CLUB IS ASKED TO
CAMPAIGN FOR ADVERTISING PHRASE ENDS
Large Number of Slogans Have Been
Suggested by Gastonlans and
Others From Which the Commer
cial Clnb is Asked to Select the
. One Which Will Best Set Forth
Gastonla's Good Points In Every
Line Entire Town is Agreed
That This - Is a Good Move
Movement Should Now be Inaug
urated to Devise Best Means of
Using Slogan Most Effectively
Tbe Complete List.
As announced last week Tbe Ga
zette's campaign for a slogan for
Gastonia, which has been going on
since June 30th, closes with this is
sue of the paper and we are pub
lishing below a complete list of slo
gans suggested. The majority of
these have been suggested by resi
dents of the town though not a few
have come from other towns and
sections, in some cases from the far
West and Northwest. There are
many good ones in the list but The
Gazette is not going to undertake to
say which is the best one in tbe lot.
The matter of making a choice has
been referred to the Commercial
Club with a request to make the se
lection in whatever manner the club
or tbe board of governors of the
club may deem best.
The following letter has been ad
dressed to the secretary of tbe club:
Gastonla, N. C, Aug. 4, '11.
Mr. S. A. Robinson,
Secretary Commercial Club,
Gastonla, N. C.
Dear Sir:
We enclose herewith a full and
complete list of the slogans which
have been sent to us during the
period from June 30th up to today,
this being the date on which our
campaign for a suitable slogan for
Gastonia ends. We respectfully re
quest that the Commercial Club se
lect from this list the slogan which
it considers the most appropriate
and effective for all purposes or, if
the club does not find in this list a
slogan which it deems entirely suit
able, we ask that the members or
board of governors use their best
endeavors to make and adopt a suit
able slogan.
As to the manner In which the se
lection is to be made the club may
determine Itself.
It is our opinion that no other
one thing can accomplish more for
the advertising and consequent up
building of a live town than a catchy
and meaningful slogan properly
used. You will readily agree with
us, we believe, that Gastonla is. the
best town in the Piedmont and also
that it is the least advertised. In
order to Seep up with the proces
sion we must let the outside world
know what opportunities await them
here.
It would also give us pleasure to
publish any suggestion the Commer
cial Club may have to make as to
the best manner in which to use the
slogan after your selection has been
made. .
