II your merchandise are appreciated at home,
ISIS it reasonable TO suppose that they would
be appreciated in other parts Of the country?
The tastes Of people in different parts Of the
country are not radically different, and merit
is appreciated as much IN one part Of the
country as in another.
If you could live for several hundred years,
perhaps by the end of your life the story Of
your product would be spread from mouth to
mouth, until finally you had distribution
wherever possible for you to sell, but unfor-
tunately, time is limited, and you must seek
other means Of telling people about your
product, if you want your business to expand
during your lifetime. The first requisite of a
big business is for the men at the head Of it to
be able to see a vision of the millions Of pros
peetive buyers, and having seen that vision,
to go out and tell them about their merchan-
disc in the most direct and most economical
manner, which is by advertising.
Your statesmen at best can talk to only few
dealers, and these dealers in turn might talk
to a few people if they had time to do SO, but
you must remember that they have hundreds
and sometimes thousands of articles on their
shelves, and yours is only one Of them. There
fore if you want people to know about your
products, you must talk to them direct
through advertising, and you will find that
merchants everywhere will back you up with
proper cooperation.

The function of an advertising agency is to
tell you how to proceed in making plans to
advertise in. the market which you desire to
reach, and at the least possible cost to get
results This is the real function of an adver-
Using agency, and their constant experience
and study of merchandising and advertising
problems of various kinds puts them i'll posi-
ton to give sound advice along this line.
Other functions of an advertising agency,
which operate after the plans for campaign
have been formed, consist in the selection of
mediums, preparation of advertisements,
buying Of art work, plates, etc., making con-
tracts with the papers, checking insertions to
see that they are correctly made, and paying
for the advertisements In the various publica-
tons. All you have to do is pay one bill to the
agency each month.
Remember that advertising agencies act as
representatives of the publications, and are
paid by the latter In the form of commissions
on the advertising which they prepare The
publishers pay these commissions in order to
make sure that you will receive the kind of
advertising advice and assistance that will
make you a successful and continuous adver-
tiSer
There are nine advertising agencies in the
South which are members of the American
Association of Advertising Agencies. These
agencies are listed below, and any one of them
will be glad to confer with you, if you are
interested in the subject of advertising.

PICTURE SHOW RESUMES
THREE NIGHT SCHEDULE

Manager T. C. Simmons has in
creased the picture show to
three night schedule. Beginning
last Thursday night he has book
ed some high class productions
for Thursday nights, in addition
to the Tuesday and Saturday
night programs.
This move was made at the re-
quest of a number of patrons of
his pictures, who complained that
there was not enough amusement
in the community. If the patron
age warrants the present schedule
will be continued.
Mr.. Simmons is entitled to spec
|ial commendation for the manner
in which he conducts the picture
show. The productions selected
by him are high class in every res
pect, and the very latest releases
are shown. We frequently see pic
lures advertised in Lake Charles,
Jennings, Crowley and other large
places weeks and sometimes
months after they are shown here,
and the prices charged are very
reasonable when compared to
other places.

cate to be used to indentify him

BUSINESS SCIENCE
CHAPTER COMPLETED

The Welsh Business Science
Chapter received it's twelfth and
last lecture in the Sheldon course
last Friday night from Prof. L. /,
SquireS of Lake Charles. Prof
SquireS began the organization of
the chapter last fall. The enroll
ment was greatly effected by the
depression in business which
came on just at that time and the
attendance suffered fro mthe same
cause, but those who completed
the course of twelve lectures are
loud in ther praise of the Sheldon
Science. They have sincere hopes
that later a full chapter may be
organized in Welsh.
Mr.. Squires has organized and
directed a number of successful
chapters in Southwest Louisiana,
the latest being one now in pro-
-gress at De Ridder, which has a
membership exceeding one hum
dred.
The Sheldon Science is, briefly,
the philosophy of successful hui
man activity; man building and
business building. It is study
well worth the consideration of
every individual who has the in
clination for advancement ir
thought or action, and especially
to those who are interested in con-
Structive SaIesmanShip.

