President Wilson on Advertising

Contained in the following letter to
the President of the Associated Ad-
vertising Clubs of the World.
The White House
October II, 1915
My dear Mr. Houston:
Advertising is factor of constant
ly increasing power in modern busi-
ness, and it very vitality affects the
public in all its phases, particularly
since the mediums for the dissemina-
tion of advertising have increased so
remarkably in recent years. For bust
ness men, therefore, it is of the ut
most Importance that the highest
standards should be applied to ad-
vertising as to business itself.
The country is to be congratulated
on the work of the Associated Ad-
vertising Clubs to establish and en-
force ode of ethics based upon can
did truth that shall govern advertis-
ing methods, and the effect of its work
should be of the greatest benefit to
the country. It augurs permanence
and stability in industrial and dis
tributive methods, because it means
good business Judgment, and more
than that, it indicates a fine concep-
tion of public obligation on the part
of men of business, a conception that
is one of the inspiring things in our
outlook upon the future of national
development.
Cordially and sincerely yours,
WOODROW WILSON,

FITTING CHILDREN TO LIVE

The children of well-to-do parents
to-day are unfortunate. SAYS Prosi-
dent Emeritus Eliot of Harvard
speaking for the General Educational
Board. because they don't have TO do
house work or farm work. Thus
they miss the training of hand and
eye which played so large a part in
the bringing-up of their forebearers.
and which is more important i'm anv
sound scheme Of education than
mere theoretical book learning.
THE boy on the farm" says DR..
Eliot. has admirable opportunities
to train eye, ear and hand. He can
be always looking at the sky and
the soils, the woods, the crops and
the forests, having familiar inter
course with many domestic animals.

the same with the girl on the farm.
Even the city child trained to house
hold tasks has valuable advantages.

ROCK HILL FORMS
FIRE INSURANCE. co.
New Corporation VIII Have Capital
Stock of 100000. To Apply for
Charter.

Rock Hill, March lS.-For some
weeks there have been rumors that
plans were being made for the for.
nation in this city of a fire insurance
company. These rumors have cul-
minated in the meeting held last
evening, when number of prom
inent business men and farmers de.
cided definitely to organize a COM
pany with capital stock of $780,
900.
Among those in attendance were
t. l.. Johnson, Sidney Friedheim

c. l.. Cobb and Richard T. Fewell
committee frolp these will at
once attenl to the details and apply
for charter and business will begin
at the earliest possible date.
The tentative understanding is that
as "The Peoples Fire Insurance
Company" and it is understood that
only local business will be transac
ted. 1t will be the policy Of the
company to run upon a most conser-
vative basis. issuing policies prin-
cipally to small property owners of
the community who are at present
finding 1t difficult to secure ade-
quate protection on account of the
unsettled situation following the re-
cent withdrawal of number of for
eign companies from the state. 1t
is understood that the new company
has already made arrangements
whereby 1t will be protected by re-
insurance facilities offered by other
strong companies.

TELEPHONE SERVICE POOR.

1t has been a long time since We
have had anything to say concerning
Lancaster's telephone service but we
cannot longer refrain. in view ca the
fact that said service grows steadily
worse instead Of better. Where the
fault lies. we do not know and there
fore will not attempt to fix the
blame. But nobody can deny the
TO say the least of it. 1t is very

Save The Babies.

There is no better work that a
community can engage in than in
trying to save the babies. They are
to be the future citizens. Healthy
babies are more apt to make good
citizens than are those who are
brought up in squaIor or bad en-
virops. The better milk" crusade
here several years ago was a bless

We learn with regret from Super
intendent Wessinger's communica-
ton to-day that the high school will
not serve lunch to the Field Day
contestants this year as heretofore.
But whether or not the school chill
dren do so, lunch should be served
to all those who take part, as we'll
as the teachers of the county. Cant
the Chamber of Commerce extend
this courtesy?
