MASS MEETING
For Recognition of the
Irish Republic

Hon. Herbert e. Holmes of Lewiston
and Rev. r. J. Mooney of Auburn
Speakers at WeII-Attended Session
Held Under Auspices of Local
Chapter for Recognition Irish Re-
public
A goodly representation of Augusta
people interested in the recognition of
the republic of Ireland by the govern
ment of the United States attended a
mass meeting at Golden Cross hall
Sunday evening under the auspices of
the st. Patrick chapter of the Ameri-
can Association for the Recognition
of the Republic of Ireland. The meet
ing was presided over by Patrick Fitz-
gerald, president of the local chapter
The first speaker was Hon. Herbert
T.. Holmes of Lewiston. who in his
opening asked the question, why it is
that there is prejudice existing
against the Irish race among the
American people. His reply charged
that so-called Anglo-Saxo propagan-
da inherited and taught in the early
home and school training of our people
was partly to blame and the control
of the press and the pulpit by the in
fiuential so-called Anglo-Saxon. abet-
ted by the British Empire. made the
Irish people an object of prejudice. As
long as your mother land. he said,
remains the only white nation in slav-
cry. just so long will you people be
recognized as an inferior race. In
closing, he urged support in the ma
tion-wide movement for the recogni-
ton of the Republic of Ireland by the
United States government
The other speaker of the evening
was the Rev. Roderick j. Mooney.
pastor of the First Uniyersalist
church Of Auburn. The majority of
the Irish people in the United States
are exiles here" said Mr.. Mooney.
Driven here by conditions in the moth
or country. over the doors of the
British institutions there seem to be
written mo Irish Need Apply" Our
race, he said, should not be judged
by the drunken rowdy IF our street
corner. The Irish are born leaders
Of men. They are leaders in our pull
pits. as ministers and as priests, as
professors in our colleges. as doctors
as lawyers and the best in pubic life.
Back to the War of the Rebellion
1t was by the help of the Irish soldier
that Old Glory was raised s., high
that no nation as. yet has dared to
haul ii down." said the speaker. This
is not religious war; but a united eff.
tort OF a great people to gain their
inherited liberty. The Irish, he said.
nave been defeated time and again.
out never have they been conquered.
The speaker told in detail of the con-
ditlons in that country and said that
the spirit of education received bv
thelre Xiles in free lands has awak
ehed hcr people to Il tremendous de-
sire for a freedom like our own Unit
ed States 1t is not Romanisn of
Professionalism or any other ism"
sad Mr.. Mooney. II is one great
united effort. In closing the sneaker
called for united support in the
cause Of the freedom of that land and
urged everybody to keep UP the work
ROW undertaken. asking the govern
merit of the United States to rccoy-
hize the independence of ireland
Preceding the speaking, Fox Broth
ers orchestra rendered several ex-
ceIient musical selections.

RED CROSS NOTES

The request of the Augusta Chapter
for chiidren's clothing to fill their
quota required by headquarters has
met with generous response but they
still are in need of garments for boys
and girls from 10 to II years The
clothing need not be new if it is in
good condition. Also garments made
of old material would be much appre-
ciated. 1t is not always easy to re-
member that although the war is over
so far as actual fighting goes the eff
feet on people and living conditions in

Advertising to the
Masses

The manufacturer OF a
soap, or a food, or any
article of household con-
sumption is not after the
"claSSeS"-he is after the
masses. Class circula-
ton does not interest the
man who is selling a prod
uct that can be used by the
entire human family,
1t is easy to load up the
jobber with a nationally
advertised article, but the
time comes sooner or later
when the president asks
the sales manager, "How
are we going to move the
goods'"
The jobberS have ware
houSes-thafS one of the
advantages of Sell'in g
through jobberS - but
goods stored in jobbers'
warehouses are not earn
ing money. The goods
may be "Sold" SO far as
the bookkeeping is con-
cerned-but no commod-
ity is really sold until the
ultimate consumer really
gets it.
AS a piece of diStrib-
uting machinery the job
Der is perfect. He saves
the manufacturer a lot of

trouble and expense. If
the manufacturer of a
packaged food were to dis
tribute directly through re-
tailers he. would have to
open over 500, separate
accounts. The jobber SIM
plifeS the problem of dis
tribution and collection
and saves the manufac-
turer from many losses.
AS a distributor he is a
SucceSs-but how is he 60
ing to "diStribute" if no
demand for the goods is
created?
What is the answer to
all this? What can the
manufacturer do to pull
the goods out of the job
ber's warehouse? There is
but one answer-uSe the
newspapers.
Years of advertising in
the magazines may have
given national fame to a
trade-marked commodity
but the newspaper must
come in to move the goods
off the shelves of the deal
er. Create a consumer
demand and the retailer
soon begins to flood the
jobber with orders for
goods-and so the ma
chinery of distribution is
started and the product
flows through natural
channels to the consumer.

their authors. 1t must ad-
vertise a story and the
author as a merchant
would advertise overcoatS,
or any other merchandise.
The publishers of the
Ladies Home Journal"
have spent as high as
$4,000 in the newspapers
in one month to advertise
a particular number of that
publication. Other maga-
zines, and even farm pa
pers, have made liberal
use Of newspaper adver-
tising through which to
get new subscribers. The
magazine publishers are
clever business men. They
are not always literary
dreamerS. They are money
makerS-and it takes a
very clever business man to
"put over" a successful
magazine nowadays. When
they spend millions of dol
lars in newspaper space
to advertise for readers
and subscribers it should
require no further argu-
ment to convince mer-
chants and manufacturers
that the newspaper is the
medium par excellence for
intensive advertiSing-the
medium that reaches the
largest possible nul:ber of
consumers in a given ter
ritory.

When a real, live, up
to-date magazine publisher
wants to get new Subscrib-
. erS, WHIT does he do? Does
he employ his own adver-
tiSing columns to get
them' He does not. He
would be reaching only
those who are already fa-
miliar with his magazine.
He goes after them through
the newspapers. "The
Literary Digest" has sent
out a circular boasting of
the fact that the publish
ers spent S4,ooo,oo in
newspaper a. DIV er Using
campaigns during the past
four years. The circular
says that the magazine has
had "a circulation growth
of 275 per cent since we
began advertising in Sep
tember, 1916"
Would any one ask for
a higher or more intelli-
gent tribute to the news
paper as a medium for
reaching the masses9
A magazine has but one
thing to advertiSe-and
that is the character of its
contents. 1t must sell the
editorial purpose and lit
erary character of the pub
lication. If its appeal is
to those who like fiction
it must tell the people
about the new stories and
