Now, HOW is the manufac-
turer to get a retail outlet in any
locality in the United States =?
Must he secure it through gen
eral publicity, or through adver-
Using in LOCAL NEWSPA-
PERS?
If John Jones, manufacturer
of hose, wants to sell his product
in any or all communities in the
United States, which is the sane
course for him to pursue? That
is the question he must answer
before he commences to adver-
tise.
1t is not a reasonable deduc-
ton that, in order to sell his
hose in Philadelphia, or Balti-
more, or Cleveland, or Seattle,
or Sacramento, or any other
place, the thing for him to do is
to TELL ABOUT HIS HOSE IN
LOCAL NEWSPAPERS in each
community and BACK UP THE
DEALER selling it by educat-
ing the people that it is good
hose to buy and TELLING
THEM WHERE TO BUY IT?
Is it not SANER to follow this
plan than to undertake a general
publicity campaign and touch
only spots here and there
throughout the country?
Is it not better to CONCEN-
TRATE and BUILD up a bust
ness in community at a time
and make each community pay
the manufacturer a PROFIT be-
fore he reaches out to cover the
whole country AT A LOSS?
THE NEWSPAPER IS THE
LOGICAL MEDIUM to use in
introducing any article in any
community. 1t gives the dealer
CONFIDENCE and inspires him
to push the article that is adj
vertised by the manufacturer in
his home town.
How long will it be before
manufacturers realize THAT
NEWSPAPERS must be en-
ployed to PRODUCE ACTUAL
RESULTS-not only to put
goods on dealers shelves but to
SELL THEM AFTER THEY
ARE PUT ON THE SHELVES1

PRINCETON COACHES BLUE.
Line Weak on Offense Which Holds
Backs HELPLESS.

Princeton, N. J.. Oct 3.-The Prince
ton coaches are far from satisfied with
the work Of the football team thus far
The offensive play in particular las
been noticeably weak, due in great part
to the inability Of the line to afford
the backs any sort of interference. The
forwards are slow in getting started
and fail to get into the plays with the
proper spirit. This unexpected weak
ness may prove especially costly to
Princeton's hopes this fall. as the backs
are light, even for Tigers, ard without
a strong interference will be unable to
make Roadway against heavier elevs MS
such as Yale or Harvard.
Princeton has not had a line plung
ing back of first rate caliber since 1907,
and the efficiency of an eleven this
year is largely dependent upon the
possession of a heavy back field man,
who cannot only nit the line hard but
who can throw off tacllers and keep
going. Princetor's backs though light
sre perhaps the speediest that have
been seen here n some time, but lit
lie progress has been made toward

AMBASSADOR Of

Tipsy Tramp Had Given Shah's
Representative an Exciting
Burglar Scare.

MORRISTOWN, April 12.-When Ho-
vannes H. Topakyan, Persian ambas-
sador to the United States. heard some
one moving about in his house late last
night visions Of Hunchakists arose in
his mind. and, frightened at thoughts
that someone was after him, he tele-
phoned to the Morristown police for
aid.
Now. the imperial mansion. occupied
by the ambassador. is located at Morris
Plains. about two miles from Norris
town. n the police declined to go to
the ambassadors assistance, telling
him that his home was not in their
jurisdiction nor anywhere heal 1t. and
to seek aid from the sheriff.
Topakyan finally mustered up cour-
age and with his son and some Of the
servants captured the bold intruder,
who proved to be a drunken tramp.
The tramp was brought to Morristown,
bound hand and foot, with a loaded re-
volver at his head, though the fellow
was SO drunk he could hardly move.
Police Justice Isaac r. Pierson was
cent for early this morning and, sitting
as a justice of the peace, heard the
case. The man finally told the justice
his name was Harry Duray and he had
no home. The justice was unable to
elicit more information and committed
the fellow to Jail to sober up. Topakyan
had telephoned New York newspapers
that he had appealed to the Norris
town police for aid and it had been re-
fused.
Justice Pierson read the imperial rep
resentatIVe a lecture on the subject.
telling him that ne lived way beyond
the Morristown line and had no more
right to appeal to the Morristown po-
lice for aid han he had to ask aid of
the Newark police. by circulating
statements of that nature you do the
police a great injustice" the justice
told the ambassador.
