and her furnishings'
have been stripped from her, so that;
it will coHt $14,000 or $15,000 to put
her in proper shapo.
The committee has recommended
that the state accept the famous old
warship if the government will put
her In condition, earn ing out the re
quirement of the state, which pro
vide for painting inside an dout, a
thorough cleaning, and the restora
tion of the furnishings which have
been removed.
The boat has been l'ng at Bremer
ton for the past three years, and her
paint Is In bad condition. The action
of salt air on the Interior paint of a
vessel requires that It be frequently
repainted, and this will be quite a
task.
