Attracting attention is. Of course,
an all important factor in advertise
ing. Many, however seem to consid-
er It tho sole aim ant end. Be that
as 1t may, its value depends largely
upon how IL is secured ard what a
multiplicity of methods ere used to
secure it. Hardly any two advertis-

to pose as a clown in any of his ads,
If thereby he can attrc ct attention.
He makes a cheap grade of shoes, but
probably the best on the market at the
price. In any event he has faith in
his product and believes that he can
attract more attention thereto by
clown advertising than by digniied an.
nouncements, and the results seem to
confirm his judgment.
The truth is that nothing is simpler
than attracting attention. The mere.
est ad-type can do that. From a
merchandising standpoint, however, If
that be all, it might as we'll not be

1.-THE AKRONIANS"
Charity Benefit to Have 800
People In the Cast.

A production with cast of $50 peo-
pie is an unusual one even for the lar
gest cities, but that is the exact nums
ber that will appear on the stage at the
bis charity benefit, "The Akronians," to
be given at the Colonial Theatre, Dec.
BO.31. The production takes its name,
1.-The .Akronians," from the fact that
the plot deals with Akron and vicinity.
The scenes are of Silver Lake park, the
songs are all about Akron; the cast is
composed entirely of Akron people, and
the net proceeds go to Akron charity.
Already the small army is familiar
with its many songs, drills and fancy
steps and the affair promises to be
great success. The ladies' Auxiliary
Board of the City Hospital which has
the affair in charge is highly pleased
with the prospects.

Sunday school was entered, and from
a mission box a lot of pennies We're
taken. The aggregate sum was so or

EMPTY
Handed and For
Iorn,
Hunters Treked Home
From Michigan.
Got Tangled Up With
State Wardens
And We're Deprived Of All Their
Game.

The adventures and experiences of
hunting trip in the wild and woolly
forests of Northern Main will no
doubt always remain vivid in the
minds Of two Akron men, Mr.. H. G.
Hauu and Mr.. Jack Grille, of South
Akron, who have just returned from
such trip. Their destination was
Ashland, Me-, which is Situated in the
extreme northern part of the state.
To reporter for the Democrat Mr..
Haun stated, I'VE left Ashland with
our outfit consisting principally of
guns, but no dogs, as it is against the
law to hunt with dogs in that state.
We walked 80 miles to Lake Matthias,
following a trail over mountains and
through dense forests, which was we'll
beaten, but quite rough in some places,
as such roads usually are, and arrived
at the lake none the worse for the long
tramp. Throughout the state Of Maine,
registering camps are located in diff
ferent sections, composed of cabins
and cottages which are owned by peo-
pie who board the hunters and trap
pers. These camps are licensed by the
state and the proceeds derived from
boarding these parties are turned into
O fund which serves to defray the ex-
penses of the game wardens.
"We finally got comfortably located
In a cozy little cabin and from this
point we made our daily trips into the
surrounding country in search of deer
bears and moose, which are generally
quite plentiful. We managed to lay
out eight deer during our stay, but
were unsuccessful in finding any bear
or moose. The thermometer was down
to zero most Of the time and there was
Just enough snow to aid us in track

there about a month, we broke camp
and the only trouble which seemed to
be in store for us was how to get out
of the state with the eight deer we
managed to kill, as one man is only
allowed two deer, and we were not
allowed by law to bring the whole lot
along with US. Atanyrate, we expressed
the four deer, which was our share,
and came back for the remainder and
were feeling quite joyful over our good
luck when we reached the depot at
Ashland and were about to board the
train, when a game warden spied us
and seized our four deer and we were
obliged to come home without them"
Mr.. Haun also stated that they In
tend to take another trip to Maine next
year for a hunt, 1t Is said that
Messrs. Haun and Grille had quite an
interesting time with the officers, be-
fore they were allowed to proceed
hoineward. They Jared well, however,
escaping with only nominal fines.
