PA 49,. e.,
ssdakOME Of the highest-paid
So men and women In
America ire employed
in the writing of advertise
ments. The reason is that the
work requires rare skill and
knowledge, tact and salesman
ship.
The usual advertisement
reaches millions of people and
q great deal depends on the
interest and impression it Gre
ates.
Advertisers generally figure
cost and result very closely.
The results of store advertis-
ing show Immediately in sales
of the items offered. Mail or
der advertising is easily traced
Many individual ads are traced
by a coupon, showing how
one ed compares with another
in bringing inquiries for sam
pies, etc.
4 al advertising, to be con-
: t,tinued, must justify itself by
lpl results.
Most national advertisers
test their ads in small COM
munities before using them in
a large and costly way. They
learn how the thousands re-
spond before approaching the
millions.
Ads which fail to impress
people in a large way + dis
carded.
Most advertisements, there
fore, contain facts of proved
interest to many people. Every
large newspaper, every day
prints many advertisements
which would interest you.
If you fail to read them you
are losing money OF missing
facts yoa should know.
Statements made in adver-
tisements + usually depend
able. Reliable advertisers
never misreprescnt or exag-
gerate.
That would be fatal to sue
cess. Most large newspapers
carefully guard their adver.
Using columns. All advertise
ments are censored. Anything
apparently untrue or mislead-
ing, anything unfair or OPP
posed to public interest will
cause an sd to be rejected.
The Associated Advertising
Clubs of the World also main
tain, at great expense, a vigil
lance committee. This is sup
ported by the advertisers and
Hhe publishers to maintain and
4 oster public confidence in ad-
Z ertising. This committee is
constantly occupied in watch
ing for and Investigating I'M
true statements in advertise
: ments. Complaints made by
competitors are sifted to the
bottom. Questioned state
ments must be proved, else al
tered or omitted. If not, hun
dreds of newspapers will re-
fuse the advertising.
In fragrant cases legal ac-
ton is taken against the ad-
vertiser.
Thus advertisements are in
m resting, important and true.
hey could not otherwise be
rcftable.
1t will pay you well to sean
pwem daily and to read the
cts about things you buy or
vt you might need or enjoy.

Rcrivai of Business

Business is moving quickly, cspc-
cially in Moscow. One enterprise after
another is roviving in the form of CO.
operative assoc atoms. For example,
the old Philipof business is rising
again-big bakeries, cafes and bakers
shops all over the town. The peasants
have improved their condition; they
are building; they eat better, and they
arc incrca rg their livestock. Their
demand for manufactured goods is
growing. and for that reason they will
have to produce more themselves. All
sorts of people have gone into the
country from the towns former hall
portcrs, artisans, domestic servants
and factory workcrs-and they have
brought new interests and demands
into the village. The old patriarchal
muzhik is becoming modern is-@ser
Manners nave grown coarse and
rosgh; it is hard time for the intel
ligentsia. The young people arc par
ticulariy unplcs SAINT; many OF them are
like fierce wolves. 1t is not easy TO en-
dure the change from being rstioned
by the state to being compelled to get
ones own food in the markets. Many
government institutions arc being
closed down, and consequently there Is
wide unem pl oymcnt, which creates j

Still Another Treaty

Cancellation is abroad. The United
States, Great Britain, France and
Japan have agreed to keep the
peace in the Pacific. Ireland and
England are stretching hands across
the Irish Sea. Bainbridge Colby
spoke pleasantly to George Harvey
at q, dinner in London Wednesday
night. And the football teams of
Harvard and Dartmouth have
agreed to meet on the grid.ron
again some time next fall.
This is the first time the teams
will have met since 1912, when a
disagreement grew into feud. For
the last ten years the Dartmouth
freshman has been taught to hate
Harvard at the knee of the upper
class man assigned to care for his
campus education. Harvard pen
nants served as mats ia Dartmouth
dormitories, so that the youth Of
the college could wipe their feet on
them. So remote was the date of
the feud that no one is quite clear
what it was all about. But it was
none the less bitter.
Now, however, all seems to be for
given. A truce has been arranged
and peace signed. The teams VIII
meet and play, though the term Of
the armistice is but for one year.
However, it can be extended, and
all lovers of good, exciting sport as
it is practiced in New England will
hope that Harvard Dartmouth
game will be feature of each sue
I ceeding football season henceforth
and forever.

