' MERELY A COURTEOUS THING TO DO ailed attention -Lrf Medi'ord by the Kurd .Motor Company in its p;if?e advertise ment in the Literary Digest, citing tin Aledford airporL aH a siskin"; example. of air-minded enterprise. : Since then similar adveriiscmonls have appeared in the Na tional (I'eooraphie, and now in this week's issue of the Saturday I'A'eiiiu' I'osl. Thanks to Henry Kord, for every dollar placed in this new airport, Medi'ord is receiving over lIO cents of free advertis ing. I'ndcr the cii-cuiiistauccs we believe that, a letter from the Medi'ord Chamber of Commerce, thanking the Kord -Motor Company for this unsolicited tribute and boost, would be; very i. inch iu order.

In the recent, presidential campaign, it- is now generally agreed, that his religion, jnut his close connection with Tammany, defeated Al Smith, rather than any stand he teolc on nat ional issues. Il- is true, of course, thai no useful purpose could he served by New York's former governor trying to deny his relip;iMis and political affiliations; but iu a Jess candid character there would certainly he a tendency to minimize the importaneu of sueh in fluences in his life. Hut iu "I'p to Now'' Al Smith e-ives a picture of his earls life iu New York I'ity, uhieh is absolutely convincing in ils frankness and sincerity, lie neither apologizes for, nor over emphasizes, his politicul obligations to Tammany, tip his loyalty lo the church to which he has always belonged, and to the re ligion, iu wlflch he believes.
