Wrigley and the Engine Many retailers have stocked merchandise that was supposed to sell because of a flurry of adver tising to appear in local papers. The following story recently told of William Wrigley illustrates the continual effort necessary to keep goods before the public. While riding on a train Mr. Wrigley was told by a friend that his product was so widely known he was wasting money by continually advertising. “If the engine were to be cut off from this train what would happen?” asked Mr. Wrigley. “The train would coast for a while and then come to a stop.” “Exactly,” said Mr. Wrigley. “And if I should cut off advertising my business would coast for a while and then stop.” Don’t coast -- Speed Up Advertise ! ± A Man and His Dog Against the World SILENT ACCUSER with ELEANOR BOARDMAN Regular Prices OUR GANG in “The Sun Down Limited” Pathe News as the girl who posed as a boy in the dangerous dives of the Argentine to help clear her sweetheart of erime. PETER THE GREAT RAYMOND McKEE as the secret service dog as the fugitive IT’S A WOW SCIENCE ilil j HAS SHOP FACILITIES | Special Apparatus Forms Made By Mechanic The chemistry laboratory depart ment now has its own shop in which i apparatus can be made and recon | structed. The department has own ; ed certain shop tools for a number [of years but only within the last ;year has it been possible to secure the service of a full time mechanic to do shop work. Much of the apparatus used in science laboratories is expensive and can be made on the campus with a considerable saving of laboratory j funds, explained Professor O. F. j Stafford. Special forms of appar ; atus also have to be constructed in j the process of research work, as j often alterations and reconstruc tions are required which make shelf j facilities very necessary. In the large institutions, such as the University of California, each laboratory department has its own shop with sometimes several me chanics employed. Professor Stod dard believes the installations of such a shop in the chemistry de partment is one indication that the University of Oregon is moving into j the class of real universities as it shows that the time has come when research interests here demand the same kind of resources as are found in large research institutions. Heretofore, the members of the chemistry staff have been obliged to do the best they could themselves with the tools at hand. Professor Stafford stated, and he finds it gratifying that the mechanics em ployed here is finding really much more demand for his services than he alone can supply.
