DAILY PAPER HELD
 BEST AD MEDIUM
Newspaper Ideal Vehicle for Retail Store Advertising,
 Declares Black
By Associated Press

Indianapolis June S.--The daily newspa- per was extolled as the best advertis- ing medium n a number of the depart mental meetings of the convention of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World here late today. In the retailers and church advertising departments was this true, while in other sections the poster, direct mail and films were ad- vocated as the best media for other types of advertising.
 Frank A. Black of Boston, told the retailers that the newspapers provided the ideal vehicle for up-to-date store advertising, because of it's form, elast- city. frequency and cost. The Rev. Hor- ace Westwcod of Toledo declared that a broad type of advertising appeal, carried in daily newspapers and dealing with the service the church is rendering, will bring better results in the long run for the church than advertising designed for the immediate object of gathering a crowd.
 The woman's department held it's first business session this afternoon, featured by discussion as to whether advertis- ing women do better advertising club work when they have their own club or when affiliated with the mems club.

 Woollcott says 'The hour of the first rehearsals approached and there was no Lincoln. Then one morning Lester Lonnergan, director of the production. brought in to MT. Drinkwater at the Hudson theatre a tall, gaunt, deep voiced man and introduced him as his nominee. It was McGlynn.

SLOSS-SHEFF|ELD'S
 GREAT ECONOMIES
Electrifieation Expected to Pay For Itself Within
 Four Years

Incoming of the by-product plant of
 the Sloss Sheffield Steel and Iron Com pany and the identification of it's
 mines. furnaces and quarries following
 the generation of electric energy through this plant are expected to cre-
 ate economies that will eventually
 count we'll for earnings.
 Speaking of these improvements, the Wall Street Journal says:
 Economies resulting from the em- ployment of hy-product in place of the old beehive ovens should be reflected fully in earnings for the second half of the year. 1t is estimated that the saving effected is nearly $2 ton of coke produced which with full produc- ton would be equal to nearly $10 a share on the comnon stock of the com pany.
 Earnings for the first half will probably be sufficient to cover divi- dends for the entire year so that, with the expected larger profits in the sec ond half. Sloss should earn it's divi- dend considerably more than twice. In fact. it would not be surprising if final figures exceeded those of 1919. the record year, when Sloss showed $16.25 a share on the. common stock, "Sloss- Sheffield nov has five of it's six blast furnaces in operation and is taking all the business it cares to handle at basis of SAP a ton.

"1RED feet are Nature's' danger
 signal. They indicate that you are
 Il putting an unnatural strain on the 'delicately adjusted arches, which were de- signed to support your weight and absorb the jars of walking.
 ! Nature never intended man to walk all day on hard modern floors and pave- ments. On the soft dirt paths of a genera tion ago, the natural arch in the human foot could function perfectly. But today, when floors, streets and sidewalks are hard and unyielding, Natures provision is insufficient.
 / These conditions are serious menace to health and efficiency. The records of the Hospital for Crippled in New York show that in the year 1890 (before the wide adoption of stony streets) only 2.6 per cent of the patients suffered from arch trouble. In 1906, the percentage had risen i to 18.3 per cent, and today it is well over ' 30 per cent.

dissatisfaction among tobacco growers

Tobacco which brought from $50 to

enforcement OF TRAFFIC
Law BRINGS RESULTS
Automobile Owners and Drivers Being
Warned of Their Breaking City
Traffic Ordinance.

The strict enforcement of the traffic
ordinance of the city and the state law
governing automobile traffic by the
local police department and the edu-
cation of drivers in the laws is bring
ing about results in the city of Mays
vile.
Since the latter part of last week,
the members of the police department
have been giving much of their time to
informing auto drivers wherein they
are braking the laws. This is me by
placing on the machine tag showing
which section of the city ordinance the
driver has violated and in furnishing
him with copy Of the city law so that
there will be no excuse for further
violation of the bill.
From the number of tags that the
police have affixed to cars during the
past few. days, 1t appears that most
every automobile owner and driver
in the city has been informed Of the
details of the law they most need to
know. No person will be warned of
the same violation twice and arrests
will follow. The number of arrests ex-
pected have been geratly reduced by
police giving every one an opportunity
to become familiar with the law Ar
rests are expected this week unless
everyone takes the timely hint given
them by the police department. After
being fairly warned, no one can COM
plain If they are arrested CIR viola
