The topic is treated in an un- unusual way and contains a wealth of advice for those who throu, lack of persistence or failure to observe fundamental principles rem: skeptical regarding the value of advertising. (BY BRUCE BARTON.) What I have to say will be very brief, very informal, and will consist principally of two stories, which I think have a direct ap- plicaton to your business. The first concerns a member of my profession, an advertising man, who was in the employ of a circus. It was his function to precede the circus into various commu- nities and there to call at the newspaper offices and make sure that the notices would be flattering, and to put up upon the fence posts and barns pictures of the bearded lady and the man-eating snakes, and finally, to get in touch with the proprietor of some store and contract with him for the space on either side of the elephant to be used for advertising purposes in the parade. So, coming to a cross-roads town one time, he found that there was only one store and the proprietor did not receive him enthus- iastically, Said the proprietor, “Why should I advertise? I have been here for twenty years. There isn’t a man, woman or child around in these parts that does not know where I am and what I sell and how I do business.” The advertising man answered very promptly, because in our business if we hesitate we are lost, and he said to the proprietor, pointing across the street— “What is that building over there?” The proprietor said to him, “That is the Methodist Episcopal church.” The advertising man said, “How long has that been there?” a The proprietor said, “Oh, I don’t know; seventy-five years prob- ably. t “And yet,” said the advertising man, “they ring the church bell every Sunday morning.” My second story also has a religious flavor. It relates to a gentleman named Joseph, now deceased. Those of you who, like Mr. Seitz and me, were brought up on the Bible, may have found some account of his very remarkable business career in that book. Those of you who have not read that book or who do not have it in your libraries, may have heard of him through the works of Mr. Rud- (Continued on Page Bight) BIG MONEY SAVING OPPORTUNITY FO BE FOUND IN BARGAIN WEEK by haphazard methods will, by ob- serving closely, see just how they cut down the cost of living. Less fortunate neighbors are going to be in Casper. These people in many instances have to spend much of their time in saving money as well as earning it. They have been taught by experience that they must econom!ze and must take advantage of low prices if they are to make ends meet. That is why they are golng to take advantage of Casper’s bargain week, ‘There are always bargaing in Casper, A week never passes but that at some store or anotner one will be able to make a purchase at a great saving. It behooves the econom- feally minded public to take ad- vantage of such discounts, When every store falls in line for a whole week offering iow prices for stand- ard goods the public cannot avoid being brought face to face with bar- gains. It 4g in this way that the purchaser will profit, He will af- terwards look to Casper’s stores to get what he wants at the lowest pos- alble cost, LUIS JACOBS IS ACQUITTED SAN DIEGO, Calif., July 21,—Dr. |Luis L.

ENVOYS Reduction in Forces of Occupation Also Sug- gested in Return for End of Resistance. LONDON, July 21.—(By The Associated Press).—The British note in reply to the German reparations commu- nication has been delivered to the allied ambassadors and all the members of the British cabinet have dispersed to the country for the week-end, It is understood that the French cabinet meets tomorrow. ‘With the British not seeking allied and American views on the reparations igsue safely in the hands of various diplomatic representatives for trans mission to the respective governments there was evident a feeling of reltef and satisfaction in Downing street. The American embassy staff mem- bers were busy today, coding messages for Washington so that the note might be on the state department's desk early Monday. By the end of another week the British expect to have answers from the allied and American governments. ‘The last summaries of the contents of the note crediting thé best inform- ed circles as the sources of informa- tion concur in the essentials with what was learned yesterday. ‘These inelude appointment of an internaticu- al commission of experts to study Germany's Ability to pay; a suggw tion to Germany that in return for cessation of passive resistance Great Britain would request France to per- mit recovery of German industry by reducing to a minimum the forces of occupation in the Ruhr and the Purpose of finally subm{tting the entire reparation problem to a con- ference of plenipotentiaries, who might meet in Brussels. The Daily Telegraph describes as "ihe practical pivot of the British thesis” the note's alleged assent te the suggestion of an international committee made in Germany's June note, Speculating upon the possibility af the faflure of agreement on the text of the note by the allies and the i inter allied crisis that consequentip H would follow, the newspaper says that § the question of evolving a frankly British policy would then come to the front. In such circumstances it thinks that Great Britain would lkely call a conference of her dominion governments all of which are signa- tories to the Versailles treaty. — eS a oe ee ee DETAILS OF NOTE 4 ji ARE UNKNOWN is PARIS, July 2i-By The Asso- olated Press)—The British note on reparations was received at the for eign office today, Knowledge of the note's contents I Umited to a small group of fore; office officials, each of whom prom: {sed Premier Poincare to keep thie information to himself, the premier saying that the French government had given its word of honor to ob: serve absolute secrecy until the Brit+ ish government agreed to the note'y Publication, j Premier Polncare's address at tha | monument ceremonies in Villers-Cot- teret tomorrow will present anew France's attitude on the reparation issue, but as the speech had been written before the British note ar- rived it will be a simple statement-of the French position without regard to the questions raised by the British. | Actual negotations among the allleg will be begun next week as soon ag the French and Belgian premiers have had time to discuss the note with thelr cabinets, The ench cabinet minist ‘8 will probably meet Monday uesday and go over the note with mier Poincare, Afterwards viewd will be ex 1 with Belgium, — NOLW.W.IN | PORT ARTHUR Tex., July 21.4 PORT AR’ (By The Associa ress The inv: sion of, Port Arthur by ¢he I.
