An incident which reflects great
credit on the labor organization OF the
country occurred at the late convention
OF the American Federation Of Labor
in Louisville, KY. The National
Liquor Dealers association anne be-
fore the convention with a formal pro-
posal that the two bodies form an of
fensive and defensive alliance. The
liquor dealers were ready TO agree, in
the event of this coalition, to employ
only union ~bartenders and walters, and
TO sell union-made beer. For a time
it looked as IL they might persuade the
labor men, but a delegate from Illinois
arose, and in a stirring speech recalled
the influence of Miss Frances Z. VIII
lard on behalf of organized labor, and
urged the convention in her name to
reject the proposition. When the vote
was taken its was almost unanimously
against the alliance. The Knights OF
Labor have also taken the same ground
Ia course which will add more
strength to the organization than
would be a million dollars in its treas.
ury.

To abate the advertising nuisance
advertisements which are in them
selves obnoxious or which are dis
played in unsuitable plaees-legislation
is not always necessary. Such action
as that recently taken by the Bill
Posters association OF England is
quite as effective. A theatrical man
ager perpetrated a sensational and
vulgar poster. The bill-posters refused
to put it up. Here Is foundation for
the hope that one day all public spir-
tied citizens will decline to use paint

A man doesn't have to get his head
very far above the sea of mediocrity to
command wide attention. Nine cases in
ten, when man says that advertising
doesn't pay, he has arrived at this conclu-
sion because he has expected the news
paper to do it all.
If he were to neglect his show window
and his store front as he negects his adj
vertising space he would have still other
complaints to make about business in gen.
eral. If the windows were never washed
and the display of goods never changed, he
would not expect many people to stop and
lose themselves in an ecstasy of admiration;
and yet he does seem to expect just this
sort of thing for an old, moss covered adj
vertisement
There is nothing magical about adver-
tising. 1t is one of the tools of trade,
just as a chsel is tool of carpentry The
man who handles the chisel properly can
do many useful things with it. If he is
careless and awkward he is likely to cut
himself.
It's the same way with advertising
