Phone Main 0600 Boterprise Association and United Press Service @ montha 92.7% Newspaper Efficiency in Advertising The supremacy of the newspaper, in comparison with the magazine, as a national advertising medium is being demonstrated in many quarters and being widely com- mented upon, The Seattle Chamber of Commerce, for instance, in oy up the results of its vigorous tourist campaign, that, dollar for dollar, the money it spent in the Newspapers was far more productive of results than was the money spent in magazines. _ The cost per inquiry from Saturday Evening Post, Lit- gd Digest and Outlook advertising averaged $2.21. In ‘ case of other magazines the cost ran up to $5 and ; On the other hand, a Chicago newspaper brought direct at a cost of $2.05 each, and itself answered many er inquiries thru its own tourist bureau. A Los les newspaper’s record was $1.91 per inquiry. Along this line, the current number of Newspaperdom, _ journalistic trade publication, comments: Ing experiences so far this year. In the first six monthe of 1922 tically all of the “big bugs” in the magazine field lost varying : mes of advertising as compared with the first six months of 1921 ‘hese losses varied all the way from 15,000 agate lines to 60,000 lines. Upon first thought tt might occur that the losses are trivial in compart Son with total volume printed, but we must not forget that the average Magazine rate ts decidedly high, and that a loas of 40,000 lines may mt a definite financial loss of from $40,000 to $50,000. When Ge tors is divided into six months, tt Is then ween that the matter ts @onsidered very seftousty by the publishers of the monthiles and na- weeklies, In the meantime, the dally newspapers all over the try are reporting a continuous growth in foreign and local adver . There is a story back of magazine losses and newspaper gaine-~ that story, if written in a few words, would read something like “The newspapers cover every class of consumer market, all the “time and everywhere, while the magazines cover consumer markets Part of the time and never everywhere.” An@ seck the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be away captives, and pray unto the Lord for It: for in the peace shall ye have peace.—Jefemiah xxir Les Angeles pugilist takes his ninth wile. the movie stars do. When in Los Angeles do Poverty, Ignorance and Babies Dr. Hornel Hart of the University of Iowa's child wel- research bureau, presents some startling facts re- ding Iowa's declining birth rate, after a careful survey each of her 99 counties. The index used was the number of children under five irs per 1,000 women, between the ages of 21 and 44. Among the facts developed were the following: 1. The number of children per 1,000 women of child- ing age dropped exactly 40 per cent in Iowa between 0 and 1915. Roughly speaking, there are about twice as many children per 1,000 women of child-bearing age in rural districts as in cities. Rural counties with the largest percentage of farm incy show py oop fecundity than counties with re of owners. Tike Gates contrast appears when the education of an where the opposite conditions exist. notable point the Iowa results run counter to prevalent opinion. This is where they show the th rate among foreign lation is no higher than of native-born population having the same economic educational status. In other words, poor and ignor- natives, just like poor and ignorant foreigners, have Iowa study fully supports similar studies in other showing the birth rate is inversely related to finan- al and educational status—the poorer and more ignorant ing the most children. parenthood among the more prosperous and ent would seem the only way of correcting this one 'y ‘“Becret of long life is work,” says an Llinols centenarian and blasts ® hope ‘The German republic is three years old and sticks everything it gets {ts mouth, Si candidate named Corn lost.
