An exciting game of football was

in legitimate advertising and renders
to the people of his community the
name kind of service he announce
in his advertisement.
Is It Worth the Kffort ?
People these days that have any
life left in them like to live In a
community where the town Is clean,
the sidewalks in good repair, where
the streets and gutters are not
Btrewn with a lot of old boxes,
where the storekeepers do not sweep
the cigar stubbs Into the streets.
Where they can send their children
to a public school that is modern
and up-to-date. Where playgrounds
and parks are at their disposal.
Where band concerts are given in a
park provided with seats and places
of comfort and not on the street
corner, the latter for the sole pur
pose of getting the people's money
because a few storekeepers are so
small and dried up that they refuse
to contribute unless the band con
certs are given on a certain corner
regardless of the discomforts of the
rspectators.
Any committee these days that ac
cepts subscriptions from so-called
business men who demand or re
quest that amusements be held at
certain places should bf told by the
committee that their money is not
needed. Better not have a celebra
tion if you have to adopt these back
woods methods.
Of course If it is agreed at a meet
ing that a certain entertainment is
to take place at .a specified place
and the man who is solicited doubts
the honesty of the committee be
all right for the person who sub
if they expect to carry out the wishes
of the organization, but to cater to
any one man or set of men in a
cprtain section Just because they
have given a few dollars, is a
practice that will kill any club and
city and you will be laughed at from
all sides. I wonder why these so
called buslnes smen demand more
of their Commercial organisation
than they do of their lodge or
church? When they give a subscrip
tion to one of these organisations
why Isn't it just as fair to say to
the committee, you bring me a
crow now, for the money I have
given you? What's the difference?
Your Town Is Going Ahead Or
Going Hack
A few years ago competition was
not so keen as it is today. With the
automobile on every corner, in every
city and on nearly every farm, with
the railroads running their up-to-date
trains and efficient service,
coupled with the co-operative spirit
in nearly every community In the
country means that your town will
have to get out of the rut If it is in
one, or the rut will soon be so
deep that it will be a grave. Don't
get scared because the war is on,
now is the time to keep your club
going.
Just stop a few minutes, go over
the situation, take an Inventory of
yourself, see how many meetings
you have attended, what help you
have given to your city and or
ganization in making it a bigger
and better place in which to live
and then when you have done this,
call the president and secretary out
of bed (they will be glad to hear
the good news tell them you are
with them and before the year has
rolled around you will wonder why
you have not gotten into the harness
long ago. You will find that "Old
Jones" is not such a bad man as
you thought, that "Bill" wasn't just
taking an active part because he
liked to get his name in the news
papers and that the town is a whole
lot better than you ever dreamed it
could be. Get the spirit, show the
pep, grab an oar, get in the boat,
pull to beat the band with the other
boys and help the old town like you
have been talking about.
Marvelous Growth of the West
On eof the members of the. new
staff at The Herald was over to Bay
ard the other day. One of the strik
ing things of the town was its mar
velous increase during the past year.
The enrollment at the high school
has Increased from 150 pupils last
year to 4 50 this year. This new
high school was recently completed
and is equipped in a very thorough
way, at the present rate of growth in
Bayard their facilities for handling
pupils will be outgrown in a few
years.
The residences of the city show a
great predominance of 'bungalows,
all very neat and making a fine
showing for the prosperity of the
city.
Practically every business house
on the main street is brand new and
with none of frame construction.
The new home of the Frst State
Bank is two stories high, and is the
finest looking building in Bayard.
Viewing this development leads us
to believe that the west will develop
with greater rapidity each year so
that in a few years we will rival the
eastern part of the state for wealth
and industries.
