TO SELL a BOOK.

1t may be gathered that some Of
the same kind of energy and ingenuity
that is put into the drawing of the
public into the movies is TO be en-
ployed in selling them books. If q
moving picture show installed itself In
a quiet location without elet ,ric lights,
with no red and yellow posters and
no prominently displayed reading mo-
ices In the papers. few would discover
that the show was there. Why may
not book merchant borrow somewhat
of the movies excitement-yea, or
even more? How many copies of a
popular novel might not be sold with
a brass band outside? A new book
selling corporation isn't going that
far; but 1t is going farther than has
ever been the custom. Custom has
too long chained the book trade. Now
there are to be chain book stores.
The projectors of the new plan say
in their prospectus, I'VE believe the
American people love books / -ster
than tobacco" 1t will never be known
exactly how much the American peo-
PIE love books until books are put be-
fore them by the same methods that
their other recreation is put before
them-that is, by attracting their at
tention, says the st. Louis Globe Demo
erat. If they will pay as high as s.
for three hours entertainment at the
theater, will they not pay as much
for three hours entertainment in
book-if the book is advertised like
the theater?

Formal commemoration of such his
toric events as the adoption of the
Constitution of the United States is
not bad thing ii 1t be kept simple
and sincere. The temptation Is to
strain TO say something new or star
Ting But as regards the Constitu-
ton, the plain and well-known facts
suffice. They are all that sensible
Americans need dwell upon for their
own satisfaction, or in their efforts to
help newcomers in our country to UNI
derstand The place and meaning Of the
Constitution. 1t alone made the Amer
lean Union possible. 1t alone makes
the American people secure in their
individual rights as citizens when
these are imperiled by passing gusts
of sentiment, says the New York
Times. If 1t is true, as there is much
evidence to prove. that Americans are
showing themselves the most conserva-
tive nation in a turbulent world, the
largest cause of it lies in our federal
Constitution.

Ban Johnson, president of the Am

statement of the manufacturers that
it was the result of the use of a bet

sphere more resiliency, rather than
an Intentional desire to make It go
