The Day of Dawning.

The general success of the Repub-
lican ticket at the Tuesday election
reveals the faint gray streaks of a
new day breaking in America Amidst
the dark night of domestic discord
and despond from which the Repub-
lie is emerging, deep shadows have
lain athwart Old Glory's pathway
These shadows have been made pos
sible by the practices at home and
abroad Of the Democratic Admins
tration failing to square it's alluring
promises and professions. Those
shadows have been made possible be-
cause the world it suffering under
the wrong impression of Americans.
When a strong and genuine American
Administration under the Republicans
after 1920 takes firm hold of the
Ship of State. when those Americans
like Lincoln and Roosevelt, who have
always made their good deeds square
with their high words. come into
power, the clouds of doubt and des-
pair now lowering upon our horizon
from every point of the compass will
gradually pass over and disappear.
The nations of the earth will then
again resume their trust in the ideal
leadership Of America as the beacon
light Of liberty and civilization.
For the same reason the working
classes Of America are needlessly
troubled in body and soul. For this
same reason the black millions are
grieved in doubt and despair at their
future. All are suffering under the
temporary delusion that the present
Administration will hold the future
OF the nation. They forget that the
brave heart and conscience of the
nation are not at the helm of the
Ship Of State. When the Republican
party after 1920 steers an even keel
of patriotic progress, firm gotern-
ment alike to black and white, rich
and poor, these doubts and fears and
troubles will pass away. The world
is simply suffering from the wrong
impression Of America. Let not your
heart be troubled. The light is
breaking.

MR.. MERCHANT, DO YOU ADyER-
TISEl

There are merchants who succeed
and where merchants who fail and
back of each success or failure there
is reason. There is kind OF
merchant who never grows, whose
commodity may be excellent, and
there is even reason for his lack OF
growth. We realize that there are
many and varied reasons for the
failure of many businesses TO last
but In this case we have In mind
one specific reason for the failure
of many Negro businesses Of growth
and flourish and become time OF more
than local size and Importance
May we state the peculiar fact that
1t makes no difference how good the
particular commodity Is, II II is not
familiar thing TO the buying pub
lie, II VIII not sell largely? Many
man with a wonderful commodity
10. II It is not familiar thing to the
buying public, II will not sell largely?
Many q man with a wonderful COM
modify is a failure because he fails
for whatever cause II may be to make
the public thoroughly acquainted with
his product While at the same time
another man with an inferior COM
modify makes a bowling success,
builds factory and becomes fac
tor to be reckoned with in the COM
mercial world
The reason back of the lack of sell
ing power of many articles is the
lack OF advertising. The public is
not particular about trying something
about which II has not heard or read
anything. II you stop to analize
your own choice OF, many every day
commodities GU will find that GU have
been influenced to the initial choice
primarily because you have seen the
particular brand which you choose
advertised extensively. One OF the
commonest OF such choices may be
enumerated here. Many of us drink
Coca Cola. Now in the opinion of
the writer while Coca Cola is a re-
freshing drink as far as actual fact
is concerned, II is no better than
others which he has consumed when
dry. The remarkable fact is that the
name Coca Cola naturally falls from
ones lips who has only desire for
a refreshing drink. Why? Because
through a series Of years. those who
manufacture Coca Cola have been
cultivating the thought habits of the
public toward 1t. For at least is
years II has been almost impossible
to pass along the street, ride in a
street car, attend theatre, visit a
movie, ride on a train. attend a
baseball game or in fact go about
ones own business without seeing
from time to time and in fact con-
stantly THE sentence "Drink Coca
Cola 1t has become a habit with
soft dirk consumers and Is as natural
as getting up in the morning.
Now this advertising cost money.
In fact we are told that at one time
In the history OF this very concern
the amount spent for advertising was
far greater than the amount spent
in ell other expenses combined but
the fact had been demonstrated and
is still being demonstrated that il
pass to advertise.
II you hope to make your business
grow and spread you must realize
that It can do so only as sales in
crease and sales can increase only
as more and more OF the buying pub
lie is reached and convinced that
your product is preferable. Madame
