The Tendency of Every
Man Is to Live up to
His Name
By j. r. HAMILTON
Former Advertising Manager of Wanamaker's, Philadelphia

Wherever you find a good name you will find some man
trying to live up to it. Character follows reputation far more
quickly than reputation follows character. No one ever lost his
good name except through folly.
What the world thinks of a man is the very best moral tonic
that is sold under the label of philosophy.
And it is the same with merchandise as it is with men. The
nameless thing is dreaded everywhere, while the thing with a
good name is usually good because you expect it to be.
Men grow proud of their products. You will find a manu-
facturer saying, "This shoe has got to be good because it bears
my name" You will find a Gamer saying, II cannot use I've any
more than I can tell a lie" You will find a clothing manufac-
turer saying, "If I am all WOOL my clothing must also be all
WOOL"
And so it goes with every single product that carries a brand
or a name. Whenever a man sets a standard, he strives to live up
to it; and whenever the world sets that standard, he doubles the
effort.
Which simply means, if you want the best, you must ask for
the best. And every time you ask, you make it better.
There is hardly one of you readers who does not know the
name of every good product on the market. From clothing to
sugar and from hosiery to baking powder some good name is
~indelibly fixed in your mind, yet, when you ask for an article,
most of the time you do not use that name.
And every time you fail to do SO, you discourage the maker,
you lower the Standard for yourself and you allow some inferior
thing to gain i'll strength and capacity.
Let this go home in your mind: You set the standard of mer.
chandise. The maker follows your ideals. Authorizations creep
in through your laxity. Whenever you ask for any old thing,
you get it.
While yor are reading the advertising news in this paper
today, make ur your mind to ask only for what you know to be
good; to learn what is best and demand it and to have no parley
with the namecss things Of trade.

City Aghast Over In
expected Death Of
Beautiful Vivian
Chopper.
Message from Patterson says
Young Lady Died Under
Influence Of Anesthetic.

Miss Vivian Chopper, aged l.
years, a. granddaughter Of Mrs. H
B. Chopper and a niece of Mrs. H
J. Williams, died at the Patterson
Sanatarium at 1920 o'clock moor
today, presumably from heart fail.
ure induced by the administration
of an anesthetic given for the pur.
pose of performing a slight opera
ton on the young ladies tonsils. The
family here received telephone no
tice this afternoon Of the unexpect-
ed tragedy and the family, friends,
and ac~quaintances of the beautiful
victim are aghast at the almost un-
believeable news.
Miss Vivian Chopper was a men,
Der of the class of 1917 at the Nor
gan City High School. Her beauty
and general charms of character
were causes for hailing her as one
Of the prominent members of local
society. Her home has been here
with her aunt and grandmother
since her early infancy at which
time she lost both parents. A sister
is iving<at'Jeanerette, La.
Miss Vivian Chopper went to the
Sanatarium at Patterson Sunday
evening to have her tonsils removed
or treated. The operation was said
to be slight and not ordinarily con-
sidered serious but the administra-
ton Of an anesthetic was necessary.
The anesthetic apparently was too
much for the young lady's heart and
she died before regaining conscious
ness.
Late word received is to the eff
feet that the funeral services over
the body Of Miss Vivian Chopper will
be held in the forenoon tomorrow at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Will
Gooch at Patterson. Mrs. Gooch is
q niece Of Mrs. H. B. Chopper. In
terment will probably be made in
the Patterson cemetery where others
Of the deceased's family have been
buried.
The hour for the services will be
II o'colck.

U. S. IN "DEFENSlVE WAR"
is VIEW OF DR.. O'REILLY
Speaker at Registration Celebration
Declares Purpose Is to Crush
Military Power Gone Mad

