More direct and pos'tive tem-
p?rance worn among foreigners,
on a large scale, is urgent! j need
ed, for th» y are coming to ocr
country a million a year, with
all their foreign ideas about li
quor drinking, and we simply
must reach them with temper
ance ideas and facts, or all (em-
perauce laws in this country will
be jeopardized. They are not
slow to learn the value of Amer
ican citizenship, and an increaa-
ing proportion of them every
year are taking out citizenship
papers and becoming eligible to
vote. They have no idea of oar
labor member of the Liberal
cabinent, said uot^ long ago:
“The fault 1 have to find with
the working classes is the mean
ness of their wants, Gie misery
of their desires, the poverty of
their aims, tastes, and ideals,
fh-y could make a new heaven
and earth for themselves with
the $15,000,000 a week they
waste on drink and various forms
of gambling.”
YOUR BOY V8. LICENSE.
If you vote for license in order
to get the saloon’s revenue to re
duce your taxes, then you should
be willing for your boy to pat
ronize the saloon, for the saloons
cannot ran without boys any
more than a saw mill can ran
without logs. If to get the sa
loon’s revenue, yon vote for
license, will yon contribute a
boy to keep them running?
Would you rather pay your tax

ABOUT ADVERTISING—NO. 2
The Dollar That Can’t
Be Spent
By Herbert Kaufman
Every dollar spent in advertising is not
only a seed dollar which growj a profit for the
merchant but is actually retained by him even
after he has paid it to the publisher.
Advertising creates a good will worth the
cost of the publicity.
It actually costs nothing. While it uses
funds it does not use them up. It helps the
founder of a business to grow rich and at the
same time keeps his business from not dying
when he does.
It eliminates the personal equation. It per
petuates confidence in the store and makes it
possible for a merchant to withdraw from busi
ness without having the profits of the business
withdrawn from him. It changes a name to
an institution—an institution that will survive
after the death of its builder.
It is really an insurance policy which costs
nothing—pays a premium each year instead of
calling for one, and renders it possible to
change the entire personnel of a business
without disturbing its prosperity.
Advertising renders the business stronger
than the man—independent of his presence. It
permanentizes systems of merchandising, the
track of which is left for others to follow.
A business which is not advertised must
rely upon the personality of its proprietor, and
personality in business is a decreasing factor.
.The public does not want to know the man who
owns the store—it isn't interested in him, but
in his goods. When an unadvertised business
is sold it is only worth as much as its stock of
goods and fixtures. There is no good will to
be paid for—it does not exist—it has not been
created. The name over the door means noth
ing except to the limited stream ot people
from the immediate neighborhood, any of
whom could tell you more about some store
ten miles away which has regularly delivered
its shop news to their breakfast tables.
It is as jhortsighted for a man to build a
business which dies with his death ot ceases
with his inaction as it is unfair for him not
to provide for the continuance of its income to
his family.
