H t A M t W lH ', H e A u tM Ä itf! < hA -rot-A H Í > Ashland’s New Firm A mercantile company which bases its opera tions on clean, progressive merchandising methods should always be welcomed to a city, and, knowing that The J. C. Penney company stores base their operations on these principles, The Daily Tidings extends greetings of warmest welcome to the local unit o f this powerful organisation, which will hold its formal opening Thursday. The growth of the Penney idea has been in spirational. Starting with a small one-man store in a very sn^all town, the system has grown into a group of 900 units throughout the nation. A* magnificent as has been the material growth of the' store system, no less admirable, and influ ential in bringing about the growth of the organi zation probably, has been the loyalty and initiative of the thousands of young men who have received their training in the Penney stores as clerks, only to become managers and' owners when they demon strated the ability to handle one of the units. The Daily Tidings feels certain the local Penney store will assume its part of the responsibility of serving the buying public of Ashland and con- tiguous territory with credit to itself and to the community. eattor sa d * rum runner St miles e g Ptorlds Bunday.

The survey also shows that al though 23 states reduced indebtedness, the total in debtedness of all the statfia was greater than in 1925, and A? growing at a tremendous rate. This . total state indebtedness now amounts to $11.46 per 'capita. This doernot include county or municipal indebtedness. Nearly 5 per cent of all the states’ expenditures last year was applied to paying in terest on bonds. "<W«' It seems to be too easy to float bond issues and saddle the next generation with debt. Our state and municipal bonded debt now equals the total national debt, but with a higher interest rate. As an example of thrift Connecticut produces a bal ance sheet showing quick assets in exoees of in- ’ debtedness. They believe in the pay-as-you-go plan. Oil Winbum Way A local influential citizen recently informed the writer he expected te request the oiling of Winbum Way in the near future and added, while this task would require only a small expense, it was one of the most important ones which should be consummated. He stated it was possible the garages would furnish refuse oil for this purpose, thus not costing the city anything except the expense of hauling and applying. The Daily Tidings suggested this improvement several weeks ago and reiterates that, for the comfort of and impression on the thousands of visitors who go to the park, this improvement is imperative. With 5,500 registered tourist camps in the United States it would seem much of the country must be ou wheels. VMHV MOTHERS G6T NIGHT NOiGCS CONGRESS Out of funds, Seattle could build no jail.