I'VE are fighting defensive war;.
DIR. Frank NJ. O'Reilly of the Catholic
University told a large gathering In
Franklin Park last night. at the cele-
bration of registration day held under
auspices of the Mid-City Citizens As
ISOLATION. The park was crowded with
spectators. and concert by the United
States Engineers Band preceded the
ceremonies.
Our purpose is to crush military
power gone mad. which, unless It is
crushed, will sooner or later attempt
TO crush u.s." DR.. OReilly said, in the
course of his address on Fighting Tor
Freedom" He said in part:
I'VE are not entering war of con
quest or aggression. We are not send
ing troops to rance to fight Europe's
political battl, !. Our purpose is not
to help Englar save her commercial
chestnuts from the fire,
'"rhe choice We are today called upon
to make is betw EN- the two concep-
tons of life-free ON or subsection. IT
is a question of defending the demo-
cratic idea of government for which
our fathers lived and died Having
made the German people idolatrously
subject to their government, Germany
would now lord it over all other ma
tons as we'll This is the attack on
democracy which must be repelled, II
we as nation are to continue to i've
that unmolested life of which the Pres
dent speaks.
1T makes no difference what prompt
ed our European allies to enter the
war. The question is not whether Eng
land and the others have hitherto been
true or false to democratic ideals
nation not fully true to democratic
principles is one thing; nation bent,
as Germany is. on crushing democracy
everywhere is another. The struggle,
as we are interested in 1t, concerns
conception of government for which
the allies are now forced to stand. and
for which we also must take up arms.
In a word, it is question whether we.
as free people. shall or shall not
exist"
A. J. Driscoll. president of the Mid
City Citizens Association, spoke en-
Enthusiastically of the spirit Of the young
men of Washington. as shown by the
prompt registration. He urged indi-
vidual citizens as well as civic organ
izations to invest in liberty bonds.
pointing out that the mid-city associ-
alton had purchased a bond.
Songs by children of the Thomson
and Franklin schools were a feature of
the evening.

SECRETARY BAKER NOTES
"END OF APERFECT DAY"
Comment on Results of Registration
in Address to the Residents
Of Georgetown.

THE end of perfect day" said Sec
rotary Baker of the War Department.
addressing the residents of Georgetown,
his '.neighbors.'' last night. in the regis
tration day exercises held in Montrose
Park.
This was in comment on the result Of
| the registration over the country, which
passed without unhappy incident, show
ing that a republic is able to arm itself
In defense of its rights, despite the
doubt of autocratic nations.
Secretary Baker said he was glad the
nation was not prepared for war when
war came. The result. he said, has en-
abled the nation to present the spec
tacle of a democracy seeking the ways
OF peace, yet stern in defense OF the
right, and rising in its might to demon
gency.
The United States, he said. has sown
no dragons teeth. like Jason. to rise up
hEhting men; but it has sown the prin-
land to produce an army as efficient as
that which Jason produced. The people
have sprung up. as shown by registra-
ton results, ready to fight,
The youth of the country has re-
sponded. he said, not gaily like a nation
that likes to fight, but a nation meet
ing the necessity to fight. The purpose
of the United States, he said. is not to
add square inch TO its territory, but
to give rest TO the stricken peoples Of the
world and to restore the almost de-
stroyed civilization.
He commented upon the Kaleidoscope
changes in social conditions wrought
by war conditions. Nothing is the same
nothing will be the same after the war
he predicted. But conditions will be
better in that tomorrow than now for
Americas part III the struggle for hu-
mainly.
Americas principles. he said. are no
longer a matter of private position
in the society of nations. Her example
is a demonstration to the world that
democracy is able to develop the
strength to fight for what is right
eous and smakes democracy an exam
pie to all peoples.
The war. he said. is due to the fact
that a nation has set gain above God,
has abolished righteousness and fair
dealing and has caused a complete
surrender of civilization and the safe
guards for protection of the innocent
bystander. In part. at least, that ma
ton has subscribed to assassination
at sAa and the casual slaughter of
women and children-of the bystander
and the inoffensive.
The United States is on the right
side, he asserted. in entering the war.
The republic will never turn back, he
confidently declared. until it has given
the world peace-a peace based upon
righteousness. And the nation is now
in the business of summing up the.
resources of the greatest people on
earth in the purest mission that any
nation has ever followed.
H. B. F. Mcfarland former District
Commissioner. was the only other
speaker. He gave his voice for
peace at any price. Service and sac
rifice, he said. are easy for people

tion OF whether democracy or autocracy

tory.

dent Wilson. stStlng that to his mind
the presidents recollection was a work
OF DIVINE guidance. President Wilson

brias about peace and victory
President Wilson kept us out of this

One hundred and thirty-nine members
OF the police force are between
the ages of twenty-one and thirty
years. inclusive, and. therefore, that
many names were returned by the
registrars, the captains of the several
precincts serving in that capacity.
There are many members of the force
who have seen service in the army or
navy. and many Of these express a will
ingness to respond to their country's
call. Several already have volunteered
their services and two OF them. Bosier
Castle and R. E. Drummond. have been
accepted.
Many Of those who were in active
service with the military forces are
too old to return to that service under
the present call. but a number are ell
eible. and 1t is believed some Of them
will be taken later on. Thirty-three
members of the force of the first pre-
