Talks on Advertising

TN historic Faneuil Hall, in Boston.
August I, 1911, the largest conven-
ton of advertising men that has ever as
sembled met to exchange ideas.
The convention planned by the Asso-
ciated Advertising Clubs of America, embracing
representatives of newspaper, magazine, outdoor
and street-car advertising. More than two thou
sand advertising we're there.
If you will look back ten or fifteen years you
will remember that the advertising he
exists today was unknown then. Now, through
out this wonderful country of ours, some of the
brightest minds are engaged in the business Of
advertising.
The keynote of the Boston convention
the general spirit of upift in advertising lately
noticeable in all advertising mediums. The
gospel of better and cleaner advertising dominated
the convention. The responsibility of advertising
mediums to their readers acceded, and
determination was made to exclude from decent
publicity mediums any advertising that bordered
on the fake swindle immoral. thereby pro-
noting feeling of absolute confidence on the part
ofthe public in the merits of all things advertised.
The Boston convention was an important
success and its influence will be felt throug hout
the entire country.

The New York Post has come out
in bitter arrangement against the plan
of Major-Gcneral Leonard Wood,
chief of staff, to establish permanent
regimental stations In the tropics,
and as Hawaii is to figure largely
in that plan the following dcnuncia-
ton of the Post Is of vital interest:
The latest scheme to upset the army
is the plan of the chief of staff to
establish permanent regimental sta
tons in the tropics. The idea " to
select certain organizations for home
stations and some for posts in the
Philippines. Hawaii and along the
Panama Canal. AS the plan is given
out in Washington, its details are as
follows:
The organizations will remain at
these stations. and only the personnel
will be changed. This will make It
possible to have gradual changes, as
the tours Of duty Of individuals ex-
pire, and will avoid the necessity of
transporting an entire regiment, with
officers and men, animals and full
camp and garrison equipment, as Is
now the case. There will be, It is
estimated by General Wood, ma
terial saving in this item OF cost, and
It would have the further advantage
of equalizing the foreign service
among the officers. There would al
ways be an experienced regiment in
each locality. There might be dis
advantage In the transfer of officers
from one regiment to another and the
separation Of an officer from a rcgi-
ment with which he has been con-
nected and with which he desires to
continue for service for sentimental
reasons. But General Wood believes
1t would be possible to reassigned
him to his old regiment periodically.
There is little likelihood that there
will be a reduction In the military
force In the Philippines, which now
amounts to about thirteen thousand
men. The movement of this body of
troops every two years means con-
siderable expense; and II II can be
reduced by the plan which General
Wood is now having considered by
the General Staff, It is proposed to
adopt 1t. Individuals would not have
longer to serve in the Philippines or
other foreign stations than they have
now, although 1t is proposed to in
crease this tour of duty from the
present two years TO three years. II
has already been virtually increased
to two and half year, on account
of the need of troops in Texas.
The only thing to be said about this
plan is that It would be the final step
toward breaking Up regimental esprit
de corps. In his report on the troops
in Texas, just out, General Duncan
complains bitterly Of the damage done
by the constant shifting of officers.
What will happen when regiments are
constantly receiving men and officers,
letting others go, and changing nearly
as IA whole every two or three years?
There will thus be certain exiled or
CARNATIONS through which officers
will drift, spending one, two or three
years, as the case may be, as they
are promoted, retired, invaded, de-
tailed or transferred. 1t would be
hard to devise more ingenious
scheme to prevent solidarity in the
service and to make foreign service

CLARK'S REPORT FAVORABLE
...~ TO RUSSIAN IMMIGRATION
OO"' A'ANHHAAAON

Russian immigration to Hawaii Is
taken up at length by Or. Victor :
Clark In the fourth report of the COM
of which have just been received hero.
He draws from the results of immi-
grafton of Russians In the past that
those who remain will rise to respon-
sible positions on plantations, and fur
Their that another limited immigration
may be desirable.
The history Of the Russians coming
and the subsequent developments are
told In the report as follows:
The first Russians brought TO Ha-
wall belonged to peculiar religious
sect and were given homes upon a
tract of public land on the Island of
Kauai. They soon became dissatisfied

their side of the story. the only ac-

last are not the traditional character
istics of the Russian peasant In his own
country; but no part of all Russia af-
fdrds a precedent for starting home

The Russians arrived In heavy ST.
berian clothing and with the habits of
diet and living of a cold country. They

accustomed with a peasant conscrva- =
tism. This very greatly intcrfercd with
their ability to WORK And lcssencd their
general comfort.
These conditions, coupled with the
irritability usually attending a severe
process OF accllmatization and adjust
ment To the changed environment of an
entirely foreign country. soon bred dis
satisfaction. There was no we'll
grounded complaint that the wages and
hours Of work on the plantations were
not AZ represented by the government
agent In siberia: hut the price Of food
and clothing was said to he much more
than the Russians expected. The cost
of living OF an oriental or Hawaiian
laborcr. or possibly of an American
working man, allowing for lcsscncd cx-
pense for fuel and clothing In the
tropics, II not much more In Hawaii
than II would be upon the mainland
or than probably II Is In Eastern ST.

Russian In Hawaii than 1t does in

as far as was anticipated and doubt

to the plantations from Siberia had lit

pay day.
Educated Men.
Among the Russians were some men
of education who were entirely out OF
place as unskillcd manual laborcrs In
any capacity, and who could have
found useful vocation only in some
American city like New York having a
large Russian colony. These people
soon drifted back to Honolulu and min

by the immigration law, each could get
