Tbe Bulletin believes in Ball
wood aed Bell wood's future. It
believes tbat Bellwood ia destined
to be a much greater town than it
ia today. It believes that the majority of people living ia Bellwood
bave an abiding faith in the
town's future and in the Bellwood of today. It is this faith
that bas made Bellwood and it is
this same faith tbat is going to
make Bellwood a greater town.
No one need talk ot "putting
Bellwood on the map." For, all
all the world knows, Bellwood is
already on tbe map; it bas bad a
conspicuous place tbere lor maoy
years. And it is going to remain
tbere forever.
Bellwood is already a great
place in which to live. If ona
were to look all around the atate,
none better could be found.
When everything is considered,
no ooe honestly can say that any
other town is a better place than
Bellwood.
For that reason, if yon have
any money to Invest, invest it in
Bellwood. It ia aafer at home
than it ia any place else. Keep
oot of tba clutches of the oily-
tongued stock salesmen who
comes from a distance and wants
yonr money to invest in an enterprise, the merit of whioh you
know nothing save what ia told
you by the mao or mea seeking
to "separate you from your coio."

If our citizens will take time
to glance through a Monday

one of our large eitiea they will
quickly see tbat it takes more
than the bands and feet to operate an automobile. Tbe paper-
will tall of death aod injury all
over the United States, largely
due to the fact tbat the thousands ot drivers on Sunday drives
were at the meroy of many who
do not uae their heada aa well aa
their hands and feet. If we
ooold speak but ona sentence to
auto drivers it would be this:
"Use your head!" Take it easy,
watch the other follow aa well as
yourself. Don't take anything
for granted. The other fellow
may do exactly tha opposite ot
what you guessed he was going
to do. If you are using your

you ean prevent an accident tbat
he might bave been responsible
