would have gone to some other firm.
Most of us believe that competition is a
good thing 1t keeps down prices It keeps
up quality. It makes business men more
eager to give the public good service. Any
economical method of competition ought
therefore to be regarded as a benefit to the
public. And the economy Of advertising
purely as competitive method has been
so clearly demonstrated in many great
industries over period of years that it
need not be discussed here.
The main question, however, is: What
does advertising do besides stimulate COM
petition?
AS matter of fact, its chief use lies
entirely beyond. It creates new markets,
new demands, new desires. It makes pos
sible new products, new ways of doing
things, better national life

Creating Human Activity
Advertising is like the railroad, the
trolley the telephone, the newspaper, the
school-a creator of human activity. Like
all of these, it is force for the wider and
quicker dissemination of information. 1t
never knew existed, or never thought we
wanted. 1t teaches us to want things a
little beyond our grasp and to work
little harder in order to get them. It is
like the rifle that the modern Tom Saw
yer saw in the window. He had intended
to loaf all summer, but he wanted that
rifle. In order to get it he had to have
money. To get money he went out and
painted fences and ran errandsand moved
lawns The knowledge that there was a
rifle that he could have if he worked for
it made him producer instead of de-
pendent.

solely for competitive purposes would have
been absolutely futile, this was it. The
company certainly had the city both coming

not going to spend money in advertising.
We are going to invest money in adver-

Vienna, June ,20.-Nine terribly
burned and mutilated bodies and splin-
tered fragments of an aeroplane and
charred remnants of big diriglble
balloon are the mute records OF one
of the most tragic and most sensa-
tional disasters which has occurred
since man first learned to fly. The
catastrophe, resulting in the death OF
all concerned, followed mimic at
tack by an aeroplane on the dirigible
at "a great height during the Austrian
army maneuvers, and serves to show
the horrors which would likely attend
aerial warfare. sa
Many Prominent Airmen.
The dirigible military balloon, Ko-
ertlig, left Fischamend, II miles from
Vienna, at s o'clock this morning. It
was manned by captain Hauswirth, In
command of Lieutenants Hofstetter,
Bruer and Heidinger, Corporals Had
ina and Weber and Engineer Kam-
merer. After half an hour had elaps-
ed a military lbiplane, with Lieuten-
ants Flatz and Hoosta aboard, started
in pursuit. 1t was the intention Of
Hauswirth to take photographs of the
movements of troops below and then
to join the maneuvers. At the same
time Ne was to keep out of the range
of any mosquito craft seeking to at
tack him A big crowd was watching.
Quickly the aeroplane overlook the
less speedy airship. AS might wasp,
attacking some clumsy enemy, the
aeroplane circled several times
around the balloon, always apparently
steering off just in time to avoid ac-
tual collision.
Rose to Great Height.
Meanwhile, the balloon rose to a
height of 1900 feet. The biplane, ris-
ing to a greater height, unanswered
until it appeared nearly over the air
ship. Then it began to descend. 1t
was the evident intention of the BIZ
plane to take position directly above
the dirigible, but miscalculation
sent the biplane's nose ripping along
the airship's envelope A tremendous
explosion followed and both air craft,
the balloon are, crashed to the
ground, killing the participants.

STOLE TO GET NEW START
Bank Cashier Experiences overpower
Ing Impulse to Get Some Place
and Start Life Anew.

A bank teller in a middle western
state grew weary of the narrow, cir
cumscribed life in the town where he
lived; he wanted wider interests, a
new start in a new place, but a start
with capital so he could push him
self ahead. He took $4,000 of the
banks funds, jumped into his automo-
bile and started for Mexico (this was
before the present revolution across
the Rio Grande had reached such seri.
GUS proportions) across Kansas, Ok
lahoma and Texas. He expected to
make a clean getaway by using a
motor car instead Of taking train,
forgetting that an auto can be traced.
The surety company at once put an
inspector on his trail, and the man
was captured in Texas when he was
almost at Laredo, ready to cross the
border.
OF the sum he stole, $4,000 was re-
covered in the actual wrappers in
which he had taken It from the bank.
The automobile was recovered and
sold, and the proceeds used to make
up for part of the money he had spent.
This cashier is now serving long
sentence in prison merely because he
experienced an overpowering impulse
to go some place and start life anew.

Then Pigot hired hall, invited the

Subsequently he sued the electric
