MANY THOUSAND INVESTORS
DO IT NOW.
The time <o advert'**- is aiways
present, but never more importantly
so than when business is dull; but
it seems difficult to make the aver-
age advertiser understand the fact.
It took a long time to teach business
the value of advertising. The next
process in education will be that ad-
vertising is more of a necessity in
dull times than it is when trade is
god.
There are conspicuously successful
advertisers who never curtail their
appropriations in slack times. The
policy costs money and may create
losses during a considerable period,
but it places the advertiser in a
wonderful position to reap a harvest
when business turns good again. He
has kept himself before the public,
while some of his competitors have
been forgotten.I Many concerns have
lost the benefit of their good-times
publicity by stopping their advertis-
ing during dull times.—The Mem-
phis News.

THE 41ST LEGISLATURE
The personnel of the house of rep-
resentatives was composed of seven
preachers, a few farmers, a few bus-
iness men and large majority of law-
yers. When they came together they
were much out of sorts on account
of the way the general election went
on the 6th of November. They were
mad at the preachers on account of
the part they played in
election.
A bill was offered to
lawful for preachers to
in Texas. This bill was
but it showed a bad spirit and an un-
wise movement. A bill was offered
to make it unlawful for women to
wear shoes with heels over one inch
high. This little bill died a-b->rnin’
in the committee; but it shows how
unwise some men are.
Halt Race Bill
A large sum of money was spent
trying to pass a horse racing bill;
but this bill was consigned to the
waste-basket. A bill was passed by
both houses to bar all the Hoover
Democrats from the Democratic pri-
mary. General Dan’s blue pencil
put the fixin’s on this spite bill.
These Lilliputian legislators made
large appropriations for various
things and much of it was vetoed by
the governor.

The way to get that trade is to imi-

trade has been thus drawn by adver-
tising. And advertising in the home

attractive as the distant ones.—The

doubt that it is one of the best de-
vices for softening and removing
the impurities from water that I
have seen. It renders the water so
[ much better and purer for all pur-
poses and especially for drinking, re-
moving the alkali, etc., and making
it finer for drinking purposes, and
especially for any one with stomach
or kidney trouble. The water after
passing through the instrument is
suitable for washing or any purpose,
and I think that people who have al-

When the ships of the Byrd Ant-
artic Expedition arrive in the United
States in June, one of the m .st in-j
teresting members will be Seat
Scout Paul A. Siple, of Erie, Pa.,
who has won highest commendation,
from Admiral Byrd for the work he
has done since the expedition left
! New York nearly two years ago.
' Information to this effect was con-
tained in a letter received by Scout
Executive D. T. Jennings from the
National Scout offices in New York.
Sea Scout Siple who is an Eagle
j Scout, the highest rank which a
| Scout may obtain, was selected from
among thousands <f Boy Scouts at
the invitation of the Commander

sailed away from New York on Au-
gust 25, 1928, the most envied boy
(in America, with a man-sized job to
i fill on one <f the greatest explora-
