LESSON IN
ADVERTISING
Professor LindIey Thinks Publicity Is
Greatest Marvel of the Age.

Setting aside the generally accepted
belief that electricity and flying ma
chimes are the greatest marvels of the
age, Dr. E. H. Lindley, president of
the University of Idaho, last week stat
ed in Pullman, Wash, that in his be-
lief the greatest marvel of the present
age is the remarkable development of
advertising to that point where the adj
vertiser can impress his wishes upon
people, possibly thousands of miles
away, and cause them to do the thing
the advertiser wants them to DO.
President Lindley spoke on the sub
ject ct Pays to Advertise" hsi ad-
dress being the feature of the annual
open meeting OF the Fortnightly Club
of Pullman. The speaker dealt with
advertising from the standpoint of
psychology its effect upon the mind of
the person it reaches. He gave num-
Der of interesting tests to the audi
ence to prove that constant advertis-
ing impresses the item advertised upon
the minds of the people, quoting parts
of time-worn advertising slogans while
the audience clamored to complete the
slogan.

German Illusion
Shattered, Says
Berlin Newspaper

LONDON, Aug. T.-Thc despondent
tone ofthe latest German press com
ments is emphasized daily in special
dispatches from Holland. A dispatch
to "The Daily Nail" from The Hague
to-day includes an editorial by the
"Dusseldorfer Nachrichten," which says
that nobody, looking into the future,
can see an end to the war
"F'or though it is true that the end
might come quickly,' it adds. "it could
only be an end Of terror as in Russia" "
The "Norwarts." Of Berlin. SAYS
that events Of recent days at last have
shattered the illusion. created by in
splrcd optimism, that Germany is in
vincible. 1t says:
"The German people at last realize
the colossal gravity of the situation.
Let US have courage to admit that as
long as the war is not ended it is not
won and can be lost"
The principal North German organ
of tho majority Socialists. the "Riir-
gerZeitung," of Bremen. says
BLACK and dark is the hour The
sacrifices made by the people are i'm

of the war will be gigantic. but no re-

There was cons derable feeling last

nothing more was heard of it, he said.
The strict censorship of the spoken and
written word makes an estimate of the
ion practically impossi ible. The Soviets
cannot be called representative even of
the proletariat said the dean, because
aTltatOrs from the central committee of
the Bolsheyiks attend elections of dele
gates and usually through their elo-
quence are themselves named to repre-
sent the various soldier and laboring
groups.
Life in Primitive Forms
Life in Russia has been reduced to
most primitive forms. The simple
means Of exchange evolved by centu
ries of civilization have been replaced
by direct barter. During his travels in
European Russia he had for two
months as companion delegate from
the province of Yaroslav, who was in
search of community having and will
ing to exchange sixteen carloads Of
grain for sixteen carloads of manu-
factured articles.
The name "Bolshevik' and the ap
pellation "Tovarishtch" (comrade) have
beer polluted by numberless criminal
adherents, so much SO that the last
term has now taken the meaning of
