hall were so interested in a pro
posed organization for North
Wilkesboro that arrangements
were made for Mr. Johnstun to
return here on the evening of
October 10 at which time it is
hoped to have all the merchants
and many of the professional
men present.
The Thomasville man lolnted
out the benefits to be derived
from an efficient merchants as
sociation and considerable Inter
est was shown by everyone pres
ent. However, It was decided that
it would be unwise to attempt to
organize until a majority of the
merchants could get together and
discuss tbe matter fully.
Mr. Johnstun explained the
many features of a merchants as
sociation to the small group and
advised the merchants not to at
tempt to organize and set up an
association unless an
one could be maintained. An all-
time secretary is an absolute
necessity, the merchants were
told.
The speaker told how In many

the savings in various ways that
could be effected through such
an organization would Indirectly

Friday morning Mr. Johnstun
talked to a number of merchants
privately and the interest was
sufficient to arrange for the

next week. The meeting will be
