WASTED ADVERTISING

Copyright 1919 by Geo. +. Patterson
A noted scientific writer said that
at least two-thirds Of all human
effort Is wasted. and the remaining
lone-third 10 largely misdirected." II
this assertion Is true II would be tn
terestins to figure out what portion
Iof s35.oeo, ,ooo.ooo the amount
spent annually In the worlds market,
10 wasted. II is likewise interesting
TO know what per cent OF the millions
tof dollars spent annually Is wasted
and why Il Is wasted.
Men who have made careful study
iof advertising tell US that over rs
per cent OF all advertising is wasted.
Why this vast per cent OF ineficiency ::
|ft was only recently we noticed that
three department stores In \ town
advertised on the same day that they
we're now holding the Greatest Semi
Annual Clearance Sale Ever Held
Here" Each Of the stores could not
be holding the greatest sale. The
|proprietors did not believe II. the pub
lie did not believe IL. and the three
advertisements were ineficient and
wasteful. Dishonest advertising d
destructive In tendency and wasteful
|advertising.
The problem Of distrihution. OF
bringing buyer and seller together. is
the great problem In business. Any
advertising that does not accomplish
this result Il wasteful ADVERTISING.
Spasmodic. and In fact al adver-
tising not backed up with . definite
plan. ID vastefui advertising. This
kind Of advertising never can be re-
lied upon to produce definite results.
There u ono certain way Of reduc-
ing waste in advertising. Just a.
salesmen are made efieient by proper
training and handling 20 advertising
will be efficient when the advertiser
b properly trained. II IL Just - fool

DICTATOR HU[RTis COON IS
LIKELY TO COME DOWN
GREA&R IIRANT MAY NOT WAIT FOR The FIRE Of
AMERICAN GUNS
TREACHEROUS AZTEC CHIEFTAJS CHANGES
MIND. MEXICAN CRISIS WILL SOON


Washington, April 17.-General
promised Charge O'Shaughnessy to
salute the American flag in apology
for the arrest of American bluejack-
cts at Tampico.
1t is authoritatively stated that
the only point remaining to be de-
termined is the number of guns to
be fired in salute and that this would
be speedily agreed upon. At the
state, war and navy departments of
ficials considered the crisis passed.
The only condition attached was
that the American ships fire a salute
in acknowledgement. Officials close
to the president said this was in ac-
cordance with naval practice of ma
tions and according to precedent.
Unless Huerta changes his mind
the crisis promises to pass over with
in the next twenty-four hours.
Ships Steaming ON Toward the South
No orders were issued to the ships
already steaming toward Mexico nor
was there any change in the plans
for enforcing President Wilson's de-
mand. Some officials gave it as their
personal view that after Huerta had
complied with the demand for
apology and saluted the American
flag some of the ships now under
way might be turned back but GER
tainly not before.
Some Officials Are Skeptical
Some officials because of their
long familiarity with the evasiveness
of Huerta, are not inclined to be too
sanguine over the dispatches from
Charge O'Shaughnessy. Privately
they said they would be convinced
when the salute actually was fired
Others who knew of the great pres
sure brought upon Huerta did not
question that he had seen the wis
dom of yielding.
Is Up Against 1t
The last vestige of any suspicion
Huerta may have had that the Unit
ed States was blufing was said to
have been removed by messages
from his representatives in Wash
ington telling him that President
Wilson. was thoroughly aroused and
| meant to force the issue to the end.
Congress Backs Wilson
The House foreign affairs commit
tee adopted the following resolution:
Resolved, that the action of the
president OF the United States in
the Tampico incident is sustained by
the committee on foreign affairs OF
the House of Representatives"

.FLOR|DA'S BATTLES AND
HER GRAY CLAD FIGHTERS
SHARE BORNE BY OUR COMMONWEALTH N THE GREAT
WAR BETWEEN THE STATES
SUCCESSFULLY DEFENDED
POWERS CONFEDERACY
ELSEWHERE CRUMBIED

The following history taken from
the Confederate Veteran, of the
civil war and the share borne in it
by Florida men, will be of particu-
lar interest at present:
While far from the centers of mil
itary operations during the war,
Florida, in proportion to her popula-
ton, had her share of fighting. This
state was one of the original thir-
teen and knew her rights to secede.
She did secede on the 10th of Janu-
ary, 1861, but declared against any
act of hostility against the forts and
military posts unless they became
guilty of overt acts against the state.
her cities or her troops. .Anticipat-
ing a demand for surrender, how
ever, the federals withdrew from the
navy yard at Pensacola and Fort
Barancas and retired to the strongly
fortified Fort Pickens. removing the
stores and spiking the guns. After
the declaration of war, Florida fur
nished as large quota of soldiers to
the Confederacy as her sister states
and prepared to resist, but could not
hope to fortify her 400 of coast
line. The only important forts we're
in the enemy's hands, and after sew
eral boats were captured by the Con-
federates the Federals established "a
blockade. The first battle with loss
0e 70 L.
tured and burned the Confederate
schooner judah on September IA.
1861, afterwards Withdrawing with
a loss OF three killed and thirteen
wounded
The most imposing military dem
onstration of the war in Florida was
on November % and % of the same
year, an artillery battle between
Forts Pickens and McRae. The re-
suit was indecisive and losses small.
Quiet then prevailed at Pensacola
until January 1, 1862, when Con-
federate steamer burned ware
house on shore Following the dis
aste,s in Kentucky and Tennessee,
the Florida forts were abandoned
the Confederates destroying supplies
and dismantling as far as possible
