lies at II of cent per reader.
This morning as 1 write, there
came into my office a man who repre-
sents a concern that has done busi-
ness for 60 years without advertising.
He told me that in 1922 they will let
the consumer know about the merits
OF their product SO they can own their
own business-as without advertising
they found during the last year that
they do not own it.
This business-like that of the au-
tomobilc, the tire, the packing house,
the flashlight, the storage battery
has reached rock bottom so far as
prices are concerned. Like all busi-
nesscs that have readjusted their
prices properly, this concern has had
the satisfaction of seeing its sales on
the up grade during the last sixty
days And it looks for one of the best
years of its business career in 1922,
because it will add the force of advcr-
tising to back up it's sales work to
and for dealers.
The prime factors in selling in 1922
will be the Salesman; Advertising to
the Dealer; and, last and most impor-
tant, Advertising to the Consumer.
We must plan to help the Dealer
more through advertising to create
the demand for products he handles,
and also to teach him how to adver-
tise and sell the products he handles;
so that the consumer will get lower
t>,,in
sales of advertised products.
Advertising will help manufacture
crs to realize their fondest hopes in
1929.
Advertising can of course do it's
best work for concerns in hclathy
manufacturing, sales, and financial
condition. There are thousands of
manufacturers in healthy condition
that plan for advertising to be used
in better and more effective way in
1922. President Harding, Secretary
Of Labor Davis, Secretary of Com
mcrcc Hoover, Postmaster General
Will Fl. Hayes and Mr.. Charles Henry
Macintosh, President of the Asso-
ciatcd Advertising Clubs of the World
arc doing their utmost to help bust
ness through every possible influence,
including countrywide publicity. They
have accomplished much in 1921;
they will do even more in 1929. They
deserve the united support of every
advertising man.
The Disarmament Conference in
Washington has led the way toward
better feeling between Nations, and
more stable conditions at home and
abroad. And because of that fact Pre-
sidcnt Harding, Secretary of State
Hughes, and all our good men at
Washington have given business men
confidence to ego ahead"
Go Ahcad! means Saner and safer
use Of advertising better sales and
business conditions rcsultingIin 1922.
Set the example, and work 10, 12
or lG hours a day, and in that way
we can catch up for time lost in 1920.

tack by interests which we can
not help, but fell are sordid and
selfish, has given us one little set
back, but those who represent

wishes of the people of America
and the fulillment Of what they
believe to be a Just obligation"

SQUIRE JOE LONG IS
STRONG FOR ROAD TAX
Former Strong Opponent Of Roed
Road Taxes and Bond Is
sues Changes Position

Squire Joe Long, of Kirk3ville,
who has voted against every
road tax and road bond issue,
previously proposed for Madison
county has come out strong for
the special Zoe road tax that will
be voted on by the people of
Madison county on Nov. 9TH.
Squire long declares that he is
aot only for the road tax this
time, but he is working for t.
He says that there has been
great change of sentiment i'll his
section of the country, also,
Kirksville and the Poosev sec-
tion have usually given majori-
ties against the road bond or tax
questions, but Squire Long says
there has been remarkable
change of sentiment, and he ex-
poets to see his whole country
down there roll up big majoriticS
for the tax.
Squire Long was in Richmond
a short while Monday Ell route
to the Masonic Grand Lodge
meeting at Louisville this week.
He told the Daily Register why
he has changed his position so
completely on the road tax ques-
ton.
"In the first place. said the
popular Squire, L have the ut
most confidence in the members
Of the Citizens Committee which
the Fiscal Court has designated
to have complete charge of the
special road tax fund, if voted.
They are all men of the highest
type; men of integrity and busi-
ness and enjoy the entire con-
hdence of every one in the COM
Then, too" sail the Squire,
81 have been noticing what Our
ueighbor counties have been do
ing. They have been voting
their money and building good
reads and enjoying them. | have
come to the conclusion that it
won't do for old Madison-the
very best county in the Blue
Grass to be behind the process
SION any longer, If were going
to keep step with progress, we've
got to build good roads. AMI
there's only one way to do it.
The state wants to pay half the
cost, and it's bad business not
t. let it. We have to vote tax
to provide our share and I'm for
It now and working for it, as ;
hope my friends will do"

BOGGS HAS STRONG
ARGUMENT FOR TAX
State Highway Engineer Hopes
His Home County VIII Help
Him Build 1t Coed Roads

Intense interest in what Madi-
son county purposes to do in re-
gards to voting the special 20
cent road tax was manifested by
State Highway Engineer Joe S.
Boggs, who came over from
Frankfort Sunday to spend the
weekend at his old home here.
Mr.. Boggs, as head of the
State Road Department is very
anxious to do something for his
home county of Madison, and for
that reason hopes the people
will vote this special tax and
provide funds so the State can
meet them halfway in building
good roads here.
Although he d:sIikes making a
speech to his home people, Mr..
Bog@s is coming back next Sat
friday afternoon to tell them face
tc. face just what he thinks OF
the road tax they are asked to
vote, and to urge them to vote
it if they really want good roads.
Jeff Morgan, formerly Of Madi-
son and Farm Bureau leader, and
Rodman Wiley. ex-COmmiss;ou-
er of Roads, will also speak here
with Mr.. Boggs.
Mr.. Boggs says that the fig
.resu show there are something
like 2,0C0 automobiles in Madi-
son county. The yearly dep~e-
citation to an automobile from
humping over bad roads IS fgur-
ed by experts at $1C0 a year.
Thus the automobile owners o.
Madison county are losing $40
eco d year in costs, repair bills
maintenance, etc. Of their cars
because Of their bad roads.
The State Highway Engineer
points out also a great saving
that the farmer who has produce
and crops to haul to market eff
fects over good roads. These fig
ures are estimated by the most
careful statiticians who have
studied records also. Over a bad
road a farmer requires a team
and a wagoi to haul a ten Of
stuff: whereas over good roads
he can haul with the same team
two tons. Thus with the extra
efforts, wasted energy time con-
sumed, costs etc. the difference
between bad and good roads IS
easily 100000 a year. 1t has
been conclusively proven that
the money which is wasted on
bad roads would build and main
tain a splendid system Of high
ways in the state.
Mr.. Boggs speaks in Rich
mond, at the courthouse Satur-
day afternoon and at Berca that
night. He will undoubtedly be,
heard by large audiences.

EASTERN NEEDS
MORE ROOM BADL Y
So Regents Vote To Purchase Or
Condemn William Gibson
Farm Adjoining

b The Board of Regents of East
crn Kentucky State Normal
School and Teachers College met
in regular quarterly session at
the office on the campus and
much business was transacted.
The chief business was to hear
the complaint of the North Jelli-
CO Coal Co. that the school in
crease its contract price for coal
of $500 per ton delivered on the
campus. 1t based its petition on
the increased cost OF labor which
has occurred since the contract
was made and alleged that
whether an increase was granted
that the coal would be delivered
as required in the contract. The
beard, after due consideration,
concluded that it had no authori-
tv to increase the contract price
and therefore refused the request
for the increase.
The Board Of Regents also de-
cided unanimously that the State
should acquire by purchase or
condemnation the entire farm
known as the Wm. Gibson farm,
which lies east and south OF the
Normal School campus. as there
is no doubt that Eastern now
needs and in the future purposes
and development Of this great in
stitution OF learning will have to
have this entire farm or at least
and at once a very large portion
thereof.
