A Method Which Will Quicken the
Life of Every Town That Trie's It
The Herald ot Haines City, Fla., in
h recent issue had the following:
“Under the caption of 'Why People
Conies West’ the Oakland (California)
Outlook states:
“ ‘Seattle spends $250,000 annually
featuring the great Northwest and Seat
tle spirit.
“ 'Portland has just gone over the top
on a $300,000 goal to advertise Oregon.
“ ‘San Francisco will have spent
$550,000 in a two-year program to Show
the world San Francisco knows how.
“ ‘l.os Angeles invests $200,000 an
nually to make herself the most talked
of place in the .world, and it’s working
“ 'San Diego, little but mighty, feels
$75,000 is not too much to ask of her
business meu to advertise Coronado
Beach and Balboa Park, and she gets
it.’
“The cities of Florida should spend
more money in the right kind of ad
vertising. It is gratifying indeed .to note
the substantial fund being raised by the
Florida Development Board for the pur
pose of advertising opr incomparable
state. Florida’s climate is unexcelled
anywhere in the world and it is up to
the cities of Florida to raise the neces
sary funds for letting the whole world
know ‘Why People Come South.’ ”
The suggestion of the Herald applies
not simply ~'fo Florida but pre-eminently
to every other state in the South; |
Florida is doing more advertising than
any other state and yet there' is still
room for Florida to expand its adver
tising activities, for it is through its
advertising that the present wonderful
development of that state has been
brought about. Other Southern slate*, if
they would follow Florida's example,
could attract far more attention than
they are doing.
Advertising does not simply draw men
nnd money from- other sections, ’but it
enthuse** the people ini the place in
which the advertising is done. Dive,
vigorous advertising in the local papers
of Florida is largely responsible ' for
stimulating the spirit of Enthusiasm, in
local people and in helping them to get
a broader vision of their own appor
tunities. The .live totfn is often' made
alive by virtue of local- advertising. The
dead town is one in which comparative
ly little advertising is done.
The town or the state that desires to
be left alone without being disturbed

from its long sleep of death should
never advertise, locally or outside, for
the moment its business people com
mence live advertising, its banks, its
merchants and its manufacturers com
mence to tell their own people what they
have on which to build up industry, a
new spirit will be, awakened.
Today the most important thing in
three-fourths of the towns of the South
is to wake up the local people, and this
can only come through the tonic of well
worded nnd well placed advertising in
all their local papers.
When once a town breaks loose in a
spirit of local advertising it will then
be prepared to spend money for outside
advertising, but the local paper has a
right to enlist the heartiest co-opera
tion of its local clientele, and the better
and broader this advertising, thf more
spirit that is thrown into it, the more
optimism that is given . it, ;the more
quickly is the community itself aroused
into new life. Then that community is
in a position to invite other people to
come and take part in its development.
No town or city or state has a right to
•seek to draw outside men and money
until it has put its own house in order,
until it has cleaned up its streets and
paved them if they are unpaved, painted
and beautified its homes a nil put on its
best Sunday-go-to-meeting ■’ clothes in
order to welcome the stranger who may
be invited there. ’,
Any advertising where, in t{>e lan*
gunge of the day. the goods cannot be
delivered, is Worse than useless, be
cause the money is not only waited but
helpful.
The merchant who advertises goods
which he cannot deliyer wrongs his
prospective customer aml his own busi
ness. The community which advertises
resources nnd attractions In order to in
vite outside men and money, unless it
has brightened up and cleaned up and
1 painted up is doing -itself harm, and if
1 -a prospective investor 'or setter comes
1 he is-driven away and tdkes an unfavor
able impression with him. Therefore,
■ let every community in the South that
‘ wants to develop wake up, clean up,
? paint up and begin an active advertising
■ campaign in the lpcal papers about its
own business interests. Then, and only
> then, can it nffofd to go before the
l world and invite others to .come.

THE CONCORD DAILY, TRIBUNE
Beautiful and Useful
Gastonia Gazette.
Many city dwellers ridicule the idea
of having a garden and fruits on their
lots saying that it is. much cheaper to
boy vegetables and fftßts than it is to
raise them, and maintaining that when
the seasons are favorable that it is much
more satisfactory to. ■ pU«s*se from the
stores. On the other handth ere are those
who will have their little garden plot
no matter how little space they occupy
and from it they gather enough vege
tables and fruits to supply their tables
throughout the summer, and have enough
sometimes for the neighbors.
In addition to the practical benefits
to be derived from. having one’s own
vegetables fret* every day there is the
farther advantage of the healthful exer
cise to be had from working in the
garden.
Even in as large a city fcs Montgom
