GARRETT REPRESENTATIVES
IN THE HOUSE OFOELEGATEs
Commencing Mr.. VIM. W. Savage for
His Faithful Service.
State House
Annapolis. Nd, Feb. %, 1911.

Annapolis, Md, Feb. %, 1911.
Editor of The Republican,
For new member it is doubtful if
another county in the State can boast
so efficient. popular and successful
Delegate in the entire House as Hon.
William W. Savage, of Garrett county,
has demonstrated himself to be. MIR.
Savage came to Annapolis less than so
days ago, complete stranger to every
one excepting his immediate col
leagues, of course), and everyone a
stranger to him. He was a novice in
politics and the working of the Legs
lature and knew practically nothing of
1.-THE game" as it is played here. He
was member of the minority party,
and the smallest minority, numerically,
that has been in the Maryland General
Assembly for many years-so small, as
a matter of-fact, that he could expect
nothing from his Republican brethren
by way of deals or combinations.
Today, notwithstanding this combl-
nation OF handbags, Mr.. Savage is on.
of the foremost men in the House of
Delegates, and will leave behind him
when he departs at the end of the 1914
session lasting impress of splendid
representative ability, legislative
achievement, and pleasant social and
personal memories.
Mr.. Savage began by paying strict
attention to the business of the House
studying the procedure, and becoming
acquainted with his legislative associ-
ates. His inherent ability and pleasant
personality did the rest. Everyone
whom he met for the first time became
his friend at once; he Immediately COM
manded their respect and invited their
sincere regard. The other new mem
bers saw in him forceful ally. and the
cold stagers" recognized in him con-
SENTATIVE, broad-minded, and conscien-
~tiols co-worker of high ideals and
strong principles. And so he just natur-
ally developed into a potent, forceful
and conspicuous legislator, an energetic,
painstaking and resourceful represen
tative of the people--into one who docs
things"
One of the more recent, and perhaps
the most notable, of Mr.. Savage $
achievements result which was due
largely to his tactful efforts and diplo-
matte handing--was the successful
steering of the Garrett county Local
Option Bill which originated in the
Senate with that other talented and
ggreSslve representative from Garrett
unty-Senator Harvey j. Speicher-
is author. When this bill went to
House after passing TRANQUILITY
yh the Senate, it was met by one
most formidable Hobbies" that
ever opposed q local measure.
neOA p% that WaS;1rayed against
he Splice ocal Option Bill can never
fully apN dated by those who were
actually n the ground and knew
the whole of ats inside workings and

MORE STRENGTH
 IS DEvEL 0PED IN
 WALL ST. MARKET I

New York, Jan. 1e-Opening-R Real izing sales among the speculative leadl CTS which the market was able to aso- sorb yesterday without weakening were more effective in the early trad ing today. The extent of the recent rise led traders to play for a reaction and the favorite stocks were uploaded in large volume.
 Pressure conyerged on Reading, Union Pacific and New York Central Each of these stocks, as we'll as St. Paul and Western Union declined a point The downward movement, however, was checked after an hour s trading. Under the lead of Ama1ga- mated. the whole list stiffened.
 Noon.-Price movements were irreg- ular during the morning, but in spite Of occasional rallies the tendency w,as downward Liquidation Of holdings of long stocks increased the available supply and quotaticns gave way to the extent of a po1nt or so in many cases Professional traders were bear | ish, believing reaction was due and the effect of profit taking was in creased by renewed operations on the short side.
 In spite of selling for both accounts, however ,the market betrayed no pre- nounced weakness. Heayiness of the London market for American securi- ties had some influence in deterrnill- ing the course of priceJ and interna- tional stocks were weaxest. Many of the low priced speciairies developed strength.
 Bonds were firm.

TRUTH IN ADVERTISING

that if you simply told the truth, that it wns helpful in
 the majority of instances, people would never buy it. The public discounted any thing that was said, and the
 advertising had consequently l to be written above reality. In the long rJIn this exag Iteration hurts. The mail or lder house and the national advertiser, however, are not
 easily accessible to custom Eers. They. can sell quite a
 quantity of goods before suf- fering for exaggeratiOn. The retail merchant cater ing to a public near his own store suffers instantly from
 any misstatement. The goods, like the cat, come back. They come back very soon. The imminence of retribu- ton for misstatements in To- cal advertising has compelled even slippery merchant to be. very careful of what he says in a newspaper. Hence the public can rely on it. ] When a merchant says pub liely that his goods are so and so. he gives 8 bond to secure the genuineness of the ar- ticle and the satisfaction of the purchaser.

The above phrase was the convention slogan of the As sociated Advertising Clubs, President Wilson's greeting expressed warm approval of the sentiment.
 This motto expresses so thoroughly the spirit of3retail advertising in town like this, that one questions why this big organization needs to have given such prominence to the idea. It may seem like a confession.
 Undoubtedly many of the advertising campaigns on a national scale which blossom out in the magazines at high space rates, are over coIored. You are promised all the blessings of health and hap piness if you only eat Jones bacon. Many of the attrac- tive cuts printed in the mail order catalogue are only a half truth. The cunning cam era conceals all defects.
