Discusses Suicide Sign Post IMAGINE YOURSELF on an unfaniiliur highway at night in the country. You want to go to Alli son. You come to a forked road. No signs! i Which way? You turn left and come to a cross road. No signs. You turn right. You come to a town. It proyes to be Liberty. You go back to the folk and turn left. A mile or so farther on you come to another cross-road. A sign point ing right says "Allison three miles." Hut for that sign-post you might have traveled miles spent hours, and come short of your des tination. Imagine yourself in need of hosiery, clothing, breakfast foods or anything else, and this news paper without advertisements! Advertisements are sign-posts. They are in formation. They save you from wandering aim lessly from store to store. They keep you advised ef the newest products; of the latest values. They save you time, and put greater buying power in your dollars. They assure you of quality and service in merchandise, for only honest goods honestly advertised can stand the spotlight of publicity. a" A $sacinttti I'tcs Vhote Justification for suicide In cflset ot -'parsons dying slowly of an agonizing disease" was discussed by London's "gloomy" Dean Inge In an address to churchmen. a s. at ? , i 1 v'i i -j-t-'g i i.m-tfltfit r'rr, t'tfitO Paul Montgomery (left), MurpMygboro.
