You live in Q world of adver- tislng. You see it upon bill boards, the walls of houses, signs and placards. You see 1t printed on calendars. pictures, programs. purses, pencils, note books, knives, button hooks, and hundreds of otker novelties. You receive it through the malls as post cards, letters or circu- lars. You sec it upon drinking cups and lunch boxes, fin fact there is nothing you can do and no direction in which you can turn without coming in contact with advertising.
 The Successful Merchant
 Advertises-
 the unsuccessful merchant does not. There are no exceptions to this rule. Look about you and draw your own compari- sons. Observe the merchant who has the largest store, and the most property in any town, he advertises. Observe the great department stores and mail order houses. They adyer- tise, some of them spending
 Millions of Dollars per year for advertising. without which, their business would fail in a single season They get business out of your own com munity by advertising, which proves that advertising would pay you if properly and syste- mntlcally done.

County superintendent of education
will hereafter be elective by the people
of the rural districts and of cities of
the third class over whose schools
they have official charge and their
selection will be uninfluenced by the
vote of the larger cities, the Taylor
bill to that effect having passed both
branches of the legislature. The bill
passed the senate by a margin of but
one vote after a spirited discussion
consuming a considerable part Of
Tuesday afternoons session
The fact that most superintendent
maintain a residence within a city of
the second or third class was raised
as an objection, but was ruled not
dfsqualifying them for reelection
since they are still residents of the
county. The proposition appealed to
a sufficient number of senators as a
fair one on the general ground that
the rural voters should have control
of an office which affects only their
own schools. The Jurisdiction Of the
county superintendent extends over
