lures of all advertising courses. The
principle of the specific fact and the
specific instance affect all writing and
speaking. They make one mans ad-
vertising partial failure, while an
others is money getter.
If one man visits strange city, he
comes back talking something like
this: 1T was fine, grand, splendid.
His talk evaporates into vague, gen.
eral phrases. The people that hear
him talk know no more about that
city than before. He has few listen
ers, whatever his subject of conversa-
ton may be.
Another man remarks about the
same town, that it is full of buildings
twenty stories high. that the streets
were so crowded he had to wait ten
minutes at one cross walk to get over,
and that people were always in a
hurry and the street railway conduc-
tors always said ''Step lively"
After such a man has talked few
moments you get some idea about the
place he describes. You see it with
your own eyes
Every man who ever made sue
cess as a newspaper writer has learned
that you must give personal incidents
and actual happenings to make any
kind of news article interesting. If
the reader cant see the thing with
his own eyes, the copy won't sell.
Just the same in advertising. If
you merely say BEST stock in town"
the reader may or may not believe
you. Try picking out the best values
in your store, give few details about
them so the purchaser can get some
idea what they are, then name the
price. The reader then sees the bar
gain with his own eyes, is interested,
and feels a desire to buy.
That is all there is to good adver-
tisinG. II does not require wit, nor
nor technical skill. Just
come down to brass tacks."
The advertising course is patronized
by men who want to know how best
to do this how and where to spend
their money and how much to spend.
They realize that there is no profit in
hit-or-miss advertising.

Our friends, the fremen, have put
forward their best efforts to guarantee
a fine reception for the visiting fire.

for the success of the big occasion is a
continuance of good weather. Mean
while every citizen of Harrisburg
should constitute himself a special COM
mittee on reception to the end that all
visitors may be given the very best i'm
preston of Harrisburg and our people.
They must see the public improvements

~ VEN now England is making
~ preparations to capture the
- foreign trade that Germany has
lost as the result of the war.
England wants American sympathy
but she does not want America to
profit as a result of the war. We are
great people so long as we do not
indulge in a thought above the sue
cess of the allied armies. 1t behooves
us, therefore, to move rapidly and
along proper channels if we are to
capture the bulk of the customers that
are now looking for markets from
which to purchase.
The question is largely whether our
manufacturers will take the trouble
to adapt themselves to the whims and
Iindividualities of these localities. The
tendency formerly has been to send
these people, not what they wanted,
but what we thought they ought to
want. Somewhat better results have
been had for a few recent years, but
our exporters still have a great deal
to learn if they are to compete per-
manently in this field.
The reports of our consuls show
what stupid blunders have been made
in the past Many goods intended for
Portuguese speaking countries would
have Spanish labels. Shipments have
been marked in feet and pounds for
countries using the metric system.
Many manufacturers would ship
goods in great fiimsy cases, tackled to-
gether with light nails. They might
have to be trans-shipped from steamer
to harbor lighter, thence to river boat.
again to railway, and finally to OK
team. They would encounter tropical
rains and heat If they held together,
they might prove too heavy for the
human carrier at the end of the
journey.
The business men of these coun-
tries have the Latin American love
for forms and ceremonies. The ap-
proach of our breezy statesmen strikes
them as rough and abrupt. Social
relations precede business in the trop-
les. And no matter how well a man
can work off goods in Oshkosh or
Seattle, if he only speaks pigeon
Spanish in South America. it is like
a Hungarian laborer trying to sell
grand pianos in Fifth avenue.
1t is a great field for young men
who are willing to grow up with the
country, and form link between our
mills and South American customs
and ideas. That is the way the Ger
mans won the bulk of the business
and that is why England will take
the bulk of that lost by Germany un-
| less we move fast and along right
lines, for Britain is already extensively
in these markets and understands
them.

HATS OFF TO THE FIREMEN
by Wing Dinger

It's hats off to the firemen,
Who ready are to fight
The blaze that threatens to destroy
Our all by day or night.
A service noble, doubly so,
Because they ask no pay,
But volunteer, at risk of life,
The fire call to obey.
It's hats off to the firemen,
We're glad to have them here.
Let's all together voices raise
In one big, mighty cheer
A hip, hip and another hip.
And then a big hooray-
We're glad you're here, the town il
yours
AS long as you may stay.

CoNsTABULARY AND LABOR

Philadelphia Record: In starting
a crusade against the Pennsylvania
State Constabulary the Central Labor
Union allows foolish rrejudices to run
away with its good judgments. There
is nothing savoring of militarism
about these very efficient troopers, and
the fact that they are held up as
model throughout the country is
matter of which Pennsylvanians may
well be proud. Does the Central
Labor Uuion want to go back to the
brutal and despotic methods of the
old Coal and Iron Police? Before at
tacking the Constabulary it would be
well to compare their record with
that of their predecessors.
Philadelphia Ledger: The Central
Labor Union of Philadelphia has start
ed another campaign for the abolition
of the State Constabulary. An effort
will be made to obtain a pledge from
every candidate for the Pennsylvania
Assembly as well as the Senate to vote
for a bill to destroy this police force.
1t is a woeful blunder on the part of
organized labor. The State Constabu-
larry has proved itself to be next to the
regular army the most efficient protec
tor of public peace in the United
States. 1t is SO regarded in all the
other States.
The constabulary has one mission
and only one, which is to preserve or
der in the State of Pennsylvania. The
constabulary is here to defend the
100000 inhabitants, including the
members of all labor unions, against
riot, murder, arson and every form
of violence.
