The Town of No Good
Have you heard of the town of No Good
On the banks of the River Slow,
Where the sometime or other scents the
air
And the fragrant heart ease grow?
It lies in the valley of Wh it Vthe-Use,
In the province of Won’t be-Wise;
It’s the home of Old Fogylsm.
Where the men don't advertise.
The town is as old us the human race,
Audit hasn't improved with years;
It’s hid in the fog of Idlers-Dream
Aud its streets an* sprinkled with
tears.
Its merchant sits in an easy chair
An-1 talks to his customers three;
There’s nothing humming in this town
Save the hum of the busy boe.
His shelves contain last year’s go ids.
All covered with dirt and dust ;
Sometimes a customer buys a yard—
He does it because he must.
Do you live iu this town of No Good,
On the tmnksof the River Slow,
Where the business is conducted on the
same old plan
’Twas fifty yeaie ago?
Where nothing important happens
< >n the banks of the sluggish stream,
Where there is never a rush of busiut ss
And life is one long dream?
Would you leave this sleepy old town,
Be up-to-date aud wise?
Then bear in mind this motto,
‘•It pays to advertise.”

THE REPORTER
VISITS STEEL PUNT
And Learns That the Con
tractors Will Complete
Their Work by Octo
ber 10.
The reporter for the Catlettsburg
(Ky.) 1 ribune visited the grounds
of the Independent Steel Co. at
Keuova and follow ing in what he
t>ayc:
“l.itlle has been said of the pro
gresa being made in the building
and installation of the plant ot the
Independent Steel Company at
Kenova lately, though to thin flec
tion it is a kind of center attraction, j
ill eyes being directed toward the
establishment of this mammoth in
dustry.
A Tribune reporter saw Contrac
tor Taylor and Irom him gained the
tirst information given out as to the
probable tint > of the completion of
the buildings and the installation
and operation of the big plant.
•Mr. Taylor's work has been
rushed from the beginning and
when one rejects that nearly four
acres of ground is now practically
under rool, it would appear mar
velous that the work has progress
cd with such rapidity—but that is
Taylor's way of doing things.
Only a couple of small buildings
now remain to be completed, with
also some finishing work about the
larger ones, when everything will
be in shape for receiving the equip
ment. Mr. Taylor (states that he
will be done by about October the
tenth. In the meantime, there is
to be no time lost, m the installa
tion of the machinery.
Foundations for the ponderous
machinery will have to be put in
and th>s part of the work is likely
to begin right away. Already two
car loads of machinery are on the
yards and other large (shipments
will continue to arrive from now on
until it is all in. Mr. 'Taylor gives
it as an opinion that the plant wil
be rca.ly to begin operations by
about the first of February, possi
bly a little earlier, but counting on
some winter weather between now
and that time it is not likely that
»u ;h a vast amount of work as it
will require can be accomplished in
any less time.
A any event, the big industry is
an as •’tired fact and we cm certainly
now afford to 'possess ourselves in
patience,' until the smoke of the
big plants may be seen ascending
sky ward.
MATEItl A I OIIPKRED PROM ASIII.AVI)
It is said that an order for 250
tons ol steel rod has been ordered
from an Ashland plant and that
oth -r orders for large amounts of
material have been placed else
where to be delivered by the time
the plant is ready to operate.
It is the intention of the Inde
pendent people to install a wire
mill in the near future, but this
will not be done until after the
other departments of the industry
-hall have been inaugurated.”
