What If All Advertising Were Eliminat.
ed?

In the September Woman's Home Com.
panion appears an interesting editorial
on advertising, an extract from which
follows
"Can You imagine what existence
would be like If all advertising were
elimnated2
1T would mean more than the alb
sence of advertising in the pages of pc
riodicals and newspapers. 1t would
mean that the grocer would not have
his name or his business printed over
his door or on his window. The drug
stores would not display the globes of
colored water. The minister would not
announce the topic OF his next sermon,
nor the wid-week meetings, from the
pulpit. There wouldn't even be sign
posts at country crossroads, nor on the
street corners in towns and cities.
"If you should visit a strange com
munity where there was no advertising
whatever, you would realize how abso-
lutely dependent you are upon advertis-
ing. If you wanted to go to store.
particularly the best store, no one could
direct YOU, for that is Advertising
word-of-mout advertising, which is
sometimes as important and as valu-
able as any other. Frankly, you would
find it practically impossible to live with
out advertising, although you might
manage to exist after a fashion.

about minute if his Unsuitable curios-
ity We're directed to advertising. To his
first question we could promptly and
truthfully reply that man advertises
to make money. But for the next logi-
cal inquiry, How does he make money
by advertising the answer isn't so easy.
Possibly the childish mind might be sat
isfied with the explanation that adver-
tising increases the volume of business,
which is true, of course; but it is neith-
er comprehensive nor final.
'You may follow it through ever So
many ramifications. and in the end you
will find that advertising pays for the
simple reason that it renders a service
to YOU and me and to the man and
woman next door.

BULL MOOSE PARTY
ORGANIZED CLUB
Barre Followers of Roosevelt Met In
Miles Hall Last Evening and Elect
ed Al. H. Gerhardt As
President.

Fifty followers of the rd-party flag
met in Miles hall last evening and took
steps toward forming what it is hoped
will be a permanent Progressive club.
The new organization starts with a
healthy membership roll, and one charter
member stated this morning that pro-
visions had been made for the reception
Of additional members before the dawn
Of election day. Enthusiasm was rife
and before the Progressives started to
elect their officers several members of
the party had voiced their views on
the political situation. Among those
who contributed to the speechmaking
were Rev. J. w. Barnett, s. d. Allen,
Eugene Sullivan, William Jack, George
w. Mann, Al. Fl. Gerhtrdt and Edward
Ward.
DIR. c. f. Camp presided and William
H. Duthie was elected secretary pro
tenn. The chairman outlined the pur-
pose of the netting and first submitted
the question of organizing the proposed
club to a vote. 1t appeared to be the
unanimous sentiment OF the Bull Moose
men that such a club would help to
sustain interest in the campaign and
the election of officers followed. AL
II. Gerhardt was elected president and
the following vice presidents were chos-
en-, first vice president, William Jack;
second, Ezra White; third, s. n. Parker
James s. Milne, jr., was elected to serve
ms permanent secretary and w. II.
Duthie was appointed treasurer The
executive committee comprises the fol-
lowing men: Noble S. Love, Fred C.
Eaton, DIR. L. L. Leonard, James NJ.
Even.
Other meetings of the Progressive club
are planned and it is likely that the
newly formed political organization will
continue to give tangible indications of
its existence.
