LITTLE TALKS WITH
WANT AD READERS


Have you ever gone hunting With
dog? II you have. you know how in
dispensable the dog is TO the hunter
and what a knowing animal he is:
how cleverly and accurately he uses
his instinct to point out to his master
where the birds are that he is seeking.
Without this dog the hunter him
self would scare the birds away and
he would probably hunt all day in
vain
Now what the dog is to the hunter
the Want Ad is to the man and woman
hunting for business success. for the
Want Ad points the way to opportun-
ity and openings. wherein the worker
can turn his skill into dollars and
cents that will ciothe and feed him
self and his family and often the
Want Ad will acquire for the worker
the chance, 10 make a fortune.
Just look for a minute at some Of
the varied things the Wants are
pointing out daily to the men and
women in the great hunting ground
of the business world.
They point the way for employers to
get efficient help: they point the way
for the clerk and salesman and agent
10 get employment at good pay; they
point the way for the office worker,
stenOgrapher, or bookkeeper TO find a
job. i'm which he, or she. can support
themselves and their families: they
point the way for the realty man and
land and house owner to buy. rent,
sell, or exchange his property; they
point the way for the man who would
buy or sell or exchange a business to
do so, or for a business man to get a
partner with capital: they point the
way for the housewife TO get good eff
ficient servants and for her to make
money on the usable goods stored in
her attic; they point the way for
people to buy second hand things, that
are as good as new, at reasonable
prices.
All these and hundred others are
the work of the Want Ads and the
work they are performing quickly,
efficiently aud az practically no cost
day after day
Wouldn't II pay you to make your
self acquainted with this Want Ad
hunting dog when you go out into
the field of business endeavor?

hibiting Standing in
Picture Houses
OWNERS HAD
ASKED FOR CHANGE

Representatives of the motion pic
ture theatre owners conferred with
City Council last night in reference
10 the ordinance adopted some time

The ordinance contains clause
which prohibits standing i'm the rear
Of the theatres or in the aisles. In
the rear of most of the theatres there
is a space separated from the seats
by railing. back of which IL has
been the custom of many patrons to
stand for a minute or two after en-
tering so they can get accustomed TO
the daI kness or half light and then 10
look about for a seat
1t was said by the proprietOrs that
under the new law patron cannot
even stand back Of this railing for a
minute or two. but that he has 10
proceed directly to a seat. They said
that if an officer should enter while a
patron was standing there waiting 10
get his bearings. the policeman could
arrest the proprietor on a charge of
violating the law
After hearing arguments on the
question, Council decided to allow the
ordinance to remain as il is.
