ADVERTISING TALKS
! WRITTEN By
WILLIAM e. FREEMAN.

Two hundred and one men
interested in the AUTOMO-
BILE INDUSTRY recently as
sembled in New York City to
do honor to JOHN G. WET
MORE, who has been affec-'
tionately called "THE DEAN
OF THE AUTOMOBILE
PROFESSION"
Getting together to show
their appreciation of the work
done by Mr.. Wetmore through
newspaper publicity for the
automobile industry was not
all that was back of that gath
erinIg.
The fact is that these men,
although competitors in bust
ness, have gotten together on
other occasions for the pur-
pose of BETTER DEVELOP
ING their industry.
There is not another line of
business that ! know where
the element of the SQUARE
DEAL has got to enter into a
transaction as much as in the
sale of an automobile.
The ADVERTISING put
out by these gentlemen has
been, in the main, very
STRAIGHT 70 RWARD.
Each manufacturer, of course,
tries to sell his own product
tries to convince as large a
part of the public as possible
that his product is as good as
any.
But there is no knocking"
of competitors. And all of
them, in order to accomplish a
sale must CONVINCE the IN
DlVlDUAL PURCHASER of
the lasting qualities of the ma
chine.
The automobile manufac-
turerS of the country. after
wandering around in variOuS
publicity fields, with more or
less measure of success, have
finally concluded that the
DAILY NEWSPAPER AN
SWERS THEIR PURPOSE
BETTER THAN ANY
OTHER FORM OF PUBLIC
ITY.
So the greater volume off
their business is given to the
daily newspapers, and it was.
because Of the work done in
this field by Mr.. Wetmore
that they presented vim with.
a handsome testimonial of
their appreciation.
We all know how the auto
mobile industry has DEVELOPED
in the last decade and the
sentiment Of the meeting the
other night WAS THAT THE
SURFACE HAD JUST BEEN
SCRATCHED.
The development of the
truck automobile is now heing
considered ny a great many
manufacturers. AMI the result

DIR. BROWN INDICTED
FOR MURDER
To Be Tried For Death
of Rena Spiller
He Is Recluse and Physician of
Brighton

The Grand Jury OF the Somerset
/ Supreme Court found, Tuesday, an in
dictment against DR.. H. S. Brown of
! Brighton, for murder. This case will
come up for trial probably next week.
Brown is now out under bond This
is case that has aroused the interest
of nearly everybody in the northern
part of the county. The doctor was
arrested the first of August after an
investigation by Sheriff John A
Mooers, charged with the murder of
Mrs. Rena Spiller.
Prior to that time Mrs. Spiller, with
her husband, had been living in Skow-
hegan. The Saturday night previous
they went to the home of her sister
Mrs. Cecil Jewett, in West Athens
That Sunday afternoon word came to
Sheriff Mooers that Mrs. Spiller had
suddenly died He left in the night
time for West Athens and before noon
the next day he had arrested Brown.
1t is claimed by the State that DR.
Brown performed an illegal operation
upon Mrs Spiler from which she died.
The doctor is represented by W. II.
Hawes, Skowhegan's youngest attor-
ney The State will be represented by
Attorney General w. r. Pattangall of
Wateryille
DR.. Brown is somewhat of an
original character but is generally
liked in his home town, and it is
claimed that he has had good bust
ness. Aside from his practice he
occasionally, with his dog goes into
the big timbers and travels for days
away from home hunting for roots
which he sells for medicinal pur-
poses. Sometimes he is gone for
week He takes no extra clothing
and no food He plans to sleep
nights under fir trees, cutting down
the limbs to come over him. He
catches fish for his living while
away His only weapon and tool is
small hatchet, and his only com
panion, his dog.
DR.. Brown has two brothers, one
a physician in Bangor and the other
a hay dealer in Clinton. The doctor
lives in Brighton village, his home
being situated under the hills. 1t
is simple but pleasant place. A
stream runs directly under his house,
and he has a piazza running along
side of the house, and he can sit on
this and catch trout from the brook.
He lives alone He is quiet and un-
assuming in every way. He declares
he is not guilty of the crime charged
against him, and says that he per
formed an operation on the woman
only after she had inflicted wounds
on herself. This operation was the
only chance for her life; but be
cause of the wounds she had made
she could not rally from the shock.
