Of 1916, but chivalry meant more to
the little Jap racqueter. who has re-
fused to enter the competition at
Forest Hill. .,4 -.
The cream of American tennis play
ers are in government service. In
fact. with the exception of Kumagae,
all of the first ten of 1916 are serving
the government. Under those circum-
stances Kunagae believed it would be
rather unfair for him to compete for
the championship against those who
are left, players who do not represent
the highest form of American tennis.
Kumagae was entered in the nation
al doubles at the Longwood Cricket
club, Eostor. however, being paired
with Harry Taylor.
His action in refusing to take part
in.lthe singles gave the little Jap a
place in the hearts of American ten
mis- lovers which is won only by those
showing the highest sort of sportsman.
ship
Kumagae first became known to
Americans in 1916 when with another
Jap he came here to compete Nin the
national doubles and singles. Al
Though the orientare were unable to
win in either their play was so re-
markable and iKumagae's singles per
formances Of so high a caliber that ne
Twas placed in the first ten, the all
American of tennis.
ri Kulnagae is left handed !. and his
stvolleying is the most terrific seen or

AS to "style" we have very little to- say.
The man writes best who takes the least
thought of style as he writes. :,
The striving for style usually results in
spelling any natural ability that writer
may possess It results also, usually, in pro-
ducing an affected, unpleasant, and uncon-
vincing method of>expressing thought.
Style in writing has no value unless it ex-
presses the natural thinking process ola ma
turally interesting mind, with concentration
and care added.
AS to the writing of advertisements, we
should give no advice other than that which
we should give to the man who might want
to write play, Sermon a legal argument,
or declaration of independence.
The really successful writer of ADVERTISE
ments must be very able wrter--BE-
CAUSE HE CAN'T BE SUCCESSFUL UN-
LESS HE CARRIES CONVICTION.
The successful writer of advertisements,
in addition to being CONVINCING, must be
INTERESTING.
He must begin his advertising statement
in such way as to interest the jaded reader,
for whose attention thousands are clamor-
ing.
And, having fixed that readers passing in
terest, he must convince him of both the
truth and the Importance of what he has to
say.>
In addition to being interesting and con-
vincing, the good writer of advertisements
must be BUSINESSLIKE. There must be a
sincere, practical ring to what he says. If
man is asked to spend money, he likes to
feel that he is dealing with practical, COM
petent man. .s
Therefore, the really good advertisement
must be interesting, convincing, businesslike,
and practical.
In addition, the good writer Of ADVERTISE
ments possesses, of course, the quality of
terseness. He must yearn to be brief, with
out being dull and colorless.
The man who writes advertisements
spends his employers money with every
word that he puts down. His words must
each have a value-or, at least, not one of
them must be wasted.
When we consider the qualities which
good writer of advertisements must possess,
it is very easy to. understand that certain of
these writer's find their profession more
profitable than that of the successful writer
Of fiction or plays.
1t may be said, in fact, that any writer,
no matter what his ultimate literary ambi-
tons might be, could add to his equipment
and his efficiency by taking a course in the
writing of advertisements under a good
teacher /.
Some of the cleverest writing that is done
in the United States is done by ADVERTISE
ment writer's. The English is good, the
thought is novel, the style is original, BE-
CAUSE THE THINKING PROCESSES ARE
ORIGINAL.
The literary person would be very foolish
who should affect to consider the writer Of
advertisements as necessarily inferior to the
writer Of other literature
And any man would be doubly foolish if he
