~COMMERCIALISM KILLING
SPAIN'S NATIONAL
PASTIMES

When sports are conducted large
ly for profit they lose much of
their popularity. This seems to be
true of the ancient national sport
of Spain. All authorities agree that
bull-fighting is on the decline and
eventually will be only a matter
of history. The Literary Digest
quotes Spanish newspapers and
magazines for the purpose Of show
ing that the bull-fight is gradually
giving way to other forms of
amusement A Madrid newspaper
presents some figures. In 1915
there were 6S5 bull-fights; last
year there were only 257.
The Digest quotes the following
explanation by the same news
paper: "a few decades ago, a torero
was almost a national hero; Ad-
miring crowds followed him and
the glory attached to his nam was
more important than money. Nova
days, the b~ull-fight is a business
proposition, and retired bull-fight-
ers have made short-lived resppenr-
ances for the sake OF a little
money, banking on the fame se-
quired in their youth, but the pub
lie has become aware OF this prsc-
tice and the number Of eorfidas is
constantly decreasing" Another
Madrid publication says the bull
fight is becoming more of a vsuds-
willie than a drama.
1t is strange that the bull-fight
has survived 70 long in n country
which claims to have kept pace with
modern civilization. Obviously II is
a relic Of barbarism and it is very
properly outlawed by the leading
nations.
This is case Of commercial
ism in sport that will not have any
evil effect. Various reforms have
been suggested in connection with
bull-fighting mostly on moral is
sucs) but no one has ever offered
convincing proof that this pastime
of extreme cruelty is worth saving.
Commsrcialism will have scored
n real triumph IL it brings about
complete destruction Of this sport.

THE NATIONS ROAD


The number Of motor ears and
trucks registered in the United
States on July l was 13.O49, 1913, a
gain of 2,44O,000 in a year. 1t is
estimated that by the end OF 1928
a million more will be added to the
total. For every s.5 persons in the
country there is nov one car or
truck. California leads, one motor
vehicle for every 400 persons.
Sales made on the instAllmsnt plan
show a rapid increase. Paying 1900
down, any wage III may have a
ar. The traffic problem is less
difficult than the garage problem.
Thousands Of automobiles have
passed the night in fields, lanes and
house lots. Spectators have Grown
rich by putting up cheap garage,
for no other purpose than housing
carr. All the world is riding in the
automobile.
More automobiles, more good
roads. Bonds issued for new con.
struction ire still a charge when
the original surface Is worn thin
or full of pot-holes. Money is
wasted on poor work. One kind OF
surfseins is discarded after another
and only concrete, which Is the
most expensive, finds favor. Mac
sdsmiIed roads arc Of the past.
An asphalt surface needs constant
patching. Money Is not necessarily
wasted on bonded roads because the
surface breaks up in n few years.
Thomas II. Macdonald, chief Of the
Federal Bureau OF Good Roads,
says that the use OF the improved
highway for pleasure and business
must 20 into the reckoning, and
further: 1.-THE grades remain in
tact, and much even of the sur
facing material remains TO form
the basis Of the renewed surface"
A pressing question Is how to dis
tribute the cost Of new roads and
repairs. This is at once a federal,
a state and a local question. On
main thoroughfares the freight
truck does intellectually more dam
age than the pleasure car. Some
means must be found to make the
truck pay its way, The tax on gaso-
! line consumed is not the solution.

PASTORS ADVICE TO
BRIDES AND GROOMS

There would be fewer divorces If
all prospective brides and grooms
followed the suggestions of an Ohio
clergyman.
Rev. W. H. Gyssn, a pastor of
Columbus, o., believes that young
people unprepared for the mstri-
monial adventure perjure them
selves at the altar, and make
empty mockery of the marriage
vows. Such men and women soon
turn their footsteps toward the
divorce courts, he declares.
Young men should be trained in
the maintenance of home and
family, and young women should
be schooled in housewifery, is the
opinion of the Ohio divine. He sug-
gests that all prospective house
wives perfect themselves in Cook
ology, ~bakeoiogy, washology, iron
ology, sewology, darnology, sweep
ology and histology" before as
Stunning the bonds Of matrimony.
1t is true that too many girls and
boys plunge into matrimony with
%unseeing eyes, forgetting the real
meaning of marriage, and disre-
garding the holiness of its vows. II
they would but pause to contem-
plate the practical side of the life
long union, they would realize that
marriage means than orange
blossoms, or a trip to the justice
of the peace. Fathers and mothers
would do well to add their voices to
that Of the Reverend Mr.. Gysan, in
an effort to impress young men and
women with the gravity of this
great step.

Better Than "a Riches

Under the dome of the Board of Trade in Manchester,
England, is this inscription: "a good name is rather to be
chosen than great riches" The thought is considerably
more than mere sentiment. 1t is good business.
A good name is reco -nzed as the biggest individual
asset a business can have. 1t il the very keystone of mod
en industry. Business today is done on such a broad
scale-every merchant and every manufacturer has such
a long list of customers-that 1t would not do to have a
reputation for slipping something over"
Advertising has standardized almost every article YOU
can buy. You don't have to bargain and dicker and bag
gle to know that you are getting as good as you give.
THAT'S why it pays to read the advertisements and 70
buy advertised goods. A products advertising is the best
guarantee of its faithful performance and lasting useful
ness or of its definite value. The advertiser would not
dare to risk his good name by advertising an unworthy
product.
If you value constant satisfaction-if you want to get
your full moneys worth every time-read the advertise
ments and buy advertised merchandise.
