TRUTH TELLING
 ADVERTISEMENTS

Quite a natural text for q lit tie talk on the anniversary of Washington's birthday.
 There is some sentiment and also good, plain, business sense in the idea that an advertise ment must be an exact state ment of fact-that it must be without exaggeration.
 The old policy let the buyer beware" has become obsolete. In the same way the tendency to have alluring advertising without the goods 10 back it up has gone into the discard.
 It did not pay.
 There is more care exercised today in the preparation of an advertisement than ever before.
 People are greater readers of advertising than ever before, and are more severe critics.
 They know the ring of the true from the noise of the coun- terfeit.
 The advertising in the good newspapers like The Bulletin is subjected to careful scrutiny. Publishers are jealous of the character of their columns. Standards are getting higher the business world is getting more exacting in it's ideals and its practices.

STILL SAY
THEY HOLD
TORREON

Washington, April 6.-The cancella-
ton by the .Huerta government of
the exequatur American counselor,
against George c. Carrothers because
he sent to Washington dispatches say
ing the rebels had taken Torreon,
failed to disturb state department Off
Gals. The Huerta government still
denies Torreon has fallen.
Carrothers obtained his ~exequatur
when he acceded to the Madero gov
eminent stationed at Torreon. Since
the outbreak of the Carranza evolu-
ton he had a rowing commission in
northern Mexico. His exequatur from
the Mexico City government has been
of little value to him, all his dealings
being with the constitutionalists.
h. 1t is the intention Of the American
government to keep Carrothers with
Villa and other rebel leaders to make
prompt representations for the safety
of Americans and other foreigners and
look after their interests. %.
Should Carrothers find it necessary
to go into territory controlled by
Huerta he may now be unable to do
business with local authorities but
there is no prospect that he will per-
sonally be inco~nvenienced or prevent
ed from making observations as an
official representative. .. ...
