ABOUND TOWN

• That new bakin’ outfit that Pop and Ruth Rowen recently had installed has enabled them to turn . out some of the best cakes, breads and cookies you ever set a tooth to. The oil furnace is automatically set to stay within four degrees of the set temperature—and that's mighty important, too when it comes to baking. If you like to see the home industry get along, get your civic pride worked up to a pitch where you find a few minutes to go in and look at this modern baking plant. Occasionally, one can pick off a cookie or hunk of cake, too, when the baker is busy. • Christmas is coming, and “city’’ stores and catalog companies are preparing for this busy buying season by advertisements in this paper, by direct mail and radio. It’s the early bird who gets the worm—and these’big firms are big because they know that advertising, consistently, every week, helps build good will and eventually brings customers.
