Plans are rapidly maturing for the
dedication OF the Diamond Street

catory sermon will be preached by
Bishop Earl Cranston. D. D.. LID, Of
Washington, D. C. Special music has
been prepared by the church choir
for this service us well as the ser.
vices of the week following the dedi.
cation of the building.
The church is handsome edIfice
and no pains or expense has been
spared In making It n beautiful and
modern structure.
In connection with the announce.
ment OF the dedication services his,
tory Of the denomination will prove
Interesting.
All available records lead to the
conclusion that there was preaching
in Palatine earlier than 1851 but not
untfl that date was house OF wor.
ship begun. The first board OF trus.
tees consisted OF Allen D. Crane, John
T. Hill, Chas. Swearingen, Jos. Sterl.
ing and Isaac Courtney. 1t is pre-.
sumed this board had charge OF the
building OF the old Diamond street
church which still stands and is oc.
cupled by the ]. s. Haggerty Com
pany. This structure is OF brick and
was in Its day fine church.
The first record Of a quarterly con-
ference OF the Palatine circuit is Au-
gust 8, 1851 with the names Of Isaac
Cuseman, lslah Hawkins, Isaac Mar
tin, Jacob Swisher, z. NJ. Austin. Isaac
Courtney and ]. NJ. Sterling, promi.
nently mentioned among the officials.
AT the annual conference held at
Parkersburg, April, 1853, and presid.
ed over by Bishop Morris, Palatine

bined, with William E. Williamson in
charge. Prominent among the off.
cials at this time were the names OF
w! D. Crane. j. NJ: Sterling, EN-. Aus:
Tin, j Joshua McElfresh, Richard Thorn.
as, Ell Satterfeld, VIM. Malone and
Amos vangilder.
In 1888 the circuit was again divld.
ed and the Palatine circuit was uni.
ted with the Hills S. H.. Houlttown
and Pleasant Valley.
In 1892 Palatine. circuit was again
detached from the circuit and made
station with Rev. E. H. ]. King as
pastor.
At the quarterly conference held
August /, 1919, the name OF the
church was changed from the Pala
tine church to the Diamond street
church and q new board OF trustees
appointed consisting Of the following:
!! Andrew Sterling. T. T. Hoult. ]. NJ
Smith. William Grey, NJ. T. Levelle
and Chas. Robinson. This organiza
tion remains practically intact at the
present day.
The first steps toward a new build
ing were taken in May, 1874, when the
lot which is now graced by the hand
some new Office was purchased, how
ever, at that time no thought Of build
ing church on this site was thought
OF as the lot was purchased for a par

1897, when committee was appoint

THE POWER OF ADVERTISING
Has Proved to Be Stronger Than Merit
Constant Pounding Bound to
Bring Results.

What mighty power is advertising!
The best advertised four-ply "all lin
en- collars of the United States are
largely cotton and will not wear one
tenth as long as the pure linen collars
of England and Germany. that cost no
more. But who knows about the su-
perior foreign collars in this coun-
try?
The best copper and zinc plate for
photo engravers in the world is made
In Germany, but not advertised. AS
result American zinc and copper is
taking the English market through
sheer force Of advertising. You may
think and say what you will about the
mightiness of truth and its ultimate
prevalence but we must admit the
force and effect of advertising, which
amounts to this: II a statement is con-
stantly dinged into our ears we are
silly enough to incline to believe 1t to
the point of biting on the bait.
Advertising is stronger than the
merit Of the article. In this age q
man might make the best article Of
the sort ever made and live in pow
erty unless he advertise 1t, while his
neighbor, making a distinctly inferior
article rapidly becomes "malefactor
Of great wealth" through audacious,
not to say mendacious. advertising.
The bold advertiser Is the apothe-
osis Of the hannel-mouth braggart we
all knew in school, the empty. bottom
less blowhard. who impressed his per-
sonality on his less aggressive fellows
by sheer gall and brass and became
the leader in his little circle. OF course,
the teacher and the shrewder boys dis
cerned the fakir beneath all his noise
and dust, but the gullible many did
not and who does not know that
fools. in all the seven ages of man.
are an overwhelming majority?

DOCTORS SHOULD ADVERTISE
c. c. Young, Chicago Physician,
Creates Stir In Address to
Texas Practitioners.

