For man - weeks merchants have been stocking th:ir stores with the ante - Christmas suppli:s in readiness for the large volume of t ade which is handled at this season of he year. In the past citizene of Win ham have learned the rather severe les one taught by last- minute shopping, nd it is not surprising that there may b a revolution in this respect during e next few weeks. There'is no bette way for merchants to bring their goo s to the attention of buyers than th ongh the advertising columns of the u:wspaper. There is no money in Maine unless goods are be- ing kept const:. fly on the move. A store whioh oar.ies the same stook from ono end of the ,•eek to the other is not a profitable inv stmont. Tho only way in which to •• aka money is to keep things moving, and this oan bo done by making the pe • pie realize that `you have something for ; ale et prices which will draw the anon y from the hiding places. No man or omen is ready to allow birgaine to pas by unnoticed; bargains Will at all tines win the oash, and the only way to l'qocomplish this is to let the publio knows what you have to offer. The successful business man is he who tat all time succeeds in reaching the publio. To do that it is necessary to nee the med oma which people read and which are e er before their eyes. The newspaper i one of the means by which advertisers re sure to reach the people of a oomm nity. Consistent and con- tinuous ad rtising in the newspapers is responsible or the building up of many of the lar a enterprises of the coun- try, and th advertiser today, who does not reaoh a people through the col- umna of th weekly paper is the business man who is oomplaining of dullm.sss of the times, HIGH SCHO L NOTES. $1 YEAR IN ADVANCE We learn with •.noh regret of the sudden illnnee of Mr. Harry Green, president of the igh School Literary Society.