A Successful Rehearsal

The Department of Streets turned
out seven thousand men very
promptly and got rid of moderate
snowfall. They were assisted. it is
true, by a rising temperature, but
withal they did the job extremely
well.
1t was q good rehearsal for the
bigger work that is to come. In
other years heavy SHOWS have cost
the city millions of dollars in inl-
pedcd traffic and nearly as much in
disposing Of them. That. we begin
to hope. will be avoided this winter.
New snow-removal machinery has
been provided. The unemployment
situation makes it easier to secure
the men needed for manning the
snow shovels.
If the first real snowfall is han
died with the same energy as this
first snowfall was. a great deal of
money and annoyance and inter
ference with business will be saved
A good start was made Wednesday
night Let us hope that the real
performance will be up to the prom
ise of the rehearsal.

Egypt in Fernent

The expulsion of Said Zagoul Pasha
from Cairo and the disturbances
incident to it have been followed by
the dispatch of British war vessels
from Malta to Egypt. Egypt is full
of unrest, and the British occupation
is being more and more undermined
by the spread of nationalism. The
failure of the recent negotiations in
London with the ABLY Pasha de'e-
cation has added materially to ma
tive resentment.
Great Britain is willing to ter
inmate the proteetorate proclaimed
III 1914 and to recognize Egypt as 2
sovereign state, under constitu-
tional monarchy But because of
the obligations which she has under
taken in Egypt, especially u for
cign countries, she asked, in the
draft of treaty of alliance which
she offered to ABLY Pasha, for tho
retention in Cairo of High Com
missioner, taking precedence over all
other foreign representatives and
entitled to be consulted as to any
political agreements with other pow
ers. The British government alsc
demanded the right to maintain gar
risons in Egypt and to acquire and
utilize for that purpose any military
bases which might be desirable
! Egypt was to grant free passage
everywhere within her territory te
British forces.
These conditions proved stumbling
blocks. The Egyptian delegation
was wing to allow cantonnlents ir
the region of the Suez Canal to pro-
tect communications with india. But
it rejected the extension OF British
military activities and supervision
elsewhere as constituting "occupa
tion pure and simple Objection
was also made to the acceptance Of
a High Commissioner, with large
control over foreign affairs, as I
plain a5ridgment of sovereignty.

Il is whoil,- devoid of l,croisn.
The consequences OF his course
viii be visited upon the taxpayers
rather than upon Mr.. Hylan. Tie
cnly risk is that of involving the
Frances of the city in hopeless
tangIe. merely because Mr.. Hylan is
contcnlptuous Of the letter of the
law.
TN The conducs of public buciness
It is absolutely necessary for Off
Gals to proceed in the manner pre-
acribcd by the statutes. Mr.. Hylan
may net approve of these statutes.
He may think that they unduly
hamper him in conducting his Office.
But that does not remove his obliga-
tion to abide by them.
AS in the case Of every other mu-
nicipal. state or Federal official,
there are definite statutory limits to
his power. IF he exceeds these
limits he invites, even compels, court
intervention. In this particular in
stance court intervention. With its
inevitable delays, may inyalidate the
whole budget and perhaps in1peril
tho credit Of the city.
Mr.. Hylan is not business man
but he is at the head of one of tho
biggest businesses in the United
States. No matter how intolerant
he may be of business methods, he
will be obliged to follow them. The
only alternative is to bring disaster
tc the city's finances.

Two More Worlds Fairs

1t Is q long time, in this swiftly
moving age. since there has been a
worlds fair in this country; or,
Tor that matter, in any other. Our
latest was the Panama-Pacific EX
position, in the Far West. In the.
East We have had none since that at
Buffalo, twenty years ago. Since
those gatherings mighty events
rave occurred. The world has ben
wellalgh transformed. In such
circumstances it would not seem in
opportune to organize for the near
future another worlds fair, or even
The two which now sre projected for
successive years.
The TACT that the world is still
suffering from the results of its
most dest :. .t::vn war is no argument
against The enterprise. Indeed, q
we'll organized and managed worlds
lais probably would aid the work Of
fenabilItatlon. 1t certainly should
