NACO, Oct. 7.-The desultory siege of Naco was enIivened with a series of sharp, vigorous attacks tonight. American army officers familiar with the disposition of the two Mexican forces, expect an attempt to storm the town by morning. Gen. Gil, com mandine the Carranza garrison, threw his entire line into action tonight in replying to the heavy smelling of the town.
 Maytorena sent word to Col. Gui- foyle, commanding the American border patrol, that he was about to attack Naco. Yesterday he followed his previous peace proposals to Gil with the information that Villa had ordered a suspension of the fighting pending the outcome of the Villa Carranza conference at Aguas Cali entes. Tonight he gave no expana- ton of his reversal of policy. Stimuli taneous attacks were made on both Hanks of the defenders about nine o'clock. A heavy shrapneI fire, well diercted for the first time, seemed effective on the entrenched trops.
 Many shots fell on the American side.

You naturally ask why.
mo manufacturer can year after year
afford to go down in his pocket to pay
for advertising when his goods do not
give satisfaction. He seldom makes n
profit. on his first orders--it is tho re-
peat orders that make the money for
him.
"Successful advertising is a sure in
dication of quality, for without value
OF the product no advertising could
succeed. The manufacturer and every
one connected with the distribution
would lost reputation and money, for
the public will not long continue to be
gulled. -.
advertising is no more al ~extrava-
ganCe than is the use Of good seed or
good machinery by the farmer Extern
sive advertising is just as economical
as quantity production in the motor
car industry. for example, as 1t brings
larger and quicker return for the in
vestment, allowing for re-investmens
in materials and consequent large pro-
duCtion.
Money spent in extensive and Judi
cious advertising Is the best investment
in the world today for every one con-
cerned. Amy salesman will tell you
that advertised goods can be and are.

cost than those unknown"
This explains the principle of adver-
Using in q matter of fact way and
should convince every anti-adVerttstnE
advocate in tho country. However, IL
there arc still some doubling Thomases
reasons why advertising is Of greater
benefit to the consumer than 1t to the

advertising automobiles.

PAYS FOR AUTOS

ALI that is necessary for In
one to guage the Importance of
the automobile industry in this
ace this week. Millions and millions
Of dollars are represented in cars and
accessories. And on exhibition are to
be seen only the products. Millions
and millions OF dollars are also repre-
sented in automobile and accessory
plants in this country and thousands
and thousands OF men are employed in
these plants.
What one element has contributed
most to the wonderful momentum that
has propelled the automobile so swift
Iy-What n force has carried 1T to the
front in American m in the
short space of fifteen years? This is
the interesting question that has been
asked hundreds OF times in the past
of times in the future.
There Is perhaps no single reply by
which this question may be answered
fully. but almost every automobile man
has some particular experience Of his
career to which he attributes his sue
cess in making and selling automobiles.
Not all makers and sellers will agree
on the reasons for the motor mars in
conceivable advancement, bplt' all max
ers and sellers will agree that adver-
misunderstanding that began with
the Introduction of the first car-has
been the little dynamo tina furnished
the controlling force behind the auto
mobiles SUCCESS.
In the very infancy Of the industry
the automobile was its W Advertising
medium. 1t frightened horses when in
motion and it blocked traffic when
drawn up to the curb. People would
almost knock one another down so as
to get a lance to look at it and solve
It's mystery. And from that time up to
the present minute the automobile has
been one of the very largest

To estimate just what white space
costs the automobile makes and
sellers would be difficult to an
swer, but it costs each one thou
sands and thousands Of dollars
talogues and all sorts of selling ~1itera-
ture are charged to Advertising. And
this Is not done one year but every
year and no manufacturer or dealer
lodges 1T, or does he want to.
In the very early days of the motor
car business 1t was evident that to
overcome obstacles and hostile public
the automobile and the people. That
bridge was constructed of printers ink
and white paper. And by this constant
advertising the public was won over to
the present day automobile.
Yet in the face of this honest endeay-
or on the part Of automobile men TO
tell the public exactly the possibilities
Of the automobile and how it would
some day transform the mode of trans
portation in this country, some people
to this day say that the consumer ac-
tually pays for the Advertising. Moth
Ing Is more unjust, nor was there ever
an Idea more erroneous. In the frs,

case 1t reacts against the advertiser
and hurts his business and in the latter
1t poisons the mind of the people at
whom the advertising is aimed.
To illustrate just how this works out
and to prove that the motor car seller
still has to overcome hostility l will
Shortly after the 1914 Hudson an
nouncement vas made in the daily
newspapers and national magazines I
received a letter in which the writer
advertising off the selling price Of our
cars We probably would sell more cars
and that the nan OF average means
could afford to buy one.
Now, 1t is evident that this man is
not a business man, or IL he is a bust
ness man he is not very important in
his particular line. Yet there arc hun
dreds and thousands just like him and
our bridge work between the people
and the automobile. And doubtless
there will always be people just like
him, hence we will always be advertise
ing.
But as a matter Of fact 1t Is not a
difficult problem to prove that adver-
Using educe the selling cost OF an
automobile and still gives the advertis-
er a larger margin of profit on his cars.
OF course any one who knows anything
| at all about advertising knows thai
this is true, but 1t is for the doubling
ones that we will try to prove it.
Manufacturing and selling are made
up of mar elements and advertising is
but n of them. Ethics of advertising
are simple. Advertising Is nothing
more or nothing less than a salesman
in print and when lone right costs
less by the sale than does q human
salesman. Both are Indispensable in a
we'll regulated selling organization.
One of the very best reasons why ad-
vertising is beneficial to the consumer
and a rich factor in selling for the
| manufacture Is evidenced in an article
which appeared In a recent issue of an
advertising mems publication. The
writer says in part: You ave more

the receipts from the show aside from

 Such occurrences are becoming common place and the record of these war craft for useful and heroic deeds is most brilliant. Frequent figuring in such tragic events and participat- ing in deeds of mercy have softening effect upon those engaged therein as we'll as upon those who read of the deeds, and they but emphasize the fact that maintenance of great navy does not mean the brutalizing of men or nations, but upon the contrary it is instrumental in urging men to deeds of sacrifice and daring, inspiring them to respond to the impulses of altruism as well as insuring more constant pursuit of all the arts of peace.
