' Shoel'man.ufactuiei-s are puzzled over the failing- off in
$ales (f!. men's footwear. They, should study the figures
Siiowing. an increase of l.iiOO.OOO itulos this year.
; The htoycincnt to alKiIish punishment in 'Illinois' is en
tirely out of place. All Chicago criminals go insane just
before Uiey come to Ui.u and think of the thrill that would
be lost if there were no longer a hangman's noosu from
tyhich to save them.
' KG STEADFAST RULE.
A critic once said that "an educated poet is almost
always a bad puet; thai scholarship produces critics, not
creators, and encouiugts pendantry rather than passion."
Tha facts sre convincing that the author of the criticism
was a poor judge of good poetry.
Among the university poets are Spencer, Marlowe, Mil
ten, Dryden, Donne, Gray. Jo.d-.imth, Wordsworth, Coler
idge. Scott, Byron, Shelley, Tennyson and Swinburne.
Among the non-university poets were Shakespeare,' Pope,
Cow per, Burns, Blake. Keats and Browning,'
v It ss evident, therefore, that university fining is not
, essential to poesy. But the fact that, such purls .as Vwz
; mid Keats never attended a univeisity dues not prove them
' uneducated. Mr. 0. K. Chalteiton describes Browning as
; "the nuMt educated , uuin that ever livid," but Browning
nrvwlljitteiidcd an institution of' higher learning.
TiiO m.iU who z.::l "an diicated pot't is, almost always
: bad poet'' is no inoie in eimr than the fellows who be
' Iieve that one must k U f!K go to I to edtic.'.tod and th:il
every 'college man is an cducitrd man.

The American As ociation of Adverti:.iii Ai nt is di
couiitging fiee newspaper publicity of the kind that is
devoid of news value and intended only for advertising.
(Abuse by the advertise! s of fiee newspaper space has
(roused the advertising agents to the point of pmtest.
Free publicity for advertisers is objected to principally
on the grounds' that the piivilege if overworked trans
forms the newspaiKM' from a news medium .into a pit pa
ganda o.gaii. i !ii c is little news value in, tl)i$ sort of
propaganda. There should be two distinct depal tiiientr in
the newspaper -one for news and un'- for advertising
end the line .'epaiating the two must Its clear enough to
Ik? readily discerned by the reading public, Free publicity
obliterates the line. "
Abuse of fiee newspaper sp.uv is unfair to the reading
public and often hsuHs in iiiis.eiiie.entaliiiii. Theie is
also always the danger of disci inihiatinn between adver
tisers and their pn d:irt::. It is a game in which tli.
publisher, the public and ihe advertiser all play and none
.wins.
The action of the Ahum ion Ass'K'i-uion of Advertising
Agents is the refection of the attitude long held by the
Jiewsp: per ptib'isliers. The d iiy newspaper can no longer
be called a piop..gand-i sin et hec.iuse of the concert -d
eentiment of ,!ie new spapei-s and the papers, public an 1
rdvertisers have not suffeieci.
