AsIRIEs OF TEN TALKS oS ADVERTISING No 1
by Seymour Eaon OF Philadelphia LNO'

story is told of prisoner who called the judge
a fool The judge fined him $40 He paid the fine
but asked DO you fine people for thinking your
Honor?" The Judge answered in the negative.
Well" he said, 7 think you're fool still"
If should print my personal opinion Of some big
advertisers like as not I'd get fined but it is perfectly
safe to think.
If a traveller came to you and talked of the stuff
which his house prints advertising you would put
him down at once as an idiot
The talk is unnatural sounding brass and
tinking cymbal unreal, insincere, dead The reader
feels that it isn't the advertiser who is talking that
there really isn't anybody talking that the words
just printing.
Good advertising is good talk the frank honest
kind that convinces.
An advertisement of one hundred words should
make the reader think five thousand words and
herein the whole secret Of good copy isn't what
you say that counts but the chain Of thought which
your advertising creates.
The more you fuss over your advertising copy the
poorer the result isn't job to stutter about or to
apologize for or to burn midnight OIL over you
want to make an advertising hit all you need 10 do
IS to talk to the reader Of the newspaper you talk
across the counter TO customer

TO SAVE STATE EXPENSES.

Guthrie, Okla.-An opinion Friday
by Assistant Attorney General w. &.
Reeves, and concurred in by Attor.
ney General West, suggests to the
state prison board of control way
of obviating the present necessity of
sending Oklahoma prisoners to the
Kansas state pcnitentiary at Lansing,
only to be transferred again to the
Oklahoma state prison st McAlester,
causing the double cost to the state
Of paying transportation charges
each way.
The opinion states that under the
Oklahoma law, as it now exists, the
courts have no other alternative than
to sentence Oklahoma prisoners to
the Kansas penitentiary, but suggests
that the prison board may enter
into negotiations with the authorities
of the Kansas prisontohave prison
ers. that are merely sentenced from
Oklahoma TO that institution, but not
yet taken there, transferred to the
McAlester prison in the same man
ner as prisoners that are already
serving terms at Lansing are trans
ferred.

DIP WHEAT IN BLUE VlTRioL,
Oklahoma Farmers Take Precautions
to Prevent Rust and Smut.

Oklahoma City, Okla.-Farmers in
the northwestern part of the state, in
the great wheat belt Of the south
west. are taking every precaution
possible to prevent smut and rust in
their wheat next spring. Many of
them sowed wheat very late, and be
fore putting it in the ground dipped
1t in blue vitriol and formaldehyde.
1t is claimed that this will prevent
the rust from appearing, which gen.
orally comes just as the plant bios
SONS. Usually when the wheat rusts
the worst is following a very wet
spell just such as that Of last spring,
when much of the wheat was ruined
by rust
