The lib erty loan drives during the war showed what marvelous successes could be achieved by hammering on one proposition day after day. The same results can be secured in the advertising field. They are particularly remarkable in cases where some one article or line of articles is picked out, with the effort to get people to think ing arid talking about that one thing. A remarkable instance of how an advertising drive can push a line of goods is given in Printers' Ink, in a story telling how the Springfield (Mass.) Gaslight company promoted the sale of tank water heaters. This company recently launched a 30 days cam paign to sell these heaters. As a result 1070 heaters were in stalled in that brief period. ' The principal force behind this campaign was advertising in three newspapers of the city. An advertisement was tun each day in some one of the newspapers, featuring the main points of 11. .1 - . . . U .' I, tii.J..A fnn i e 1 o 11 rt irtn aA Act- ferred payments beginning 30 days after installation. Such an instance goes to show that when you present a series of well written advertisements, giving good reasons why it is for the interest of the public to buy a certain product, people are in fluenced thereby. Constant dropping wears away a stone, and constant repetition of an idea, if good and sufficient reasons are stated, makes people think and act. Most business people would have said in advance that 1070 of these heaters could not be sold in 30 days, even in a city oi 130,000 people. The attainment of this truly remarkable result should suggest to some of the business men of Roseblirg what they could do by a consistent and well thought out plan of pushing some specialty through advertising. ; o TEACHING HONESTY IN TUBLIC SCHOOLS. Htillld ?. ill- The president of the-National Surety company of New York recently addressed a letter to' a list of school superintendents all over the United States, asking them to establish weekly talks in their schools on the subject of honesty, in an effort to convince the children that honesty is the best poley. A good many school au thorities have consented lb "make this arrangemeht. The appeal pointed out the tremendous crime wave that is spreading over the country, and spoke of the necessity of taking steps to counteract it. There are many young people today who have no conception of the necessity of square dealing. No effort has been made to Bhow them honesty pays. They read in the newspapers about the work of bandits and burglars, and sotne of them reach the conclu sion that thieving furnishes a short cut to prosperity. While the schools have almost too many subjects to deal with now, yet they must always be ready to give some time to such a fundamental idea, when the need of emphasizing it Comes up. Honesty is such a fundamental idea. A period of a few months each week, given to talks by the teacher, with instructions to the children to find and recite instances that honesty pays, ought to bo useful in giving the pupils a correct point of view. Such lessons should not be haphazard, or be taken up by a teacher without the right kind of preparation. Some text book should be issued and used giving illustrations that would make the subject interesting to children, with concrete instances out of real life showing that honesty pays. Education is Useless Unless the young person gets these foun dation principles. o The children of any community form a tremendous reserve of energy that can be utilized. For instance, the Martinez, Cali fornia, chamber of commerce recently made large use of child enthusiasm, in a movement to clean up the town and get rid of fences. The city was divided into blocks, with three chairmen to each district, consisting of a mnn, a woman, and a Coy Scout. The chairmen selected two captains for each district, one a boy !nnd one a girl. Each of these block captains then organized a team of boys and girls to do the work. Then the block captains distributed literature to everyone in their respective districts, urging them to trim shrubbery, burn the grass on vacant lots, clean up rubbish, tear down or whitewash old fences, etc. A mo tion picture theater party was given to 800 children, the tickets!"'"1 H"' ,"'r ) work i iiim." being given only to those who had clean! up their homes.

The Eosebu National Bank Roseburg, Ore Yankees Look Good For the 1922 Pennant V.y HENTIY I,. FAItRELL (United Press Staff Correspondent.) NEW YORK. Jan. 5. If Ban Johnson asked waivers on the Ameri can League pennant, tt probably would go to the New York Yanks. Other club owners around the cir cuit are practicully unanimous in the opinion that the team of Miller Muggins has sewed up the race be fore It Btarts. With a pitching stair consisting of Carl Mays, Waite Hoyt, Joe Bush, Sam Jones, Harry Harper and Lefty O'Doul, it looks like the Giants are out to "do" a Baltimore from the opening day. . Hugging, of course, will be handi capped until May 20 when Babe Ruth and Bob Meusel will get into their first game, but with a pitching stall like that many managers will say that It is a trivial worry about Ruth. Toward the end of the last pen nant race it looked like the St. Louis Browns would be the real rival of the Yanks In 1922 and the club from down the river still looks good, es pecially if Dave Danforth comes through. The Cleveland Indians took a long j shot from the distance. Stuffy Mc- Innls will fill a long felt want at first! base, but his price waB high, as Speaker had to get rid of Elm Smith, the hero of the 1920 work! series and a great outfielder. 1 None of the other clubs look lit, they have a chance to bother tt Yanks. i While New Yorkers are confides that the Yanks will repeat, they it. not as optimistic about the Giant.: The fans who saw the St. Louis Care' making their last dash through U; National League last season knot, thut McGraw has a job on his banc' to repeat.
