WHAT DO THE CLASSIFIED ADS
MEAN TO YOU?

8 Do the classified calumns mean to you
merely whole lot Of small type set
pretty compactly, and sub-divided by
various headings?
II they do, you are having a pretty
sound sleep, right in the midst Of the
clamOr OF busy world.
For, to people who are wide awake to
the things that are happening about
them, the classified ads represent some
thing Of much more moment than the
style of type in which they are print
ed. These little ads pulse with life,
with messages of intimate import and
moment to live people.
They afford contact with opportuni-
ties for those who are climbing up the
ladder Of success They serve the bu-
siness man who needs help, the pro
perry owner who wants to sell, the land
lord who has something to rent, the
man or woman who has something to
sell.
They may mean to you just as much
as they mean to anybody else. It is a
mere matter Of realizing their signifi-
canoe, Of utilizing the service they rem
der, Of getting in touch with the cur
rents Of life in this city.
Read them-for facts about things that
should interest you. Use them-for
tasks which you cannot accomplish
without their aid. Then they will mean
to you utility and service such as you
will find nowhere else.

A Great Historic Character.

4 s : 4
When one Of our great Americans
passes into history, old animosities
soften down. Our political differences
I do not go deep. And so men of all
political faiths will regret the passing
of Theodore Roosevelt.
Even those whose point of view was
most antagonized by his virile person
atty, will feel that he had many quail
ties that our young men should emu
late He was for one thing the eX-
ponent of the idea of frankness and
openness in politics. He came on at a
period of underground and underhand
public life, when the affairs Of the ma
ton and state were fixed up in quiet
corners by whispering and double deal
ing politicians. His work for civil
service reform has done much to puri-
~ our national life.
Roosevelt was a leader in new style
of political conduct. His theory was
to say what you mean and mean what
you say, to express opinions frankly
and openly, call spade spade. He
believed in taking your case direct to
the people, looking to the people for
support rather than to the devious ways
OF underground politics
In this style of action his success
afrected our entire public life. The
public has come to demand that policy
soof frank, open showdown. Politics
have come out more into the open, and
gum shoe work ais more. .discred1ted
through his influence.
5ss 1t is quite possible that if a man Of
Roosevelt's stamp and forethought had
been president when. the European war
started, that such steps would have
been taken by this country as would
have forced termination Of hostilities
in few months and before our country
would have been compelled to enter the
conflict. A square look at the ''big
stick may have caused the nations to
think twice before beginning the terri
