Little Talks
on Advertising.

Did you ever stop to think that
the existence of this and other high
grade periodicals is dependent up
on advertising? The revenue de-
rived from it enables us to furnish
you with editorials, special articles
and illustrations Of the highest
order at a price which does not
cover the actual mechanical cost
of producing this paper.
Advertising has made it possible
for you to live better-has helped
you to replace old-fashioned dis
comforts with modern conveniences
is always bringing to your no
tice new comforts, improvements,
and economies.
SO, you see, we all owe much to
our advertisers. We want to. pay
our debt by recommending them
to you, and if you will patronize
them you will make it possible for
us to give you a bigger and better

Hooper is Reelected

Governor B. w. Hooper, Republ-
can, was reelected in Tennessee by
majority of from 5000 to 10000 over
Benton Mcmillan, who represented
the state in congress for many years
and served two terms as governor
Mcmillan was nominated by the So
called regular Democrats and in con-
vention dominated and controlled by
Ex-Governor Patterson, was placed on
a platform declaring for the repeal of
the statewide prohibition laws and
was backed by the liquor interests in
and out of the state. The reelection
of Governor Hooper is all but mirac-
ulous when there is taken into con-
sideration the fact that Woodrow Will
son carried the state by more than
10000 over the combined votes of Taft
and Roosevelt, and all the more pro-
nounced from the fact that the leaders
of the Progressive or Roosevelt party
in Tennessee had declared for the re-
peal of prohibition laws and united
with the Mcmillan forces for the de-
feat of Hooper.
1t is safe to predict that no party in
Tennessee will ever again write liq-
uor plank in its platform. A safe ma
jority of both branches of the legis-
lature is pledged to the retention of
the anti-liquor laws and is overwhelm-
ing anti-P Patterson We are hopeful
of an advanced legislation for more
effective law enforcement.
