Advertising is like learning—a little is a dangerous thing. A French writer said that “the reader of a newspaper does mot see the first insertion of an ordinary advertisement; the seeond insertion he sees but does not read; the third insertion he looks at the price; the fifth insertion he speaks of it to his wife; the sixth insertion he is ready to purchase, and the seventh insertion, he purchases." While that is rather a long way around, advertisements seem to be breaking about even on the sup- | port for the candidates,’ but whatever trend 1 there is seems to be in favor of Roosevelt. | & . The speeches of the candidate on his | western trip have been making an unusually } favorable impression and are winning sup- ort. His excellent physical condition is ; another factor that is winning votes for j him from the ranks of those who were dis- turbed by the stories of his imminent physi- | cal collapse that were sent out by the op- position newspaper writers. These stories, intended to frighten timid. voters, have reacted in favor of the ; Roosevelt eandidacy and other bits of prop- aganda have also reacted in favor of the democratic candidate. It would seem that some of the republican strategy has been | unfortunate. i There is always a disposition on the | part of those who are not satisfied with the indieations of newspaper polls to deride them and dispute their worth, but in past campaigns these poils have reliably in- dicated the trend of public sentiment. This year is no exception and al- though some results of the polls are start- ling and seemingly are in opposition to for- mer election trends, the votes are in accord | with the findings of special investigators | who have made analysis of community sentiment. * In the state of Pennsylvania, for ex- ample, the republican majorities in past presidential elections have ranged from 400,000 to over 1,000,000. Indications that such a state might go democratic this year are laughed at by political mathematicians, yet reports from the interior of Penn- sylvania are to the effect that thousands of former republicans intend to vote the demo- cratic ticket this year. Pennsyl\ inia has elected democratic governors in past years, so a democratic'national victéry under the cireumstances would not be so much of a miracle. But it would be a terrible shock to some folks. THE MACHINE In a recent article, Dr. James S. Thomas, of the Commonwealth and South- ern Corporation, analyzed the machine’s | effect on mankind. Dr. Thomas’ deductions are quite dif- ferent from those of the critics of the ma- chine, who blame it for all the ills of man- kind from the flood to the World war. He shows that it constitutes the basis of our modern economic word—that it has liberated men from arduous tasks, not en- slaved them; that during most of its brief I history, it has created employment, not un- ; employment; that it has cut. down acci- dents, net increased them; that it makes for wealth, comfort and a finer civilization, not a poorer one. During a recent period, in American | history, 1,957,000 people were. displaced | from’ jobs because of increased mechanical | efficiency—and at the same time new} trades and professions, largely resulting from the machine, gave jobs to 2,537,000 | {Happenings Here Just 10 Years ‘more than 1,000 pairs of the shoes} j Sunrise ‘Normal Precipitation .... .17 Ins, 8 record covera 24-hour marion cudimg at 8 o'clock this m Tomorrow's Almanac Sun rises 6:22 a, Sun sets 6:07 p. 1 Moon rises 2 p. ni Moon sets - Tomorrow's Tides ALM.
