WHAT is ADVERTISING?

| Idaho Falls Post: A great many
fail to stinguish-wilfully or other
wise-the difference between news and
advertising. Nearly every day the fell
| low is encountered who wants to give
you some news" but seems very much
offended if you tell him that his
news is advertising, pure and simple
In the last issue of the Rupert Pho
neer-Record a fine distinction is
drawn between news and advertising,
and we present it herewith:
There is a decided difference be-
tween advertising matter and news,
but the fellow who is looking for
something for nothing never appears
to be able to find the distinguishing
line. The anticipation or announce
ment of any event which is to occur
is advertising and nothing else. The
account of something that has happen
ed is news. Every article which APP
pears in any newspaper anticipating
something for its town or community
or advocating some new enterprise or
industry is advertising given freely
and without stint by the publisher in
consideration of the patronage he re-
ceives and for the welfare of his pat
rens. In order to do this the publisher
is entitled to and should have pay for
any advertising which concerns mat
ters not of public nature and at
which an admission fee is charged or
anything is offered for sale, even if
the event is conducted by public in
stitution. All publishers are not only
glad, but anxious to give a respecta-
bic writeup of any event which has
occurred if they can get the particul-
ars and many times go out of their
way to do so, when the interested par
ties do not take enough interest in |
the affairs to report it."

carried by even a fraternal company

There is a limit below which life in
surance cannot be written, and the
government should fix the limit Life
insurance is question little under
stood by the people generally. Too
many do not know the first require
ments of insurance. They want some
thing cheap To meet this popular de-
mand there is perpetual crop of new
fraternal companies that for a brief
time flourish under their cheap rates
and then they pass away, leaving be-
hind thousands Of disappointed men,
leaving their wives and children with
out that protection they have permit
ted themselves to believe they had. 1t
is a crime against society. 1t is time
for the government to step in and stop
it. Let the government establish a

If some of those who are talking
about repairing the old court house
would look up the law they would
save themselves lot of hot air. Why
not first find out what the law is, and
use little common sense-if you have
any? Whatever is done must be done
according to law. Now what is the
law? Can we vote bonds to repair?
If so how long must the bonds run?
If we repair how must we proceed?
How much may be spent, and under
what conditions? What are the pow
ers of the county commissioners? The
most disgusting thing on earth is to
see some of the wise ones" display
ing their ignorance.

Let no man deceive himself. Let us

ness until the Old Dominion Steamsip
company offered him lucrative posi-.
don as one of its stewards. At this Pc
riod Norfolk had become one of the
leading shipping ports in the country
and thousands of Afro Americans were
coming to this port TO become n work
ing factor in its commercial progress.
With Il keen business perception he re-
signed his position with the steamship
company and entered the insurance
and real estate business In this city.
Throughout the south among busi-
ness men Mr.. Dennis S. Aston Is
known. He furnished his office for busi
ness. and it is not to be excelled from
the point of necessary appointments
by many of the leading firms doing this
class of business in Norfolk. Mr.. Ais
ton invested in farm lands and sub
urban properties in the beginning
and stimulated hundreds of young men
to buy real estate and showed n large
number of farmers that were only
renting farms the great possibilities In
owning their farms. By judicious In
vestments he soon became the leading
Negro capitalist in this section.
When he entered business it was not
possible for Negroes to get desirable
property in this city, but today he Is
leading the vanguard that has procur-
ed respectable homes for Negroes, and
his latest purchase was a piece of
property in a section of the city where
the Negro was not allowed to reside
which is valued at over $1,000.
This property adds to the civic beau
ty of Norfolk and is native IDEAL
for the race. He owns thousands OF
dollars of valuable real estate in va
rious sections OF the city and is reach
ing many of the young men Of the
city and helping them to become de-
sirabie factors by getting homes.
The Negro In Norfolk !s getting on
to the spirit Of progressiveness, and
number of commendable enterprises
are being operated. This Is largely
lue to Mr.. Alston's unassuming way
OF helping to promote any commercial
movement that will better the NegrOs
condition.
He Is president of the Ninth Ward
Civic league, which led the fight for
county to the city in order to better
conditiors among Negroes. and after
the annexation Mr.. Aston stood out
for certain improvements that were
about to be denied the colored section.
Consequently over thirty miles of sew
erage are being added to the new part
of the city. and the school facilities
are 100 per cent better
