"Only those on the spot" says a cor
respondent of a London paper, can
fully realize the devastation of the
woodland portions OF North Wales,
which has been carried on for the past
three wears. This is notably the case
in Carnarvonshire. where whole valleys
and mountain sides have been robbed
in order to satisfy the demand of the
government for pitprops and railway
sleepers. Notwitn standing the fact

moved runs into many thousands of

PersonI Influence.

To influence others one must have
hearty fellow feeling for them. be
willing to extend helping hand as oe-
casion demands, to cheer, to comfort,
to console. Which means that imag-
nation also counts for much in the
exercising of personal influence. The
unimaginative can never be genuinely
sympathetic. Sincerity, common sense.
forcefulness, courage, self-confidence.
decision, sympathy, keenness of imag-
ination-these above aught else are the
qualities that need to be cultivated by
all who would draw on the aid of per-
sonal influence In pressing forward to
the goal Of success.

How Parents Spoil Their Children

The will and the instructions Of the parents are the
LAWS which govern children.
The child is unfortunate whose parents are whimsical

that" another you shall not do that-one ordering
certain thing, the other fOrbidding it.

Organized Labor Wants Home

What Is the Use of An
Advertising Agent?
About Soap and Prosperity.

Some men make their wills to save the lawyer s
bill Their heirs pay the lawyers ten times as much
Few are foolish enough to build without an architect
Some try 1.-THE house is bad bargain
As foolish as the who builds house without an
architect the business man no matter WHAT his business
no matter how thoroughly HE knows it, who tries to get
the most of that business without the advice OF an
advertising expert
A man with anything to sell knows that he must have
statesmen. Advertising is THE WHOLESALE SALESMAN
Every business has in his mind idea that he would
like to get into the public mind he knows that If he could
do THAT he would be rich in hurry
When he wants to get goods from one State into an
other State he goes to a railroad.
When he wants to get an idea from his mind into the
public mind he should go the advertising expert for he
is the common carrier of commercial facts
Here is one case that ought interest merchants and
all business
A little while ago man making soap in this
country doing fairly good business amounting in all to
100000 year In view of competition he was fairly well
satisfied
He picked out real advertising expert whose agency
is among the ablest in the country
The advertising man said: "You have goods that can
be sold name that is good will undertake your cam
paign you will put into advertising this year certain
percentage of your gross receipts of last year. and continue
every year while you retain my services putting into adver
tising that percentage of your gross receipts
The soap man made the bargain little while ago his
business 100000 year This year his advertising
bill alone will be $S00000 his business many millions, and
his profits bigger than even he had dreamed.
He has increased the price to the public he has
paid his employees better wages.
That true short story of advertising contract
shows:
First Advertising is to busiD'S what tractors and
fertilizers to farm The be4f the farm the more
deserving of good cultivation The better the business the
more deserving of scientific advertising.
Second Advertising creates value diminshes rather
than increases the cost to the public by reducing the
head and giving fullest development the genius of the
manufacturer.
The world has entered upon great constructive and
reconstructive business.
Look about and select the right ADVERTISING EN-
GNEER.
There is not business that advertising cannot
make better.

ously, l get no attention from
them whatever. / also notice if
we girls relax our standards Of
what is proper, we do not hold
them long. 1t appears to be a
choice of spinsterhOod or a series
of 'rushes' that frankly mean
nothing more on the part Of the
man than the quest of a new girl
and a good time"
She added that she was
worker who had been away from
home for two years, and she signed
her letter Discouraged" and very
frankly 1 don't wonder at the sig
nature. However, I think she IS
in the position of the rural citizen
who went to New York and, after
reading of two murders and a
robbery in that village Of seven
million people, wrote to his home
town paper that he arrived stimuli
taneously with a tidal crime wave.
The girl is too young to realize
and make allowances for the ab-
normal effect the world war has
had on everything. II Il had not
been for the war, very probably
she would never have left home
and had the experience Which for
the time being has made her q
little bitter. Now. as the COM
pRnIon piece Of the latter, or as
tho French say, "the reverSe Of
the medal" / have a letter from
a young man IN which he says
with somewhat brutal cynicism:

The situation Is difficult, hi
admit, a young girl earning her
living In a strange city and, ap-
parently, fair game for everyone.

have survived the ordeal and coma

Of American womahhoed. It is
only when the enemy Is within
that a girl need fear, Tho young

Beatrice Fairfax Writes the Problems and Pitfalls of the War Workers
Especially for Washington Women

cabarets and cafes have their dark
moments, too, when they ponder
over the truth Of that plstitude re-
garding the inability to have ones
cake and also eat It.
You see a man is rather a help
less, blundering creature, almost
wholly lacking in those finer in
tuidons that enable a woman to
see beneath the surface and grasp
at the truth, while the man is con-
suming time with logic and analy-
sis. And If a woman labels her
self cheap, the man accepts the
label and at the same time has the
sneaking contempt we all cherish
for something intrinsically COM
mon.
So quite apart from any Of the
mid-Victorian virtues Of modesty,
delcacy, or decorum it is bad pol
icy for a girl to permit familiari-
ties from men. She takes herself
out Of the inaccessible, fine,
mighty desirable class-that col
lectors are always looking for
and dumps herself into the 'Take
one, please" heap. And we all
know how often we pass the "Take
one please" collection by.
Besides a man always has tre-
mendous respect for q girl who
keeps him m the traces. BE is like
a horse who knows when a green
hand is on the reins and realizes
the time has come to kick up his
heels and have a wild time. But
II the green hand" proves it
knows how to hold him in check,
who 50 docile as-''man or beast"
So my young friend who wrote
that there appeared to be nothing
but "a choice Of spinsterhood or a
series Of 'rushes' that mean moth
ing moro on the part Of the young
man than the quest Of = new girl
and a good time" Is mistaken.
She Is too young, or not sufh-
ciently worldly wise to play the
game-you sec ! am leaving out
all questions Of propriety, mod
esty, and the Victorian virtues
II you happen to be an ultra-mOd-

don't expect to make a good match
out of such hectic capital. You may

time long.
