Advertising Talks.
ME KNEW HOW.

There old geezer and he had lot Of sense;
He started up.a business dollar-eighty cents
The dollar for stock and the eighty for an ad
Brought him three lovely dollars in day, by dad
Well, he bought goods and little space
And he played that system with smile on his face.
The customers aocked to his two-by-four
And soon he had to hustle for a regular t
Up on the square where the people pass
He gobbled up corner that all plate glass.
He fixed up the windows with the best that he bad
And he told 'em all about 1t in a halfpage ad.
He soon had 'em coming and he never, quit
& And he wouldn't cut down his ads one jit.
WE'LL he's kept things humping In the every since
And everybody calls hin, the Merchant Prince.
Some say it's luck but that's all bunk
Why, he was doing business when times punk.
People have to purchase and the geezer wise---
For he knew the way to get 'em was to advertise.

Why the Home Paperp

Have you ever asked yourself
why you take your home paper or
why is it necessary to have home
paper at alll Do SO, and you will
start train of thoughts that will
be Illuminating to you. ~.
The big city daily comes to you
and gives you the important news
Of the outside world. but you and
the home people are too small for a
place in it's columns. About its
only thought of you IS the money
il gets from you. 1t deals in world
matters and is Of value to you be,
cause through it you obtain much
Of your knowledge of the greater
affairs of life. But it utterly
ignores you and yours. E's@
Hence the local paper, and like
wise your reason for taking the
local paper.
You cannot exist without a
knowledge of the affairs Of your
home community. You must
know of the plans and Of the work
of the local authorities, and you
must know of the doings of the
churches, and the lodges. and of
your neighbors, and Of the COM
munity in general. You cannot
obtain this knowledge from the big
city papers. but you can and do
find it in the columns Of the home
paper.
You buy the big city daily be-
cause you must know of the pro-
gress of the world, for your mind
is developing day by day and
demands this greater fund Of in
formation. But your mind Graves
even a more intimate knowledge of
affairs that are vital to the interests
of you and yours, and these things
you find only in the home paper.
10 the great city daily you are
but as a single pebble upon the
beach, a drifting sand of the desert.
But to the home paper you are one
of us, an important factor in the
community. force with which to
be reckoned.
A disrupted, and disintergating
community means shrinkage a
loss in property values and a stag
nant public mind. Hence the
home paper has an ever watchful
eye to the interests of the commu-
nifty and Of yourself, for only in the
preservation Of the community and
Of yourself can the home paper
hope for a continued existence.
The home paper is your friend,
and you know it. And because
you are loyal to your friends and
to the community you believe in
the home paper and its ceaseless
work for home and home people. .
Your interests and those Of, the
home paper are identical, and you
need it quite as much as it needs
you. And the man who recognizes
the necessity for community of
interests becomes a builder. and
not q destroyer.

Cigarette Fiends
The great world
has small use for

the creatures in human form that smoke cigarettes
Whether to pity them for the injury they do them
selves more than blame them for the harm they do
society is problem. They are an ungainly lot
Chief Croker, of the New York City Fire De-
partment, has no use for cigarette fiends. When
these chaps get into the thick smoke their lungs
cannot stand the strain.
Croker says:
Il want some men with brains, and eyes but
want all Of them with lungs"
Looking among cigarette fiends for men with
brains and lungs, too, is hopeless task There
may be some traces of lungs among them but their
brain, in large measure, never existed Cigarette
fiends are not wanted. in any position of trust or
responsible work.
They unreliable physically, mentally and
morally.
boy who will give himself over to
the consumption of coffin nails' is simply expedi
ting his steps toward the coffin and yet he is not
fit for the cofn and of what is beyond the coffin.
He is no good in life, less than good in death
and worst off of all after the coffin gets him.
Boys especially who become addicted to the
cigarette habit become slaves to it before their
thirtieth year and so wrecked in mental and moral
status that the insane asylum is a safer place for
them than any home or business Office or working
occupation.
More and more the brand of failure is being
stamped upon cigarette users.

