ADVERTISING TALKS
WRITTEN BY
WILLIAM c. FREEMAN.

! saw a remarkable adver-
tisement in a recent issue of
the Arkansas Gazette Little
Rock.
1t was an advertisement Of
the O. K. HOUK PIANO CO.,
headed-"UP WITH THE
STANDARD OF HONESTY:
DOWN WITH THE SHIELD
OF DECEPTION"
After an introduction de-
filming the policy of the firm,
the following reasons were
printed. They are so full of
SOUND COMMON SENSE
that they are reproduced here
as a guide to the beginner in
advertiSing-and to some adj
vertiSerS as well:
1--WE CONDUCT 40 FAKE PRIZE
CONTESTS FOR THE FOLLOWING
REASONS:
Goods that have value will sell
at that value.
"Shrewd buyers do not expect to
purchase at LESS than rightful value.
The house that fixes prices and
hdheres consistently TO them must OF
necessity fix conservative prices.
STANDARD VALUES INSURE
REGULAR PRICES. When there is
no regularity OF price there is no GER
tainty of value.
1T does not require an expert to
buy from one-price no-commission
house. In the multi-price house IT
requires skillfulness OF the buyer to
insure correctness OF price
IF too much is asked to start with.
how are you to judge what is really
correct? Can you depend on the man
who confessedly tried TO get too much
In the beginning?
If you know piano value well
enough TO protect yourself against
the multi-price plan, why not fix the
RIGHT PRICE in the beginning?
When a salesman asks $500 for
piano and then takes $500 he con
fesses a willingness TO get Sl0O-of
your money which does not belong to
him"
Here is another phrase that
Is sound:
'NALUE REPRESENTS
THE COST OF PRODUC-
TION, PLUS 4 REASON
ABLE PROFIT. THAT Is
AS IT SHOULD BE, AND
IS FAIR TO ALL"
NJ ANY ADVERTISERS
throughout the United States
using local newspapers are
taking a decided stand for the
ONE PRICE SYSTEM.
They are not putting FIG
TITlOUS values on their
merchandise. They buy it as
reasonably as they can and
add legitimate profit to the
cost and then sell it.
That's all there is 10 con-

EDITOR N PRISON,
URGED FOR NEGRO
UNWR|TTEN LAW
Walker, Whom He Defended,
Hanged After Being Shot
in Court.

ATLANTA, Dec. 7-The most desperate
light ever made In Georgia by a negro
was lost yesterday when r. p. Walker.
after being shot in the head in the
court room by the brother Of his vic
tim. was hanged in Washington. Ga.
for the murder of capt. Charles s. Hoi-
lenshead.
Capt. Hollenshead, one OF the best
known farmers In wilkes County, was
found dead, with a bullet shot through
his body. For n time there was no clue
to his murderer. but finally walker.
who had been working on his place. was
arrested, charged with che crime.
Walker owed Hollenshead a large sum
or money and had refused to pay II. lie
had made threats against his employer.
A small band OF citizens of Washing
ton stormed the jail one night. took
the negro out into the woods and made
preparations to hang him. with the
rope around his neck he was told that
he had time to confess and pray. He
told them that he was guilty. When
the lynchers. maddened by drink. were
about to swing him up he tossed the
''fN 'Ob' "i'u'iu III HUN dlu udSneu
into the woods. The members OF the
mob pursued. but were so befuddled
with liquor that they were not able to
follow the negro. and he escaped.
But after a time he was recaptured.
While hts trial was on Julian st. George
White. editor of the Broad Axe. In At
lanta. republished a story from a Chi
cago newspaper in which It was
charged that Walker had killed Hollens-
head a the white man had beer
too friendly with the wife of the negro.
Great indignation was aroused in
Washington by this story. a warrant
charging criminal libel was sworn out,
and White was carried to Washington
for trial there. Since that time negroes
have been working hard for Whites
release. II Is charged that Walker de-
MED the story White printed.
In the meantime Walker was SEN
fenced to the gallows and was taken 70
Augusta for safekeeping. When the
time arrived for the execution he wa.
started back to Washington. Although
handcuffed and bound with ropes. he
leaped OF the car and escaped in the
darkness.
Washington offered $500 for hi. car.
ture. and he was caught, carried irtc
the courtroom to be resentenced. He
was brought face to face with Johr
Hollenshead. brother OF the man he hat
killed. As the sentence was being pro
nounced by the Judge, Hollensheat
drew a revolver n shot the negro II
the head. Friends took H~ollenshsut
away. while the negro was hurried bacl
to jail. Hol!enshead is III. No lega
action has been taken In his case. and &
IL not believed that any will be taken.
