THE PILGRIMS
KNEW TIE BIBLE

Two hundred years ago q little
band Of men and women lived on
faith and hard work in the forests
of Massachusetts,. They are known
now as Pilgrims, because they sail
ed from England to find q place to
worship God without restraint.
They brought their pastor with
them-few modern immigrants do.
The Pilgrims were poor and un.
learned, but they knew the Bible.
That knowledge developed a strong
and noble type of character all of
us admire, These first settlers of
our country would not be known
to posterity had they not been SO
well acquainted with their Bible.
Is your Bible parlor ornament
or a study book? Do you read it
around the family lamp? Do you
read it every day? Do you think
the Bible is gradually being lost
to us as it was to the Hebrew chill
dren? Remember their fate?
These thoughts were suggested
by discussion Of the Sunday
school topic last Sunday.

PERSONALITY
IN YOUR ADS

What is it in one individual that
gives him a greater Influence and
command over people than anoth-
or? What is ii in one salesman
that makes him more productive of
sales than another? The answer
to these questions is simple-it is
personality.
Personality has always had a
wonderful influence in business.
The salesman's success depends up
on his personality, as he meets his
prospects face-to face.
Personality speaks through writ
ten words as we'll as through spok-
en- words, and the influence of writ
ten words is just as potent as the
influence of spoken words. The
press is fast displacing the pulpit
and the orator as potential force.
Today new force is at work in
business, and instead of one sales
man talking to one individual the
salesman-advertiser talks to thous-
ands. If the advertiser puts the
same measure of personality into
his advertisements that tie good
salesman puts into his talks to the
individual the results will be null
tiplied by thousands.
It is the personal appeal in the
salesman's talks that makes what
he says productive of results. The
personal appeal in advertisements
is just as essential to sell goods
through advertising. Back of the
personal appeal must be personal
ity, sincerity and confidence. The
advertiser who is strong in person
ality and puts his whole PERSONAL
ity in his dvertisements, has a big
product and believes firmly in his
product, will have no difficulty in
establishing confidence.
The great orator in the prepera-
tion of his Grafton takes into con-
sideration the occasion, his pros
pective hearers and how best to
say what he has to say to Influence
them. If the orator has great per-
sonality, masterful Grafton aud
masterful delivery there is no ques-
tion that he will influence his hear
ers.
What is true Of an orator is true
Of an advertiser. If the advertiser
has a great personality, big pro.
duct aud prepares masterful ad-
vertisement he will influence his
readers and big results will follow
in the natural course.

that I had kept him in mind and he
gave me a brief review of what
came to him after our meeting. He
had remained in England. doing mis-

then came back here. Soon after
that he enlisted as chaplain for a

he was sent as "a dying man" to

Of Representatives in Dover. The
speaker wore a peculiar woolly wig
like an inverted beehive of the old
type. The top was smooth and
around the back were a dozen CORFU

had the appearance of a wise owl.

the one worn by the speaker. Two
parties were represented-the La
