WHY THE ADS DIDN'T PAY
Experience of Southern City In Try ing to Attract People-FotloW-
 Up Work Necessary.

One southern city wisely contracted for several hundred dollars worth of advertising space in . leading Chi cago publication during the period of the recent land show.
 Before the land show had closed re- turns came freely in the form of many letters of inquiry from various parts of the country. They looked good" and doubtless represented a goodly percentage of hopeful possibilities. But no one knows and probably no one will ever know, because the local commercial body has no equipment for handling the situation.
 They have no printed matter to send to the correspondents.
 They have no plan for classifying. grouping and referring the several communications to any one who might helpfully respond and deal with them.
 They have no exact data to submit in reply to specific inquiries.
 They have not even some one In the office who is making even for nal or form" reply or at least ac- knowledgment.
 They have no plan. no policy, no program, no machinery, no method. no printed matter, no data. mo nothing!'

Burke Q Hobbs in New
 Madrid

(FRoM NEW MADRID RECORD )
 The greatest series of meet ings ever held in southeast Mis- souri came to a close on last Sun- day night. The Kansas City evangelists. Burke and Hobbs labored for four weeks at the Methodist church, and the suc- cess that crowned their efforts not only revolutionized New Madrid and placed the church in the list of the leading stations of the denomination, but it also at- tracted the attention of other towns all over the state. As a result of their meetings here the evangelists received calls from a large number of towns that had been watching their course here.
 The meetings ran through the most severe month of winter that can be remembered. but the in- clemency failed to affect it's pro- gress. The interest grew with each service, and the Methodist church last Sunday night con- tained the largest audience that ever assembled at a religious meeting in New Madrid.
 The number of conversions was about 200, and 108 have al- ready united with the Methodist church. In this number of ac- sessions, which is over twice as many as were ever received by any pastor of the church, were the most intelligent and sub- stantial citizens of the town; many public officials, profes- sional and business men, farm CTS and artisans were received.
 The Burke and Hobbs meet ing made a profound change in the moral sentiment of the town. On last Sunday a good citizenship league was organized. This league is composed of about twenty-five of the leading cit izens of New Madrid as charter

Charley Smale Has Hi: Train Lighted by Elec-
 tricity.

Inventor Brice of the Mars field new electric lights which for the past year has attracted a world of attention because of his wonderful new invention was in Brinkley Tuesday, with his chief electrician, Mr. Freach, to install a "try out plant on the Arkansas Midland passenger train. This was the first time the new light has ever been tried on a train. A Is battery plant was installed in a small space under one of the seats in the rear coach, and the coach wired SO that when tie lights were turned on, it made things bright as day. Conductor Smale himself an enthusiastic stock holder in the company, was all smiles as the beautiful white light beamed on his handsome countenance. This was possibly the first time that an electric lighted train was ever seen along the route of this train and Con- ductor Charley was not to blame for having the name of his train changed from Doodle Bug" to 'Firefy Limited. ;"
 Inventor Brice accompanied the train out on the first test. Mir. Brice reports the success of l his wonderful invention as more pleasing every day. The parent company-The Modern Electric Co. .-is now operating large pumping plants. big moto rs and machinery from their own power which in itself speaks of the practicability of the new dis covery or invention.
