Finds New Use
For Big Ben;
Weapon

Usually alarm clocks are used to
prevent ones being tardy for work
or some other business engagement,
but William Fixes has learned, much
to his regret, another use for big
Ben clock" namely, as a pain in
nicting weapon.
For William Fixes, 49, Of 90 Liv-
ingtone street is at Receiving hos
pital suffering from a lacerated
right side OF the forehead, abrasions
about the left eye and a fractured
frontal skull, police reports reveal
all because some one has
found new use for an apparently
harmless alarm clock.
The injured man stated to police
That he was. at 26l8 Waterloo street
When he was struck by the alarm
clock but that he did not see who
had thrown it.
On further questioning by police,
Fixes stated that iona Williams, IS,
of the Waterloo address had thrown
the clock. He further stated that
he had failed to catch the swift
footed iona,
Then sometime later, Will Davis.
50, of 1866 St. Aubin- street. Is
reported to have explained to Fixes
that he had thrown the clock. 1t
is as yet unreported why Davis
threw the clock or Just why Fixes
had suspected iona Williams OF the
act.
viii Davis and Henry Franklin,
46, the proprietor Of the house on
Waterloo, are being held while po-
lice are investigating the case.

truth about ADVERTISING
WHEN SHOULD A MAN ADVERTISER
BY CHARLES B. ROTH

are poor, because il you don't ad-
vertise then your public won't(know
what. you have to SELL"
The public Tesponds Immediately
to che man with courage enough to
invest his money in advertising even
when the condition of the market il
not so good as he would like to see
it. The public responds always to
courage.
In 1921, when America had short
business depression, A. w. Erick-
son, now dead, made the directors of
a company in which he was inter
ested, agree to spend Sl5O,000 a
month for advertising during the
next IL months.
Business fell off. The directors
wanted to renege. Mr.. Erickson
wouldn't let them. He made them
spend their monthly advertising al
lowance. He had faith.
When prosperity returned, as it
always does, that company, because
OF courageous leadership, skyrocket-
ed to the top, position it still
holds.
What had happened was that its
public, you consumers, read those
advertisements and subconsciously
became friendlyoto business which
would continue to tell you its story,
in bad times as well as in good. The
public reciprocated by giving it its
trade.
Whenever business man adver~
tises It shows he has faith In him
self, In bis community, In his goods
and In his customers.
He Is \ good business man with
whom to trade.
