"Advertising is the education of
the public as to what you are, where
you are, and what you have to offer
in the way of skill, talent or com

not advertise is the man who has
nothing to offer the world in the

When Conan Doyle was In St. LouL]
on his visit to the United States lie
met some congenial souls—“cinema
men” he says they were—“who would,
I shout 1 imagine io s less dry climate,

“One quaint fellow,” says the cre
ator of Sherlock Holmes, in his book,
“Our Second American Adventure,”
“who had been a Jockey at some perl

and pass on for a fee the pious of the
horse to his fellows.
“When the Information proved
wrong he had to invent excuses to
avoid trouble.
“ ’Yes, sir, your horse wus beat by
six inches, sir. But it really wasn’t
beat at all. It wus Just unfortunate.
Did you see the race, sir?”

Ancestors in Seats
o f H onor at Feasts
Entertaining the spirits of ancestors
and conversing with them is ns real
as an actual affair of this world to
the natives of some of the small Jap
anese villages in the neighborhood of
Tokyo.
Signal flres are kindled by the vil
lagers before the craves of their an
cestors and the spirits Invited to come
home with them to partake of the
feasts spread in their honor. When
the tires go out, torches are lighted
to show the way home for the depart
ed souls. As they walk It is not ut
all unusual for old folk to talk aloud
to the spirits and often these simple
folk point out a mud puddle to their
spirit guests, warning them to be care
ful.
When a family reaches home, n tub
of water Is found at the entrance, in
which the spirits are invited to wash
their feet. At the table, the living
members talk to the spirits, usually
about incidents that took place while
the antestors were alive. The follow
ing night, the spirits are escorted
back to the graveyard and bidden fare
well until the following year.
-On the Square
People who sit in the grandstand or
staud near a race track In any posi
tion other than directly opposite the
Judges’ box should not question the
decisions of the Judges in close races,
because they cannot obtain a proper
view of the horses ns they cross the
finishing line, says Science and Inven
tion Magazine. The Judges are so
placed that they can view the horses
directly In line as they finish, whereas
spe< tators on either side of the finish
ing point obtain n misleading picture
because of the effects of perspective.
If, for instance, two horses finish
neck and neck, people watching them
from a point ahead of them will think
the horse nearest the railing has won.
On the other hand, spectators viewing
the horses from (he rear are likely
to swear that the one farthest from
the rail Is In the lead. Only the
Judges can determine a winner ac
curately If the race Is very close at
the end.
