 Third-There can be no league, or alliances or special understandings with any two or more nations with out consent of the general or com mon family of the league of ma tiOns.
 Fourth-There must be no selfish economic combinations within the league nor the uSo of an economic boycott, except as means of disci plne against any nation for the good of all.

LOCAL PUBLISHERS WILL
GLADLY ASSIST MERCHANTS

One Of the most important fac
tors in successful advertising is
often overlooked by the small city
merchant. the use of prices in store
publicity announcements. This is
especially true in their newspaper
advertising.
This lack, coupled with the fact
that they seldom give an article
advertised for sale an adequate
scription, accounts for many retail
merchants becoming unbeIievers in
the intelligent and persistent use Of
white space as means of building
better and more permanent trade.
No merchant would think OF
showing a customer an article in
4 light that is insufficient to dis
play its every advantage-no
more than he would refuse to quote
the price to the buyer. This being
true, then why should he expect his
newspaper advertising, containing
only a general statement Of his
stock, to fulfil its function-that
of intelligiently presenting sales
talk that will bring the customer, to
his store half sold, if not indeed
completely Sold,
A description of the advertised
article, one that will aid the pros
pective buyer to visualize the mer-
chandise and a price that will
answer the cost question always in
the prospects mind, are two most
essential factors in successful re-
tail advertising.
Of course, a timely Introduction,
proper display and typographical
arrangement rejecting the charac-
ter of the store must also receive
their portion of the advertise
ment's arrangements if he expects
to secure results.
He should put the same sales
manship into his white space that
he "Puts Over His Counter" 1t
should have just as careful atten-
ton. When this is done, the cost of
selling will not only be reduced, but
his trade territory widened and the
cash register sing hymn of hap
piness that will make his bank ac-
count swell with something besides
pride.
The merchant will almost al
ways find the publisher of the pa
alt "a. s. ~
per he uses ready and pleased ia
cooperate with him in arranging
his advertisement to the best ad-
vantage. Like the merchant, he
too, desires "repeat" business. He
expects to give satisfaction. Ad-
vertising is his business and his
suggestions, in most instances, will
aid materially in giving the mer-
chant just what he needs.

Drive by Women and Girls and Boy Scouts Aided by
 News From Front.

The sale of War Savings stamps yesterday amounted to over S3OcO. Mrs. w. T. Woodbridge, head of the committee, and her fifty young ladies who were stationed turnout the va l rlous public places during the day, were greatly encouraged over the re- suit of their efforts. Over $500 worth of W. s. s. were sold in Rosenberg's alone, 1850 in the Citizens bank. and other places accordingly, averaged up to quite large total.
 About fifteen boys, members of the Boy Scouts troop No. ?, worked dili- gently all day, riding the street cars, and selling the "baby bonds" to ali passengers.
 No doubt, the war news had some thing to do with the success of the sales, and it was shown yesterday that our people are realizing just how much we are going to have to "back up" our allies.
 What was probably a record sale of thrift and war savings stamps, in the thrift day campaign yesterday was made by Galbraith Gould. young son of Judge James Gould, his sales Ter the day amounting to $115.O0,
