The prelude of the picture, which is to be our trump card at the conven- tion, will portray the history of ad- vertising.

The first scene of the prelude will be a close-up of the old boy grinding out the world’s first ad copy. From that on the pic- ture will take up the history of ad- vertising and cover its progress up to date. At the convention, we will formulate plans for sending tilms and suitcase proiection machines to tell the manufacturer’s story in foreign lands.” GAMBLERS AND BOOZE SELLERS PLEAD GUILTY IN DISTRICT COURT Two Womerjfienders Are Suddenly Taken IlI; Both in Hospital North, Clare LaValley, John Lewey (father of Frank Dewey, is now serv- ing a jail sentence,, Peter Billedeau James Kelly and John Slow all en- tered a plea of “guilty” to the in- dictments charging gambling.
