THE EVOLUTION OF RETAIL ADVERTISING
By DUNDAS HENDERSON

comic cut does more harm to the ad-
vertisement than good, for it makes the
whole advertisement laughable and
when people laugh at thing they sell
dom buy it. 1t is unfortunate that
many merchants do not realize this
even now. A good joke in picture form
still appears to many of them to be the
acme of successful publicity. But they
are learning.
There are now one or two concerns
who, with strong financial backing.
supply retail merchants with advertise
ments, illustrated by the best artists
and written by advertising experts who
have specially dedicated themselves to
the work and who are paid large sala-
rles for their services. The advertise
ments supplied by those firms are of the
same grade as those used by the large
department stores and national adver-
tlsers; they are scientifically correct
and are guaranteed to bring the retailer
the maximum of returns They are
supplied to the local merchant with the
sole right of use in his own locality.
Owing to the enormous number sold
of each advertisement, they can be DUR
chased at a nominal cost, even as low
as one dollar per week. If the mer-
chant wanted to have the same ads
written for his own individual use, they
would cost him about $500 each. The
sale of this new style of up-to-date ad-
vertisiDg is growing enormously. 1t is
being used in thousands of towns
throughout the country and there are
about $50 high grade statesmen selling it
daily.
The nature of this new up-to-date ad-
vertising service will be seen by the re-
duced fac SMILES of advertisements
shown at the top of this column.
This new style of advertising is called
Syndicated Advertising Service, and its
development is the latest evolution of
retail publicity.
The local retailer has seldom the abil-
ity to write craftsmanship for his news
paper space. 1t requires special train
ing to write advertisements that sell
goods, just as it necessitates training to
practice law or medicine.
When your body is sick you do not
try to cure yourself, you take medical
advice and apply the treatment that ia
given you by the trained physician. If
you are wise, you apply the same prin-
ciple to your sick business, you use the
medicine-successful craftsmanship in
your local newspaper-prescribed for
you by the advertising expert.
The highest grade of expert publicity
service in this country today is embed
led In this new syndicated advertising
service. High priced men with national
reputation in the retail advertising field
are constructing these advertisements.
and the merchant who uses them per-
sistently and constantly in his local
newspaper, is long way on the road
to financial independence
Full particulars of this new syndicat-
ed advertising will be supplied by the
editor of this paper. Get them today.
Their application will materially in
crease your business and give your
newspaper space 100 per cent value as a
business puller.

TO DEVELOP MINERAL
RESOURCES OF OKLAHOMA

The geological survey at Norman is
attempting to carry on a number of
lines of work, the chief object of
|couse, being the development of the
mineral resources of the state. But
at the same time Mr. Gould is so much
of scientist that he never fails to
make collections of queer and rare
specimens from different parts of the
state. During the Christmas holidays
Mr.. L. G. Snider assistant director of
the survey made trip into Marshall
county and found near Woodville a
number of very peculiar fossils. This
region was evidently at one time an
ancient sea bed where a great number
of animals lived and their bones and
shells have been preserved in the
rocks
The finest specimens found, however
were some large fossils or shells
known as ammonites. The time when
Cretaceous rocks were being laid
down the animals which formed these
shells lived in great numbers swim
ming about in long-gone prehistoric
seas.
Professor Gould says that the near
est modern relative of the ammonite
lis the chambered nautilis as ably de-
scribed by Oliver Wendell Holmes
poems This animal now lives in trop-
ical waters. Another animal of same
type of life is the octopus-quid or devil
fish which lives in various warm ocean
waters today
The largest ammonite so far found
in the world comes from Europe.
There is a cast in Washington of a
specimen nearly five feet in diameter.
Some very large forms have been
found near the Black Hills in Dakota
and Wyoming.
Mr.. Snider was successful in secur-
ing what Professor Gould claims to be
the largest ammonite so far discovered
in the southwest. 1t is abeut two feet
in diameter and weighs about $50
pounds It has so far remained un-
packed in the geology rooms and when
cleaned up will be placed on exhibition
in the museum rooms.

agencies to limit the armaments of

expenditures for military purposesS
IS, Because, in the words of Hon.
David j. Foster, chairman of the COM
mittee of foreign affairs in the house
of representatives The initial expense
of the necessary fortifications would
not be less than S25,000,000; in all
probability it would not be less than
$50,000,000 The annual expense of
maintaining such Notifications 1000
miles from home would probably
amount to $5,000,000 With all the
Notifications possible, it is still ap-
parent that in order that the canal
might be of military advantage to the
United States in time of war guard
of battleships at each of its entrances
would be an absolute necessity. 1t is
equally apparent that with such
guard the Notifications would be un-
necessary, If not entirely useless. We
are bound by solemn treaty obliga-
tions to see to it that the canal shall
be and remain forever open to British
ships in time of war as well as in
time of peace, and while it is prob
ably true that no other nation could
claim any advantage by virtue of this
treaty, it is also true that we have
thereby placed ourselves under moral
obligation to maintain an open canal
for the ships of all nations at all
times in war as well as in peace"

TRIES TO
COMMIT SUICIDE
Because He Couldn't Sell Booze Judd
Taylor Drinks Small Bottle
of Iodine.

