the buyers needs working in his favor.
1t is a time when the public does
not expect quite the low prices to be
had at the end of a season. Goods
sold now bring fair profit. A dol
lar spent In advertising now should
save the loss of many dollars on goods
that must be disposed OF at sacrifice
sales later.
II you have exceptionally good val

ticularly welcome now before the regu-
lar price cutting begins. But the pub.
lie will never hear of these values un-
less you give them the information
through newspaper advertising. This
form OF soliciting business brings the
most generous returns, because the
merchant can therein appeal to the
readers logic, by giving definite facts
figures, details and reasons.

CHANGES IN RELIGIOUS JOUR,
MAIlSM

In millions of families the denomi,
national newspaper was long as fixed
a feature as grandfather's clock. If
The Evangelist, lions Herald, or The
Observer hadn't turned up Sunday,
the children had nothing to read but
Barnes Notes and Pilgrims Progress.
Although the latter had exciting pic
lures of Apollyon and Giant Despair.
yet there was usually a puzzle cor
ner in the religious papers.
Recent changes In this field OF
journalism suggest how different 1t is
today Some papers have been given
up, others are consolidating. The
union OF two Baptist journals. The
Watchman and The Examiner, found
ed respectively in 1919 and 1928, is
the most recent upsetting of these
old family landmarks
The old denominational weekly
might involve endless drudgery or
detail work. But there was a sure,
steadfast audience. They would as
soon neglect to pay subscriptions as
forget to turn up at the accustomed
pew on Sunday morning. 1t was not
necessary to send the most popular
teacher to Europe to get new sub
scribers. nor to offer shiny tin clocks
or rickety carpet sweepers as prem.
iums
Those days of sectarianism were
like. the intense faith of the Scotch
Covenanters. The church paper was
not supported so much for reasons of
obligation, as because people were
keenly anxious to know about the
progress of their own branch OF the
church.
Now the sectarian spirit is weaker.
Church people are not thrilled by
learning that a new society of their
own faith has been started at Jones.

THE NEWSPAPER EXCHANGE.

There is no section Of the newspa.
per that comes home closer to where
people live than the classified adj
vertising. No matter how much
more important theoretically the
news from Mexico may be, the fact
that your neighbor has offered his
house for sale at a certain price
touches you much more closely.
From these columns you read the
intimate story of the towns daily
life. The housewife is curious TO
know who is advertising for positions
as servants. Working people want
to know who is asking for help. Peo-
pie who own or who wish to buy or
rent real estate are Interested In the
pending transfers. It Is hard to find
a class Of people who do not follow
these notices week by week.
Hence It is perfectly astonishing
how many answers are often received
from a simple little insertion in the
To Rent. For Sale, and Want columns.
Anything you can do by personal In
quiry is multiplied hundred fold by
the press.
Some people will put in hours or
days and time worth dollars, running
around and making inquiries haphaz-
ard, when they want to rent place
or sell some property. Meanwhile a
few nickles or dimes spent in the
newspaper would reach hundred fold
more people. Usually the man whom
you expect to interest has other ideas,
while the newspaper brings inquiries
from strangers and sources that would
never occur to you.
This kind Of advertising permits
the buyer to get the best price, be-
cause he learns whether there is to
be any competition 1t gives the sell
er the most advantageous trade, be-
cause he finds whether there is really
Ito be a demand
In many places farmers are al
ready doing a good business through

Using They are developing a trade
that would rather pay special price
than buy through middlemen. The

THAw CASE AND EXTRACTION

This Thaw middle shows what
we fellows are up against all the
time, with all this red tape IN the
extradition law" said veteran po-
lice official a few days ago.
The Thaw mix-up has surprised
man people, in that the extradition
treaties with foreign powers furnish

serious defect In the extradition sys.

way In which minor law breakers
skip into the next state and escape.
The detective quoted above, who
has had wide experience in several
states, SAID that theoretically the ex.
tradition laws are fair enough. But

teal result, he said, is that most DO

Every state values its independent
control over Its own territory and
legal procedure. But its independence
and dignity is mere paper If citizens
living along the border are constantly

To the average police officer a
small larceny or assault case does
not seem worth the bother and cost
of starting extradition machinery.

profitable. Next time he works on a
bigger scale 1t was the easy getaway
for the small offense that shaped his
career.
The extradition net needs to be
tighened. not merely as respects the
criminal insane. not merely to hold
big fish like Thaw, but all along the
line, to get the little fellows that are
testing out crooked inclinations in a
small way. The procedure should be
simple and inexpensive. so that police
