MISS BROWN'S AD
Margaret Brown, a Chic-aKo stenogra
pher, wanted a position.
Also there were other stenographers
In Chicago who wanted positions.
Miss Brown's friends suggested ad
vertising. Miss Brown looked over the long col
umns of "Situations Wanted" iir the
newspapers for suggestions. She read
many advertisements like the follow
ing: Situation Wanted. Young girl of twenty-three,
five years" experience, desires
position as stenographer; trustworthy and
rapid: references exchanged. Box X. Y. Z.
Miss Brown shook her head.
To go Into the newspapers like that
was like going into a lottery. There
were so many advertisers, all of them
doubtless as capable as she. How
could she catch the eye and arrest the
attention of the manager looking for
help?.,.. -
Miss Brown wrinkled her forehead,
tried a few times and produced the
following:
Situation Wanted. A brown haired girl
of the name of Brown would like a posi
tion as stenographer with a Arm named
Brown, although others would be consid
ered. Address X 673.
Rather unique, to be sure.
And, the result? .
A great buuch of letters came to the
newspaper office in answer to the ad-,
vertisement of X 673. From these the
girl selected the most promising and
called. The same, day she was en
gaged. The day. following shrewd Miss
Brown was at her desk taking dictation.
And the other girls still advertised.
The teaching of the little story from
real life is plain. Ours is an era of
advertising. . The nearest,quickest road
to publicity is by the way of the news
paper office Nowadays the business
world does not hang out a sign "Ste
nographer Wanted." It goes to the
wanted column.
But-
In advertising originality counts
largely. The thing is in the way you
put it- Whoever devises a new meth
od of publicity, a new style of adver
tising other things being equal, best
secures the attention of the public.
Miss Brown got the idea.
Her ad. was different
And the retelling of her experience,
if it shall lead some bright boy or girl
to thinking along the lines of modern
advertising, will have accomplished its
purpose.
METHODISTS MAY -ALLOW
DANCING
MINNEAPOLIS. May 9. Scores of
memorials are pouring into the Gen
eral Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, now In session
here. Far in the lead is that relating
to the famous "Paragraph 260" of the
church, discipline, which prohibits
dancing, card playing and kindred
amusements. That this section will
be amended at the present session, so
as to leave the question to the "con
science" of the individual member, is
the belief of many delegates.
Another memorial which has ap
peared frequently in the church rec
ords is that changing the name from
"district superintendent" back to that
of "presiding elder." The latter was
in use until the change was made at
Baltimore four years ago.
That there is a suffragist movement
in the church has been shown by a
memorial which asks that women be
licensed to preach. A number of years
ago a rule was adopted forbidding the
ordaining of a woman as minister.
The Safety Match.
"Pop, what is a safety match?"
"The kind which is made in heaven,
my son." pvn-rf-rtn Po?f.
Careless of Her.
"You look annoyed. What's the
matter?"
"Bertha told me a secret the other
day and I can't tell you what it is."
"Why not?"
"I've forgotten it." Pele Mele.
