To , S ocific the Daily News will 2 supports K anc. forth accept advertising Prod Facts from Lima merchants. " .Jpr.'xe practically all other daily pa- -. the Daily News is driven to it by the force of necessity ami self preservation. Most of the Wapokoneta merchants are apparently content to sit on the ‘ 'posterior position of their animal propensities whilst waiting for something to turn up in the shape of trade. They seem to consider that every penny they might spend with the newspaper for advertising is in the nature of a charitable contribution, and you might as well try to change the course of the planets as to argue in favor of advertising with a merchant of that kind. He is the loudest in his lamentations against people going away from home to buy goods, and he is also the first man in the community to try to invoke the aid of the local newspaper to stop the drift in that direction. At the same time, he would not give up a penny of his money to keep the editor out of the poor house, let alone spending a few paltry dollars for legitimate advertising in the local paper.” The week has ended and the greatly desired fund of SI,OOO for company A has not been secured. However, we feel that a good start has been made and like General Grant said, we will fight this out on Giese lines if it takes all summer.

This room is of very good size and can he put to a number of uses before the bovs leave. In case of heavy rain, the company headquarters can be moved there and several cots may be installed for the out-of-town boys to sleep on.

Orders have been sent in for fortyfive pictures of the company taken when they were mustered into fedcr al service. Not only the soldier boys | are buying them but also many towns- ' people.

Company A is going to drill at Bluff- > ton next Tuesday night and Captain Dunn has requested for all automobile owners who can donate their machines for that evening to take the boys over to our neighboring city.
