There has been delay in the or ganization of the American commis- sion because of the difficulty the President has experienced in getting hold of the right men as represen- tatiyes of the United States. Secre- tary Lane has accepted the chair manship of the commission, but it is certain that Associate Justice Bran dels will not serve, because it Is necessary for him to study the cases before the Supreme court in preparation for the october term.

 The authorities believe that the more formidable the American force along the border the greater is the chance of securing an adjustment of all questions pending between the two countries. It is remarkable that the tone of Carranza's com munications change completely when the militia was sent south.
 The First Chief is still obsti- nate as to the scope of the com missions work. He wants it limited to border questions. though he has Indicated chat when they are settled he may permit the remaining mat ters to be disposed of Carranza. it is argued, will be more conciliatory if he sees this government is in @ position to do business should he adopt a stifI-necked attitude.

 How did these supplies get from Japan to the Russian front?' the observer was asked.
 How Supplies Are Delivered
 "It was noted,' said he, that about the only vital point where the Germans had not been able to send their submarines was in the waters Of the East China Sea, the Straits of Korea and the Sea Of Japan. These are the waters separating Ja- pan from Russia and the Aslatic mainland and the routes over them. commercial and military are open and without menace"
 What sort of arms and munitions is Russia getting from Japan"
 "All sorts" was the reply, from the service rifle and small field pieces up to the big twelve inch guns"

The only Japanese and French officers are those emporarily assigned to expiain the workings Of new piece, just as an expert is sent along to explain any complicat- ed piece of machinery.
 Japanese experts accompanied the big twelve-inch Japanese guns, not to maneuyer them in action, but to explain how they were to be maneuvered. That is the extent Of their help, and the Russians should get full credit for what they have 1 accomplished in operating their ar tiHery.

SaLesmamSbjb js AdvertjSjNg

We always look upon our advertising as the mirror of the store" says l. R. Parsons, advertising manager of Carson, Pirie, Scott x Co.,, in speech delivered before the members of the National Commissary Managers ASso- citation.
 Mr. Parsons subject was Retail Advertis- ing demonstrating the practical values of writ len saleSmanship Advertising, as we under stand it, is anything that creates an impression of person, a thing or business, and adver- tisng. if it attans its highest purpose, creates a favorable impression, creating also desire and aiding in it's fulfilment" declared Mir. Parsons.
 "Salesmanship seldom attempts to create a desire, for generally the province of sales man is simply to catch good order and let 1t go at that But advertising does more than this for its purpose is to gain attention, to in- terest, to instruct, to sell and to hold the at tention and the regard of favorable impression it has made upon all who come under iys influence
 
 We try to create an atmosphere around our advertising that will reflect the atmosphere of the store itself so that person picking up newspaper in which our advertisement appears will consciously or unconSciouSy get a fairly good mental picture of our store helping in this way to create the desire to trade with us. This is accomplished in several ways, by type style by continuity of pleasing illustrations, by the style of our writing and the way we write of our store and the way we manage it.
 "Our advertising is written remembering that intelligent men and women know that an organization of this kind must have scientific, highly efficient merchandising machinery, con- stantly in operation, and, that, therefore, when the phrase unusual value, is written it can and does represent concrete and dependable statement of fact to the purchaser
 
 Today a stores advertising largely takes the place of that personal element typical of the old one line store where the proprietor had the opportunity of coming in contact with his customers one by one. If man has per sonality strong enough to carry throughout his store, whether it be big or little, a personality that his clerks can see and unconsciously ac- quire, that man has an individual store. It is the atmosphere which the advertisement car ries with it that accompishes most and atmos- phere is after all only another word for per sonality."
 The Empire, as a mirror, reflects the iin- pression an advertiser would create to 1000 to 10000 readers daily.
