The Socialists of Europe are
seeking to unite and arouse a pub

WORLD NEWS

The center of interest in the Eu-
ropean war has shifted during the
week to the eastern frontier. The
Russians have begun an aggressive
movement TO drive the Germans
back from the region around Riga.
Heavy attacks have been made
along a wide front but nothing de-
cisive has happened. The attacks
have been driven back by the Ger
mans with CREST losses.

Germany's attitude toward the
territory conquered and occupied is
becoming more apparent each day.
The Belgians are proving a stub

of nationality is strong. Poland is
proving more pliable TO German
plans. The Poles are divided among
themselves. Germany has recently
introduced her language into their
schools and seems to look forward
to permanent occupation.

1t was pointed out that it was imma.

Trail was routed through Lawton or
Mangum but Chickasha was ready to
take on any good roads proposition
that was practicable and it was believ-
ed that road from here to Cement
would be of great benefit to the trade
interests of this city.
County Commissioner Robinson said
state highway had already been laIu
off from Chickasha to the county line
not far from Cement and it was
planned to put this road in first class
condition by the first of the year

THE SNAIL lDvERTIsER-

People who do small business some
times say it is of no use for them to
advertise, since their notices win be
obscured, by the much bigger space
taken by large concerns. That point
of view is often the principal reason
why their business remains small but
the remedy is in their own hands.
: Their feeling does not accord with
their everyday experience OF people
who have made study of the advertis-
ing game. In most newspapers there
is a certain class OF small notices that
attract attention entirely out OF pro-
portion TO the space taken.
The reason is apt II be that the
proprietor OF the store writes the ad.
himself The proprietor of the bigger
concern is apt to delegate the work 10
a subordinate. 1t is fact that no one
can talk so well about business as
the proprietor himself His mind is
full of it, ne sees the strong points
of his line better than anyone else who
does not know II as we'll and he can
readily grow quite eloquent ca this
subject. II he viii write the notice
himself. he usually makes a good one.
unless he commits the error Of 1lling
a small space with too much fine type.
If he feels that he can afford Dnly
small space. he should Just pick out
one or two things. describe them. ari
give the price. Every newspaper has
specimens of advertising so well done
In small space as 70 he exceedingly

wit or cIeverness is shown. 1t is 5hat
the writer has simply put into them the
same everyday wisdom that he will

mer I'm his store. Done In this way, an
advertisement has flavor of every--
day sense that interests people. and
