SECRETARY ROGERS ENTIRELY
RIGHT

The Ansonia Sentinel says: State
Secretary Rogers is on the trail of
breakers of the automobile law. With
the license which he recently issued
to one John E. Tyson of Stamford, he
has made the condition that if he is
again convicted of reckless driving,
his license will be taken from him"
State Secretary Rogers does not in
tend to miss any of the legitimate
business that belongs to his position
as dispenser of automobile licenses
and general referee for the state with
reference to license matters. While
he is not inclined to be severe beyond
what is reasonable he will insist upon
the observance Of the law and the
rules which he lays down. And there
in he is entirely Bridgeport

ADVERTISING METHOD
CHANGED

All business men can recall a form
Of advertising that was prevalent a
few years ago.
The idea was to fool the reader
against his will to peruse an odycrtise-
ment, 1t was assumed hat the read.
er was hostile to all advertising, and
the only way to gel him to read it was
to pcrpetrate a fraud,
The practical results was 10 anger
the reader at so childish a deception,
and few goods were sold in that fash
ion.
The big dry goods merchants we're
the leaders in mordern advertising.
They were early with the discovery
that the public does not bsye to be
csioled, teased or defrauded in order
10 get advertising read. They found,
on the contrary. that the public was
eagerly turning to the advertising to
get its questions answered, that the
man who did not answer those ques-
tons was sighted. and the man who
did answer them got the business.
The public does not tura to adver.
Using for wit, humor or monkey
capers. 1t simply asks a merchant to
tell about some Of his most attractive
offerings, to describe them so clearly
they can know Just about what they
are and what they will cost.
The department store men have
built up their great business by recoq
nizina that the public wants the new.
Of their stores. and is governed in it,
purchases by the presentation Of tina
news in advertising. -Ex.

ANOTHER PROOF

and called to our attention, makes
another proof moi only OF the ethclcn-
cy Of newspaper advertising but OF
the need Of such advertising right
here in OkoIona.

ling Gold Medal Hour (which, BY
the way, is an excellent article and
extensively advertised by the manu-
fscturers) for some time and doing
what he could, in a quiet way, to
further its sale through his W effort.
Mr., Conner carried an advertisement
in the Trades Day edition Of the
Messenger and devoted two lines Of
space to a mention Of this -four, giving
a special price good for that day
only, The known net result Of these
two lines is the bringing to Mr.
Conner Of two regular customers

other a few miles on, in the coun.

TRADES DAY.

increasing to torrents set in, and, with
occasional let ups, lasted until alter
the noon hour, thereby rendering all

caused some hearts to sink while

the general good feeling.
The city had provided two bress
bands and two free cold drink stands
to supplement the program Of entertain.

original plan and contributed to by

THE SPARK OF CHlvALRY.

Men are not polite enough to women,
nor do women appear to appreciate
politeness. Often we have seen an old
man arise and offer his seat in a
crowded car to a young woman. Most
frequently she has taken it without
even smile, a nod or thank you"
These little courtesies by women are
appreciated by gentlemen, and they
keep alive the spark of chivalry.-
Tyler Courier-Times.
A man who in early life imbibed
the spirit Of the Old South can never
feel comfortable seated while women
are standing But all these old men
will soon be dead; then what will be-
come of the spark of chivalry?

Since its organiaztion the demo.

Since its organization the demo
cratic party never suffered a worse
defeat than in 1904. 1t was demon
strated then that reactionist could
not hold the democratic vote. Neither
can one hold it in 1912. The majority
of democrats have their faces toward
the rising sun and will follow no
leader who orders a retreat. There is
hope in the assurance that a large ma.
jority of the democrats in congress
are progressives.
