PREACHER ON ADVERTISING.
A certain double-page advertisement costs chewing gum
manufacturers $11,000, Rev. George F. Schmidt of New York, told
the thirteenth international convention of the Walther league, an
association of young people's societies of the Evangelical Lutheran
Synodical conference in an address recommending church adver
tising. "To regain the mere investment he must sell 2,200,000
sticks of gum, and a million people must chew gum for a day to
pay for it," he continued, "Certainly advertising must pay. Why,
then, should we not do the same in a dignified way, and advertise
the goods of the product we have to sell, salvation and personal
peace, the bread of heaven, the water of life, the sweet and blessed
balm of Gilead.
"It may startle some to think of 'selling salvation, but after
all that is what everv nreacher and personal worker docs. To
sell the product of your church, as much active work is needed
as to sell the product of anv factory in your community. Too
many churches establish their 'factory,' wait for 'customers,' and
make no effort to distribute their products.
"There are about 40,000,000 men and women above 10 years
of age in the land who are outside the pale of the church. What
can we do to reach them?
"People who scoff at advertising the church and Christianity
should remember that four of the greatest men to whom the found
ing of Christianity was largely left were reporters and advertis
ers. ' They wrote the Gospels."

PROTEST VIOLATION BY RAILROADS.
While observing carefully the terms of their agreements, the
rail way brotherhoods are protesting to the Interstate Commerce
Commission against the action of certain railroads affected by the
strike in compelling train service employes to take out engines
which are dangerously unsafe, jeopardizing the lives of the em
ployes as well as the traveling public. Because of the shopmen's
strike, the general yardmaster of the Kansas City terminal has
just posted notices requiring engineers to move trains over con
gested and foreign tracks without air being coupled for the op
eration of air brakes. On other lines headlights are out of repair,
engine flues are leaking, injectors fail to work, water glasses are
broken, and other defects are unrepaired which endanger the lives
of the employes as well as the public.
' The rules of the Interstate Commerce Commission forbid the
operation of engines in such condition, and the brotherhood chiefs
have appealed directly to the bureau of safety and the bureau of
locomotive inspection maintained by the commission to see that
these practices are immediately stopped. In extreme cases, the
transportation brotherhood executives have themselves taken the
initiative and authorized their men to refuse to operate trains un
der conditions which obviously imperil life and limb.
o
Mrs. Clara Phillips, the Los Angeles hammer slayer, has en
tered a plea of not guilty to the charge of murdering the woman
she alleged was winning the love of her husband. This calls for
a loifg, drawn-out trial in which the family skeleton will be brought
cojispieuously into the limelight and a long list of technicalities,
from a law standpoint .injected into the case. It is quite possible
the murderess will be found guilty in the end and a sympathetic
jury will make the sentence as light as possible in order to "meet
the demands of justice."

The stale editors meet at Corvallis Friday and Saturday of
this week. On Sunday the "bunch" will go over to Newport to
mingle with the mermaids, crabs, lobsters, sea gulls and dam
diggers, after which they will throw a piece of kelp around their
nerks and visit the Indian reservation. Some day, for the editors,
we would say.
.Because his aged mother refused to give him money to spend
on "flappers and bright lights," a 20 year old Portland boy gave
liislieepor a severe beating, resulting in placing the little "home
jKt" on the rock pile for six months, lie should have been given
the "hammer test," applied to his empty dome.

,As wc approach the month of August the one month in

weather man puts on the soft pedal and starts to deal out some

It takes more than a slogan to build
a town.
Here lie the bones of Ambrose Jones,
A guy of vast conceit;
The stupid cuss had a brand new bus,
But his head was pure concrete.
He went on the road, with a bootleg
load,
Filled till ho couldn't see;
He stepped on the gas, and it came
to pass,
A swerve a skid and a tree.

the old time family life is families.
THE TELEPHONE.
I am a telephone, when I am not
broke I am in the hands of a receiver.
I have a mouthpiece, but, unlike wom
en, I never use it. Fellows use me to
make dates with girls, and girls use
me to break said dates. Husbands
call up their wives over me, and wives
call their husbanrls down over me. I
never go anywhere, but sometimes
the company comes and takes me out;
it all deoends on whether you pay your
Dills or not. I am not a bee, but I
often buzz In your ear. I am the bell
of the town; and, while I do not wear
jewelry, I often get rings. Whether
I do things or not, a lot of people
nail me to the wall; and I like music.
but the only music I qet Is chin music.
I get all the popular airs, and the
most popular one is hot air.
The number of square people, not
the number of square miles, makes a
country great.

"One piece hathin- suits don't give
a feller a thrill like they uster."
Mr Merchant
Do y0u realize the importance of getting your ad
vertising copy prepared early?
You know our old friend procrastination. He's a
cousin to the cow's tail.
Why follow, when you can lead?
Supposing all your customers left their shopping in your
store until an hour before you were closing up at night,
what would happen? You know. It would make great
confusion, you couldn't give service and your customers
would le-ive the store dissatisfied.
Well, in a way, that's what you often ask the news
papers to do. You wait until fhe ninth hour to prepare
your copy, and when it reaches the office you expect the
compositors to do two hours' work in one.
It can't bedone.
The result is that your advertisement is slapped to
gether in great haste, with a chance for errors and with
out proper display. It can't be otherwise.
Stop tliat old habit of putting off till the last day, the
last hour and the last minute to send your copy to the
newspaper office.
Get it cut early when you have time to think and
prepare it properly. Then send it to the newspaper
office two or three days ahead. That will give the news
paper time to prepare your advertisement properly.
You can see the logic of it. It will mean better ads,
better service and Letter results.
That's what you want. That's why you advertise.
Give the newspaper a chance.
Apply the Golden Rule.
