Cottage Grove Leader. SUPPLEMENT. VOL. XIX. NO. 50 COTTAGE GROVE, OREGON, MARCH 27, 1908. An Appeal to the Business Men. Few of the business men o f Cot tage Grove seem to realize what a struggle the "Superlative” , the representative paper of their high school is having, to meet its ex- l>enses. It cannot be that they do not understand the circumstances or have had no opportunity to show their interest, since their advertis ing solicitor has personally inter viewed every business man of Cot tage Grove.

Although some business men have supported them faithfully, to their own advantage and credit, if the students were to depend entire ly upon the representatives o f Cot tage Grove industry, the paper would now have been discontin ued. They don't however. They are now giving much valuable time and labor to assure a success ful Basket social, which is to be given early in April. Only recently the business men advertised liberally, in a pamphlet of no greater influence or circula tion than the "Superlative.” A l though this is no charity scheme, along with the direct benefits of their advertising, t h e Cottage Grove boosters” would do un limited good for tlje reputation of their school and town, not only at home but abroad. In the combined April and May issues, forming the Commencement number, the business men o f Cot tage Grove have their last oppor tunity o f showing their true inter est in their high school.— S t u d e n t .
