Get Busy-Advertise,
Says Roger w. Babson
(AlI publication and radio rights
strictly reserYed.)

(AH publication and radio rights
strictly reserved.)
In discussing his recent trip about
the country, Roger w. Babson, stats
tician and business authority, out
lines the first opportunity of the COM
ing period of prosperity as follows:
"On this recent trip, which took me
into practically every large industrial
center in the United States, talked
to business men, large and small,
about their business, and we dis
cussed both the present situation and
future plans.
at is very apparent that the ex-
ectives Of America have been busy
since January, 1920, even if the bust
nesses themselves have not.
'Tn fact, American business men
have probably done more real think
ing since the depression set in than
they did in the whole era of pros
perity which preceded it. Almost
every man / talked with has a plan
for new building, a new product, or
the development of new sales field.
The project is on paper, the details
have been worked out, and he is just
waiting for conditions to get settled.
All of these plans mean potential
business for next year or the year
after-actual orders will be placed
Just as soon as prices and markets
reach stable levels.
"This situation apparent as we
reach the bottom of the present area
of depression in 1922, offers the first
real chance of the coming period of
Improvement. Future business Is
now on the production counter. You
can buy it cheaper now than you will
be able to buy it at any time during
the next four or five years.
at takes no little courage to go
counter to the popular current and
spend money for advertising when
immed. ate returns are smaller than
usual, but | am convinced that the
man who has that foresight and cOur-
age will gain an ADVANTAGE run
ming start-that will carry him
through the coming periods OF I'M
prOvement and prosperity.
1922 is the year to use the reserve
set aside during the fat years. Cut
production costs as much as possible,
but don't skimp your selling appro-
priation during 1922. Defer eXpan-
sion of plant until next year-but
this year-increase your advertising.
''Take the aggressive course! There
will be considerable business this
summer, more the coming fall and
winter, more still next year. But the
man who goes after it now is the man
who will get it.
ain general business the slight sea-
sonal reaction which / forecast three
weeks ago for January is already ap-
parent. The Babsonchart Index
shows business running II per cent
below normal per cent lower than
last week.

Norma Talmadge in
"The Passion Flower"

Sunny Spain has neve been more
colorfuily or faithfully transplanted
to the sceen than in 'The Passion
Flower" in which Norma Talmadge
rises to great dramatic and emotional
heights and scores her most artistic
and fascinating achievement IN the
silent drama to date.
''The Passion Flower" opens at
the Magic City Theater tonight
Thursday with Norma Talmadge
and a big supporting cast. It is a
worthy adaptation of the stage play
of the same name by Jacinto Bena-
vente. SPANS greatest living drama
fist. and is a credit to the artistry OF
the director, Herbert Brenon, as well
as to the charming and talent star.
On he stage Nance O'Neill delight
ed her audiences in the role of RAJ
munda," the mother, but in the screen
version Norma Talmadge is the en-
trancing and fiery Acacia" the
daughter who spurns the love of her
Jealous step-father and is the center
of a most romantic and tragic tale.
Norma Talmadge has an eXceP-
tionaI supporting cast, with two lead
ing men, COurtenay toote, VINO plays
the role of Esteban, the step-father,
and Harrison Ford, as Norbert, the
poet and lover of Acacia. Others in
the cast deserving of mention or Eu-
lalie Jensen, as Raimunda; Charles
| Stevenson, Alice May, Herbert Vance,
III. D. Mcclellan, Austin Harrison
Robert Agnew, Robert Harold Stern,
Natalie Talmadge, Robert Payton
Gibbs, Augustus Balfour and Waiter
Wilson.
"The Passion Flower" in its pic
ture form, is one of the most note
worthy contributions to the silent dra-
matte art of recent years, and II 1t
is to be taken as a criterion, great
merit in subsequent productions may
be looked for from the Talmadge
studios in the future.

THE KISS

About every three months some
doctor or other scientific fellow gets
on the inside pages of the metropoli-
tan daiIies by libeTating the statement
that kissing is a means of Speeding
disease and insists that it must be
stopped.
Cut out kissing? 1t can't be done.
At least if it ever does come to pass,
there will be no use of having doctors
for who in the world would care a
hang to live if tn . osculatory sport
be eliminated? It's about the only
thing left that serves to inject the
proper pep into the business of life,
the great international pastime that
cheers but does not inebriate.
But have cheer, young friends,
there are still some sensible folks left
scientific folks, too-who are on
the side Of the kiss, and we believe
every word they utter in its defense.
The psycho-analysts say that the
kiss is the safety valve of our love
emotion: an outlet for our affection.
Now, old Doc Gloom, smoke that
in your pipe, will you?
You know-all of US know-that
the most chronic crouch is changed
into an optimist, by the kiss of a little
child.
NE wonder if the medical sage
wants us to abandon the mothers kiss
the kiss that has more influence for
good than all the man-made laws on
ali the statute books in this wide
world.
G. far &C most of rs are concerned,
there's no use arguing the question,
for, even though the kisses that find
their way hither are a negligible
quantity, we enjoy thinking of the
gioriously blissful thrills of ycster-
day.
Germs! What chance has an or
binary germ against a genuine from
the-center-of-the-s kiss?
You go on about your business,
Doc, and you needn't waste your
breath telling us to cut out kissing,
for we simply aren't going to do it.

DEMAND FOR PULP
WOOD INCREASES 10000

According to an article appearing
in Paper, about 100000 cords of
wood are needed to supply the an
nual demands of the paper trade in
this country. In 1900 only about
100000 cords were consumed for
wood pulp, and in 1911 about 4,5O0,-
600 cords. 1t is estimated that in
1880 about 1O,5OO,OO0 cords will be
required and as high as $4,000, 900
cords will be demanded in 1850. The
increase in the consumption of wood
from 1900 to 1919 has been over 800
per cent.
About 80 per cent of all paper
used in this country is now derived
from wood.

A RoTTINC hnilding is abso- "A lute waste, because a small investment in paint will save it. A building that is not protected by paint must either be rebuilt or repaired in a few years at costly figure.
 Check the costs. Compare the prices of paint and lumber. Can you afford to bear the expense of rebuild ing or repairing your home, when to save it costs so little?
 When you paint, make an additional saving by using the best paint. It spreads easily-saves labor cost. It covers more surface per gallon than "cheap" paint.
