K.M.IOHTK.M.VO THK WOlll.l). Advertising enllKht.-nB Hie world. It la educational. It can't help hi-inx. Its Job la to tell the public tilings II pays to know. Take talking machine-, for In Ktanee. They didn't mean much In our ll till adverti.nis look hold and Bhowed how they brought new entertainment Into Ihe home. Take automobiles. More I ban half the average man's knowledge of them and what they'll do came straight from the ads. Take kllchen cabinets. Take add ing machines. Take ready-made clothing- Take alarm clocks. Take health foods. Take floor varnishes. Take any modern Improvement of a standard ulllliy. Advertising Introduced them. Ad vertising educated us t them. And the man who didn't know ubout talk ing machines and autos and Ihe rest wouldn't be an educated man. Sometimes advertising Is frankly educational, without trying to sell anything.. In Industrial disputes bolh sides are nndlng that advertising is the surest and easiest method of In forming the public of their views. Public service corporations have edu cated the public in many mailers of conduct through advertising. Lots or applied patriotism has been taught by the advertising route. Old Professor Advertising Is one of the most learned members of the world's faculty. And he has what some professors don't have Ihe happy knack of putting his Ideas across. He is at his best when he turns to a practical question of pointing out the merits of an article that peo ple serve themselves by buying. People are always interested In themselves. Professor Advertising turns this to good account by show ing them how his wares will benefit them. Mome lessons that advertising can teach are big and nalion-wide. No body can spread them broadcast so quickly as Ihe Professor. Some are smaller and slrlclly In cal. The size mnkes no difference. Ad vertising automatically adjusts Itself to the size of Die Job. If you have goods or service that the public ought to know about, let advertising tell the public what ft is and why It is. That's practical education. KATS AHOI'T Til K JAI IMtOM.KM A newspaper that hns IUMh ftym palhy with thn California ut 1 11 ml toward thn JnimncHf puts tin ri"ku in Hiit hi a niHtihel, thus: "Th Jap an oka own one tenth of on prrtnt of the land th.'y ctillivatn In Califor nia. The land they rultlvutn in 1.6 percent of Hit farming laml of tht Btale. Th farming land of th Rial 1h on-rounh or im Htatw a acreage. I-eCs not go to war." It la a very clever Htutement. AMHinnfng that the fartn art approximately correct. It puta thn Calirornianit In thn light of making a great ado about aliimat nothing. Another fact much referr ed to at prcHent, 1b that the Jap anese In California, an hJiowii hy the hint ceiiRiin ffgureK, are only about two percent of the Htatf's popula tion. Thus the Yellow problem of the Far West dwindle) in Importance compared with the black problem of thn until h. Yet when nil thirt'ls tuilil, thn matter 1 not net tied. For the blggeM fact of all la overlooked namely, the way ihe Americana In California feel about It. There are two kfmln of facta. ntatlatlcnl nnd pavchological. A Htute of mind la Just as much fact as a set of figures After all, the modern young girl Is not ao hopelHa as her (led adorn sometimes maintain. When the lead ing girls of a big high school Join in a movement for sensible, stand ardized dresa, and draw to their causes moat of their mates, it begins lo look an if modeaty and good Hnne wore not among the lost arts. The conventional "middy blouse," skirt of comfortable length and fullness, cot ton or wool stockings and broad, low heeled shoes constitute the chofen eosUmie. In addition. nirnDle hair (IreHsing has taken Ihe piuce of more hi ho rule slyles. As there are well toward a thousand glrla In Ihe school ihe effect la one of smartness which the snappleat military corps might envy. The idea ban been adopted en thusiastically by the girls lo whom dreaa Is not a matter of money but of preference, aa well aa by those of moderate means. There Is a similar agitation for suitable coHtume In buslnas circles lliuost everywhere. It seems fairly iHHiiied that before long the young glrla attired for ihe work of the day in filmy waiHta. tight skirts and mad hatter hair will be noticeable for their rarity Instead of their prevalence. In order to get their regular sup ply of Christmas "cheer," Portland and Seattle residents have forwarded checks to Canada aggr gating Ihe stupendous sum of one hundred thousand dollars for liquor. The dis tribution of these conHigninenta will probably keep Ihe federal officials "hopping around" like a bull frog In order to catch the dispenser and consumer. No surprise need be expressed at 'he news that one of the ambassa dors at Washington has felt II nee ssary to order $4,0t)0 worth of whiskey from London. Kverybody knows how many friends a man with ;i private stock has in thla country. A crooked politician is one who believes that somebody can fool all Ihe people all the lime and it's up to him to do it as much of the time us the others will nllow him. TRe proliieers will' be suing Un do Sam for damages one of these days, for the mental anguish (hey all suffered when some of them were nearly put in jail. Damage to business from cancell ed orders for goods is estimated at $i!riu.uH.oiin. Damage to business morale Is more than that. A Keep Your Word Week has been suggested by oiu- of Iho week enthusiasts. Why start It now. Its all most of us have been a bio to keep for several years. Congress is going to set up a bar early next year. Hut don't jump nt any rash conclusions. It's for Immigrants. .Shop early and avoid the rush. Koschurg merchants have (be goods but they're going fast. Many an nmateiir brewer will try lo raise mult next year by pluoUng some In his back van) Wealth isn't everything, of course, as has been Raid bo often, hut then neither Is poverty. A busybody is always in a hurry lo get to a place thai he will be in a hurry o get away from. Seml-coinplaccucy is the root of much failure. Just a little sunshine. Mr. Weatherman.
