The Best Illustrations OF the Power of
Advertising Are Right Here
in Philadel phia

THE largest publishing business in the world
has been built here in Philadelphia through
- the power of advertising.
So was the Wanamaker business, the Victor
Talking Machine Company, the Joseph Campbell
Company and plenty of others.
What these houses have done proves you can do
anything in Philadelphia that can be done in any
large city. To say Philadelphia is different; that
your business is different and that advertising
not help you, is ignore the fact that advertising
has proved it's power in all lines of business.
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1919-03-31

That you cannot meet present demand nor secure
necessary materials excuses fo- not
putting the power of advertising into your business.
We cannot supply the demand for advertising
space in publications. We had to decline
full million dollars worth of business for March.
But we continue to advertise just as continue to
manufacture Each is an essential part of our
business and both must be continued if we would
always be prepared to meet future conditions.
Advertising is necessary to your fullest growth,
and your business of the future depends upon your
advertising today.

Surrender of Rights for
Others Is True Test of
Character.

Rights surrendered for others are
the true and final test Of character, &"
the Rev. j. Harvey Dunham, pastor
Of the Western Presbyterian Church.
said in his sermon yesterday morn
ing.
Durham illustrated his sermon with
the story of Christ in the Garden of
Gethsemane.
"If He had wished" he said. He
might have summoned the angels and
saved Himself from the soldiers of
Pontius PLATE. But he refused to
save Himself and died for others
surrendering His rights for the good
of mankind"
The world. Mr.. Durham said is apt
to insist too strongly upon its rights,
forgetting the lesson of seIf-sacrifice
taught by Christ's refusal to call for
divine aid.
We must learn to suffer even un-
Justly rather than risk doing wrong
by too great an insistance upon our
so-called rights. remembering Il is
better TO go the second mile rather
than refuse to 60 at ALL" he said
Some OF our rights should be in
sisted upon, but others are best sur
rendered for the good of all. and it is
this surrendering that is after all the
final test OF character and sincerity

SUCCESS MADE
OF GOOSE FARM
Henderson Says There Is
More Profit in Fowls
Than Agriculture.

Paris, Mo-, Aug. a.-An exclusive
goose farm is the latest undertaking
in poultry way in this part of the
country. The man to adopt the unique
idea is Claud Henderson, member OF
a local poultry firm. who has jus,
purchased a farm of seventy-four
acres near Monroe City, for which
he paid N75 an acre.
Last year Mr.. Henderson handled
5000 geese and the venture proved
profitable beyond his most sanguine
hopes. and as the work was done
on rented farm he decided to &C
quire land of his own. where he could
develop ideas that he had in mind
for making even greater success of
the undertaking. On the farm Hen
derson has every modern device for
taking care OF the feathered stock, and
he pays especial attention to see
that no disease finds it's way into
the flock
Henderson says that by devoting ais
entire time to the geese he can get
much better results than engaging in
regular agricultural pursuits, and II
is more interesting business. He
says he will not confine himself to
5000 this season. but hopes TO have
double that number by the end of
the feeding season this fall.

DR.. Morgan Tells Why
Mans Supreme Love
Must Go to God.

The question confronting Chris

is to be shown a loyalty inferior to
that We give country or loved ones" :"

Morgan. last night at the First Con-
gregattonal Church, Tenth and G
streets northwest
Christ came into this world to
build continued DR.. Morgan. He
chose His material. What did He seek ?
he looked more for quality of souls
than for quantity, for God can do
more with half a dozen COURAGEOUS
souls than with a thousand who only
profess to admire Him"
Citing the Biblical story Of Gideon's
army, in which 1900 out OF 1900 left
because Of faint-heartedness.
This was a blessing. not a calan-
tty. declared DR.. Morgan. TT would
be better for Christianity today" he
added, "if many so-called Christians
were subtracted from the great num-
Der who call themselves followers OF
Christ This does not mean that the

dismissed from service, because they
are distnterested"
II love of father. mother, wife or
sweetheart fnterferes with our sery-
Ice OF God. We must forego their
love said DR.. Morgan. He gave n
an example the millions who left their
homes during the war because thev

RAYS FROM sun
SET BED ON FIRE
Window Acts as Burning
Glass lmperilling Lives
Of Children.

Philadelphia, Aug. A-Imperfections
IN window pane, making a sunglass
through which the rays were concen-
rated on bed in the home of Nor
ris kushner. OF 500 North Third
street, imperilled the lives of two
sleeping children
This is the explanation the firemen
offer for the fact that the bed on the
third fioor in which the children were
sleeping began to smoulder and then
burst into flames. Investigation show
ed that the rays were concentrated
on the bed in just such manner as
would have been caused with a burn
ing glass.
NeighbOrs saw the smoke issuing
from the third-story window, and told
the parents. They ran UP and found
tire bedClothes just breaking into
flames. Fannie. IL years old, and her
little brother, Abraham. 6, were still
asleep. They were picked up before
the flames reached them and, while
fremen were being summoned, Mr.. and
Mrs. Kushner, with the help Of the
neighbors, put out the fire.

Contrary Winds Encoun-
tered in Voyage of Life,
Pastor Says.

TT would be impossible to name all
the contrary winds which we encoun-
ter in lite's voyage" said the Rev.
William ]. Meeks, pastor OF Union
Methodist Episcopal Church, last
night in referring to "storm-tossed
men" in the fourth OF a series of
sermons on The Voyage Of Life"
Most OF these winds" the pastor
said. were unexpected. Such a con-
trary wind may unexpectedly come
through ones own house.
Such a contrary wind may come
through chronic ill-health suddenly
developed, but now persistent and bur-
densome and perpetually hindering
"Or the wind might arise from some
temptation that suddenly flashed upon
the life like a chain of lightning out
Of the clear sky-like sheets of rain
in a driving storm. Such a wind
might come from some great over
shadowing sorrow.
The sailor becomes a good mariner
not by padding a little boat in a mill
pond, but by launching out into the
deep and facing the heavy seas and
strong wind.
The very difficulties that men en-
counter-the head winds. the testing
times in storms they meet, together
with high purposes. steady will power
and carefully exercised powers OF
body, mind and soul-carTy the per-
sonAl life surely and steadily upward
to the goal of God-like character.
I'VE must remember that while we
are struggling with contrary winds on
the sea of life, Christ Is watching
His eye sees all"
