He is not only an un- camny shot, but is especially adept at caging the ball on threet hrows, It is also interesting to note that Miner is showing his heels to such scintillaters as Miller of Michigan and Funk of Iowa despite the fact that both of these players are per- forming for winning quintets. The fact that Miner is topping the-field in scoring, though workIng under the handicap of being with a con- sistent loser, amply attests to his ability on the courts. No doubt were he with a championship contender he would be even further out in front. Billy Evans Says— | Does trick stuff in sport hurt one’s game? e.

The report emphasizes the fact that an economic price for rubber hag a great influence upon the de- velopments of highway transporta- tion. According to the official report presented by Senator McCormick, reliable information which is now available warrants the belief that Tubber —prices will be increased. It"is stated that by Nov. 1, 1923, the available stocks of rubber will have been reduced to six months’ supply, -whereas egiht months is taken by the Stevenson committee, comprised of British government officials, plantation owners and rubber growers, as a necessary supply to do bifsiness, The Department of Commerce emphasizes the fact that this is an assumption of maximum releases | ‘under the Stevenson plan. It is significant to know that there is no; allowance for increased demand to { meet an estimate of 2,000,000 addi- tional automobiles in 1923. It is} claimed that in this field rubber is a necessity and if the cost is not} prohibitive ‘the velume required will be greatly increased. Official figures indicate that production of rubber will remain at 60 per cent standard during the period Nov. 1, 1922, to May 1, 1923. Its expected that there will be a shortage of ap- proximately 15,888 tons by May 1.! The government .report stresses the fact that it was the announced | purpose of the British policy to re- Store the market prices so that plantations in the colonies could produce rubber at a profit and to, restrict production to absorb what | they thought was an excessive sur- | plus of crude rubber stocks. i it is said that a committee of American rubber products. manu- facturers have been active in gov-} ernment circles for several days| in an effort to obtain government support to their plan for encourag- ing rubber growing in the Philip- pines. BERLIN LONG ‘ONDANCE HALLS ‘SHORT ON HOMES Berlin, Feb. 26.—Berlin has ‘too many danceyhalls and too few apart- ments, it as decided recently by the municipal authorities, and drastic measures were taken to bring abouts a change. \ Certain fox trot places of -amuse- ment have been ordered closed, and th erooms are to be made over into quarters where people may live. Since the dancing craze. struck the German capital there has _ been ‘eat demand for rooms pf most any Kind, praticularly in’ the down tow. districts, These were quickly fur- nished and advertised as dance halls with most pretentious names. In one instance a “dance hall” was, brought into being in less than\ two days, The furnishing consisted chiefly of |B putting down some l{noleum, hafiging a few fancy trimmings from the -ceil-|g ing, crowding off into one corner,|& and then permitting the waiters to take charge.; The crowd did the rest.! The craze reached ‘such :a stage recently, that officals estimated the city had more places of entertai ment and amusement than sever fore in history. But the new orddr has put many of the smaller esta lishments out of business, and n whére jazz music once had full sway! after dark, there are entire fatailles slumbering peacefully. ~ ¥ RS) AEA — : Papermaking, ‘introduced from China, was an important industry 1n; Japan as long ago as-/the time of.

Things We Have - Always Known \ The recent business condition has brought to the forefront of thought many fundamental considerations - that have always been known but have been damned with faint praise. Human nature in the mass is very much like human nature in the individual. One of its dominant charac- 3 sl r ee re teristics has been summed up in the observation, “You never miss the water till the well runs dry.” We never appreciate fundamental things until we have occasion to do without them. This observation has a special application to the De- mand of the public for the products of industry. While the Demand was at high tide and everybody was busy trying’to supply that Demand at a profit no one, seem- ingly, gave a thought to where'the Demand came from, how long it might last, or what would happen if it should fail. We merely assumed the permanent existence of the Demand, just as we assume the presence of water, air, and fire. : But a day came when Demand began to subside, and in many ‘industries it came almost to a full stop. And_ then we migséd it, and realized, as never before, what an importagt thing it was. And we began -to inquire where it came from in the first place, and how it might be restored,” + We always knew—everybody knew—that Desire for things made a Demand for them in the market. That pedpie desired things we accepted as an elemental fact. But'when we discovered that Desire fluctuated we be- gan to appreciate that Desire, as we know it, is a thing created by the art of man. it is a highly specialized forni of an elemental need—just as a Louis XVI chair is made out of.a tree. | : ” This discovery ied to another equally important dis- covery that the means of refining and specializing that Desire was Advértising. The gigantic work that has been’ accomplished by modern advertising now stands out in bold relief. It has been the means by which the ’ pefinéments of divilization have been made known avid made desirable,-and this desire has been made into De- mand. -.It.is a simple fact that a million profitable forms of industrial a¢tivity owe their very existence to the faet that Advertising upheld the standards of living — 3 which in turn provided the-demand for their products . wy i ‘ Publiehéd by the Bismarck Tribune, in co-operation i with The American Association of Advertising Agencies MONDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 1923 an ll FAATOTTRRETA LUGO.
