CHURCH PUBLICITY
METHODS OUTLINED
Principles of Psychology
Used in Business Recon-
mended by SteIzIe.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, October 25.-In adver-
tising the church, the same principles
of psychology must he used that the
business man employees in selling
goods. Charles Stelzle of New York
told the eighth annual conference on
church publicity here today.
"On general principles, it is safe to
assume that the. ubhc knows nothing
whatever about the church" said Mr..
Stelzle, who is chairman of the church
advertising department of the Inter
national Advertising Association.
'In advertising the church, 1t
should be made plain that it is not
a reform organization, forum,
social service league, a political party,
nor are it's preachers supposed to be
economic experts. The church has an
important social message and mission
and this fact should be advertised to
the world; but it's supreme task is
spiritual. If it fails here it has lost
out completely.
THE church has a sure cure for
sin, but judging by the publicity" he
said, lit is not very excited about
offering this sure cure to the people.
Years Of experience have demon
strated that comparatively few min
listers seem able promptly to give
good reasons why a man should give
his life to the church. Nor are they
prepared to state briefly and convinc-
ingly what is the great message of
the church to the masses of the
people.
The church must let a sorrowing
world know shat it offers comfort to
the desolate, that it heals the broken
hearted, that it gives strength to the
weak and the weary; it can advertise
no greater facts than these, for herein
it offers what the world Graves most
earnestly"

America is in dangerous situation

New Toy Factory
Under Consideration

There is strong probability that
the Ted Toy-lers, Inc, of New Bed
ford, Mass. who have been looking
over the situation in Pennington for
a week or more. through the efforts of
the Pennington Chamber of Com
merce. will locate a factory for the
manufacture of toys from hard wood,
in the very near future. The pur-
chase of the abandoned factory of E

as already told in this paper, has been
abandoned, as has the use of the old

been found unsuited to the purpose.

of Main street (upper) between the
Burnham & Morrill, corn canning fac
tory and the residence of John Dag

tracks OF the Sandy River & Rangeley
Lakes Railroad at a price of $4,000,
while Mr.. Gould's price for a small
strip of land on his side of the road
was $4,000, which eliminates that from
consideration. A petition was circulat-
ed Thursday and signed by such of
the business men as could be reached
asking the selectmen to call a special
town meeting to consider the matter
of exempting the company from tax
alton for term of years, and what

Editorial Comment
Not "OpenIy Arrived A."
(Boston Transcript)


The rumored naval demonstration
of the Italians and Spanish at Tan
gier has blown over, and q quite
opposite current, one would say, has
been set in motion by the spectac-
Chamberlain and Signor Mussolini at
Leghorn.
With reference to the present
situation of European affairs, it may
be said that the open diplomacy"
anticipated by the idealists under
the influence Of the fourteen points"
never seemed so far away as now.
Europe is full of the darkest hints.
France and Germany are, it is said,
getting together, and Britain must
play against such an agreement a
secret understanding somewhere else
with Italy, for example; for 1t Is
a patent fact that the relations be-
tween Italy and France are by no
means cordial No one can penetrate
the secrets of the confabulation In
the cabin of the Duce's yacht
Giuliana at Leghorn. And whatever
the understanding may be that has
left Signor Mussolini smiling so
broadly, it is sure that 1t was not
"openly arrived at"
Let us hope that 1t makes for
European peace, and does not light
a new trail of international exas-
peration. But such conferences are
absolutely in the line Of the old bal
ance of power. Their agreements are
made over the head of the League OF
Nations. Geneva can only reflect
them.

The Shady Forest had turned to
gold and red and yellow, like a great
big nosegay. On the ground the
brown leaves crinkled under ones
feet, and every time Billy Breeze
whistled loudly a shower of them
would fall from the treetops. Now
and again this merry little breeze
scattered red and gold leaves from
the maple trees, yellow leaves from
the beech and birch trees and told
the crimson leaves of the sumacs to
nod goodbye to sweet summer.
Dear me-" thought the little rab-
bit. as he hoped merrily along the
Winding Trail this beautiful October
day. How quiet seems the wood.
No birds are singing" and on he
hoped until he came to the corn
field, when whom should he meet
but Professor Jim Grow.
Flows my little bunny boy to-
day." asked the kind old bird.
"A little lonely answered the lit
tie rabbit.
Yes. most of our feathered
friends have left for the Sunny
South. answered the old crow.
Dear, DEAR" sighed the bunny
boy.
Inere goes Old Bill BuZZard and
his family" suddenly exclaimed
Professor Jim Grow pointing I'D to
the Big Blue Sky. Sure enough,
there they were. just setting out for
a warmer climate.
Their two young ones are as big
as their parents" went on the wise
old crow, although not as yet bald
headed" he added with a laugh.
They still have down on the tops of
their heads. But their wings are
strong enough for a long journey"
Wings are wonderful things " ex-
claimed the little rabbit.
We'll, I'll say So" agreed the old
professor bird. You can jump off
from the ground just little way
into the air, but you cannot fly into
1t, as the birds do. 1t is because you
have no wings. You have a fine
pair of jumping hind legs, little rab-
bit. But they are not meant for
flying"
But how is it that you birds hv
with your wings" asked the curious
little bunny.
We push ourselves up with them
into the air. Yes sir, We push down
upon the air with our wings Just as
