KNOW YOUR ONIONS
j By Wlckes Wamboldt
One of the pathetic things is to
hear somebody in New York, who
has never been , half a mile from
Broadway trying to impersonate
a cotton-patch darkey. Usually
the impersonator has gotten bis
ideas from an impersonator who
got his ideas from an impersonat
or, anjl not one of these 'imperson
ators has ever come In close con
tact with a colored man except in
a" New . York atmosphere.
An important rule laid down for
the writer Is never to write about
a thing he does not understand;
and a good rule for the imperson
ator is never to impersonate a
character with which he Is not ac
uainted. i
We have all seen shows por
traying the life of some section
of the country where the folks
have distinctive characteristics,
and-there would not be a member
of the company who had ever
studied these people at first hand;
apparently . their only knowledge
Jof the people they were interpretl
I had come from the lines of the
play. Such a portrayal is absurd
to anyone who knows the genuine
goods.. ; , ;
It is hard to understand how
such companies get before the
footlights. Probably the best ex
planation is that the produceo
himself doesn't knqw any better.
Such producers usually lost money.
A man may expect to lose money
when he tries to put over some
thing1 about which he knows noth
ing. -' ' '. ' ''.'
Impersonation is extremely at
tractive Where tho' character Im
personated is interesting and the
impersonation skillfully done. One
can tell whether an impersonation
is faithful or not. iven though one

A City 's Front Door
Strangers Judge Community By Hotels;
Good Facilities Paying Proposition
EDITOR'S NOTE: This i a scries of SO articles on
the problems modern cities are facing anil pu, pro
gress they are vuikino-
BY DON E. MOWRY
Secretary American Community Advertising Association .
A city's hotels are its front door. They are the first
things by which strnngers will, judge the city. Hotels can
help the city and they tan harm it immeasurably.
A city cannot forge ahead without good hotels. And
the construction of new hotels is usually a community
enterprise, with the rank and file of citizeYis investing
most of the needed funds.
CITIES SELL STOCK
Four cities Frederick, Md Syracuse, N. Y., Bed
ford, Ind., and Urbana, 111. found that they needed
hotels. They sold stock aggregating $2,573,400 and
got them. The same thing is now being done in Bridge
port, N. J., Effingham, 111., and Beatrice, Neb.
Dos Moines, la., is a convention city because of its
fine hotel facilities. New dollars are constantly being
brought in because the front door to the city is inviting.
Two conventions held in Des Moines brought nbout
$5,000,000 into the city enough, as one paper remark
ed, to pay for both of Des Moines' new hotels three
times over.
IMPROVE TOWN
Good hotels nlso help to bring the rest of the town
up to par. The North Shore Hotel in Evanston, III., did
a lot to improve the shops on Davis street, for instance.
Hotels also advertise their communities. The Ban
croft of Worcester, Mass.; the Davenport of Spokane,
Wash.; the Mission Inn of Riverside, Calif.; these are a
few cases in point.
