 ADVERTISING

People with goods to sell are more discriminating In the way they spend money for advertising than they used to be. A great deal of money has been spent in the past for advertising on the sides of barns, signs erected along highways and railroads, mile age posts, etc. But it does not con- form to the principles of scientific advertising.
 Advertising accomplishes results in two ways: First, by giving reasons for buying an article that will appeal to a mans Judgment and common sense. Second, by conveying a gen. eral impression that a dealer is wide awake and enterprising and doing a big business
 It is manifest that wayside adver- Using can not make good on the first basis. People pass a roadside sign too quickly to examine it and reflect over any argument it may present Particularly in these days when the travelling public hurry past in auto mobiles at 20 miles an hour, a sign board makes only the most fleeting impression, and it makes no appeal by argument or reason.
 The only thing that could possibly be claimed, is that it keeps a firms name before the public. But as signs exposed to the weather quickly de teriorate and look unsightly, that ad- vantage is lost unless the signs are carefully kept repainted or repapered, which costs lot of money now. Also to give that impression, the wording and ideas of a sign origin constantly to be changed. When man erects a sign and lets it stand there without change for month after month, it ceases to make an impression. But to keep changing it so as to convey new ideas would be very expensive.
 Newspaper advertising meets all these objections. It gives a man all the space necessary to address a per sons intelligence. And it can be changed whenever necessary to give the impression of enterprise and wide awake spirit.

DIR. DAY ON CHURCH UNITY"

At the morning service at the United church, the hour of which has been changed from Il o'clock to 10.3O, Dr. William Horace Day will preach on Church Unity" a study of the Masters prayer for the unity of his disciples. At the close of the ser vice the Every Member Canvass com mittee of the church will have its final meeting. An informal report of plans for the new United church will be discussed. The Sunday school will also change the hour of its ser vice from 10 o'clock to 12.
 Unite or die was the alternative presented American Colonial section aism in 1776. Many thoughtful Americans believe the modern church must unite or die. Sectarianism has been weighed in the balances and found terribly wanting. All the American churches are nearer to- gether than they ever were before, but by no stretch of the imagination cah our Christianity be said to have unity. Are modern Christians forced to believe that Christ's prayer for a united church is impossible of reali- zaton and that a league of churches is nothing more than an iridescent dream, about as certain of realization as the finding of the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow? Last month Dr. Day was one of the 12 represen- tatives of the Congregational Church at the conference on organic unity held in Witherspoon hall, Philadel- phia, in which every large Protes- tant denomination, except the South ern Baptists, was represented.
 Seven prominent Bridgeporters are to give a symposium at the Sunday evening community forum at 7.30 The speakers will be Clifford B. Will son, Mir Walter B. Lashar of the city plan commission, MT. Samuel J Slawson, superintendent of schools MT. B. D. Pierce. Jr., president O the chamber of commerce, Mir Charles Sanford of the First Bridge port National bank, MT.

Tyranny or Chaos"
UP IN THE WILD.

Up in the wild where no one comes
 to look There lives and sings a, little lonely
 brook; Liveth and singeth in the droary
 pines, Yet creepeth on to where the day
 light shines ** I catch the murmer of it's undertone, That sigheth ceaselessly, alone, alone! And hear afar the rivers gloriously Shout on their paths toward the shin
 ing sea The voicefuI rivers, chanting to the
 sun, And wearing names of honor, every
 one; Outreaching wide, and joining hand
 in hand To pour great gifts along the asking
 land. An! lonely brook, creep onward
 through the pines; Press through the gloom to where
 the daylight shines! Sing on among the stones and
 secretly Feel how the floods are all akin to
 thee! A. D. T. Whitney.

LUCRETIA MOTT

Lucretia Mott Is revered by the
 present generation of advocates for women's rights as one of the greatest figures in the movement, holding rank with Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony. She was born in Nantucket, Mass, in 1793 and early manifested her sympathies, for the droWntrodden. She became the wife of James Mott. a Philadelphia
 merchant and philanthropist, and joined him in launching the Ameri- can Anti Slavery Society at Philadel- phia in 1893. She entered the min istry of the Society of Friends in 1913, and earnestly defended the right of women to speak in public and to take an active part in public af- fairs. She was one of the delegates 1 to the first women's rights conven-

DOWN WITH DEMOCRACY!
 DOWN WITH AUTHORITY!
 -Lenine.

the District Soviet promptly de- spatches Red Guard contingent which holds a new election under aus plces that ensure orthodox Bolsheviks being elected in place of their op ponents.
 A few idealists in this country al lege that the Bolsheviki represent the majority of the Russian people, and bitterly denounce those who dA- clare the truth to be the reverse. Even the Bolsheviki, however, ad- init that the peasants in Russia con stitute at least seventy per cent. of the population and the present con stitution of the tBolshevist govern ment sufficiently attests the fact that the views of the mass of the peas ants are far removed from the views of the Bolsheviki For this present constitution of the Bolshevih (the fourth constitution that they have adopted) provides that whereas the city protetarians shall have one rep resentative in the Central Soviet at Moscow for every twenty-five thous- and proletarians participating in the vote, the peasants may have but one representative for every one hundred and twenty y-five thousand peasants voting! The Bolsheviki see so plain ly that they would be at once over thrown If they gave equal suffrage to the peasants, that they allow the peasants only one-f1fth as much per capita representation as they retain for themselves!
 Prussianism.
 Thus, In practice as well as in the ory, the Soviet government repudiates democracy, preferr1ng the Prussian system of voting whereby the most favored classes are given shares in the government vastly disproportion- ate to their numbers. In Prussia the wealthier and middle classes have many times the per capita voting power allowed to the manual work CTS. Under the Bolsheviki, on the other hand, the propertyless prole- tartan has five times the voting power of the landless peasant, and the property owning classes have no votes at all.
 With logic and truth Lenine is able to boast in the address from which I have quoted, (and which is being widely circulated by the Bolshevik. in New York city) that 'the word democracy cannot be scientifically ap- piled to the Communist Party! The word democracy" he writes, Ifs simply shackle upon the revolu- tionary nation to prevent 1t estab- fishing Council of WorEmen's, Soldiers and Peasants Deputies,- hamburger of the abolition of every form Of authority
 And yet there are those among us who urge recognition of the Soviet Republic"!
 Tyranny or Chaos"
 In a world peopled exclusively by angels, social life would perhaps be possible without either democracy or authority But in a world inhabited as this world of ours is today by so many who take no interest in justice or fairplay of any kind, seehing their own interests and their own interests alone, Lenine's demands for the abol- ition of democracy, as well as of all authority, even If completely realized, could result in nothing better than the triumph of might over right, and either universal tyranny or chaos.
