BETTt » y jiT H tflE—Ti Step On The Gas Recently this newspaper published an editorial suggesting that if business is poor, advertise. This was merely the newspaper sljpit upon the question. ."We naturally advocate the remedy with which we are' most familiaT as we know -it has been success­ ful, but there are other remedies of merit, radical retrenchment not being one of th^m, however. I f business is poor be more aggressive in every way even though it means spending more money than when things are booming. If you come to a hill you don’t shut down on your gasoline, but on the contrary you step on i t - If business Vs poor offer bigger induceme3|p— better assortments and closer prices, if necessary. Make yfcur place of business moye inviting and urge (your employes to work just a little harder to make a sale. „ b ■ ¿ ’•A It ¡requires more work to raise a crop in a poor season than when everything is favorable but good formers recognize this fact and instead of quit­ ting, work all the harder. Unavoidable conditions usually are responsible-.- for bad bnsiuess periods but they are invariably (aggravated and prolonged by panicky action on ' he part of those who quit when the going gets ough. ' i J Bad Roads Kill Development Good roads are a productive investment. Whore ¡roads are bad, development of adjacent territory is plow, if, indeed, there is not retrogression. Good roads enhance land Thosn^e- business generally. They ineap improved transpor­ tation facilities and the means for getting about tjuickly and conveniently. “ Economic Management of a County Highway System” will -be discussed by W. S. Hawkins, bounty Engineer, Gulfport, Mississippi, at the Sixth {Annual Asphalt Paving Conference to be held in tlantia, Georga, November .28 to December 2 elusive. i Prominent men from all parts of the country frill address the convention on practically every bhase of toad building and maintenance. Particular ptress will be laid on the salvaging of old roads and worn-out pavements with a suitable wearing course of asphaltic material. \ ' £ Fighting Inferno On Earth A minister at Dallas, Oregon, invitedzthe whole town to a special sermon on “ Fir« Prevention.” Jle might have likened jt io the fire-and-brimstone Of Calvinism; but he didn’t—he told it just as it is, with the fire loss of life running to 15,000 or more a year, mostly women and children and hospital inmates. I t’s almost as bad in America as the World War; and infinitely less defensible, for there is in the fire loss no plea of national honor, no protest against outside assault, but only personal greed and carlessne8s and jsravado. It is a moral and spiritual question that the church might well take up and handle without gloves. • Truth, Its Unfailing Strength ’ The press of America ys noi infallible as to fact or invulnerable as to bias; but it is overwhelm­ ingly honest, in its intent and comment. There was a Judas among the Master’s Twelve; there was an Arnold in the Revolution; there wag a Nero in im­ perial Rome; there have been traitors masquerad­ ing as editors, just as Ujere have been fraudulent bankers and shoemakers and railroaders and men from every rank of life ^ B u t geherally speaking, what one reads is usuall^nore true than what one The press is inherently truthful; that is its tiling strength.
