ORGANIZE COMPANY B
Thirty Men Out for Second Home
Guard Unit in Topeka.

Commander Humphreys. of Topeka
Home Guard Company B, started his
organization Monday night with
roster list of about 80 active mem
bers. At the meeting at the Chamber
of Commerce Monday night the-p plans
for the organization were outlined to
the prospective guardsmen, and the
organization was completed Com
pany B, of the home guard, is now a
reality, and it is possible that the
rival companies will be able to stage
a quite realistic sham battle by the
time summer is well under way.
According to the talks OF Captain
Hamlin and his lieutenants, e. c. Gil
ligan and George P. Morehouse, at
the meeting Monday night. the new
company of the home guard expects
to take itself seriously. and to drill
conscientiously to the end that such
of it's members as may be called to
the colors will be able to qualify for
the non-com jobs. Setting-up exer-
cises and the manual of arms and the
modern methods of training an army
will be used in this company of the
home guards according to its officers.
1t is the plan of the company to
drill in sthe Auditorium every Monday
night at 1880 O'Clock till the breezes
of summer sweep over Topeka, and
then the company will take to the
streets of the city and to the fields

HOW TO ADVERTISE
College Professor Says Copy Should
Be Clear and Appealing.

Manhattan, Kan, Jan. 22.-The
successful advertiser must study his
market and fit his commodity to the
needs of = e people to whom he hopes
to sell, believes H. w. Davis, associate
professor of English in the Kansas
State Agricultural college.
1.-The value of a selling point is de-
termined by the needs of the pubic,
said Professor Davis. THE best ad-
vertisirg consists in the emphasizing
of a point which appeals to the class
of people for which the commodity is
intended.
The business of the advertiser then
is to establish an association of the
markets needs with the commodity.
When such an association is formed
in the mind of the reader, every time
the need for such an article arises he
thinks Immediately of the advertised
commodity. Such an association
must then be made active. With the
thought of the commodity comes some
action toward making purchase.
Professor Davis believes that the
time is coming when the newspaper
man will insist upon copy being well
written. The ideal copy is that which
one does not see but which reads
without effort.
An advertisement must be interest
ing and attractive but not so clever
as to dctract from the interest of the
article itself. 1t must convince with
out arguing, and persuade without
begging.

FARM CONGRESS WEEK

Big Agricultural Program.

Emporia, Kan, Jan. 22.-The sixth
annual farm congress week conducted
by the Kansas State Normal school,
cooperating with the Kansas State
Agricultural college,, will =be held in

gram will be directed at the imme-
date solution of practical farm prob
lens.
C. R. Phipps. head of the depart
ment of agriculture at the State Nor
NAL and permanent secretary of the
farm congress, sent a QUESTIONABLE to
more than 100 farmers asking them to
name the things of most vital impor-
lance to them at the present time and
the program was made up with a view
to helping solve these problems. La
Dor saving devices and a better ssys-
TEN of marketing are the problems of
most general interest according to the
QuestionnaireS.
THE big problem of the farmer is
how to make the most out of his la
bor," Mr.. Phipps said today. Ma
chinery, management and marketing
are three things of vast Importance in
determining what he is going to make
out of his labor. These three prob
lens will be uppermost at the meet
ings of the farm congress and will re-
ceive special emphasis in connection
with all phases of the weeks study

1t seems as tho the citizens of To-

CT the 18Th Infantry Band. formerly
re Third Regiment Band, should
themselves meet the $500 and some
odd dollars expense that the band con-
cert in topeka last week cost. All this
morning the boys in the band have
been running around town trying to
borrow enough money from their
1-iends to pay their way back to Fort
Sill. Only about $500 has been re-
ceived in answer 10 the call sent out
for contributions for the expense fund,
and sec of this was donated this morn
ing; $50 by Hiram Dillon and $40 by

that it seemed incredible to him that

for the trip these boys made for the

Topeka that they will allow the boys

BOMBER JUST A "NUT"
Judge Believes Him Mentally Unsound
Gets One to Twenty Years.

Chicago, Jan. 22.-Rheinhold Faust,
who placed an incendiary bomb in
the auditorium theater during a grand
opera presentation several weeks ago.
was under an indeterminate sentence
of one to twenty years in prison today.
Judge Seaman, in passing sentence
late yesterday, declared he was con-
WINGED that Faust is not mentally re-
sponSible.
Faust, who wrote threatening let
tiers to James B. Forgan and Frank
o. Wetmore, chairman of the execu-
tive board and president, respectively,
of the First National Bank, pleaded
guilty to a charge of extortion. The
Peter Weisbauer, who called at the
bank for the grip expected to contain
the money Faust hoped to receive
thru his threats, was discharged on
the assumption that he was ignorant
of the significance of the part he
PLAYED.

CLUB HEARS MASON
supreme Court Justice Addresse.
Grace Cathedral Organization.

The yearly meeting of the Grace
Cathedral Church club, Monday even
ing, was one of the most successful
and enjoyable meetings in the clubs
history.
After partaking of an appetizing
supper prepared by the ladies of the
church, and the transaction of the
clubs yearly business, those present
listened to a most entertaining address
by Justice Henry F. Mason, and to a
musical program consisting of vocal
selections by Mr.. and Mrs. Hugh Dick
erson and Miss Jeanette Price
Judge Mason's talk had chiefly to
do with the proper attitude of the av-
erage American man toward the all
the world. And tho the theme of the
discourse was most serious the talk
abounded with witty but appropriate
anecdotes and illustrations.
Dean Kaye made a brief talk, Civ
ing few suggestions as to what the
members of the Cathedral Church
club might do, individually and col
lectively, during the coming year for
the growth of the church and the ad-
vancement of religion and human well
fare. During his talk it developed
that Grace Cathedral has contributed
forty-six of it's young men to the
American army in this, war, and that
every one of them was volunteer.
E. D. MckeeVer also, upon request,
made a short talk
The officers elected for the ensuing
year are: Richard White, president;
Earle c. Williams, vice president; and
Frank Scott Davis, secretary and
