PLEA FOR CLEAN ADS.
New York Man Addresses Des Moine'
Chamber Of Commences. a

| Chamber Of Commerce..
Des Moines, May "A plea for
clean and constructive advertising
was made to the Des Mbines chamber
Of commerce today by G. =. La Vigne,
Of Now York, former special agent for
the federal trade commission. At the
present time Mr.. La Vigne is director
OF the bureau of investigation main-
tanned by prominent New York daily
newspaper in campaign for truthful
advertising and the elimination OF I'M
fair merchandising.
Mr.. La Vigne said In part:
I'm the field Of advertising there is
law as relentless as is Gresham's
law, but we may put it conversely:
bad advertising. 2
iclearly. is obtaining money under false
pretenses.. It deserves the contempt Of
every honest. upright business man as
well as Of the purchasing public.
Dwell on the responsibilities you as
sumo for everything you sell. 1t might
properly be said that advertising, thru
which your goods are sold, has become
a great national science. It encom-
passes tIOCal SlnVeSCInenC ACCORDING u
statistics OF some $700,000.000 In this
country. In connection with this sci
ence how shall weeterm truth? Truth
in advertising cannot be measured by
the yard or by the gallon. In its sim
plest form let us accept this definition:
Real honesty in advertising is the
writing of words that cannot possibly
create false impression in the mind
of the reader. Since it may be said
that advertising is the mouthpiece of
business it can be assumed that If we
are to have an honest business we must
have an honest mouthpiece. The work
of the advertising writer is to inform
the public and he can do a lot toward
keeping his advertisements thoroly
honest: but the buyings public Is not
entirely blameless y
$50 long as the buying public con-
Ftlnues to tear its clothes and lose its
manners in the mad rush to reach the
bargain counter at the invitation of the
lure of free goods reduced prices and
disguised offerings out of reason. so
long will the Inscriptions merchant.
the manufacturing pirate and the trade
trickster combine in foisting fakes and
worthless articles on the consumer"

Fort Dodge, May 4.-The old log
cabin in Oleson park, in all probability
the oldest building in Fort Dodge, is
to be restored and furnished as nearly
as possible like it's original state by
the local order Of D. A. r.
The cabin was once part of the
fort the first provision made in this
vicinity for protection against the In
dams, and it was then used for Off
GERS quarters. Later after the old
fort had grown into the town of Fort
Dodge the cabin lost it's identity in
the walls of the Arnold home, which
was Of frame and built over and
around the old cabin The cabin was
discovered when the Arnold home was
torn down to make room for the new
Wahkonsa school, about four years
ago.. The D. A. r. then secured the
little cabin and moved it to Oleson
park, where it is to stand for the re-
mainder of it's days, fitted up to re-
semble it's appearance when it formed
part of the refuge for the first settlers
The exterior and interior are. in good
condition and it promises to endure

Several donations have already been
received by the D. A. r. for the cabin.
Mrs Helpers daughters have contri-

some candlesticks.. A couch that was
in the home of the late Mrs. Margaret
Garmoe. who lived in the city in the
days Of the log cabin, has been con-
tributed toward the furnishing and
Mrs. G.. F. Riddle presented an old
flag. The aid Of all the residents OF
the city Is asked by the D. A. r. in
securing old pieces of furniture and

Fire starting from an unknown

rand machinery, barn and sheds owned
by John Marak, and threatened for
time to destroy the two-story building
occupied by the postoffice and drug
store Friday night Of last week. A
number of chickens and q hog belong
ing to Mr. Rian, were burned to death.
The fire had gained good Roadway be-.
fore it was discovered at 1890 o'clock
by Mr.. Chuheli, who gave the alarm. A
bucket brigade was formed and every
body in town worked until Q O'clock
Saturday morning when the fire was
under control. But for the faithful
work Of the townspeople and the alb
sence of a wind to scatter the burning
debris, the whole town would have
been destroyed. Long before the fire
was out the water supply had been ex-
hausted, and it was necessary to use
the water from the cisterns. The loss
is estimated at $4,000.

murders are the work of a lot of bandits
who are defying their government. There
is a large force in Congress which in
sists upon the president sending a few
regiments down into Mexico and clean
out the marauders. The president refus-
es, saying that is Carranza's business and
he is doing all he can.
But that does not satisfy the furorists

Gently on the election of Lloyd c. Stark

Western Association of Nurserymen, the
ST. Louis Republic said
This adds additional interest to
the fact that this great Missouri

growth on the site of the original

acres it has developed into the larg-
est concern Of its kind in the United
States.
For any business to have lived for 100
years is a noteworthy accomplishment
To have lived 100 years and been a con-
stant factor in the increased production
Of more and better fruits for the family
is even more noteworthy.
Stark Bros are pioneers in encourag
ing the planting of more fruit for the
good of the public, rather than indivi-
duals, and not from purely commercial
motives. Due to an awakening of the

Refusal Of the Republican state COM
mittees to endorse the administration Of

but it looks like a mighty poor brand Of
politics Willis deserves better at the
hands o fthe committees. The Republi

an opposing party standpoint it creates

he profited came out of Republican
mouths. Spellbinders of the Republican

Willis administration comes at face val