A BIT OF SARCASM

Ex-Congressman Frederick Lam
dis, of Indiana, Cat Atlantic City,,
kept the Convention in an uproar
by this piece of sarcasm: Il want to
speak to you little while about the
terrible disasters which will follow
national prohibition. Think of the
fine madhouses made empty. Have
we the right to stop going crazy if
it will throw asylum guards out of
work? Think of the employees of
our beautiful penitentiaries. Shall
we strike down eighty-five per cent
of their prosperity? Shall we cast
upon the scrap-heap the divorce
lawyers of our land, the bone and
sinew Of our country? And there is
the corkscrew industry. 1t has not
the pull it used to have. Untold
fortunes invested in it's manufacture
are gone. Take the steel industry.
National prohibition will affect the
manufacture of padlocks, jimmies,
ball and chain, handouts and prison
bars. Millions will be thrown out
of work. And this does not include
the millions of skilled workman
now engaged in the manufacture of
brass knuckles. Gamblers will be
reduced not only to want but to
work.
After all, can the American home
stand the ravages of sobriety? Can
any nation hope to lead the march
of human progress if we limit the
output of locomotor ataxia? The
constitution provides the right of
trial by jury. How are we going
to enjoy this right if we remove the
incentive to crime? The constitu-
ton also guarantees the right of
habeas corpus. How are we going
to exercise this if people stop going
to Jail? But in spite of all this dis
aster, Pm for national prohibition.
I'm for it because no honest gov
eminent can steal babies shoes and
call it revenue. I'm for it because
no civilized nation can run toll
gate on the road to hell. I'm for it
because / want a national defense
that can defy the world if necessary.
I'm for it because it's more in the
scope of the republics business to
protect little children at home than
to protect big business abroad. Pm
for it because it's the nations wrong
and the nation alone can right it.

Your Chance
Edward Box, in La
dies Home Journal.


trnthfuly states that such opportunities for young
men to win success as are offered today, never
were offered in the nineteenth century, He says:
"A young of capacity, industry and integrity
has field for individual effort such as has never
before existed in this country.
''And success is neither harder nor easier than
it ever Success never yet came to the laggard,
and it never will. Let young man be capable,
have enterprise, be willing to work and carry him
self like man. and he gees where he will Sue
cess depends upon himself. No times no conditions.
no combinations of capital can stop young man
who has determination to honorably succeed. and
who is willing to work according to the very ut
most of his capacity and sinews of strength The
real trouble is that the average young man won't
work. He has gotten the insane notion into his
head that success comes by luck that men are made
by opportunities which either come to them or are
thrust upon them. And he either waits for luck
chance to come along and find him.
Instead of taking sane view of conditions
and seeing with clear mind that as trade widens
opportunities increase, he takes the mistaken view
that the rich getting richer, the poor poorer.
These the conditions of mind and life which are
keeping thousands of young men down and will
keep them down. The times are all right. It is
the young man who finds fault with them who is
not.

A good-by kiss is little thing.
With your hand on the door to
go;
But it takes the venom out of
the sting
OF a thotless word or cruel
fling
That you made an hour ago.
A kiss of greeting is sweet and
rare,
After the toll of the day,
And 1t smooths the burrows
plowed by care
The lines on the forehead you
once called fair,
In the years that have flown
away.
It's little thing to say, you
are kind"
Il love you. my DEAR" each

But it sends thrill thru the

For love, so tender, love is
blind,
AS we climb life's rugged
height.
We starve each other for loves

We take, but we do not give.
1t seems so easy some soul to
bless,
But we dole the love out grudg-
ingly, less and less,
Till tbs bitter and hard to live.

In the day of battle,
In the night of dread,
Let one hymn be lifted,
Let one prayer be said.
Not for the pride of conquest
Not for vengeance wrought
Nor for peace and safety
With dishonor bought!
Praise for faith in freedom,

Born of dreams and daring,
Bold above dismay.
Prayer for cloudless vision,
And the valiant hand,
That the right may triumph

"A hard loser compounds his loss Don't
NOPE over bad luck-grope for the better. For
get your setback and plan to getback. Regret
eats enough vanity and imagination to noursh sue
cess"
The above is an excerpt from Herbert Kauf-
mans philosophy. 1t prompts us to few COM
ments in like vein:-For the consideration of
inmate readers. Regrets certainly ARE poor divi-
dend gette1s insofar that they recalled to haunt
and hamper new effort to overcome the cause for
regrets.
And to be a hard loser'' compounds the loss,
and gains no new footing by which better future
is invited. To get get back' after one has had
setback is also the wisest philosophy to en-
courage into purposeful accomplishment.
The inmate that permits regret to eat up ener-
gy" and hope, that should be his shield against
future error, is wasting dividends-he consumes
energy that can be used to better purpose. He
deposits, in the Bank of Worry and Retrogression,
an account that pays no interest-he retains the
principal, to be sure, but his account Of hopeless
ness secures him no real profit on his investment.
But gaining an account of hope-and determine
ton to do better in the future-to deposit in the
Bank of Hope and Regeneration, has the advantage
of gaining dividends that compound the bright
hope of future rehabtation-a forerunner of pur-
poseful success.
1t is every inmates duty to the Great Outside,
relatives, associates as we'll as to himself to so in
crease his hopeful capital that his term of atone
ment is of personal moral gain-a future working
fund" upon which to build anew when the day for
re-entry into society is at hand

The Republican candidate for Clerk OF the

very capable recording Clerk OF the Office The
Republicans have thus met the requirements OF
good and popular government in their candidate
by offering to the public their most experienced
and efficient man. The Democrats should accept
this challenge by choosing me as their randidate'
this will completely offset any advantages claimed
for their nominee by the Republicans Other
wise it may be reasonably expected, that the
large body of self respecting men who desire
