days, McGurn training out with Sar-

Jim Hoao has not been saying
much, but the way he has put 1t
over Wahilani at his training quar-.

well for the way he is going to work

Jim has boxed many fast rounds
with his partner, and on one osca-

Wahilani out in the sixth round OF
what was going to be ten-round

Fink Is getting into better shape,
has more confidence and knows more
about the game than when he went

The Hawaiians are backing Jim

A MILLION FOR
ADVERTISING
APPROPRIATION HAS
JUST BEEN MADE BY CINCiN-
Natl FIRM AND 1T WILL BE
SPENT IN ONE YEAR IN UNITED
STATES, CANADA, AND MEXICO.

A million dollars advertising appro-
priation is something that makes peo-
pie sit up and take notice 1t does not
happen every day. Yet a Cincinnati
enterprise has just made such an ap-
preparation and it is all to be spent
within the coming l. months, seventy
per cent of it going into the newspa-
pers of the United States, Canada, and
Mexico.
The firm making this appropriation
is Papc, Thompson, Pape & Co, of
Cincinnati, and the money will be
spent in advertising the already well
known remedies manufactured by
these people.
1t is not unusual to hear of million
dollar transactions in real estate. rail
roads, industrial securities. or bond
purchases, but a million dollars poured
into that intangible something, called
advertising, by one firm in one year is
a different kind of a proposition alto
gether. It means at least two things
first, that money properly spent tor
advertising is an investment just as
