LOOT WAS QUICKLY RETURNED
Advertising OF Mexican General
Whose Word Was as Good as
Hs Bond Brought Results.

ParrA Mexico. has just illustrated
the old adage that IT pays to adver-
tise. And the illustration is SO pleas
ing to those people who believe in
advertising that It is worthy OF COM
ment.
Recently General So-and-So gave
out an interview TO the afternoon pa
per there which said that, unless the
people who had been working at col
lecting loot changed their ways he
would cut their heads of. There had
been a pretty fairish battle or two
IN Parral streets and while the sol
diers were engaged in combat others,
not so busy swiped nearly everything
that was loose. So the general said
that in homes where loot was found
II would make IT necessary for him to
amputate the heads Of the guilty per
petfators. The paper printed 1t, and.
from the time OF the appearance OF
the first copy on the streets there was
a stampede to be the first TO return
stolen property.
BY the break of dawn the next
! morning the streets in front OF the
city building were a mass OF drays,
wagons Of all descriptions and per
sons in carriages, on horseback, with
many Citizens on foot" with loot TO
a fare-you-well. A quarter OF a mil
lion dollars worth Of plumber was
taken back and deposited with the best
wishes of the plunderers in front OF
the magistrate and thus one OF the
biggest advertising campaigns was
proven efficient.
In the bunch we're shoes worth fifty
thousand dollars, shoes OF all sorts
and sizes and conditions. There were
English shoes. Lynn. Massachusetts
shoes and home talent shoes from
Mexico.
There were mantillas, for a MILL
merry store had been looted. and there
T were ready-made clothes, for thes'
emporiums had also been included IL
the plundering.
But the advertisement OF maj
- whose word was known to be as goo
as his bond, as any advertisers shout
be, brought the business and so niue

SUCCESSFUL ADVERTISING
NOT GOVERNED BY RULES
BY BERT M. MOSES,
President Association Of American
Advertisers-

President Association Of American
Advertisera
Many things In life are more or
less regulated by fixed rules.
There are presidents to follow. and
experience goes a long way toward
telling US what to do next time.
In advertising, however, II is my BE-
lief that there are no fixed laws, and
success Is something that has to be
worked out independently OF what has
been done by others.
In brief. every man has to work out
| his own salvation.
The thing that wins today II likely
TO make a failure tomorrow.
Not so very long ago one OF the
biggest and most successful advertis-
ers OF today, In introducing his prod
uct, gave a dozen packages OF goods
free to every retailer in his line.
The response to the advertising that
followed this gift was quick and al
most universal.
The goods went with 8 surprising
rush. and the sale still continues big.
Naturally the advertiser thought
the underlying cause OF his success
was the giving away or free goods.
Quite recently this same advertiser
introduced another article In the same
territory where he had made his pre-
vious big success
He followed identically the same
plan Of giving away free goods. and
used precisely the same mediums for
his advertising
The second article. by the way. was
one which is presumably far more
standard than the first.
Now. do you suppose this advertiser
duplicated his first success on hii
second venture7
Not on your life. Helenl
He made just as big failure In tho
second instance as he made big sue
cess in the hrst.
What the trouble was no one really
knows. although dozen dineren

Rev p. j. Lydon, Cathedral Duluth,

la Sale Literary Society: On Febru-
airy s, the students of the La Sale
Literary and Dramatic Society under
the direction of Brother Victor, played
Half-Back-Sandy" in the Cathedral
Auditorium. The play is a comedy in
three acts dealing with modern Univer-
sity life. The title role was well filed
by Albert Scanlon. Prominent parts
were taken by Edward Dillon, Archie
Mcdowell, Harry Ryan, Frank Kelly,
George Wagner, John Hook and
Clarus Graves.
The amateur actors left with the large
audience a clear conviction of their
dramatic talent and training, and We
think an equally clear conviction that
the Modern University is losing the
spirit of seriousness and that it's stu
dents are too busy to study.
Duluth: Several Courts of Foresters
visited st. Anthony's Court, Duluth, on
