Therefore ..ur people are in a position to take advantage of bargains when opportunity pre sents. In this issue our reader« will find a large variety of firms bidding for their patronage, and some of them contain real bargains both home merchant/and those away. We be lieve the Tribune can truthfully say that it has just secured the largest volume of advertising contracts ever given to a community paper in Linn County 4700 inches, to be used within 12 months, and all of that is from the good merchants in Albany. We are highly elated over this suc cess. and when any reader cannot find what he wants tn Scio we urge trying our Albany advertisers next. If we cannot keep our money at home, let’s keep it in Ijnn county we'll have a chance to get part of it back if we do. If we send our hard earned moneV or produce awav in exchange for merchandise, we have no way to get hold of that money or produce again, and vuu and the com munity grows poorer.
