Kids MAY Coast

The supreme court of this state
has ruled that kids have as much
right to coast on public highways ana
that vehicles of any sort that get In
the kids way and cause damage
take the consequences. The case
came up from Pottawatamie county.
Margaret Roennan and a party OF
friends were coastfng on the high
way. A man named Wilson came
along in his carriage and bumped
into the coasting party. Miss Roen-
nan was injured and upon suit re-
covered damages in the sum or $z,-
2SG.O0. Wilson's argument was
the coasting party had no right on
the public highway. The supreme
court held coasting is neither an IL
legal act or a nuisance; public high
ways are as much for pleasure as for
business. Thus, kiddies, you are
privileged to coast where you please.

RUSS PRISONERS
 RETURNING HOME

Paris, July s-The last prisoners of war in French hands being remnants of the Russian expeditionary force that landed at Marseilles, acclaimed by enthusiastic throngs in 1917, are being expatriated as fast as the slow progress of negotiations with the Bo1- sheviki will allow.
 About 5000 of them remained in termed after all other prisoners, in- cluding the Germans, had been sent home. Coming as allies and par ticipating in some of the fierce fight ing along the Aisne, the Russians were deeply impressed by the revolu- ton in their country; discipline suf- fered until finally revolt and nnutiny broke out in the ranks, requiring g severe measures.
 The contingent never again partici- pated in military operations. The men were used for a time in road repairing but the results were unsar- isfactory. They are being exchanged for French soldiers taken by the So- viet forces on the Archange1 front.

ADVERTISING OF
 MODERN TIMES
 IS INFORMATIVE

Never before in the history of business was advertising so informa- tive now. Originally advertise ments were routine kind of notices, reminded the public of his ex- ises about his goods.
 Then for time there was a ten dency to write advertisements that tried to be funny and smart, and attract attention by their cleverness, without giving much information about goods.
 The modern ad writer has come
 down to brass tacks. He tries to
 tell people in a straightforward way
 what he has to sell. He describes
 his line of goods, his styles, and
 particularly his prices. As a result
 the buyer can get a very intelligent
 idea of the state of the market be-
 fore he enters any store or looks at
 any goods.
 This is the way any skilled buyer goes to work. The purchasing
 agent of a business concern would not attempt to make any contracts until he had looked over his trade papers and found out what were the tendencies in the market, what styles were favored, and what prices were being offered. Armed with a careful study of market conditions, he is ready to do business, and can make better trades than the man who took | no pains to inform himself. The newspaper advertising offers to the household and personal buyer, the same service that the trade paper and the market report provide to the corporation purchasing agent. After a study of newspaper advertising, the buyer for the home gains a better idea what should be paid for any ar tic1e.
 The careful student of home store advertising should be able to buy 10 to 20 per cent. cheaper than the person who pays attention to the store news.

PLAZA,

Every patron who visited the Plaza theatre yesterday seemed to be more than pleased with the array of talent presented. The feature picture by Olive Thomas in 'tThe Flapper'' was more than charming. It was thor ough1y enjoyed by all and ranks among the best things the screen has given up this year. It treats amusinglgf and entertainingly with the adven- lures of a sub-deb, who, in her desire to appear grown-up and sophisticated, becomes involved in the activities of a couple of burglars. Many amusing incidents occur, with the scene shift ing rapidly from sunny Florida to the snowy North and the night life of New York. Many wonderfully pie turesque settings have been provided for this picture which was written by Frances Marion.
 The vaudeville bill was we'll ap- plauded throughout and there was not dull moment. Tom Browns County Officials presented a novelty musical act that was immense and the audience roundly showed their ap- preciation of the talented company. Kelly and Brown, man with an un-
 usually fine tenor voice, and a girl with the nimb1est pair of feet that have graced the stage went off to a big hit. Their act is clean in it's presentation and quite high class | throughout. Vallie Rand with a mum l Der of well sung numbers took honors Salbin and Grovini in an all around | novelty drew big applause. Interna- l tional News, Pathe Topics of the Day | and a. comedy completed a very good | show.
