The first newspaper was produced
when written accounts of the lrnpe
rial armies of Rome were sent to
the generals commanding In all
parts of the provinces.
In 1566 the first official news
sheets were published tn Venice.
They were written by hand and ex
hibited In public places.
People
paid the small coin of a gazzetta to
read them. Hence the name. The
church opposed tho enterprise, and
Pope Gregory even prosecuted the
editors.
The oldest form of newspaper In
Ringland was In the beginning of
the reign of Jamee II—the so-called
News-Letters, written by band, and
sent by post to subscribers in the
country. In 1700 the first dally pa
per, the Dally Oourant, was Issued.
The oldest of the London dally
papers, the Morning Post, la the old
est of existing morning papers.
Founded In 1772, It was followed
about 1788 by tbe flrat dally evening
paper, the Star.
The Times first appeared In 1788
as a continuation of the Dally Uni
versal Register. Its originator and
owner, Mr. John Walter, succeeded
In 1814 In printing the Times by
steam.
In 1845 the Dally News was
founded, with tbe help of Charles
Dickens. It was the first paper to
lower Its price from six pence to
three pence (twelve to six ;centa).

“My first lie,” said the Psychoan

Nerves of Invalids
Soothed by Pictures
Art is being used successfully in
the treatment of nervous diseases
In a Philadelphia hospital. Pic
tures In proper color, when exhib
ited to patients, have a soothing ef
fect, It has been found. Reds and
other “hot colors” are not used,
since they disturb the nervous sys
tem. In some of the more turbu
lent cnses It has been necessary to
hang the paintings out of reach of
the patients.
The basic Idea is that of the emo
tion being affected by color, so
great care Is exercised tn selecting
the right pictures.
"The colors we find most advan
tageous," said a hospital at
tache. “are the cool ones. These
bring a calming Influence.
For
this reason landscapes, seascapes
and mountain scenes are prefer
able. The wave-wash on a New
England coast, a sunny pastoral
scene, puffy white clouds astride
mountain peaks, all reveal peace,
stillness, rest."

Lower prices on Chrysler imperial “80”—one more
logical and highly important step in the working-out
of Walter P. Chrysler’s four-ear plan of Quality
Standardization.
Lower prices on Chrysler Imperial “80’’—following the
lower price on Chrysler “70” and the astonishing price
accompanying the introduction of the new, lighter
Chrysler six-cylinder “60”—first fine fruits of the
Chrysler plan of creating greater value by group-

the four great quality fields.
Lower prices on Chrysler Imperial “80’’—opening the
gates to the wider market which has been impatiently
waiting to take advantage of the car as fine as money
can build—the car of 80 miles an hour and more—the

tail, the car of incomparable value in the high-class field.

The ancient Queen—with all her jyealth and power and
her horde of faithful slaves—could not command one-
half the luxuries and delicacies that are matters-of-

of modern merchandising methods has enabled every-day
folks to regularly enjfly many good things that even
the most powerful potentate of old could not have ob
