BONAR LAW IS
FIRSTPREMIER
CANADIANBOR
Day Was Devoted To
Formalities Of Chang
ing Monarchial
Government.
(By Associated Pressl

LONDON. Oct. 23-Andrew
Bonar Law today, in the tradi-
tional phrase of the court cir
cular kissed hands upon his ap-
pointment as Prime Minister
and first Lord of the Treasury"
and thus becomes England's
first Canadian-born premier.
Today was devoted to the
formalities necessary in
monarchial country to a change
in the government. The King
in the morning gave an audience
to and took formal leave of the
outgoing prime minister, Mr..
Lloyd George.
Then came the unionist meeting in the
afternoon when Mr. Bonar Law was
unanimously elected leader Of the party
This was followed by an audience at
buckingham Palace when Mr.. Bonar Law
at the kings invitation undertook to
form Il new administration.
The king viii hold a privy council
probably Wednesday if the prime minis
ter has by then completed his ministry.
for the swearing in OF the new minis
ters. The king will on the advice OF the
prime minister proclaim the dissolution
Of parliament Thursday and. according
to present arrangements, elections Will
be held Nov. Is.
Mr.. Banor Law is understood 70 have
his cabinet list almost completed, and
il is expected il will be announced tonor-
row. It is the almost universal opinion
that he succeeds to a most difficult and
onerous task and many misgivings are
heard 10 whether Lis health will stand
the inevitable strain. but he has made il
quite clear that if he finds his health
unequal to the task. he shall be allowed
quietly to step aside.
The situation IS unique in the anna 5
OF British election politics inasmuch as
with only three weeks TO the election
date. none of the leaders has yet an
nounced ais policy Mr.. Lloyd Georges
opponents are making merry with the
suggestion that. the sword he announced
himself as brandishing when he left Lon
don Saturday must have been lost some
where on the way to Leeds.
The only real question before the elec-
torate is whether they wish TO he gov
erned by a coalition. But that cannot
properly be described as an election PLANK
because, except in the quite unanticipa'-
ed result of n tremendous landslide in
favor of one particular party. II Is al
most certain no party will be returned
strong enough 70 form a government
without the cooperation OF some other
party.
The contest seems likely 10 be one Of
personalities Of men rather than meas
ures 20 far as these two parties are con-
cerned.

THE volume of contracts awarded
during the last two weeks Of October,
which are normally dull, shows that
there is expectation of less let-up than

NEWSPAPER IS
BEST MEANS OF
ADVERTISING
F. u. Arthur Discusses Meth.
DDS in Talk to AID Club
Members.

Newspaper advertising was given
first place as a medium by which the
department store may best reach its
probable customers in a talk by f. z.
Arthur, store superintendent of Strain
Brothers, before the Ad club at it's
luncheon meeting Friday at the Hotel
Rainbow. Mr.. Arthur's talk was one
of the series being given on advertising
at the meetings Of the club.
Pointing out the different in costs,
Mr.. Arthur said that newspaper adver-
Using is usually computed at about
one cent a line for each $4,000 persons
reached. while the cost of direct mail
advertising is about S25 for each 1000
persons reached.
Newspaper Reaches Community
For the store that caters to the
entire community and that has goods
for which everyone is a possible con-
sumner, the newspaper meets the re-
~quirements. Some exclusive stores,
whose wares have a limited appeal,
may use the direct mail advertising
alone with good effect, he said.
Billboards are good, he said, but
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1921-current, 1922-12-16

have the drawback that they are good
but about once a month. They have
appeal for the person that sees them
every day only at the times when
they are changed.
Showing the results which have been
found by the Strain Brothers adver-
Using, Mr.. Arthur said that some days
Of the week prove more effective in
advertising certain products than 9TH
ers. Furniture is best advertised in
Sunday newspapers, he said, the ads
on this day having better pulling power
since the family can better discuss
them and determine purchases. Satur-
day is the choice day for grocery adj
vertising, while Monday is for washing
machines, finding the housewife in a
sympathetic mood on that day.
He pointed out that perhaps grocery
were missing an opportunity
by not advertising nor or Monday
mornings. He said hat this appeared
to be an ideal day for grocery ads,
since many housewives desire to re
plenish stocks of groceries diminished
over Sunday.
In the selection of items fossan ad-
yertisement, the chief factors are
timeliness and seasonableness. Mr..
Arthur said. He pointed out methods
used in attaining distinctive advertising
and simple rules to follow.
SaIesmanship Needed.
He closed his talk by emphasizing
the need of craftsmanship to follow
advertising effectively. The greatest
factor in selling goods is still with the
sales force, he said.
f. A. LaBossiere spoke on the con-
stitntion of the United States. having
been invited to repeat a talk given
before the Kiwanis club at it's constitu-
ton day program. lie made an appeal
TO maintain the spirit of the constitu-
ton, making such changes as needed
from time to time by amendment
rather than follow the advice of those
who would have a new constitution