Declaring that if he couldn't sell
liquor he would die, Judd Taylor yes
Iterday attempted to take his own life,
in the county Jail.
Taylor was released from the Jail
Thursday night, on bond, to appear
in the county court to answer a liquor
charge. Yesterday he was again ar
rested. In some way he succeeded in
getting past the jailer with small
bottle Of iodine. In a short time after
being locked in the cell he drank this
iodine Fearing this would not ac-
complish the desired result he also
drank portion of bottle of liniment
he had been using.
The jailer found the man in a SER
ious condition and summoned the
county physician. After administer
ing an antidote the patient soon re-
covered, the only effect being a very
sick man.

Those who are curious about the
|theatre-and no other single eontribu-
tory to the present day social structure
possesses so general interest-will be
entertained by some striking bits of
information relating to a successful
play. The play is paid in FULL"
written by Eugene Walter, produced
by the United Play company, pronounc-
ed by public and critics the greatest
and most enjoyable American drama
of the time, and shown by actual proof
to be the most notable success the
stage in this country has known.
paid In Full,' is now in only its
third year, its second outside of New
York, yet it has been played a total
of 244 weeks, with 2.O12 performances.
This astonishing result was attained
by five companies simultaneously in
different parts of the United States
and in Canada. Never before had any
one play been acted by so many com
panies No other play could have
stood it.
All last season these five companies
presented this play in New York, in all
the big cities, in the small ones as well,
from coast to coast, from interior Can
ada to the gulf, back and forth, cover
ing the same territory repeatedly de-
manded by theatre managers for re-
turn engagements, frequently as many
as five and six times, invariably doing
greater business on each repeat and
this in cities which too often for
theatrical good turned out a mere cor
poral's guard for other attractions
known as popular successes.
The career of paid in Full is the
most remarkable in theatrical history.
Never since the beginning has a play
grown in favor like this one. Truly
astonishing is it's record of return
visits. Back to a city for the fifth and
sixth time it was sure to draw a big
ger house than before. AS elsewhere,
so in New York. After the play had
run for two years on Broadway the
four other companies were called upon
at various times to renew the New
York engagement, and in every in
stance they were received with all
the enthusiasm that had marked the
course of paid in Full' at the Astor
Theatre. 1t is a New York cast that
will be seen at the Auditorium, Jan
usry 23, when the United Play COM
pany presents Paid in Full" Don't
allow yourself to miss this great play
with New York company and pro-
duction.

v|N|TA TO GET NEW
MASONIC TEMPLE.
Committee Already at Work Securing
Tenants For Store Rooms of
Proposed Building.

Vinita will soon have a new Masonic
temple, if the plans decided on at the
last meeting of the local lodge are
carried out.
The Masons propose to erect a new
building. with fifty-foot frontage on
Scraper street. The building will be
5Ox125 feet and two stories, and will
be modern in every respect. The en-
tire upper floor will be arranged for a
Mason's home. The lower floor will
be divided into two store rooms to
rent for $50 per month each.
A committee, consisting of Judge
Parker, chairman, DR.. Oliver Bagby
and o. l.. Conner was appointed to
formulate plans and to secure tenants
for the two store rooms. The lease
contracts have been prepared and as
soon as tenants can be found for the
two lower rooms work on the project
will be pushed.
With the heavy demand for store
rooms it is not likely the committee
will be long delayed in getting the
tenants. Thus Vinita is assured of an
other handsome new building in the
early spring.

DETECTIVE NURSE CONTINUES
TO CONDEMN MRS. SCHENK
By Associated Press.


Wheeling, W. Va, Jan. 16. = Mrs.
Schenk spent Sunday quietly in her
tower room in theh Jail. She devoted
much time to reading letters, which
are pouring in on her at the rate of a
hundred a day from all parts of the
English-speaking world. All express
sentiments in her favor. One contain
ed a proposal of marriage.
Miss Eleanor Zoecheller, the detec-
tive nurse, took the stand when the
court convened today. "Mrs. Schenk
told me on one occasion" said the wit
ness. in low voice, that could not be
heard in the audience, that when
John Schenk died, would be well
provided for Finally following the
offer to give me one thousand dollars
to poison Schenk, Mrs. Schenck came
to the hospital and begged to be left
alone in the room with Schenl, few
minutes. We left them alone and
there were hot words between them.
On one occasion, remarked to Mrs.
Schenk. Well he is making some i'm
provement,' and she replied, Yes, to
my sorrow"
