what is lost in sugar. 4
One teaspoonful of sugar at each
place for each meal settles the matter
once for all. III n
What is a teaspoonful?
It's a cross between level and a
heaping teaspoonful. Do not allow
some members of the family to define
it as "heaping''-or the two pounds al
lotted them will quickly disappear
and borrowing" from the level
teaspoonful advocates will be neces-
sary. For cooking measurements use
the level teaspoonful-abOut the
equivalent Of two level spoonfuls-and
abandon the heaping spoonful alto
gether. The "heaping" spoonful
equals two ordinary spoonfuls and is
not fair play with the sugar ration
ideal. @
For serving individual sugar por-
tons use the small glass salt dishes
once so popular for celery and radish
dipping. They are pretty convenient,
and of the proper size. If another
sweet besides sugar, such as syrup,
honey. or molasses, is used to supple
ment the sugar, serve it in the usual
bowl or pitcher-but to be truly wise
and patriotic-do not serve both sugar
and SYRUP at the same meal!
Here are the best and latest sug-
gestions on sugar saving issued by
the U. S. Food administrator.
Cut out candy.
Use less sugar in beverages. Cook
cereals with chopped figs, dates, raj

SUGAR RATIONS!

For the first. time since war began
American housewives are subject to~a
food ration comparable to those to
which the housekeepers of our allies
are long accustomed.
The u S. Food Administration has
issued an edict which restricts our
use Of sugar to two pounds per month
per person. Dealers who sell more
are subject to fine and other. punish
ment. A small amount additional is
permitted Tor fruit canning purposes.
Two pounds of sugar month
amounts to 100 teaspoonfuls which
must stretch over 30 days. Evenly.
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1918-08-24

A well-known advertiser has asked The
Washington Times to publish "some ideas on
style" and some suggestions as to the most
effective manner of writing advertisements.
AS to "style" we have very little to say.
The man writes best who takes the least
thought of style as he writes. y ~
The striving for style usually results in
spelling any natural ability that a 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 Of ma.
turally interesting mind, with concentration
and care added. 80 r..
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 a play, sermon, a legal argument,
or declaration of independence.
The really successful writer of ADVERTISE
ments must be very able writer--BE-
CAUSE HE CAN'T BE SUCCESSFUL UNI
LESS HE CARRIES CONVICTION. r
The successful writer Of advertisements,
in addition to being CONVINCING, must be
INTERESTING. = = f.@@
He must begin his advertising statement
in such way as to interest the jaded reader,
for whose attention thousands are clamor-
I'M" "'' u 49, 81 -" - "s~ ii
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 BUSINESSL1KE. 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. ..#
Therefore, the really good advertisement
must be interesting, convincing, businesslike,
and practical .-E.
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 valut-or, at least, not one Of
them must be wasted. -
When we consider the qualities which a
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. y ',-ia> ---.. ..'''
It may be said, in fact, that any writer,
no matter what his ultimate literary ambi-
tions might be, could add to his equipment
and his efficiency by taking course in the
writing of advertisements under good
teacher. ...l t'' 2
: Some Of the cleverest writing that is done
in the United States is done by advertise
inent writer's. The English is good, the
thought is novel, the style is original, BE-
CAUSE THE THINKING PROCESSES ARE
ORIGINAL. #'' t'%#
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. a-svasA i.
And any man would be doubly foolish if he