THE one great way of educating
the people in the proper manner, of
creating public sentiment that will
further the interests Of our profes-
sion as well as any other class of
men. is through the press-both news
papers and magazines"
This was the keynote of an address
delivered before the Bexar County
Medical society at San Antonio, Tex,
recently, by DR.. c. c. Young of Chi
cago. The declaration created a stir
among the physicians present.
Continuing. Doctor Young said he
was unable to understand why doc
tors should not write for newspapers
as well as any other citizens, without
calling down on their heads the ad-
verse criticism of their fellows, and
that this was the one way of educa-
ting the people so that they would be
able to guard against charlatans and
quacks He asked why should not the
doctor advertise as does any other
professional man. II he faithfully rep
resented his ability and equipment?

IT is A MISTAKE

Many have the idea that anything
will sell If advertised strong enough
This is great mistake. True, q
few sales might be made by advertis-
ing an absolutely worthless article
but 1t is only the article that is
bought again and again that pays.
An example Of the big success of a
worthy article is the enormous sale
that has grown up for Cascarets
Candy Cathartio. This wonderful rec
ord Is the result of great merit sue
cessfully made known through per-
sistent advertising and the mouth-to-
mouth recommendation given Cas-
carets by its friends and users.
Like all great successes, trade pi-
rates prey on the unsuspecting pub
lie, by marketing fake tablets similar
In appearance to Cascarets. Care
should always be exercised in pur-
chasing we'll advertised goods, espe-
oially an article that has a national
sale like Cascarets. Do not allow .
substitute to be palmed of on you.

INITIATE AMERICAN METHODS
Periodicals Influenced by styles
In This Country.

The influence of American methods
Of advertising in foreign magazines,
periodicals and street pillars is very
large representation of enterprising
American firms, who laud their wares
and call attention to the location of
their foreign offices, but there is a
perceptible imitation of the American
style. So far as recollection serves,
the method of grouping advertise
ments of the same nature is dis
tinctively American. The grouping
here referred to is that now custom
ary in our American magazines under
such heads as Educational Institu-
tions," Hotels" "sanitaria," Auto
mobiles" Health and Other Foods"
and 80 forth This method Of group
ing is entirely familiar to the Amer
lean reader. 1t is only Of late. how
ever, that it has come into vogue in
foreign magazines and periodicals. 1t
is now as customary abroad as at
home.
But not only is our method imi-
tated, the foreign periodicals has
caught the American spirit also. II
the question were asked, just what Is
the American spirit Of advertising, 1t
would be answered by no set of
words SO completely and entirely as
by the expression: "Its peculiar
candor and breezy colloquialism." We
have seen fit to depart from the staid,
rather dogmatic style Of advertising
of our immediate ancestors and have
entered upon campaign OF CONNER
cial education of the masses in Ian
guage "entirely understood Of the peo-
pie" The conservative American pa
per is as much under the sway Of this
modernism as was the most radical
or advanced paper in the olden or. for
that matter, in modern times.
This spirit the foreign magazine
and the press In general have caught.
And the foreign advertiser is as ready
today to talk familiarly and colo
quially with his customer as is his
American exemplar. The customer
is asked whether he likes the taste
of his coffee" or whether he has
used such and such soap" or "wheth-
er he prefers this or that style Of
shellfsh," with the same breezy can
dor as in America.
There is one feature in which this
candor expresses Itself. however.
which has not it's counterpart In Amer
lea as yet. And that is the free pub
lication to the reader of the maga-
zine that this space costs fifteen
marks per monthly insertion" and
publishing this price in the one inch
in each case not as yet occupied by
advertising matter of its class.
Whether this will find imitators in
America or not remains to be seen.
Occasionally the price paid by the ad-
vertiser leaks out into the conscious
ness Of the general public. but this oc-
ours rather through the inadvertence
or through the candor of the adver-
tiser himself than through the man
agement Of the periodical. An in
stance of this kind was brought to
public attention through the fact that
an advertiser in one Of our contem-
poraries called attention to the fact
that he was paying $4,000 for the
double page of which he was availing
himself at the time and then proceed
ing to tell his readers why he did SO
and why he could afford to do so. But
this habit or procedure is not as yet
common in America. though quite SO
abroad.-Newark IN. J) News.
