"Oregon is the place for you", has been the slogan brought to the attention of uiuu5u io vne attention or 5,000,000 people of the country through a big advertisement in the Ratnr. Dig advertisement in the Satur day Evening Post, placed by the Port land Commercial club, and the same message has been sent to 1,000,000 more through other publications. Reasons why Oregon is the state of opportunity have been presented. The 92 . commercial bodies of the state having membership in the Ore gon Development league have been given an opportunity without cost to them to answer immediately thous ands of new inquiries about Oregon Never before has Oregon been so well known and interest in the state so generally aroused. All that is need ed to get the best results is for the commercial bodies to take advantage of the opportunity and make these home-seekers familiar with their sec, tions by sanding them literature and answering Inquiries. (This is the largest and costliest adv. ever placed at one time by a western commercial club and will elicit thousands upon thousands of replies from real homeseekers, set tlenj. and Investors. These names will be sent to all the commercial clubs of the state, including Enter- prise, but will do us no good as there is not a line or scrap of litera- ture extant about this city and the gmt resources of this county all directly qr indirectly tributary to thla city, There Is no fund to pay the postage on the literature even if we had the literature. There 1 D H a tz a D n a a n B I - OREGON WIDE PUBLIC! rncnconnnnn nc no money to pay the clerk hire neces sary to mail the literature if we had it and someone would donate the stamps. . By far the hardest and costliest Part of advertising is furnishing the medium. This is done gratis for p" t0W"a 0t the 8Ute by I rortiand, and some towns can't even take advantage of it because of neg lect to furnish the descriptive mat ter. This Is plain speaking and maybe unwelcome but it is the truth and should be known.) p lir ! hfltfirflrNft WlfK H r 1 IJW " M First Cove fiame Defeat Heavy Hitters, Tuesday, By Decisive Score of 12 to 6 Cove, June 29.
