The Psychology Of Advertising
and Economical Merchandising.

The ambitious business man always
finds that in order to enlarge his
trade he must find some way OF Civ
ing the people a little better than
average value. II he gives just ordin-
ary value. he is likely to get just or
binary volume of trade.
But II he can double his business
in a certain line. the charge that has
to be made against such articles for
overhead and other expense is less
per article. Therefore he can sell for
less money and make Just as good a
profit.
When n concern advertises regular
ly, It is sign that 1t has pushing
determination to get more trade, rea-
lizing that the bigger business can
be done at less expense per article.
1t is almost invariably the case that
persistent advertiser gets more than
his share Of the trade in his line.
Consequently he can afford to sell
cheaper. and his store is an advan-
tageous one for the public to trade

 The cast in "April Folly" is of the all-star variety. Marion Davies mas the role of April Poole. the heorine, while Conway Tearle plays opposite her. MT. Tearle deserted light opera for the screen and he has been rapidly growing in favor for his sincere char acterizations Madeline Marshall, Spencer Charters are others-who Will be seen in the cast.

THE WOMAN IN ROOM
 THIRTEEN AT LYRIC.
Pauline Frederick in Big Goldwyn Feature With
 Keith Vaudeville

-The Woman in Room Thirteen," the latest Goldwyn picture and starring ve- hicle for Pauline Frederick, is a story of mystery and powerful emotions. The picture gives Pauline Frederick many opportunities to reveal her ability as an emotional actress and may be seen at continuing through Wednesday in con- junction with the vaudeville.
 John Bowers is supporting Miss Fred erick in the part of Paul Ramsey; and his interpretation of the young. poor and ambitious man who discovers his em- ployer endeavoring to compromise his wife affords him an opportunity for some masterly acting of which he takes full advantage.
 The villain of the story is Robert Mo Kim, probably the best known villain on the screen. He plays the part or the cunning employer and does 1t so well that an unconscious sigh of rellef escapes from one's lips when he IS ultl- mately defeated by the hero.
 Another well known actor supporting Miss Frederick is Charles Clary, in the part of John Bruce, the divorced hus- band. whose purpose in life is now to revenge himself on his wife for expos ing his real self. MT. Clary very asyy portrays the character of the deceiuul and dissipated John Bruce.
 Edna Crane interprets the beautiful young society girl whose life has been ruined by Dick Turner (Robert Mckim) and who saves Laura Bruce (Paulne Frederick from the same fate.
