When To Quit Advertising Best Time To Stop Ads
When population growth slows and generations crowd past you you stop coming on. When you have convinced everyone whose life touches yours that you offer better goods and lower prices than elsewhere. When you stop making it easy for buyers to act solely through strong sales effort. When you forget the words of shrewd men on the main cause of prosperity. When newer fresher ideas reach trade journals and you still cling to old. When you would rather have your god fail than take advice.

Deceived Her Mother In Lawerned Marriage Hoax in Mills County
A 14 year old girl Nettie Bothwell from Lewis township returned home with a man named W A Travis who claimed they had wed. Mrs J F Sneathen learned the age issue makes the marriage invalid and that Travis faces criminal charges. Travis was jailed in Malvern after a $600 bail bond and awaits grand jury action following a district court inquiry. The incident prompted local authorities to pursue legal proceedings rather than allow the union.
