Good, Commandant Tells Ad-
vertising Club.

Advertising pays. provided the ad-
vertiser has the goods. according to
Maj. Gen. George Barnett, command
ant Of the Marine Corps. who spoke
last night before the Advertising Club

Maj. Gen. Barnett declared that the

IL was able Ito put things across"
I'VE had a good article" he added.
"and put it on the market We also
proved that we had the goods. The
same thing can be done in the COM
mercial world.
I'VE promised the men in our adver-
tising that they would be the flrst to
hght, and we were. We carried out
every point in our other promises.
The only trouble we had during
the whole war;" said Maj. Gen. Bar
nett, speaking of the marine spirit.
was that all of the men wanted to go
over at once"
The success of the marines' cam
paign for volunteers, he said, was due
entirely to the cooperation on the part
Of newspapers, magazines and other
agencies throughout the country. He
expressed his personal thanks to all
these aiding agencies.
Capt. j. A. Nixon of the Marine
Corps told of the development Of the
machine gun and automatic rife. He
said that the British did more to de-
velop the machine gun than any other
country. He expressed the opinion
that the service rife would be developed
into an automatic rifle.

Buster Finds Some Sugar.

Wandering about restlessly, not dar-
ing to go nearer the little sugar house,
yet unable to leave the neighborhood of
that sirup which smelled so delicious.
Buster Bear spent several hours. Then
he heard the sound of voices. and among
the trees he caught sight of a moving
light. Farmer Brown and Farmer
Browns Boy had stopped working for
the night. had locked up the little sugar
house and were on their way home.
Buster Bear silently followed them at a
safe distance until he saw them leave
the Green Forest. Then he went back
among the sugar naples. Somehow he
felt easier in his mind.
At a safe distance he prowled all
around the little sugar house. He knew
that 1t was full Of delicious sweets, but
he didn't dare try to get in after them.
He hadn't forgotten what had happened
to him the year before when he had
done that very thing. When he grew
tired Of tramping around the little sugar
fouso he wandered OF among the maple
trees, smiling here and there along the
ground as he went. Very unexpectedly
IL wasn't coming from the direction Of
the little sugar house. Buster followed
his nose straight to where it did come
from. There on the ground lay little
piece Of sugar.
Buster gobbled that little piece of
sugar the instant he found it. My. how
good 1t tasted! He began to hunt for
more. and presently he found another
little piece. BY this time Buster had
quite forgotten everything but that de-
lIcious sugar. He found another little
piece. and beyond that another. They
we're hardly more than crumbs to such
big fellow as Buster Bear, and they
simply made him crazy for more Pres
emily he came to the biggest piece he
had yet found. 1t lay at the foot of a
tree right under one Of those shiny tin
pals. Buster looked longingly at the
piece Of sugar and then glared suspi-
ciously at the tin pail. Finally he very
cautiously reached out with one paw
and pulled the piece Of sugar toward him.
Nothing happened. and in a twinkling
that piece Of sugar had followed all the
other pieces down Busters throat.
Then Buster began to hunt for more
sugar. He tramped about this way and

their power to aid the republican
party. which then had entered on a
long period Of control Of Congress and
the government.
The first societies were composed
wholly of men, all of them republic

purpose was to secure public Office
for the people at home, protect their
workers who had found employment
with the government and generally to

Coming Of Civil Service Reform.
The correspondent then tells of the
period when the civil service system
in a reformed condition began to
operate. Then. the societies began to
languish. 1t was no longer necessary
or desirable to ship clerks home to
vote at least once year in order to
keep local politicians in power. The
and were on the point of disintegrat-
ing when the idea occurred to some-
body that the doors should be~open to
democrats as well as to republicans.
This was done. writes Mr.. Brig
ham, "and since the adoption of the
new plan the. societies. have been a
source of mutual pleasure and a
means of acquaintanceship for, the
thousands of men and women whom
they bring together. They have been
almost purely dining clubs, but even
with. that limited function they have
served a very useful purpose in MAIN
tanning state interest and acquaint-
anceship.. Sometimes their, influence
has been employed advantageousIy in
local affairs, like charities and ex-
ercises of one. kind and another rela-
tive to state matters.
1T has been the custom of the In
diana society and probably others to
perform.uttle charitable acts Of their
own in a quiet way"
Mr.. Brigham says that these soci-
eties have done excellent service by
looking after the interests Of war
workers. bringing them together and
making life. under the necessarily
strenuous conditions of the past two
years. more agreeable.

says all the admirably working ma
chinery of the community and civic

schools of the District of Columbia Is
being put at the service of the state
societies existing and yet to be formed
in Washington. Continuing, Mi.
Brigham writes:
"The movement to insure that even
tually all the states will be repre-
sented here with a modern society of
their own has been given a great i'm
pulse of late. until out of forty-eight
states some thirty four are now SO
organized and the assistance and
helpful cooperation of the community
center department bids fair. with the
ambitious plans which are now in the
making. to enroll the fourteen which
still remain outside the fold"
Idea Old One in Washington.
The writer calls attention to the
fact that the state society. is an old
institution in Washington. Charles
Warren Fairbanks was president of

ings Of the Ohio Society.
The societies have undergone i'm
portant changes of plan and organiza-
