GOOD SPORT CHEATED.

The minor results of the war that
give disappointment are the necea-
sary postponement of the air flight
across the Atlantic and the yacht race
for the Americas cup. The former
perhaps more than the latter, because
of its novelty.
1t is very sporty idea, this prom
ised attempt to see if man can fly
across the ocean. Ii appeals intense
ly to the spirit of adventure and Of
fers a spectacular test of mechanism
in daring new field of endeavor.
But who knows what surprises in
air flight the war itself may bring
out? Quite early in the progress OF
aviation the human imagination con-
ceived the chance that earth's bravest
battles would one day be fought in
the clouds.
And now that war is bringing this
speculation to the test, who can guess
what surprises may be in store?
Widespread already is the expecta,
ton that the army airmen have sur
prises up their sleeves. The conf.
dence with which German. for in.
stance, faces a hostile continent is
hard to understand on the basis oil
known land strength; so that arm.
chair strategists are busy wondering
il wonderful new engines of slaughter
for use in the air may not be in the
back OF Berlins mind.
1t may even be that control of mo-
tor power in flight will, ere the war:
end, have been so we'll established
that peaceful flight across the At
lantic would not have the content o.
surprise and would. therefore. offel
little tribute of glory.
This. however. is all guesswork
The only sure thing is that the try
out across the water. to say nothinI
of the race for the cup, must avail
calmer times.

TRAVEL AT HOME.

European travel should give peo-
pie broader views and more general
intelligence. For some it has been
mere extravaganza and useless spend
ing. 1t may be worth all it costs,
yet it does drain hundreds of mill
lions of dollars annually from our
country.
On Au6ust l Europe closed up its
hotels and railroads. opened its GEM
eteries, and went into the killing bus
mess. If the war ends soon many
curiosity seekers may then go over,
much as the ghouls flock to a rail-
road disaster. Normal people will
find Europe in turmoil for several
years. Everyone having leisure and
money for travel may we'll take this
time to familiarize himself with the
wonders to be seen at home
The war should teach a renewed
respect for American ideas and insti-
tutions. While the powers of Europe
have been loading themselves up
with the barbarous implements of
slaughter. America has been making
better highways, educating its chill
dren. removing disease, AMI improv-
ing its farms.
While Europe is now destroying
matchless relics of the past, America
has been erecting churches and mon
uments, painting pictures and carv-
ing statues. Iuch of this work is
crude, but much is very wonderful.
While foreign powers are working off
the cruel fevers of barbarism, let us
here at home value at its true worth
all that our own builders and artists
have done
There ought now to be in every
American heart a renewed affection
for his native land. 1t should stand
for him as the home of peace, as the
land where love and science and
labor are the ideals. not blood and
iron
One should realize better the gor-
geous scenic beauty of our fair land,
and feel deeper interest in the
abounding energy of American
achievement. Let the traveller then,
until Europe lepents of it's wild in
sanity, seek to learn more of what
God and man have done for his own
native land!

WHY DEFINITENESS PAYS IN
ADVERTISING.

Here and there one finds a mer-
chant who says he has tried adver-
tising but never made it pay The
chances are ten to one that he sim
ply needs to study definiteness.
The principle of the specific fact,
and the specific instance, affect all
writing and speaking. They make
one mans advertising a partial fail
ure, while another's is a money get
ter.
If one man visits a 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 CONVEX
sation 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 crosswalk to get over,
and that people were always in a
hurry and the street railway conduct
ors always said Step lively"
After such a man has talked few
mOmaptc Won oaf eop,o ;doo about
the place he describes. You see it
with your own eyes.
Every man who ever made a sue
cess as a newspaper writer has
learned that you must give personal
incidents and actual happenings to
make any kind of news article inter-
esting: If the reader can't 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 desire to buy.
That is all there is to good adver-
tising. 1t does not require wit, nor
literary nor technical skill. Just
come down to brass tacks." Give
the plain facts about an article as
you would talk to a buyer over the
counter. Try it and see!

STATE PRESS FIGHTING BACK.

Away back in the stone ages when
medicine was first thought of and
dentistry was unknown, some un-
thinking person originated the eth
ics' of the profession, and among
other things said it was "unprofes-
sional'' to let the world know of the
individual ability of doctors through
the newspaper or any other form of
publicity. 1t was laid down as the
rule that no matter how much hui
manity suffers, or how great the skill
of a specialist to cure certain dis
eases, it was unprofessional for the
doctor to let the sufferer know.
This professional ethical belief has
been made a part and parcel of the
profession since. Doctors who adver-
tised were at once howled down by
the professionally ethical as frauds
and quacks. The ethical schools, by
reason of their number and co-opera-
tion, have practically framed every
medical law on the statute books to-
day and eliminated all those schools
upon which they looked with disfa-
vor.
DR.. Parker. dentist of Portland.
has initiated bill to make it possi-
BILE for dentists who are graduates of
any school issuing a diploma, and
whose moral character is all right,
to practice in Oregon. Under the
present law it is a matter for the
dental board, composed of ethical
dentists, to decide who may and may
not practice. The doctors and dent
lists view with alarm" this bill. They
even go farther, and place their dis
approval upon the use of all drugs
not recognized by the official journal
of the ethical" body.
AS a result they have aroused the
state press to the point of white heat
Almost one-third of the revenue oI
the papers of the state is directly re.
ceived from drugs prepared and sold
and known as patent medicine. As
the doctors and dentists do not be.
lieve in advertising, they are making
their fight upon DR.. Parker's bill
purely because he is an advertiser
He believes in letting the people
know he is alive and a specialist in
certain lines. And because he ad
vertises the ethical professional:
are being assessed s25 each to fight
the bill-and incidentally the news
papers.
AS result the state press is get.
ting into the fight with a vim. as the
foundation OF the press is being at.

stirred up a hornets nest and doubt.

THE DAY OF RECKONING.

Here now we are to have a war
tax, with no war. The emergency
that confronts the American people
is due in no way to any act of them:
but not so much can be said for con-
gress.
II congress had observed the
pledges of economy and retrenchment
upon which it was elected, the war
tax would not be necessary. But con-
gress at this session has made appro-
priations of all kinds approximating

The Secret of Badness.

The actual condition Of the scalp
and Of the hair has very much less to
do with the health of the latter than
is popularity supposed. The bulbs Of
the roots of the hair go down COM
pletely through the skin and into the
fatty layer which lies between it and
the skull. and the thing that to the ex-
pert eye is really significant of the
prospect as to progress or cure in
particular case of badness is not the
condition or color or cleanliness of
the scalp, but the thickness or thinness
of this fatty layer which underlies it.
So long as this is present and the
scalp is freely movable over the skull
there is hope of restoring reasonable
growth of hair. but when this fat has
been absorbed and the shiny scalp
sticks as closely to the skull as the
cover on baseball the outlook is
practically hopeless. This. of course,
shows at once the futility of most of
the local applications to and manipu-
lations of the scalp. from which it suf-
fers untold torments in those who are
or imagine themselves to be becoming
bald.
