I POWER OF ADVERTISING. Some weeks ago the Manufacturers' Record pointed out as one of the indications of increasing appreciation ' on the part of the public of the power of advertising, the fact that the Home Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention was using thirty or more of the leading daily papers of the south, and also the Manufacturers' Record, in an advertising appeal for contributions to its home mission work throughout the south and southwest. At that time we expressed our interest in the matter as indicative of the power of publicity wisely directed and expressed the thought that it would be interesting to know the result of the campaign. Rev. Victor I. Masters, superintendent of publicity of the Home Mission Board, in a letter to the Manufactur ers Record, says: “The utterances from laymen and ministers encourage us to believe that our advertising program has been tremendously influential. One state Baptist secretary has said that it was the thing that put home missions across in such great shape. Here are the facts: “On top of an increase over past , records for the year 1917-1918 of $200,000 we have gone forward this | year by $313,333 over last year. Our . receipts are $1,207,480, while last year they were $694,147. The increase is slightly over 45 per cent. “All reports we have from our people 1 have seen, both ministers and laymen, have been favorable to our enlarged advertising program. The financial achievements for the year have been almost marvelous, considering everything, and other results have been equally as great.”—Manufacturers Record. o THE DARLING OF PARIS There are numerous exciting scenes in the drama of “The Darling of Paris”. There is one particularly impressive scene where Esmaraldo and others are being taught the art of picking pockets. The instructors are what would be known in Paris today as the Apaches. The Gypsy girl is well instructed in the elementary stages of crime, but her nature revolts when she is in a position to act for herself. See it at the Rex tonight. n WERE DEFEATED The Invincible*, one of the fastest baseball teams xrf the city were met and defeated by the. fast St. Joe team to the tune of 11 to 5. The game started off with the St. Joe nine in the lead by’ one point. The Invincible* soon took the lead and ran up a score of 5 to 3. Neither side scored until the first of the 7th inning when the St. Joe team ran up a score of 11 to 5. Archbold, the St. Joe catcher, played a good game, only he could not get the ball down to second base. The Invincible® will meet the fast Bth grade team next Sunday.—Contribut-i ed by Manager of Invincible®. NOTICE There will be a meeting of farmers and milk producers at St. John’s school house, Thursday, May 22, at 8 o'clock. The Fort Wayne Milk Commission will be present and an interesting discussion on cooperation for mutual benefit will be led by the com- ' mission. All those interested in this ' particular line of work are urgently ■ requested to be present. J R. MEEKS
