TILLAMOOK, OREGON, FRIDAY, APRIL 20, 1923 ' VOLUME 34; NUMBER 28 BODY OF WM. A. COOK FOUND BY SEARCHERS Aged Man Found To Have Died From Exposure In Attempting Lonely Trip Few Years Ago Tillamook Cheese Was Below Others In Price 1919 SEES THE CHANGE JLecal Product Leads The World Through Organization And Advertising Under the title “Advertising as a Hope and a Reality”, Theodore Mac klin, of the Wisconsin College of Ag riculture, has outlined the success of the Tillamook County Creamery as sociation in marketing its cheese thru the standardization of the product and the liberal use of advertising as a means of creating a demand. The article appeared in the March 30 is sue of Hoard’s Dairyman. The charts used by Mr. Macklin to illustrate the comparisons between Tillamook and Wisconsin products have been obtain ed by the Headlight and accompany thisart icle. Mr. Macklin says:: ■“Dairy farmers are interested in advertising because they expect to secure more money through its use. Just what this word advertising means is not so clear to them. Like everything that has been come to light in the field of human reason and experience, advertising may be good, bad, or indifferent, depending upon the conditions surrounding its use. Too much advertising will cost more than it is worth just as too little will fail to increase the demand enough to cause the bidding of better prices. The wrong kind of advertising as well as advertising of recognizably poor products will either or both de feat the purposse of the buyers of advertising. Like all good things, advertising must be done with judg ment and understanding if it is to bring increased benefits to dairy farmers. "Keen users of advertising have employed advertising successfully as a means of selling only under a series of auitable conditions which they first had to make. These essential condi tions are not to be found except where diligent application of sound understanding and judgment has guid ed the producing, standardizing, and other marketing operations. If dai rymen hope to succeed by imitating what successful business has done they must be shrewd enough to act ually see and act as these successful men have seen and acted. It is there fore well for thoughtful dairymen to carefully examine not only the kind and degree of success attained by thos. who have achieved success thru Slfvertising, but to scrutinize thoro ughly all of the pillars upon which this advertising stood for its support. “Fortunately a very concrete and concijsive illustration exists in the da iry industry of Wis. and Oregon to help clarify the conditions which are so essential to success through use of advertising.

Cook, who left his home in McMinnville, April 3, with the inten tion of walking to Tillamook, was found dead, on a mountain trail about twenty miles from this city. Searching parties had been hunt ing for Mr. Cook for about a week before the body was discovered. The intention of the deceased had been to visit his daughter here, Mrs. J. M. Holden, and when he failed to appear the search was started. When the body was found it was discovered that death had been caus ed by exposure. The unfortunate man had apparently used all his matches and had nothing with which to build a fire. Coroner Henkle and a party brot the body out of the woods and sent it to McMinnville where it was bur ied in the Masonic cemetery. Mr. Cook was 72 years and 6 months old at the time of his death. He leaves besides his widow, four sons, John A. of Tillamook, C. H. of Dayton, Thos. H. of McMinnville, Rodney of Whiteson and two daughters, Mrs. T. T. Potter of McMinnvlle and Mrs. J. M.

SENIOR CLASS PLAY ENTERTAINS CROWD Those who attended the senior class play last Friday evening were loud in their praise of the event. The play was a lively comedy and the cast well selected. The story was woven around the affairs of Bob Denker, an artist, play ed by Noah Richards, who by a ser ies of lies to his relatives had put himself into a bad predicament. Two of his friends, also ex-service men, played by Alfred (jabriel and Wesley 'Pippin attempt to help him out and in doing so get themselves into trou ble. Ruth Gould as the “poor lone widdy” and Mary Lamar as Liz cre ated quite a sensation. Glee Rusk as Aunt Alice, Illa Davidson, as Elaine King, Ixda Smith as Angela Scott, Bruce Austin as Liz’s steady, and Trevor Hare as Uncle Will played their parts well and deserve com mendation. Wesley Tippin’s instruc tions in the art of cake baking were decidedly unique and much appreciat ed by the audience. The proceeds of the evening which amounted to $263.70, will be used for commencement expenses of the class and the remainder will be used to purchase a memorial to be left in the school.