ATHLETICS TOOK US
FOR THREE STRAIGHT
They Have Won Six Out of Nine
Games with the Locals

The final game in the three
game series was won by the Lake
Charles Athletics at Lake Charles
Thursday afternoon by 6 to 4
score.
Owing to rain the game was
not called until about five o'clock
and even then the diamond was
muddy.
The new Lake Charles pitcher,
Taylor, proved an easy mark for
the locals. They hit him for seven
singles and two doubles. They
failed to bunch the hits, however,
and only scored four rams from
the total of nine SafetieS.
The Athletics hit Olevia for five
singles and double, netting six
runs

LAKE ARTHUR
NOTHING NOTHING CAME

The game at Lake Arthur last
Sunday was too tight to be inter-
eSting to write about. 1t was 0 to 0
at the close of nine innings and
managers of both teams acqui-
eSced in the idea of calling the
game on account of darkness.
"Game called OH account of dark
ness" is a technical term used in
base ball circles and ti1c sun may
yet be an hour high.
AS shown by the box score
there were few errors and moi
much hitting. Brown pitched five
innings and Ryan four, each al
lowing one safe hit. Vines, the
youthful 'Southpaw'' who twirled
for Lake Arthur, executed himself
in true big league" style.
We have to hand it to Lake Ar
thur fans for being fully posted
on the rules of base ball. There
were 101 of them present at the
game; 100 of them being specta-
tors and an umpire. In the fam
Gus seventh inning, which always
follows the sixth, decision be-
came necessary. Here's the fun
ny part. The 100 were unanimous
as to the rules, while | (the UNI
pire) didn't know. Peculiar they
should have chosen the one .un-
posted fan when there were a
hundred competent ones present

CROPS BENEFITED
BY RECENT RAINS,

The rains of the past week have
greatly benefited all crops
through h out this section, proving
a great boom to the rice farmers
especially in that a great amount
OF pumping has been saved. Not
alone is the saving in the expense
OF pumping, for the flood of fresh
rain water has stopped the work
OF worms which were making
heavy inroads on many fields Of
rice.
Although the acreage of rice
will be small, prospects now are
for a very good crop, and the
cheapest crop that has been grown
during the past ten years.
A very noticeable thing this year
is the many fine fields of corn
sweet potatoes, and the truck
patches, which are turning out
immense yields of choice vegetab-
les. An abundance of the very best
tomatoes ever grown are pouring
into the local market, tomatoes
that excel the product of the fam
GUS truck growing sections of
Mississippi and Florida, and if
conditions continue favorable can
taloupeS and watermelonS will be
as plentiful within few days.
1t takes pluck of turn defeat to
advantage but it appears now that
the farmers of Jefferson Davis
parish have all the requisites for
success under any turn.

Tuesdays Game

Welsh lost to the Athletics by
a 6 to 2 score Tuesday, it being
the first of the three. game series.
The Reynolds men got a slant on
Ryan'S delivery in the first inning
and before the end of the second
they had the game on ice. Brown
Ryan before the close of
the second inning, holding the adj
verSarieS down until the seventh
when he gave up three hits which
resulted in two scores.
Welsh got three hits off BrouS-
Sard in the sixth which resulted
in two score-the only two for
the day. They played a good game
in spite of the score, getting a
total of seven hits off Broussard
and suffering but one error.

Wednesdays Game
Comedy of Errors. "

In spite of a deluge of errors
by the locals in Wednesdays
game on the local diamond Lake
Charles only got away with an
s to 5 victory. After having pitch
ed five innings Sunday and seven
Tuesday, Brown started the game
Ioff by walking the first two men
up. That seemed to have a de-
moralizing effect on the locals and
things went from bad to worse
until the two scores were regis
tered. Then followed five blanks
in the Lake Charles column.
In the fifth inning Welsh made
a single error and it looked like
there was a chance until the sew
enth, when Strain hit a homer
with two on bases. Then again
in the eight the pill played hide
|and-seek while two more visiting
scores came in.
In the eighth Welsh managed
to squeeze in three more runs and
in the ninth each made one.
1t was a shame, but nothing in
comparison to the goose egg
which Welsh handed the Athle-
tics on their last previous visit
here.
