(Official City, State and County Newspaper) Newspaper Advertising An enumeration of the reasons for advertising ha recently been given out. There are eight reason: advanced, but there are many others, of course. However, here are eight that are v splendid and highly convincing, as given in a southern news- paper: Newspaper reading is a universal daily habit; | newspaper advertising, therefore, reaches each day virtually all who buy. Newspaper advertising is the life blood of local trade because it touches all consumer sources in every communiy, It gives the national advertiser the same opportunity for complete consumer ap- peal in any locality. complete a financial transaction; neither is there any excuse for a person who receives money under- taking to be his own banker. Work, Not Not Luck, Counts There is an adage that “There is luck in leisure,” but there is no truth in that adage and there is as little truth in the preachment of many failures that “work and merit don’t mean anything any more, the lucky man will win anyway.” Of course there have been Battles won by luck in which the-better man lost, but\they are the pro- }Verbial exceptions which prove the rule and are so outnumbered by incidents the reverse as to be un- worthy of notice. Luck-won successes are acci- dents, Work-won successes are incidents. Acci- dents always attract more attention than incidents for the same reason that normat human beings, which are incidents, pay money to sce freaks of na- ture, which are accidents. To depend on luck is to play blind man’s buff among the laws of nature and of man, Those laws, when studied carefully, seem to prove that in the long run the best man wins the besi place, and personal merit does succeed. Evidences to the contrary are merely the flips of chance. Luck smiles on those who take off their coats, put their shoulders to the wheel, and plug away at the task. Fortune favors men who are not afraid of dreary, irksome drudgery Luck climbs no Everest. uck transmutes no cataract into electricity. Lueck js nev jadder from the carth of mediccrity to the heaven of achievement. Heat, the Scapegoat When it is hot everything is blamed on the heat “Crazy with the heat” is an old slang phrase which has no more pat application than that by which it is attached to those; who make excessive heat re- sponsible for everything from the loss of ball games to the birth of triple! One cannot doubt that there are numerous cases ‘of heat prostration and that some of them result fatally, but in many of the deaths credited to heat the ex temperature is Newspaper advertising cuts selling costs because it entails no waste in locality of circ! jon Manu- facturers use it to cover markets where it is profit able to do business. Newspaper advertising insures quick, thorough and economical dealer distribution and dealer good- will, because retailers are willing to sell products advertised direct to their own consumers, Newspaper advertising can be started or stopped over night, can be prepared between days to meet certain developments and to obtain immediate re- sults, Newspaper advertising enables manufacturers to check advertising results and costs in every market which they enter. Newspaper advertising costs less than any other kind. nerchant or other business man who is not advantage of the opportunities offered by newspaper advertising to boost his business now will still be facing readjustment problems when his competitor is back on a normal business plane. Men ieackers Vanishing In the last 25 years the schools of the United States suffered an amazing decrease in the propor- tion of men teachers. In 1880 45 per cent of the public school teachers in the United States were men; in 1890, 35 per cent; in 1900, 30 per cent; in 1910, 21 per cent, and in 1924, 17 per cent. While secondary ols have suffered the greatest per- centage of lo: many higher institutions of learn- ig it difficult te retain their best quali- admitted without argument that women are fitted by nature to handle young children of both sexes with more understanding, patience’ and general effectiveness than men because of and due to their mother instinct, but in subsequent stages of development the situation is greatly altered. There is then the need that these very impressionable per- sonalities, in their formative years, come in contact with the very highest types of men teachers. In fact many of the European countries consider it of so vital importance that a family allowance system for men teachers is in operation. The cause of the abandonment of the teaching pro- fession by men is only too obvious. Men of the calibre who make desirable teachers can earn far more in so many other lines of work that the won- der is not that so many are deserting teaching, but that so many are still faithful to a profession thai] hands upon the lever controlling the emergency valve. | dressed to-San: In order to follow a calling, Every man at his place, performing his duty as pays them so poorly. responsible only in an indirect wi Bather secks the cooling river and is drowned—heat.

Heat brings an abundance of discomfort and it is wise to take precautions to prevent serious results following in its trail, but there is no use becoming alarmed because the temperature hovers around 90 for a week or 5». It exceeds that for long periods in the tropies and yet people continue to exist there.

Somebody has said that heat is a state of mind and it is likely that much of the dis- comfort is more imaginary than real. They Wonder Why As a protest against the Washington debt settle- ment, 12,000 French war veterans, led by the blind and maimed, paraded in Paris past the George Wash- ington monument, which had just been decorated with wreaths. The French and American viewpoints coincided during the war when our men and our money were so badly needed. But now that it is all over, it is hard for France to understand that borrowed money | is money that is supposed to be paid back. Editorial Comment | How They Die (St. Paul Dispatch) Again, and yet again, the nation learns the spirit of its navy, and adds another line to the long seroll of her seamen who “die at their, posts.” The ill- fated submarine, S-51, reached dry-dock at Brook- lyn navy yard Thursday, after nine months of battle to recover it from the ocean bottom. Discussing an inspection of the interior of the boat Lieutenant Commander Elsberg told for the first time what his divers saw when they entered the torn hulk: “Every man was at his post.” There in his chair sat the body of the radio-op- erator, J.

Muscles vs. Whiskers (Jamestown Sun) Friday evening there was a wrestling match held in- Jamestown in which two of the most proficient athletes in this game in the whole world showed their skill and the contest was refereed by the world wide acknowledged premier wrestler of all recorded thistory of that sport. Yet barely a hundred per- sons were interested’ enough to attend the match, see these wonderful athletes in action and hear the story of a clean life that has left this premier @thlete, Farmers Burns, in perfect physical and mental health at sixty-five years of age. Saturday afternoon a few bewhiskered and long haired athletes, advertised as religious cranks or freaks, played baseball in the city against local athletes before a crowd of several thousand people. While careful analysis really shows little more sen- sational about the game in which these whiskered athletes took part, than the average games in the city league, of which we have three a week with an attendance of from a dozen to fifty or there- abouts this great crowd was thrilled by their wonder- fal performance.
