No, 6,-rHE ART OF, AD WRITING

Any man who sets out to write an
advertisement should regard himself
as a news writer, contributing news
to newspaper. If he can make his
ad sound like news it will sell goods.
The first thing is the head line
and the featuring Of the big news Of
the adj. Most newspapers find that
they can increase the sale of their
papers. and can induce more people
to read their news articles, by placing
large type heads over these articles.
The same principle APPLIES to an ad.
The heading should suggest the idea
that something is going on in that
store, some offering being made, that
it IS for the advantage of the public
to know about. Here is a typical one
frequently seen about now:
BIG AUGUST CLEANUP SALE
The name OF the store should invar-
iably be given in large type. The more
times the reader can see that name in
big type in his paDer, the more it
will stick in his mind.
Many advertisements content them
selves with simple lists of the things
for sale. That has some value, bat
there is no news in it.

Nearly all on the liht of circus per-

represent the third and fourth gener-

nearly two score.

gins almost at birth. Indeed, in the

Quite frequently we find rosebushes
not producing as fine large roses as
they did during other seasons. Some
thing is lacking, and If fertilizers have

else is needed.
Perhaps the roses need iron. Ono
thing is certain-a little iron will not
hurt them. Try burying a few cans

fat and bury them few inches be-

EXEMPTION BOARDS D,yrv

Now that the work of discharge and
exemption by the local board has ac-
tually begun and some of the drafted
men are being accepted and others re-
jected, the public should remember
that the duty Of the local board lis to
furnish to the government the req,rir-
ed quota OF men. To this end they
are to take every possible man for
the purpose in the order in which his
number was. drawn by lot 1t is not
their privilege to find every possible
loop hole by which the conscripteG
may be discharged. Every exemption
OF discharge, il unjust, works an in
jury, even though unintentional, to the
men whose numbers were drawn later,
because Of advancing them in the or
der of call. r"
1t should be understood that for the
guidance of the local board the gov
eminent denies kind and degree of
physical defect which renders a man
undesirable for military purposes, but
| at the same time reserves for itself
the right to decide, through it's army
surgeons at the camps, cases where
doubt exists as to physical fitness
Also in the matter of dependents, the
government aims to discharge from
military duty only those whose serv-
ice in the army would cause actual
want to their dependents. Under re-
cent federal rulings married men are
not to be exempted when the drafted
mans army pay or family will provide
for his dependents.
| These facts should be candidly con-
sidered by all who may be directly
concerned in this new military regu-
lation and necessity and who are d.
rectly affected by it. The duties Of
the board are very disagreeable and
it is lthankless job to say the least
which devolves upon someone. The
readiness and willingness of great
nation like the United States to de-
fend it's rights will hasten the close

There are comforting facts for those
who enter the war and for others
whose loved ones are drafted. Rodger
w. Babson has figured out very care
fully that the man who is picked for
the national army, the chances are
four to one that he will see little actual
fighting in Europe. II he reaches the
firing line, the chances of being killed
are 60 in 1000 in year, OF being
wounded, $50 in 1000. He will be less
liable to disease than if he is work
ing in city. Furthermore, if he is
connected with some branches OF the
service, such as the heavy field artil-
lery. he is no more likely to be killed
than if he were working on an Ameri-
can railroad.

CONSUMPTION

Now that the enactment of the
presidents conscription bill is as
sured as it ought to have been from
the first this country will avoid one
of the pitfalls into which England
foundeIed in the early part OF the
war.
This conscription bill is an entirely
different measure from the old draft
law of Civil war days During the
war of the Rebellion the volunteer
system was relied on to the limit and
it was only as a final resort that the
draft was used to force men into the
army.
Under those circumstances a stig-
ma was attached to the man who was
drafted and the volunteers looked up
en- him as a man who was put into the
army against his will instead of com
ing forward to the call of his country.
The present CONSUMPTION act is bas-
ed on different idea. The working
out OF this plan is under the theory
and actual practice that all of us are
conscripted.
Some of us because of age, lack of
physical vigor or through skill in es-
sential trades will not be permitted to
enter the army but are drafted just
the same to do our part on the farm,
in the factory or in the great business
organizations that are essential to car
rying forward war.
From the ranks of the young and
strong will be selected the fighting
men who will be called to the colors.
1t will be an honor to be drafted in
this way into the army.
While the rest of us who are drafted
to other service may be just as es-
sential to final success our jobs will
be tanner, without color. and without
hope CT glory.
To raise an army of two million
men will require two soldiers from
every one hundred OF population. 1t
will be a signal honor to be one of the
selected conscripts of this group We
who are drafted to other duties shall
be envious of the rank conferred.
Certainly there will be no disgrace
attached to the name OF conscript in
this war.
