Jack Kuedt'll, of Aumsvil’e, in com­

The report of the boys' trip is as follow.:

reached the top of tbe pinacle at 10:40

ployment and the business de­
pression to the point where sell­
ing is more difficult than it har.
been in many years. Even high-
pressure salesmanship has lost
its “ open sesame” magic.
If this is true o f automobilss,
radios and life insurance, then it
must be ¿rue of communities If
it is harder to sell commodities
than it was during the prosper­
ity era, then it must be that much
more difficult to sell communi­
ties. And those who have been
trying to sell the home town to
the world know it is.
That leaves but one alterative.
Everyone must work that much
harder to put the sale across.
And that is the job of every cit­
izen of Turner who has pride in
his or her community and the
same ambition for its growth
and success as for his or her own
success.
This is a depression only to the
depressed. The wide awake, the
progressive and farseeing are do­
ing business.
Although it re­
quires more effort, brain power
and persistance, they are making
sales. That also applies to com­
munities. Some are doing a Rip
Van Winkle, waiting for the
thunder o f the next business
boom to awaken them. Others
are out selling themselves, mak­
ing their own booms.
There never was a more favor­
able time to sell a good town.
During a bonanza any place can
put on a good front. But a bo-
rasca brings out the truth worth
of a community just as it sepa­
rates the weak from the strong
in business.
Mrs J. M. Bones has a very produc­
tive apple tree this year She has al­
ready pealed near 500 pounds of apples
from tbe one tree ar.d dried them and
has quite a good deal more to do before
they are all gone. On Thursday she
invited Mrs. Mellis and two daughtars
and Mrs. Barzee in to help her peel ap-
apples.

The funeral servi«*a for Mrs. Par­
ker, 61, were held in the Presliyterian
church in Gervais Monday, conducted
by Rev. H. L. Grafious.
The church was inadquate to accom­

The floral emblems were many aud
beautiful, tokens of remembrances for
her they loved so well. Interment was
in the Masonic “ Twin Oak” cemetery
at Turuer.
