Why Ford Uses Papers

Speaking before the st. Louis Ad-
vertiSing club recently, C. A. Brown
ELL who has been advertising manager
of the Ford Motor Company for some
time said
"Our advertising department, in
buying advertising, is absolutely de-
void of sentiment, as in the buying OF
vanadian steel or any other merchan-
disc We figure that it is as much a
part of the cost of producing an au-
tomobile as is the steering wheel or
the carbureter, and we buy our ad-
vertising in as cold blooded way as
we do the steering wheel. For our
purposes, we almost exclusively use
the newspapers, because we find that
through them we reach the people
along the lines of least resistance.
zone of the reasons for selecting
the newspapers is that we have learn
ed to follow the local advertisers
lead. We have for a long time used
the so-called national magazines, but
| would rather, 10 to /, insert a mod.
crate sized copy in a newspaper than
4 in any of the national magazines, be-
cause | know that there it will come
face to face with the man who is go.
ing to buv car alongside the init
mate reading matter that is part of
the daily reading. 1t is because of
this possibilitv of getting in close per
sonal touch with them that we use the
newspapers. and I would rather be
where the mass of advertising is, II
the newspapers that carry the most
than not. Place it in the paper that
is most used"

Iiyingston's Bad Break.

Nine. Ida Crouch -Hazlett, orator
itinerate of the socialistic party, was
interfered with last Saturday night
while delivering an address at the
corner of Lemon and Second streets.
Chief of Police Livingston It, seems
had informed the woman that she
must not speak on that corner cn
Saturday. She persisted in doing so;
when she began speaking he stepped
up to her and asked her to deslst;
she refused and went on with her ad-
dress; a moment or two later Mr.. Llv-
ingston went to her and taking her
by the arm helped her to the wal:
and then with another officer walked
her to the court house square, where
he turned her loose, and where she
continued her address.
The excitement of the occasion drew
crowd, the majority of whom SYM
pathized with the woman. In her in
terrupted address she is said to have
paid her respects to several citizens,
the mayor and the offending chief OF
police. The woman has good COM
mand of language and those who We're
attacked, had they been present to
hear, would have been willing to admit
that in vituperation "the female Of
the species is much more deadly than
the male"
On Monday night a called mass
meeting was held at the court house
to protest against the action of the
chief. A series of demands were
made on he council which were pre-.
sented to that body on Tuesday nigh
and referred to the police COMMITTEES
flor action. This committee will re-
port at the next meeting.
Mr.. Livingston feels that he was
carrying out the mayors orders; but
he fell short of them. The mayor was
asked by Mr.. Livingston if the wo-
man should be allowed to speak or
that corner on Saturday night. The
mayor told him that because of the
playing of the band and the general
congestion at that point on Saturday
to tell her not to speak there. She
: was told, but refused the order of the
mayor
