and the state department have won a
great victory for the south in secur-
ing from England her consent to en-
tirely lift the embargo on cotton.
This means that the market of the
world will Immediately be thrown
open to the cotton producers and
that whereas since the first of Aug
ust. there has been little or no export
of cotton. there will now be rush
to buy.
This ought to mean a great in
crease in the price of cotton during
the next ten days. and officials OF
the department of agriculture are in
clined to think that the cotton farm
ers ought not to sell their cotton un-
til the cotton buyers have chance
to get into the market. Many people
here believe that cotton will go above
ten cents per pound as the result Of
this piece of enterprise on tn part of
the administration.

And so on. adfinitum, ad Iibitum
ad naseum. Here is an example for
all. Without commenting on the
business that petpetuates this in
fanny, let us stop and consider how
easy it is to attract people with clean
and reputable advertising when such
rot as this brings dividends.
1T is an assured fact that the
more man goes in for athletics the
more he recognizes the need for a
trainor. And. II follows that the
more exercise a business gets the
more 1t realizes the need Of expert
guidance. This is where the train
ed advertising man enters. He comes
and brings into play all the sinews
Of the business. He and the head
OF the business see to il that the
business keeps regular hours and
conseryes its financial strengA by
forbidding over-exercise.
"A trained advertising man deals
in words and plans. A successful
maneuver of one business is often
used to advantage by another. AS
he advances in his work his value
Increases.
Competition is so keen nowadays
that some business men do not want
to invest with the newspapers half of
their appropriation and invest the
other half with the advertising man.
The service agency then offers a SER
vice. highly efficient and usually of
fers It at a small percentage of the
amount invested in advertising. The
amount required Is small, very small
when one stops to consider the time
and thought required to conscien-
tiously serve the employer.
But. big advertisers first are
small advertisers and so the agency
man is willing to serve the small ed
vertiser for the same price that he
serves the large advertiser. even Il
the newspapers will not. 1t has beer
my experience that the advertising
man is worth much more than he
costs and this is demonstrated to tn,
advertisers as they progress"

so-called Mississippi Choctaw In
dians the powerful lobby whicl, has

ants, will not have an easy task in
convincing the congressman that
there is justice in the claims
The fact that Senator jain Sharp
Williams succeeded in holding up a
per capita payment to the Oklahoma
IChoctaws until the matter of the
claims Of the Mississippi Choctaws
could be looked into more thorough
ly. indicated at the last congress that
there was a serious consideration OF
reoDening the rolls of the Choctaws
The Oklahoma Choctaws took no
part in the fight before the last Con-
gress and the members of the Ok
lahoma delegation did not have time
to array evidence to disprove the le
gality of the Mississippi claims.
Since that time, an investigation
conducted by a representative of the
Interior Department is alleged to
have shown that syndicate Of Miss
issippi capitalists and not the Miss
issippi claimants, would become the
chief beneficiaries in their claims.
The Oklahoma Choctaws will
have delegates before the National
Congress and these delegates will be
armed with protests bearing the sig
nature of probably thousand Okla
homa Indians. One of the closing
acts OF the convention held at McAles

circulation OF the conventions res
