"A GROWING MENACE'
Being too busy this morning to
write something myself I am taking
the liberty again of borrowing from
my friend who is secretary of the
McComb Mississippi Chamber of Com
merce. Smith is his name as com
mon as Davis but a very uncommon
fellow. His article applies to every
city and every citizen regardless of
location.
A Growing Menace
(By C. H. Smith.)
"Members of the Chamber of Com
merce and the public generally will
hear a great deal and read a great
deal about the itinerant salesman .
'the man who will never help you
build a town, and who contributes
nothing to the welfare or support
of McComb.
"The itinerant is a bird of prey and
a bird of flight. His chief purpose is
to get business to which he is not
entitled and for which he does not
pay his proportion of expense. He
takes advantage of unthinking people
and profits by the industry, effort, re
sources and wealth of this community
which he is not interested in foster
ing or maintaining. These are the
facts.
"To many members of the Cham
ber of Commerce patronize these itin
erant salesmen for every kind of mer
chandise, which might be purchased
here in like quanity and quality at a
fair price. The practice is wrong
and intolerable. Not particularly be
cause it is unfair and a menace to
the local retail merchants who may be
your customer, but fundamentally
wrong because the social and business
structure is being weakened and un
dermined. Such citizens can not con
tinue building up other business cen
ters and expect the local goose to con
tinue laying golden' eggs.
"It is not alone the lotof merchan
dise sales, but the loss of business to
doctors, lawyers and other profes
sional men who are serious, because
the loss of business to the merchant
and his employes means the lack of
ability to pay for needed professional
services.
"As h:p start we conclude. You will)
hear more about this problem. Next

BANK IS DOLLED UP
In the point of both the general
appearance of the building as well
as the volume of " business and
strength of the institution, the Mur
ray State bank, is taking a back seat
for no other bank in this section of
our great commonKalth.
The Murray State bank has just
recently had installed a new set of
fixtures that makes it one of the
handsomest appearing banking
houses in the state.
The new fixtures were made to
order for the bank by one of th
large supply houses of St. Josep'i
and -they are certainly beauties in
every sense of the word.
The wood portion of the fixtures is
in the rich ' mahogany finish and a
handsome ornamental grill tops the
fixtures and adds to the beauty of
the desks and up to date fittings. The
base of the counters and the office par
titions is of marble and makes a
completing touch to the bank.
Cashier W. G. Boedeker and As
sistant Cashier Ludwig Hallas are
finding a great deal of pleasure , in
the handsome new work room that
they now possess and the people of
Murray can be well pleased over the
snappy appearnce of their banking
house.
