NEWSPAPER ADS. BEST.
$50 Into Every Home and Are Read
BY All," Says Prominent Banker.

In speaking before the members of
the Mississippi Bankers Association,
R. L. Gurney, in charge of the saw
ings department of the Common
wealth Trust Company of st. Louis,
characterized the different devices
and advertising plans sold to bankers
of the United States as lemons"
Some of these lemons are pro-
grams, dignified announcements of
simply the banks name, capital and
location; special writeups and spas
modic instead of constant use of
newspaper space, he said.
He outlined plans for writing bank
advertisements and urged the bank
ers present to do this work them
selves. He used a stereopticon to re-
produce the newspaper advertise
ments used by the Commonwealth
Trust Company and showed many
which had brought in depositors to
open savings accounts. In speaking
of the value of using newspaper
space only he said:
1.-THE first step in taking up the
advertising for your bank, and it is
step of paramount importance, is
to decide to spend your appropria-
tion in buying newspaper space only.
You will find it difficult to adhere
rigidly to this decision, but it will
pay we'll to do so.
your bank is for all classes of
people, and there is no way to sc
effectively present appeal for bust
ness to all classes as in the columns
of the local newspaper. 1t not only
reaches all classes, but goes into
every home, where it is read by al.
most every member of the family
The daily newspaper is a controlling
likewise a. compelling, factor in the
daily life of every man and woman
and we ought really to say every bo!
and girl, for children are omniverou:
readers nowadays.
"The shortest and most direc
route to the attention of all the peo
pie is through the columns of tn,
: newspaper, for it is daily read b,
: business men, professional men, mer
chants, artisans-all alike. Men AM
, women, too, want their favorit
l newspaper the very minute it come
j, off the press, for they crave the new
/ served up red hot. They also buy
n to read the advertising columns"

MUST HAVE TAIL LIGHTS
Automobiles, Motorcycles and Bicy-
cles Must Be Properly Equipped
Hereafter.

There have been several arrests
the past week of automobilists found
running without lights or with only
headlights. The law is very strict
as to there being tail lights also, and
the police are enforcing it without
fear or favor.
There seems some difference of
opinion as to wether the law includes
wagons and carriages, and until this
is decided it is said no attempt will
be made here to apply it to them.

AGED AIR KING
FACING A DUEL
Court of Honor Now Deciding
Whether Count Zeppelin
Must Fight Explorer.

BERLIN. May 23.-The army duelling
controversy. which was quickened by the
recent fatal combat at Rastatt, in Baden
(where a lieutenant was ordered to fight
bv a court of honor and was killed., was
given additional public interest today by
the revelation that Count Zeppelin, the
idolized "air king may shortly be ord
cred to fight, despite his "A years.
The Germania, the official organ of the
Roman Catholic Center party, which is
agitating for the abolition of the duel,
now brings the fact to light. 1t APP
pears that Count Zeppelin discharged
from the service of the Zeppelin Arctic
alrship expedition a Polar explorer named
Lerner After determinations the count
was provoked to challenge his ex-em
ploye to duel.
The challenge was accepted, but before
a court of honor the count admitted that
he had acted in haste, and Lerner with
drew his statement A civil suit was
then started, in the course of which Ler-
ner expressed regret that he had with
drawn his aspersions, and the matter was
again referred to a court of honor, which
will give it's decision regarding the neces-
sity of a duel when the pending law suits
are settled

PARIS, May Fashionable women
end their dressmakers arc in despair.
The ladies say that it is almost impos-
sible to wear a costume Of any origi-
nality without seeing It copied in cheap
materials by the little "couturiers." AS
one young woman Indignantly puts it,
we notice our caricature at every
moment, and We are absolutely de-
fenseless. We are watched everywhere
at the races. at the theater in the
Bots. and naturally in the street so
we are coming 10 the adoption Of the
simplest costumes, the sole merit OF
which is perfect cut We shall be well
dressed and no more"
Even a rather casual inspection Of
the toilets at promenades has shown
how thoroughly this grievance is 1usti-
fed. Whole battalions Of women trip
along az If they were clad in uniform,
the costumes which have excited their
admiration being furnished TO various
big establishments in dozens at time,
May Return to Old Custom.
The big dressmakers are up in arms,
and are devising ways and means for
the protection Of their creations. Thus
careful watch is kept over protesting
customers, who visit, but in reality to
have good look round and to take
mental notes accordingly, and they are
doing their utmost to obtain the ex-
pulsion from races Of people who

HURD'S and THE
"OTHER KIND"

It's a trait of human nature to
draw comparisons. By comparisons
only can one reach a true estimation
of relative values.
Take, for instance, a box of Hurd's
Stationery, place it alongside a box
of any other stationery, compare the
two for appearance. quality and finish
and it will take but a glance to de-
termine which has the preference.
Leading stationers everywhere sell
Hurd's Stationery because they know
IL is The Best.
Dallas is one Of the few smaller
cities in oregon where box Of
Hurd's Stationery can be obtained.
We sell it because it is the best sta
tionery made. and because the prices
are within the reach OF every purse.

DON'T KNOCK THE KNOCKER
English Language insufficient to Do
Subject Justice.

Subject Justice.
Editor Observer Will you please
tell us by what right you attack one
of the institutions of the Willamette
valley in such a rude manner as you
adopt in your editorial of the issue
of the 18th?
Do you not know that it is the
God given privilege of some people
to knock the rest of us poor mortals
who have no more sense than to try
to be progressive? OF course the
knocker in Dallas is in a hopeless
minority, but that doesn't make any
difference if the knocker has the dis
position of a louise, you must put up
with him because a wise law makes
it as much of crime to kill him,
as to kill decent man.
You must let the knOcker have ac-
cess to your private office whenever
he wishes, and tell him your busi-
ness and let him knock because he is
a good fellow-almost as good a fel-
low as a polecat.
lie knows ne is not telllnS the
truth when he says the country is
all run out, and worn out, but if he
told why he does not get a crop the
same as his neighbor he would eX-
plain the reason why the bosom of
his trousers wears out first, every
time.
The knocker is not any more nu-
merous in the Willamette valley than
he is anywhere else, in fact, not quite
so numerous as in some places, but
he is just as persistent in thrusting
his malodorous personality into So
ciety of real humans, and deserves |
as much recognition as is given a |
coyote-almost.
You must not knock the knocker
Mister man, because, in the first
place, the English language handicaps
you; it is too poor in cuss words. In
the second place, it is as useless to
try to purify him as to try to cleanse
a buzzard's nest
Let him go, he will die some day
and the air will be better to breathe
