SIX THE MORNING NEW BERNIAN, TUESDAY, AUGUST 21, 1917. Disappointment There are two things in this world that will come about as near making man a fit subject for squirrel food as anything else and these two are no other than DISAPPOINTMENT and TOUGH BEEF. Disappointment in business or love affairs is considered a calamity. Serve your guests with TOUGH BEEF -it is an insult. Preserve your domestic dignity by ordering your MEATS from a butcher who can be relied on.

A. CASTET Telephone 239 -Advertising Will Do It The billions of dollars that our government and foreign nations are borrowing from our people will be spent right in this country for foodstuffs and war supplies of all kinds. The bulk of this money will find its way into the hands of the millions of wageearners, and they in turn will spend most of it for the necessities of life. This community will get its share of those billions. The SHREWD home merchant knows this and is already mapping out an extensive advertising campaign to offset the tremendous efforts of mail order houses and merchants of the larger cities.

He will get his share of the business, because advertising will bring it to him. The local merchant who forgets to advertise, who expects to increase his business without a proportionate increase in legitimate publicity expense, may discover to his cost that he is decreasing it instead.g The public takes every man's number.

GIGANTIC PUSH ON SIX FRONTS (Continued from page 1.) the Canadians crept forward slightly northwest of Lens. Their artillery is now rendering the eastern exits from the battered coal city veritable death traps. The fall of Lens is generally considered merely a question of a short time. In Rome the Italian drive is looked upon as Italy's answer to the Pope's peace proposal. The French Verdun drive and the continued British pressure on the Teutons in Flanders are pointed to as illustrating the Allies' inmicality in this regard.

The only official statement from Vienna speaks of Italian attacks between Talmino and the sea, and says the struggle is raging with the greatest bitterness. 234-2128-Ivan Allen Thomas, 22 New New Bern. 235- 5- Jesse William Alcoke, 22 New New Bern. 239-2365-Lewis Ward, 136 George New Bern. 240- Hanna, 83 Middle New Bern.
