FOUR MINUTE MEN

TT WHAT extent is speech important in propaganda The press large extent has superseded oral nstruc- on but not entirely Thousands of people but scanty reached by the printed words The oral expression the governments views is to these useful.
 Also the printed word has codness which does not exist in speech There life and vgor in the thought municated by word of mouth
 The four minute do a useful work The audiences being already assembled make sacrifice of me Very great audiences reached in few moments mul taneously addressed upon the topic.
 The message will be delivered with greater vgor according to the preparation of the speaker and his quality
 How does this work measure up propaganda against moving pictures These surely most efficient means of instruction.
 There is point at which the test may be made Mere thought is something requiring from those addressed mme- das acon is not measurable But where speeches require action to be performed they may be compared with pie lures which also demand action.
 Four minute talks have proved effective in obtaining immediate registrations for shipping board service They have proved far efficient than pictures where the demand has been for money.
 collection following good four minute speech will bt much larger other conditions being equal than collection following stimulating picture, which concludes with the ad monition to give money.
 Money talks It must be concluded that the minute speech, we'll delivered is rather efficient than other forms of propaganda.

LOUIS NAPOLEON.

Prince Louis Napoleon, the grand nephew of Napoleon l., has been in the unfortunate position of a warrior out of a job while nearly all Europe and America is at war. The prince is the son of the late Prince Napoleon, who died in 1891, and the Princess Clotidlde, sister of the late King Humbert of Italy. His older brother, Prince Victor Napoleon, is the Bona partist pretender to the imperial throne of France. Prince Victor and Prince Louis are descendants of the emperor's brother Jerome. Prince Louis Naoleon was long an officer of the Russian army.
