ENTERPRISE PAYS BIG DIVIDENDS
 IN CURTAIN BUSINESS

Upon tlie death of his father, a young man found himself, just after the completion of his college course, at the head Of a curtain manufactory. Up to this time, the entire product had been marketed through travelling salesmen.
 Why isn't this proposition adapted to the mail?" queried the new propri- etor Isn't that the tendency Of the times?"
 Don't throw away your money, advised one of his competitors, an elderly man with whom he was on friendly terms q published a cata. logue a few years ago; mailed thou. sand copies and never got an order
 But the young man was obdurate He began reading up on mailing cam paigns-how to write a good sales let ter; how to make your opening para graph grip the readers interest; how to emphasize the prospects needs as much as the merits of your product how to write a closing paragraph that would impel immediate action--these were some Of the points he picked up He learned that properly handled mailing campaigns were based on the results of hundreds of past campaigns Finally, he decided to call an expert to his aid. He found one, a direct mail specialist
 Together they mapped out plan They obtained a list of 1000 big buy CTS. wholesalers and large retailers Then came the letter; they re-wrots it a halfdozen times With it they en closed half-tones and samples of 6 dozen patterns
 Fifteen sizable orders resulted iron the initial campaign. fifteen new GUS toners were accessible, a salesman was sent to try to increase the order Later campaigns proved to be ever more successful Today over 60 pei cent of the concerns volume Of busi ness is with customers first gained through the mail. Which means GUS toners gained at a mighty low cost Wouldn't the mail supply an addition al outlet for your commodity?

ART EXHIBITION ATTRACTS MANY TO
 HIGH SCHOOL GYM.
Work of Pupils of Various Grades is Source of Much Favorable Comment; Artistry of Children Merits Praise.

Parents and friends of the school children of the district should not fan to visit the art and handicraft exhibit now on at the gymnasium of the Bis bee high school building Some of the work of the pupils is really of an astonishingly remarkable nature and reflects tremendous credit not only upon the children but their teachers as well.
 As one first enters the gymnasium, his attention is attracted by two ar tistic pieces of work Illustrating Win ter and Spring. These realistic depic- tions of nature are the handiwork of children O fthe primary department, being free cuttings, the entire work being carefully mounted an dhung at opposite sides of the entrance to the gymnasium.
 An exhibition which attracted a great deal of favorable comment was that of the domestic science depart- ment where exceedingly appetizins appearing specimens of the art culi- nary were exposed to the gaze of chi'- dren and elders, some Of the former becoming SO enthusiastic in their aD- preciation that they insisted in par taking of some of the dainties For this reason this department was obliged to suspend it's activities at an earlier hour than the others.
 The drawing department is worthy of especial mention It should be un- derstood that all the work in this line is entirely by free hand Some of the children have demonstrated much native ability
 Teachers and their departments at the general exhibition are: Misses Ul- rich and Gaden, domestic science, Messrs. Lmprecht and Dillon, print ing and forging; Miss sloan drawing Miss Sloan also has general charge of the exhibition.
 The Turner Art Exhibit which has attracted such favorable attention in many and widely separated parts of the United States, will be ready for public view Wednesday. Free access to this exhibit will be granted the Mexican pupils of the Powell school at South Bisbee and those O fthe Mex ican room at Centro, on Wednesday.

GEORGE ". PERKINS.


 In 1879 George W. Perkins was earning S6 a week as onice boy in the Chicago office of the New York Life Insurance Company Twelve years later, at the age of 29, he was third vice president of the company at a salary of S25.OOO per year.
 Here is just one little episode that throws some light on the causes of his rapid rise. One snowy night, the young insurance solicitor went out to call on some prospects at a country flour mill. The storm was raging out side; the miller, his brother and son could not escape the young mans can vass. They were tough prospects but Perkins hammered away. Finally by offering to accept their notes as pay ment for premiums, he induced them to take out insurance
 Then he recalled the fact that earlier in the evening he had noticed his victims putting away money in the safe It didn't require much argu- ment to persuade them that they could save money by discounting their notes on the spot Perkins left with his pockets full of cash.
 Later Perkins accepted the State agency for Indiana, at $3500 a year. Before being formally installed in this position, he went out to Kansas to
Bisbee daily review., 1915-05-11

wind up some of his fathers business affairs. The field looked so good to him that he relinquisned his Indiana opening and settled down west of the Mississippi.
 With headquarters in Denver and corps of agents covering the con tiguous States, his commissions to- tailed $15,OOO that year This record caused a stir at the home office He was promptly appointed inspector of agencies for the West at a salary of $15,00O per annum. He made good.
 Then came rapid promotions. He became third vice president at $25,OOO a year then was placed upon the board of trustees; later became sec ond vice president at $35,000 per year; still later. chairman of the finance committee at $75,OOO per year and finally, first vice president.
 Some years later, at the urgent solicitation of J. P. Morgan, he ac- cepted a partnership in the great banking concern. Here he developed his conceptions regarding reconciling the seemingly insuperable differences existing between capital and labor. As result of his policy came profit sharing insurance, sick benefits, old age pensions, service bonuses sale Of stock to employees at less than its market value, and other innovations.
 In 1910, Perkins retired from J. P. Morgan & Go. and has since devoted his time to solving the industrial and economic problems which confront

ARe FORBIDDEN TO LAUeH.

ARE FORBIDDEN TO LAUGH. From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
 There is no trouble about the mat tinee hat in Turkey, and in that hap uy country the cry: Sit down, please" is never heard from the back rows in a theater As a matter of fact no one sits down at the play at all.
 The first three rows of the audi ence lie in a reclining position; the next three rows kneel and remain in that attitude throughout the piece, everyone else sands up.
 Another quaint point about the the ater in Turkey is that a notice ap- pears on he walls of the building to the effect that Tt is strictly forbid den to laugh, for it is a tragedy that is being performed"
