Not More Than 500 San Francisco People Accepting Aid. That the percentage of needy dwell ers at the various permanent camps in the city Is exceedingly small Is demonstrated by the fact that wher ever the food kitchens have been or dered closed, and information circu lated that the needy would be cared for at the Speedway, only a few per sons have applied to be transported to the latter camp, says Progress, the Southern Pacific Bulletin of San Francisco. With the closing of the kitchens at Duboce Park and Washington Square, out of the 270 Individuals who had been fed at the restaurant, only seven applied for shelter at the Speedway. Rudolph Spreckels, chairman of camps, said yesterday: "It only goes to show that the edict ordering the discontinuance of kitchens was Justi fied, and I firmly believe that when all the restaurants have been closed it will be found that Ingleside will be more than ample to accommodate all In need of help. We will then make the Speedway one of the self-support- ing camps. "According to the plans of remod eling the Ingleside buildings we shall be able to care for something like 3 BOO refugees, but my present opinion Is that not more than 600 will want our aid."

OW OFTEN you hear one of your mer chants make the remark: "People don't read advertisements," "I never get any results from advertisements.," "I don't think it pays to advertise" and similar remarks, when, in fact it is the advertisers' fault and not the advertise ments. So many advertisers try and talk of too many subjects at one time thus making none of them forceful enough to impress the reader; pay no attention to the proposition the advertisement presents ; are not explanatory enough to even interest the prospective buyer; do not live up to their advertisements, which creates distrust, or try and crowd a half-page into 10 inches causing elderly people and those with weak eyes to pass them over without notice. Good advertisements are like good salesmen, because they explain to the prospective buyer the points of the article of which he knows nothing; this alone makes many a sale. But the advertiser ment goes so much furtherit enters the home of and is read by thousands, while the salesman is talking to one person. If a party enters your store to examine an article ou carry, and by your talk and price vou sell lim the article, then that talk and price would make a good ad. for you if inserted in the paper, for it may influence many as it influenced the onebut be sure and select a good live paper for your medium.
