POOOPOOOPOOP® “This is My 48th Birthday.” Pietro Mascagni. Pietro Mascagni, the brilliant com- poser of the opera “Cavalleria Rusti- cana,” was born at Leghorn, Italy, September 7, 1863. His father was a baker and it was his wish that his son should study law. sole ambition was to become a mu- sician. The father soon became re- conciled to his son’s plan of musical cultivation and sent him to the fam- ous Milan Conservatoire to be edu- cated. As early as 1881, when only eighteen years old, Mascagni com- posed an operetia. His next ventures were an “Ave Maria” and a “Pater Noster,” which won for him the first prize in the Milan competitions. But until the first public performance of the “Cavalleria Rusticana,” the world at large knew nothing of the bril- liant young composer. From that moment, however, his fame spread throughout the musical world. The opera has been performed in Italian, English, French, German and Rus- sian. . KNOCKS FAKE ADVERTISING Frank Cumnock, who is trying to organize a “local” here for the Na- tional Retail Merchants’ Association, has very peculiar and proper ideas about advertising. 1In the Bartles- ville (Okla.) Examiner of August 20, he says: - “The merchants of Bartlesville have joined in with the rest of the merchants of the state to eliminate the fake advertising schemes that have been such a burden to the mer- chants in the past. The oily-tongued stranger who comes to Bartlesyille in the future, to issue a livery stable directory, will find little encourage- ment. The man who offers to paint advertisements on trees or barbwire fences at so much a letter, will be thrown over the transom. The Bart- lesville merchants are adopting the same plan as other cities through- out the state and hereafter spend no money to have their names painted on the town cows, toy balloons or wood bucks. The ‘movement has spread all over the entire state, and the day is at hand when Oklahoma merchants will adopt advertising through the safe and sane plan of doing their advertising through the local papers. It is the only way to get results; it is the only way to reach and interest the people who buy things. The people read their home papers, but they don’t read tel- ephone poles, cows or barbwire fenc- es. You never yet saw or heard of a man, seated by his fireslde,'reading a board-fence or the side of a barn to his family. Newspaper advertising is good for the merchant, good for the town and good for the newspapers themselves. The newspapers are entitled to it as a matter of justice. They are always But Pietro’s| preaching -the gospel of patronizing home industries; they are ‘educating the people away from the mail or- der habit, as best they can; the home merchant receives:the benefit of this gospel, which goes on the year round, and they are ungrateful when they do a niggardly business with the lo- cal newspapers and spend their mon- ey for printing and advertising with outside firms or fakers who blow in- to town one day:- and out the mnext, often leaving unpaid bills behind. The newspapers are the town builders, the means of bringing new industries, new people and bettering the community. This is always done by the newspapers and there is no better advertisement for a city and the merchants in it, than good, live, up-to-date, wide-awake newspapers. So cut out the fakers and grafters and give your local newspapers a chance.” POOOOPPOOOOOOOEOSG © WHAT OTHER PAPERS SAY, ¢ GOOOOOCOOOOOBOO If there is anybody in Minnesota who is not heartily glad that Geo.
