WITH THE THINKERS


John Wanamaker-If there Is one
hing the gutter should leave severely
alone it is advertising. To make a sue
cess OF advertising one must be pre-
pared to stick like barnacle on a
ships bottom. He should know before
he begins that he must spend money.
Somebody must tell him that he can
not hope to reap results commensurate
with his expenditure early in the game.
Advertising does not jerk-it pulls. 1t
begins very gently at first, but the
pull is steady II increases day by
day and year by year until it exerts
an irresistible power.

 All Shipping To Port

A storm Of unusual severity swept A high sea kicked up during the day causing heavily laden tows to seek shelter within. the breakwater and a high south-south-east wind towards nightfa11 increased to a gale, and ev- eryth1ng but the largest steamers put into ports along the coast.
 During the night a report that a. three masted schooner had gone upon the rocks became prevalent. Inves- tigation proved that this report was probably founded upon the anchoring of the Thomas F. Cooper beyond the Bridgeport light. Being unable to make the breakwater entrance she an Tugs of the Bridgeport Towing line expected to bring her in today though heavy sea is still running.
 . Two tows of light barges bound west for New York and New Jersey blew from their anchorage in the east side channel and landed high and dry upon the Sunnyside mud flats. There were eight belonging to the Red Ball line in tow of the tug A. P. Skfdmore and 10 belonging to the Connecticut River Towing Company in tow of the Spartan. They were unchanged and rested upon even keels. It-is believed no difficulty will be experienced in ref1oating them at high tide.
 Reports from the ,stratford light and the Bridgeport Yacht clubs indi- cate that no signals of distress were seen during the night and the rumor that a schooner had gone ashore is denied in this vicinity.
