SERIES or TEN TALKS ON ADVERTISING NJ 4
written by seymour Eaton OF Phladslphla lNO -

have bunch Of letters from advertisers asking
me to criticise their advertisements; to tell them
wherein me copy is bad or good.
It is nearly all bad; but most bad ADVERTISE
ments pay. The better the copy, as general rule.
the better the results Good copy for one class Of
trade might be very poor copy for another But there
are few broad general principles which are always
true.
Your advertisement should be attractive enough
to catch the eye. Size doesn't do this A two inch
single column card may be made to attract more
notice than announcement as big a sheet Of note
paper II your advertisement isn't seen it isn't read
and if it isn't read no matter if it has ten million
circulation it isn't worth a postage stamp. You are
not investing in circulation but in readers Of adver-
dsements.
~ The next point is to make your advertisement
readable. AS rule the most readable copy is printed
in fairly large book type kind Of type with
display heading two and the reading matter divided
into easy paragraphs. Most advertisers think that by
crowding the space to its utmost they are getting
bigger value for their money. Within reasonable
limits the very opposite is true Ten words read are
worth me4e than ten thousand words looked at.
If advertising a retail shop and found
that my advertising appropriation would allow me to
take two inch card daily in four newspapers should
multiply the two by four and take an eight inch card
in newspaper.
But the sc-et Of copy Is personality red hot
hustling life. Like breeds like. If your shop is a
hustng go-ahead concern and this spirit is reflected
in your advertising, the contagion viii soon spread.
The first hundred customers the hardest to get
the second hundred come in about half the time the
third hundred are attracted by The crowd
The full page announcements of the department
stores overshadow the small dealer; but there is
opening up great field in every big city for the at
trnctive advertising Of the smaller shop. This ad-
vertising must be done in new way; it must be
pleasing refined, convincing; it must appeal to the
individual who loves quiet rather than noise the very
antithesis of the broadsde bargain advertising SO
common in every newspaper.

AT THE THEATERS LAST NIGHT
GAYETY.
.grhe Ro.eIand Girl...

SolIIe Ward, Lillian Fitzgerald and The
Roseland Girls" were greeted by two ca
pacity houses at the Gayety yesterday.
'.Society q la Carte" Is the name that
has been bestowed upon the performance
and the intricate details OF social etiquette
furnish the basis of the plot, or more
properly all OF the merriment OF the
show.
Miss Fitzgerald, chic French damsei,
makes a personal Transformation during
the second act that startles her audience.
She appears in the rags OF charwoman
and sings her hit Scrub, Scrub, Scrub,
with a perfect Irish accent that wins a
number of well merited enchores. She
has never before appeared before an audi
ence other than a dashing brench
madamoseille dressed in the latest OF
Partisan creations. The transformation
is complete and gives, the. talented young
woman an opportunity to show tnat
she is capable Of doing more than De
Iight frivilous young society leader.
+ Sollies Ward iss.a comedian that never
lets up. He is never alta loss to know
how to win a hearty laugh ana travels
at full speed all the time. The principals
are, supported by a capable company and
to them belongs a big share in the
success of the show The chorus ID made
up of show girls, medium and ponies. an
good looking and full of life. No less
than dozen startling costumes are
shown to the best of advantage. The
entire performance reflects decided ad-
vance in the standards Of burlesque.
The Washington herald., 1913-12-16
ACADEMY.

.'The Newlyveds and Their Baby"
The NewIyweds and Snookums show at
the Academy is good fun from start to
finish, with a lively, well-drfllel chorus
and plenty of clever novelties in the musi-
cal numbers. The lines sparkIed with
witty talk that kept the large audience
hilarious throughout the evening.
Leo Hayes, as Mr.. Newlywed, has
caught the cartoonist's idea to the dot,
and his eccentric dancing is perhaps the
most applauded feature of the entertain
ment. Miss Beattie Evans, as the baby's
other fond parent, strikes the correct
note of placid peachiness.
Snookums himself and Maj. Knott
Much, the midget who takes his place
when he gets lost. are both well played
by Harold West, a young man Of more
talents than inches. Plenty Of screamy
fun arises from the majors efforts to
make good as an infant while at the
same time he wins caresses from the Ia
dies and collects all the valuables in
sight.
Milton Dawson, as a German waiter,
causes much amusement. Others who
do clever work are ]. ]. Dyer and Fran
els FOLSOM in various love songs, and
Fannie Thatcher in a bit of burlesque.
F. c. Batcheler is good as bear.

COSMOS.

The Cosmos Theater this week has a
bill Of fine attractions some of them
genuine novelties, some real surprises, and
three of them quite laughable. Black
and Blue, billed as society entertainers,
have a novel acrobatic act which is full
Of laughable comedy that wins applause
continuously. .-...-
Kolb and Harland have a delightful
novelty in THE Evolution from 1850 to
1890" 1t opens with costumes of 1850,
introducing songs and dances including
a pretty minuet. and closes with a charm
ing little German comedy speciality. Glib
son Hardy and a dummy made merry
in song and ''woozy taSk." and Dena
Cooper and company, in The Confess
sion," furnished a real dramatic thrill
with a startling climax.
Holden and Harron also have a number
OF much merriment, and both have re-
markably high and sweet voices which
tell in the song interpretations The
Godlewski Troupe are a Russian novelty,
and their entertainment is exceptionally
interesting. The Pathe Weekly pictures
of international events and the comedy
photoplays complete one Of the best bills
OF the season.
