NATIONALLY ADVERTISED GOODS

With this issue the Register has at
tempted something out Of the ordinary
for county seat weeklies. In fact we
do not know that a similar stunt has
been pulled off in this part of the Uni
ted States. We have always been a
firm believer in cooperation between
the manufacturer and retailer and a
number of years ago it occurred to us
that if the manufacturers would assist
the local merchant with his advertis-
ing it would be the strongest puller he
could ~inaugurate. The manufacturer,
of course, wants to sell more goods, so
does the retailer. Then why should
The manufacturer believes in adver-
Using or he would not spend millions
in special brands, daily papers and ma
tional magazines. In our opinion they
have overlooked the goose that layed
the golden egg" and began at the
wrong end. Magazine advertising Is
all right in its way but what magazine
or outside publication reaches into the
numberless homes and Is read with
the same interest by all the members
of the family as the local newspaper?
We speak OF nationally advertised
goods, there are some brands that are
a household word but, while the peo.
pie have became familiar with the
name or brand they still are at a loss
to know where they can be obtained.
and right here ome in the value Of
the weekly paper that reaches into the
homes of all the consumers in it's ter
ritory. Nationally advertised goods
are the standard of value. They have
reputation behind them and you get
full value for your money. That's the
reason people want them and the
local dealer who fails to inform the
public that he has them in town and
on his shelves makes the biggest mis-
take of his life. The average mer-
chant has looked upon his advertising
as an expense. It should not be SO. 1t
should be looked upon as an invest
ment that should yield him one hun
dred per cen profit. At the same time
we believe that the manufacturer and
retail dealer would be mutually bene-
fitted by their cooperation in the mat
ter Of local publicity and that large
sums spent by the former in national
publications of large circulation could
be spent more proitably in assisting
the man that sells the goods direct to
the consumer. With the thought In
mind of obtaining the notice of some
of the big advertisers, especially of
nationally advertised goods, we sought
the cooperation Of our fellow towns,
man, Charles E. Hall, who by the way
Is one of the best advertising men in
tire northwest, and we have succeeded
in producing this issue of the Register
devoted largely to nationally advertis.
ed goods. 1t speaks for itself.

The Redfeld Journal-Observer says
that the Mitchell Republican is the
latest to quote the raven and with
much anguish cry "~nevermOre" when
it to printing for the state Of
South Dakota. If all the printers
would give them at least a little profit
above the price of the stock, perhaps
they could afford to purchase a little
gasoline for the "tin Lizzie" occasion
ally-and incidentally prevent the
printing commissioner from making
political capital of the fact that "he'
has saved the state so much money,
when in reality the saving has come
through ruinous prices made by a
number Of printers about the state.

their lives. Youth very likely played
an important part but we believe right
living was also a greater factor. These
young men were prepared when the
crisis of life came and seven out OF
the ten managed to save themselves.
We would wager that when they were
boys their spare time was taken up
with games and athletics and not spent
in wasting their time and energies in
useless indulgence. Brookings young
men could take a lesson from this ex.
p~erlence. They will likely never be
called upon to face the danger and
thrilling experience that these young
men passed through but every day
brings its trials and temptations. How
to he prepared is the question.

CLARKE MAY HAVE
FOUND A "STRAD'

In the dust covered violin, wrapped
in burlap bag and stuffed into cor
ner behind the shelving of his drug
store in the Masonic building, Chas. N.
Clarke, when he was moving last week
from his old location to the new quar-
ters in the Smith building may have
found real Stradivarius violin. Mr..
Clarke saw the end of the bag when
the carpenters we're moving the shelv-
ing. He tugged away at it, and found
that it was wrapped around something
struck hard and fast in the corner.
Pulling the mitered ends of the shelves
apart the dusty old fiddle was brought
to light. Inside the violin is inscribed
the following numerals of date: l79 {.
The last figure was obliterated. The
inscription also bears the name: A..
-Stradivarius.
IL haven't the least idea how the old
violin ever got in the corner, says Mr..
Clarke. 81 have occupied the Masonic
building for the last IL years, and the
shelving was placed there by me. so
the violin must have been placed in the
crack since | have had my store there. "
MIR. Clarke will have an expert i'll
spect the old instrument. One other
Stradivarius violin is alreadysowned in
the Hood River valley by Billie Wheel
er, who has been offered a thousan
dollars for the old instrument.

{. |. MOODY MAKES
LITTLE Pig SAUSAGE

Having been caught with a lot of
small pigs on his hands which he was
unable to sell, Chas. /. Moody, an Up
per Valley rancher and orchardist, con-
cejved the idea of turning the swine
into delectable sausage and thus find
ing profitable market for bis product.
Food is SO high that be could not afford
to feed the pigs, and the sausage route
seemed his only hope. No sooner was
his resolution made than he set to
work to place the delicious sausage be-
fore the public. At first sausage was
sold to his neighbors in the Upper VAL
ley. Then he secured cartons, and the
sausage was placed on sale in Hood
River.
Mr.. Moody has probably started
something that will not at all be fin
| -ished when his surplus pigs have been
turnd from grunting swine into saus-
age, the frying aroma of which will
give anyone an appetite. He is now
selling Springwster (named for his
Upper Valley ranch home) little pig
sausage by parcel post.

Winter

All no, my gay young songster,
Too soon you've chirped for spring,
Our winter is not gone yet,
Despite your c-a-r-o-l-i-n-g.
Your song wasllight and CHEEKY,
As bird upon the wing,
But budding pussy willows,
Does not betoken spring.
For soft Columbia breezes,
At closing of the year.
May burst their downy caskets
Ere winter scarce is here,
There's days and days of waiting,
With snow Ger every thing,
Ere winters fleeing minions,
Throw back the gates to spring.
And oft may grim old Boreas,
Yet wiring your pretty nose,
Ere through the blooming tree tops.
The spring time zephyr blows.
And yet sweet bird of song land,
So blythe your accents ring,
| could not choose but listen,
You seemed so like the spring.
(This is from Old Boreas, himself.)

LONDON, Oct. 29.-The Austro-Ger-
mans and Bulgarians have completed
the first phase of the Serbian campaign
by junction in the northeaster corn
ers of the country. This also en-
hanced the military advantage of Sc
curing free passage down the Danube
river. A fotilla of steamers is said to
he waiting to transport war materials

Eulgaria's ammunition shortage which
would soon be relieved, her offensive
power would be geratly strengthened.
The progress of Bulgarian troops
east and northeast of Nish threatens
the city and places the Serbian army
in an increasingly dangerous position.
The capture of Nish would make pos
sjble railway communication through
Nish. Belgrade and Sofia.

large front from the north, which runs
from valievo slightly southeast in a
broad curve to Kladova where they

PROSPER IN LONDON

LONDON. Oct. 29.-Classes in Rus
san, French and Spanish are prosper

recognized that Germany's great gain
i'll trade were due largely to the pains
German clerks and business men took
to acquire foreign languages. Special
courses in the Slave tongue, including
Polish and the Balkan dialects, are
now established at Kings College, I'm
iversity of London. T. G. Masaryq,
professor of philosophy in the Czech
University of Prague and formerly a
prominent politician in the Austrian
parliament, is the head of the school.
instruction in the languages will be
accompanied by lectures in Slavonic
history and literature. Spanish is
rather the latest to be taken up, just as
Russian was the first after the out
break of the war. The Welsh people,
on account of being bi-lingual, are the
cleverest students in language, and the
Scotch next, according to he teachers
