I'm planning any systematic ad-
vertising campaign. one Of the first
steps is a selection of the best me-
dunn, which, naturally, is the one
reaching the greatest number and
most desirable class of people at the
least proportionate cost. This re-
quirement is fully met by the news
paper, which affords any concern
dealing directly with the people the
quickest and proportionately a very
cheap method of getting in touch
with the greatest number. R. F.

the only real excuse some members have
for coming to the Legislature at all is in

OF course the legislature understands
that there was some embarrassment upon

well. the house and senate, to man, is
glad that the president of the senate got

$30,OUu.OslV ...aI....alIs- Representative
Isaac Sherwood III Ohio, author OF the
service pension bill bearing his name
that recently passed the house. said
that he was not welded to any par
ticular bill, but he insisted that service
alone should be the test of reward.
The plan advocated by General Tor
rance for the Grand Army is covered
by a proposition originally suggested
by Senator McCumber. chairman of
the senate committee on pensions. 1t
proposes that pensions for veterans
siXty-two years of age shall vary from
So q menth for ninety days service
to S21 month for three years serv-
ice: that sixty-six-year-o!d veterans
shall have ST. d month for ninety
days and S24 month for three years
service: that saYenty-year-old veterans
shall receive SIS for ninety days serv-
ice and $27 for three years service;
that veterans seyenty-five years old
shall receive S21 a month for ninety
days service and $50 for three years
service 1t is estimated that under
this scheme there would be 3S7, 951
pensioners, receiving in the aggregate
S3O,9S4.420.
