Advertising

The public is aware that frequent
articles have appeared in this paper
relating to the subject of Trading
at Home; and we insist that, if the
suggestions made should be followed
as closely as possible, the small, in
dependent communities in which this
paper circulates would profit greatly
thereby. There is another element,
however, which closely enters into
the controversy.
The large mail order houses are
the most extensive advertisers.
Hundreds of thousands Of dollars
are paid out each year by such firms
as Sears Roebuck and Montgomery,
Ward for publicity, not only in the
newspapers, but by circulars and
catalogues. The details of such ad-
vertising campaigns would astonish,
if not overcome, the average village
merchant. Yet these great enter
prises have become immensely rich
plutocratic so to speak-by advertis-
ing alone. A native of Island Pond,
Mr.. Oliver Cabana, Jr., left his town
years ago, poor boy; and, by his
great ability, genergy and persever-
ance, has now become the owner and
proprietor of an immense business
concern, The Buffalo Speciality Co.
If Mr.. Cabana were asked, he would
tell you that.he depends more upon
advertising Ethan anything else to
secure customers for his products.
1t is impossible to sell goods at
home unless you advertise at home.
Some merchants believe. that a news
paper is a sort of a necessary evil
whose advertising columns are useless
and thatTwhatever is paid for space
is so much money wasted.
Don't advertise to help your news
paper but advertise to help your
self, Mr.. Merchant. If it isn't going
to do you any good, don't patronize
the advertising columns but let your
newspaper die.
When your newspaper dies fol
want of patronage, your business
will die, and your town will go along
with you.

VIVIAN MARTIN IN
 THE LITTLE MISS"

It doesn't take such vivid imag- ination to grasp the generalities of the situation which confronts a young French girl suddenly set down in a New England village, when the girl speaks no English and the villagers speak none but their own language. But, to grasp the details and to realize the scores of both pathetic and humor- ous adventures that beset the girl be- fore she finds someone who can under stand her and who can make her un- del stand, one must see the World Film corporation's feature in which Miss Vivian Martin is starred as Lili Bre- val in '"rhe Little Mademoiselle."
 "The Little Mademoiselle" will be shown at the Trianon theatre today
 That Lilis rescuer is a young Amer ican man, true to type, only adds to the interest of the story but the fact that he is as badly broke" as she is when he rescues her, adds more than humor It furnishes the opportunity fer some quaintly amusing situations such as a charming young actress as Miss Martin can make the most of. Miss Martin with her delicate bits of almost pathetic comedy and her pure, girlish characterization of the part of Lili, carries the interesting story through to a finish that gives a final touch to a true-to-life tale of modern love and adventure.
