What causes smoke?
Smoke comes from a fire because
the gases which are in process of

Complete combustion results in

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-American
manufacturers ''are looking to 1928
with confidence" and are planning
to increase their advertising ex-
penditures over 1927, 8. E. Cony-
bears, president Of the Association

''The idea that business slumps

The manufacturers of the coun.
try "know that advertising pays"
Conybears declared. It is no longer
an experiment.
Never before in history have
business men been able to get in
as quick touch with the consumer

Business men are beginning to

costs on the basis Of local trading
areas" Conybears said. "They are
doing this so they can determine
what regions are profitable and
thus take the guess work out of

MINISTER SAYS
BIBLE IS MOST
}. POPULAR BOOK
The Rev. FaCkIer Speaks on
Importance of the
: Scriptures.

"The world seems to be filled with
books and still men are writing
more" the Rev Ii. c. E. FacKler
said Sunday at st. Matthew Luth-
eran Church while giving his lecture
on THE Bible"
"The printing presses are operat-
ing night and day." the Rev. Fack-
Ter said. Though there are many
books being printed, there is no book
more popular than the. Bible.
There are more Bibles printed
than any other book. There are hun
dreds of Bibles printed every day.
This book is printed in several hun
dred different: languages and dia.
lects.
1--WE as Christians ought to know
some facts about this popular book.
We ought to know. just why it is so
popular. From the sixty-six books
that are in this volume we can gath
er facts on philosophy, science,
history and even find words ready
for the composer. But this is not
what makes the book popular.
There are some religious sub
jects which have reference to the.
Bible as the word of Cod A. study
of these subjects would be profitable.
Such subjects are: The authenticity
M the Scriptures; the unity of the
ycriptures; the inspiration of the
Scriptures, the inerrancy of the
Scriptures. But this is not what
makes the book popular.
Why Popular
THAT which makes the book popu
lar !; is the fact that in it there is
the living, the life-giving, the soul
saving power. The Scriptures say
'Ye have purified your souls in obey
ing the truth-Ye have been born
again not with a corruptible seed
but OF incorruptible by the work of
God, which liveth and abideth for
ever
Some may consider the Bible
nice book, or that it is book with
good thoughts or some may COM
ment on the good love story that is
found in some of. the books. Such
are superficial thoughts that fail to
discover the real power in the Scrip
lures which is the living, the life
giving, the soul-saving.
Wherein does this power consist?

In these contests radio is coming
to have a bigger part each year. At
first the idea of carrying receiving

the aeronauts. The two winners last

Arrangements have ben made with
certain. prominent broadcasters to
provide the fliers, at given intervals,
information of value to them;
weather reports, news items and
other material of interest, including
the progress Of other balloons, as.
reports are received. WIZ, New

thus serving the contestants.
