MISTAKES TO AVOID.

Previous articles in this series have
shown how to prepare effective adver-
Using. In this one, we point out the
mistakes most frequently made even
by some who consider themselves good
advertisement writer's.
One of the most common faults in
advertising is the attempt at clever
ness, which often fails to impress the
reader as such and consequently falls
fiat.
If the purpose of the advertisement
is to sell something (and it almost in
variably Isl, then something catchy"
will not accomplish the desired results
as readily as a few well-chosen words
of sensible, forceful sales argument
Flowery language also is very much
out Of place in a good advertisement.
Elaborate figures of speech, large and
unusual words and long, complicated
sentences often serve to confuse the
reader and fill him with disgust. The
really good ad-writer avoids these
faults as he would a plague.
The mistakes mentioned in the fore
going paragraphs are a few of the rea-
sons why most unsuccessful adver-
tisers have formed the conclusion that
advertising doesn't pay.

We do not mean to criticise,
but feel that the people of Oko-
Iona are entitled to information,
and therefore ask for informa-
ton. The Odd Fellows own the
Cemetery, on which no taxes are
paid. The Odd Fellows sell lots
and we are advised get fair
value. based on price of City
lots. This being true, why
should not the Odd Fellows, who
own the property and derive
revenue therefrom, keep up the
premises?
We have a Cemetery Associa-
ton in Okolona, and this associ-
alton annually calls upon the
people interested in the Cemete-
ny to contribute, but it seems that
it would be we'll for the owners
of the property, getting the
revenue from the sale of lots, to
make some showing as to what
is done with the proceeds of lots
sold. XXX

Mr.. Dowd McCarIey

Mr.. DoWd McCarley, Jr., died
at his home here Tuesday night
after an illness Of several
months, from which he sought
relief by going West, but to no
purpose. Almost at the very
beginning of life with a young
family, he was stricken and
gradually grew worse until he
had to give up work and seek
relief. But too late, his fight
was a losing one and he had to
go. He leaves a wife and four
small children, with a host of
other relatives and friends to
mourn his loss. We extend
sympathy to the bereaved.
