« Flattery can move mountains and gullible hu
man beings.
■MMh j ■ " -
When one gets down to it, just about every
one has his own little racket.
i
If you do not advertise, you don’t know the
business you’re missing.
1 Three deaths from football in one state this
season is three to many.
\.
Fire departments in this country are now en
tering the business season.
A good town is that way because people who
went before made it that way. .
The wise are eager to learn in contrast to the
ignoramus who knows it all.
The business that utilizes intelligent advertis
ing'and promotion is the business of the future.
.'Now that Ike may not i*un, the list of highly
regarded candidates is steadily growing.
Even a boo-boo could have made money in
the stock market-and big money-since 1945
Once in a while hear something really
brilliant, but only once in a while, and once in a
while you recognize it for what it is.
We sometimes wonder if the ancient custom
of cutting off tongues would not do a lot for this
community, if applied selectiveely.
We are backward enough to resent the man
who is always flawlessly outfitted in the latest
thing.
t
* * The football season is now entering its last
month, after which comes December and a rash
of bills.
Rumors are the basis for much opinion and be
havior and seldom bear any relationship to the
truth.
The business man who advertises usually lives
up to price standards and fair dealing. Beware
of the unadvertised out-of-the-way business.
Working for the betterment of mankind is ex
cellent, if you are really working for the better
ment of mankind.
The weather is still one of life’s greatest mys
teries, and the experts still do not understand
much that goes on above the earth’s surface up
to 50,000 feet, where weather ends.
If you want to attract people to your place of
business, you might advertise a new fall item in
this newspaper and follow up with Christmas
ads in the near future.

A blunt and fearless man, he
offended friends almost as often
as foes. He defied public opinion
by acting as defense attorney for
the British soldiers tried in 1770
for the Boston Massacre. He won
most of them freedom and be

of Massachusetts were so proud
they elected him to the legisla

Though respected, Adams waa
seldom loved. He greatly offended
many of his countrymen by in
sisting that the United States
Senate should be largely made up
of “the rich, the well-born, and
the able." He served two terms as
Washington’s vice-president, and
was himself named president in
1796. But a quarrel with Hamil
ton split his party and Jefferson
defeated him in 1800. 1
Abigail, his wife, a clever and
capable woman, also exhibited
New England thriftiness. When!
the Adams family moved into tha

it too large barnlike, she said

rat campaign. Outstanding among
the available rat and mouse killers
is warfarin, a potent substance dis
covered in the laboratories of Dr.
Karl Paul Link, Biochemistry
Dept., University of Wisconsin, by
Drs. Mark A. Btahmann, Miyoshi
Ikawa, and 1/ :k.
Warfarin L it is recommended
because:
It kills all
species of rnts
and mice eom
:uon to the
United States;
it is a slow killer
and does not
create bait shy
ness; no pre
baiting is re-
quired; no tolerance develops; it
is easy to use; it may be used in
any climate or season at any tem
perature; it is comparatively safe
to use; and it may be purchased as
a ready-mixed bait, as a concen
trate, or in water soluble form.
In. using warfarin bait, it must
be made available to the rats and
mice at all times. Bait stations—
shallow containers protected with
a board or a wooden box—are nor
mally examined and replenished
every 43 hours. A limited number
of permanent bait stations will
kill newcomers and control
reinvasion.
