ADVERTISING DOES
NOT INCREASE SALES
COST, SAYS N|AH|N
Celebrated Expert Talks Today al
Noon-day Luncheon Of Cham
Der Of Commerce

That advertising not only does not
increase the cost of sales, but on the
other hand, renders more efficient the
sales force and increases the business
and profits of any firm properly en-
ploying it, was the substance of re-
markably forceful, entertaining and in
structive talk delivered at the second
noon-day luncheon of the Harrisburg
Chamber of Commerce to-day by John
Lee Mahin, of Chicago, one of the
most celebrated advertising men in
the country.
Mr.. Mahin came here as the per-
sonal guest of Charles f. Watt, head
of the Elliott Fisher Typewriter Com
pany, and upon his earnest solicitation.
His speech was heard by considerably
more than hundred of the city's
most prominent business men, includ-
| ing the sales forces and publicity man
ayers of many of the large industries
of Harrisburg and Steelton. His talk
made a distinct impression and he
was rendered a vote of thanks and an
informal reception at it's close.
MIR. Mahin laid particular stress on
! the value of local advertising. Dur
| ing the course of his remarks he said
"I do not know your situation in
Harrisburg, but I am ready to stand
| by the assertion that each family
reached by one of your daily news
papers / can buy twenty-four pages
Of reading matter for five cents. That
nickel, SO spent, I believe, would be
equal in service to twenty calls by
any salesman, and I would like to hire
the man who can make twenty calls
for the expenditure of so small o
sum-"
Prosperity and SalesInanship
| Mr.. Mahin said he believed that
salesmanship is the greatest construc-
tive force in the country to-day and
that upon the shoulders of the sales
people who realize that salesmanship
and service go hand in hand, who are
able to create legitimate markets and
widen the scope of selling, depends to

New York March 11.--The ousting
of Charles +. Murphy, leader of Tam
many Hall, and severai of his follow
ers, from membership in the National
Democratic Club, created a stir in po-
litical circles to-day. The ostensible
reason given during the heated debate
of the matter at the club last night
was that Murphy was behind in his
dues.
Judge Edward f. O'Dwyer, presi-
dent of the club, who has been leading
the fight against Murphy, introduced a
resolution calling for the elimination
of the Tammany leader and the others,
but this reason was not formally
adopted as the point was raised and
upheld by the presiding officer that
under the rules the men were automa-
tically dropped as they had not paid
dues for two months.
Thomas +. Smith, secretary of Tam
many Hall. appealed against the rul-
ing and rendered a check for the
money due. When the check was re-
fused he asked for a vote. Seventeen
members of the board of governors
We're present and they decided against
the appeal 10 to Z.
In the course of the debate, Smith
said the men named would not submit
to such humiliation.

THE names were picked out for
an obvious purpose" he said, land
we will have them restored to the
rolls"
Judge O'Dwyer replied that he could
give very good reason for the club S
action.
"They were dropped he said, "for
the best interests of the club and the
Democratic party"
Besides Murphy. James j. Gaffney,
Thomas r. Foley, Thomas H. Darling
