THE EFFICIENCY OF ADVERTISING

Any trade methods that merchants
have found helpful over long period
OF years is pretty apt to be based on
sound economie law. Therefore the
people who clain1 that advertising adds
to the cost of goods have got to ex-
plain away the fact that for genera
lions the fmost tenterprising business
men have constantly used advertising.
|! THE! writer was recently looking ov-
er the files Of a newspaper that has
been published a full century: Way,
back before the civil war that paper
was publishing. a lot Of advertising.
Almost any Of the old papers would
make similar showing. x 49,. w.,
The people that feel that advertis-
ing is, valueless are attacking one Of
the foundation principles of business
success. 1T will be interesting in TINS
little series of discussions to consider
what trade conditions would .tbe in a
community, and how,
the introduction of advertising spirit
affected sales, prices and service.

unusual opportunity that now exists

fidence and with the definiteness of a
man who knows. ~
The call for farm help is becoming
acute. From eastern Ohio to the west
coast there are at present at least a
million opportunities for useful and
profitable employment-and in. most
cases it is employment with a future.

Petitions Not Effective -.

Petitions Not Effective -.
The right of petition is provided in
the constitution, but no provision is
made guaranteeing the effectiveness of
such a procedure Printed forms were
sent out from Des Moines to every
farm organization in the state protest
ing against the passage of bill pro-
viding for paved highways. 1t was a
drive at the road bill formulated by
the joint highway committees of the
two houses. The provisions of the bill
were perverted but this cut no figure.
These petitions formulated by inter
ested parties here in Des Moines were
numerously signed and hundreds of
them were placed on file in the two
houses. Such petitions are never read,
only reference to their contents being
made matter of record. Petitions
have no effect upon the average legis-
lator. He knows how easy it is to OBJ
tain signatures. Four years ago 49,
600 Iowa people petitioned the legisla-
ture to change the two cent passenger
fare to two and oneshalf cents. These
petitions we're drawn by railway attOr-
neys. Either paid emissary or a
wild eyed enthusiast can obtain names
upon any kind of petition.
Presidens Taft Delivers Address
Former President Taft addressed a
Joint session Of the legislature upon

visitor was to speak. ~

Money for State Parks

An appropriation of 100000 was
made for the state board of conserva.
ton for the purchasing of state parks.
One such beauty spot has already
been secured, known as the Devils
Backbone in Delaware county. Money
for this purpose was originally taken
from the department of fish and game,
a part of the license fees paid to that
department. Senator Rule attacked
the expenditure of the fish and game
department declaring that the report
of the department showed that $73, 900
had been expended for deputies and in
addition more than $4,000 in travel

RACE RIOTS

The race riots and other disturb
ances that are occurring ever and
anon throughout the country should
not cause hysterical alarm, but should
be warnings to members Of the race
TO prepare themselves by education
and industrial training for the inev-
table clash between the races that
will take place within the next few
years unless the dominant race
changes it's attitude towards the Ne
gro and treat him as a man.
The Negro is ascending and no
power on earth, save himself, can
keep him down. With an abiding
trust in God and faith in ourselves
let us strike cut for all the rights,
privileges and opportunities that men
are entitled to. Education is the rod
that will break tine head Of the AFRO
CANT South.
1--WE are troubled on every side, yet
not distressed; we are perpiexed but
not in despair; prosecuted but not for
saken: cast down bat not destroyed.

KILL THE DRAGON!

Apostles OF direct action be-
smirched the fair name Of the good
state OF Nebraska Sunday, defiled and
debauched moral and written law, and
brought shame to the cheek OF every
lover of liberty. Not content with
numbering, for it was murder, the al
legged assailant of woman, the raw
ening mob attempted, and all too
nearly accomplished, the murder of
the Mayor of Omaha, gallant Anler-
lean, who risked his life for the pres
ervation Of law and order. Red-eyed,
fleck -tongued, the hungry mob pur-
sued it's mafaiacal course and destroy
ed the courthouse, leaving wake of
ruin and death.
"Direct action" disciples wear many
disguises. At heart they are all an
archists and whether they call them
selves Bolshevists, Syndicalists or
what not, they are all inhued with
the one idea Of making ours Govern
ment of men and not of laws. 0he-
dience, discipline and restraint are
foreign and repugnant to their
thoughts and law of any kind is OBJ
noxious because it compels such
things. The outbreak at Omaha when
traced to its source will be found to
have emanated from the tents OF an
archy. The horror in the Nebraska
metropolis is merely a symptomatic
outburst revealing the extent Of the
growth of vicious nti-American, anti
law propaganda that ID being spread
like virus over the whole nation.
III the great state of Nebraska
doesn't execute the leaders OF tiiis
mob we hope the Attorney General Of
he United States takes up the case,
and, bringing to his command the en-
tire power of the United States De-
partment of Justice, hounds the prin-
eipals until they are cornered, con-
victed and executed. The Omaha mob
was not so hungry for the assailant Of
the woman as it was TO flout law and
order, and to show its supreme scorn
for both. Vomiting fire, blood and
death, the dragon that exhibited itself
at Omaha Sunday will become the
scourage of the nation unless de-
stroyed.

ZION BAPTIST CHURCH


DR.. J., j. Jackson Of Bellefontaine,
brought to US last Sunday Two i,les-
sages enriched by life az experience
spent mostly in the Masters service.
Our prayers are for yet greater power
and long usefulness In the spreading
OF the Gospel for Him.
zion's congregation resumed some
thing like its normal proportions last
Sunday in numbers rs well as in Of
ferings and in interest shown. There
in still hope that we shall come to a
fuller understanding Of what our
Christian duties are, and of what
glorious peace comes to US from un-
selfish services, and shall use to OPP
portunities that Gods grace affords.
Our pastor, Rev. r. J.. Smith, will
be with us Sunday. We make no
forecast Of what is to be expected Of
him. Come and hear for yourself.
Our prayer meetings are made Up
mostly of the same faithful members.
Knowing that there is power in pray
or. We wish to see larger attend
ance and interest taken m the We'd
nesday night prayer meetings on the
part Of both the old and young Of
Zion.
And Sunday is October 5th. Every
body comes to Sunday school. Here
!. is your chance to show young Zion
that you are with her. Here is your
chance to come out and line up with
the working auxiliary OF the church.
The regulars will be there as usual
of course, but the call Is to the alb
sentee and to the outsider that yo,i
come back from Indifference, back
from neglect, back from Incidence,
back from vacation, back TO service.
And above all, let us come on time
and get the full measure of The hour.
The most notable growth and en-
thusiasm Of our whole school dur
ing September was in the Mems BIZ
bic class. Why? And at that the
average attendance for September
was two hundred and three. Our
goal is sixty-four new enrollments
and average attendance of three hun
dred and we have six weeks in which
to reach it. What are you going to
do about it?

MOTHER

Mother and Love! the two sweetest
words in the English language, and
they are inseparable. Who can faith
3a ii mothers love. We are thinking
today Of mother. A mother who was
born in the dark days of slavery.
Whose early girlhood was blighted by
that curse, yet the hardships and OBJ
stacles Of those cruel days could not
lestroy her soul nor the spirit for adj
gancement, and she struggled on.
Left, IN early womanhood, a widow
with three children, she decided TO
sacrifice her life to rear and edu-
cate these children. She did what she
could, her utmost to accomplish her
5bject. All honor and praise, and
glory and peace to this mother who
passed away one year ago today. We
shall not forget thy teachings. May

The following editorial from the

other things the clothes Of his baby.
In attacking the mayor at Omaha the
first act Of the mob was to steal the

object Of the mob at Elaine, Ark,
