GES BRT. NEW CHANCE TO VOLATE CAR HEATING LAW Health Commissioner Emerson Writes Prosecutor He Awaits Reinspection. When a plain ordinary citizen vio- lates a provision of the Sanitary Code and is caught at it he ts haled to court In a hurry and the platner and more ordinary he is the more likely is he to step up to the clork’s desk and pay & fine. But @ corporation ts not bound by the laws that apply to plain ordinary oftizens. A corpora- tion has two shots at the Sanitary Code, the same as a dog has the privilege of biting two persons before legal punishment can be inflicted. This amendment to the laws was | eet forth to-day by Health Commis- sioner Emerson in a letter to District Attorney Lewis of Kings County. The District Attorney was not enthusias- tic about Commissioner Emerson's letter and the end is not yet. On Dec. 27 District Attorney Lewis wrote to Commissioner Emerson ask- ing for the reports of the Health De- partment inepectora who inspected three hundred and six B. R.

The reports of the Depart- ment inapectors show that 51 out of 308 cars were unheated within the meaning of the law on a certain di Each cold car constituted a viola. tion of the law. But the Health Commissioner did not send his men out to locate violations of the law. They went out to locate “conditions.” “If the Police Commissioner should report a violation of the law,” com- mented District Attorney Lewis, “and I should ask him to send me the evidence and be should reply that he was going to give the offender another chance to violate the law before tak- ing steps to further prosecution I should probably write a sharp note to the Police Commissioner. I haven't determined what I shall do about the Health Commissioner.” oe Jersey Surgeon Is Il. Dr. William J.

Herald Square Beas. 346th to 3thSe Advertising “Superlatives are danger- ous. They lead toexagger- ation. Please avoid them.” This printed injunction on the desk of every member of AWEYS Advertising Staff constitutes a rule which must be obeyed. Advertising writers are human. Enthusiasm over the quality of an article of merchandise,coupled with the ever. Present desire to tell an impressive and compelling story, is liable to color an advertisement too highly. When this temptation comes, the printed warning acts as a corrective, and the writer gets down to plain facts once more. The old slogan—“THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH”—is used in a MODI- FIED form in all KWEYS advertising. We strive to tell the truth and nothing but the truth, but, for a reason whiclt we will explain, we try NOT to tell the WHOLE TRUTH. We have found in 59 years of department store experi- ence that a PLEASED customer is a more valuable than a merely SATISFIED customer. Here is a distin not generally recognized. When a customer finds that an advertised article is exactly as represented he is SATISFIED. If he finds that it is better than represented he is PLEASED. FOR THIS REASON ALL WRITERS OF ADVERTISING COPY, AT AWEyS, LEAVE SOMETHING UNSAID WHICH MIGHT WITH STRICT PROPRIETY BE SAID IN DETAIL. ING THE SELLING POINTS OF AN ARTICLE. The customer who finds that he is getting more than the advertisement promised becomes a friend, and the good will of a friend is prized beyond immediate profit.
