THE CHEAPEST ADVERTISING

Copyright lsis BY Geo. e Patterson
"A newspaper advertisement strikes the " the moment the sheet
8 opened" says w. l. Douglas, the big shoe man, who spends about
100000 annually In newspaper advertising. He says further that that
very fact Is the reason he chooses the newspaper rather than any other
adverusing medium. This Is n very good reason why newspaper
advertising is the cheapest regardless Of price.
Let " look at different kinds Of advertising, such az personal solicit
tation and personal letter writing, and see how they compare with news
paper advertising. We do not refer to circular letters, bills, etc, be-
cause from the standpoint Of the local merchant these only at a al
auxiliary or enforcement to newspaper advertising, and successful
advertisers only regard them a such. But personal solicitation by the
local merchant and writing prospective customers personal letters do
compete with newspaper advertising.
Personal solicitation and personal letter writing are veye expensive
to the local merchant, in fact SO expensive a to be practically pro-
hibiuve.
Take personal letter writing al illustration, and W take this Al
Illustration because 1t Is far cheaper than personal solicitation. The
right kind of a $500 ad put tin a paper with 1000 circulation would Be
read by 10000 people. Same substance put into a letter, each letter
typewriter, mailed under a two cent stamped envelope, addressed and
sealed a personal letters must be, and sent to 10000 people would cost
5000 for postage stamps, and 500 extra for printing envelopes and
Ietterheads, stenosrapher &c write letters and address envelopes, etc,
making a total of over $500. And the cost to personally solicit the
10000 people would be something enormous.
Newspapers are run for the advertiser. All other items Of informa-
ton are put In to make the paper popular and sell the paper. This
fact alone makes newspaper advertising the cheapest advertising.

GREAT RIVALRY BETWEEN CLUBS

The Potomac League Is enjoying a
prosperous season In Its initial appear
ance among the amateur circuits OF the
Diatrfct. 1t Is a lamentable fact that
the league. was not enrolled under the
commission. so the pennant winners
would be eligible for the annual post
season series.
The games are the best ATTENDED of
any in the District, and as the clubs
represent different communities the par
tisanship is intense. At a recent game
between Anacostia and Congress Heights,
which the latter won, to 2. the root
ers from the two suburbs lined up on
opposite sides Of the field and kept I'D
constant cheering throughout the con-
test
Congress Heights Is out in front at
present. with the Anacostia. Oxon Hill,
and Hospital clubs closely punched. Steel
Plant and Highland have both strength
ened their clubs and expect to be well
up at the finish. Owing to the fact that
the league is independent of the COM
mission many of the diamond stars Of
the District may be seen in action upon
any of the three first-class diamonds
on which the games are staged. How
ever good the attendance has been to
date. II Is bound to improve as the race
advances. and the prospects are for
banner year. Next year, according to
present plans. the league will be regu-
larry enrolled within the District ANA

completed. all cut during the year. and
the land Is being cleared for the remain
der Of the course The planning of the
new clubhouse is in the hands Of the COM
mittee. but nothing very definite has yet
been done regarding the building.
1t 10 stated by the officials Of the or

features of the new building will be a
view Of the course that will be obtained
from the rear veranda of the structure,

The clubhouse will occupy an eminence
100 feet above the Conduit Road. from
which point about eight miles Of the
palisades OF the Virginia shore Of the
Potomac form beautiful vista.
The gallery which followed the profess
sional match yesterday at the Columbia

largest that ever gathered to witness a
golf match in this locality. Fully 500
persons followed the golfers around the
links, and as many more Joined THE

Among the professionals attached to
the local clubs, one who Is bound to be
heard from in the near future In Howard
Beckett. Of the Washington Country

Washington group of professionals and
gives promise Of a rapid rise.
Young Beckett is a native of Newark,
N. j., and it was on the links of that
town that he first began his study of
the ancient Scotch pastime. His first
work in the professional line was done
at the Country Club Of Virginia, at
westhampton. Richmond, where he acted
as assistant to his brother, Jack Beck

mond organization.
Howard remained under his brothers
charge about three years. when he came
to Washington to assume the duties at
the Washington Country Club. He has
been at the club across the river nearly
four months, and in that time has as
sisted greatly in the Improvement Of the
play Of many members Of the organixa-'I
ton. Beckett also has negotiated the
links Of his home club for score of
10. which Is considered to BE- q highly
creditable mark, as the course presents
more than usual difficulty.
