A WORD TO ADVERTISERS.

Those connected with the sales departments o the big mercantile establishments which have to make many sales to many people, learned long ago tha THE TIME TO ADVERTISE IS WHEN BUSINESS IS DULL When business is good and everybody is buy ing there is much need to try to convert the prospective purchaser when business is slow. The only man who can afford not to advertise is the man who cannot supply the demand for what he has to sell.
 The other day, J. P. L. Graves, manager of tho Juneau Music Store, received letter from Lyor Healy of Chicago, the worlds greatest dealers 1T Everything in Musc,' that shows very clearly tht result of the experience of house that has hat much Discussing advertsing Lyon & Heay, address ing dealers, said
 MT. Selfridge, the former manager of Mar shall Fields, who few short years ago started an American department store in London and developed it that it is now one of the most representative stores in the world recently said:
 "'The day after war declared, I increased advertising space. From that day have been buying all of the advertising space avail able. l would do more advertising if could get the space
 I've are limited only by the limitations of the newspapers We taking right now every inch that they will give and at rates that would make in the States turn somersaults and fall backwards.
 "I am paying at the rate of $1OO per agate line and l will take more space if they will
 
 t" The first four months of this year have been the biggest four months in history. This growth has come because have forced it. At the beginning of this year the sixteenth largest house of the kind in the world At the end of this year will be the sixth Within two years after the store building is completed will be the first.
 |" A big factor in this record has been news paper advertising. We had to all could. We made people stop look and listen then the store itself did the rest.
 " Now more than at any other time it is ess2ry to push display advertising. IF RE- TRENSIICMENTS APPEAR NECESSARY THEY SHOULD BE MADE IN EVERY OTHER DE- APARTMENT BUT THE NEWSPAPER ADVER- TISING ONE.
 The business who fails to realize that right now in times he should drive ahead with his advertising greater speed than ever before has ovelooked golden opportunity At no time in the history of business has advertising paid such afge returns
 Make yourself the most representative newspaper advertiser in your city.
 Yours very truly,
 LYON HEALY."

A U-BOAT FAILURE.

The explanation of the failure of the U-boat to stop the transportation of American troops offered by the Wolff Bureau is not new, even in Germany According to this German authority, the U-boats when they sink transports do not further the prin- ccip of submarine warfare, whatever that may mean, because transports well conveyed that the greater part of the them will be saved anyway, so that trying to sink them is waste of time.
 franker statement of the so conveyed would be in the form of an admission that the U- boats do not drown American soldiers because they cannot, and to that should be added the fact that the U-boat pirates have little stomach for the job because they themselves likely to be drowned or shot if they get near fleet of fighting ships.
 To further the principle" of U-boat warfare that principle is held in Germany it is nec- essary to get within range of something that is de- fenseess or nearly This fact is being slowly

Where MT. Sulzer's Ability Is Seen.
Anchorage Democrat.)

We earnestly commend to those who have Alas kan interests heart, well those who might be unacquainted with MT Sulzers ability in pre- senting claims Congress in the right way, the perusa of the Congressional Accord for June 5 where the committee having the matter in charge reviews the appropriation for the Alaska Engineering Commission It true, of course, that the Delegate from Alaska unsuccessful in securing the full amount asked for by the Commission, but good fight for worthy object is entirely lost.
 As comprehensive review of Alaskas claims, of it's importance commercially at this time, and at all times, with relation to the aggregate wealth of the Nation and the necessity of carrying the development here undertaken by the Department of Interior it is par eXcellenc and crdit to MT Sulzer Space will not permit at this time to quote eX- cerpts from MT. Suzers speech, all of it should be read by every resident but sincerely trust not from
 political standpoint at all that the information con taned therein might have general circulation among those who should know what Alaska has to offer in the way of varied industries and opportunities.
