tf LHcifJgmataPrkx NiW YORK, Sept. Five year olJ Margie Axton kept the police phones and wires busy the other day for two solid hours Just because she was o agreeable. Policeman Donlla saw her wandering- aimlessly across the street from the station and decided ehe was lost. He walked across and questioned her and thou took her over to the station. "Did you coma from a long- ways off some where?" he asked "yes." aid Margie. "Did tranecrs bringr you?" "Ye.," she agreed affaln. The police hurriedly sent descriptions of the child to nearby town For two hours, they tried to solve the mystery of her disappearance. Then the phone rang and a woman said she was the child's mother and would hurry right over. She was Mrs. James Axton. Tho police tried to explain that the child was kidnapped. "Kidnapped:" sho exclaimed. "Heavens, we livo rigrht around the corner, ov.ly three doors away" "Why, litt'o slrl," reproached Officer Donlin, "Why did yo'i tell us all that?" "Mother always toJd me to be nice to policemen." she replied, "so I f'iin't want to say, 'no,' when you ct keel roe thing's." Z:i ni- accounts from time to time t have told of a young man. who Nays and works about the city to my great amusement. lies the one . ho hired two apartments in order to keep three dogs." He is as old as the ages, and as voung as a. butterfly, and I have selected him to be the fnly member of my news staff. 1 shll call him, Ernest Aimless. He is in the habit of ibuylng newspapers and magazines from a woman ips dealer at Madison avenue and Korty-secomi street. Xow of all Kpots in the world that is one where human faith would hold least. In the direct path to the Grand Central Station there are probably more confidence people and fakirs crossing this point than any othr cross road we have. Yet he went up to this toed merchant woman and told her that he wished a thirty-five cent magazine, but didn't have any money with him to pay for it. Not only did she give it to him. but inquired as follows: "Do you need any money? How are you goina: out tonight? Here take romething to have in your pockets," To indicate the volume of her, generosity, Ernest said she produced the most tempting roll of hills he had even seen. And yet some people think they are poor. There must be a protecting and maybe a romantic "guide" directing the life of Miss Bertha Barnes, 247 East Fifty-seventh street. The other night she leaned too far out of her window, screamed and fell straight into the arms of Oliver K. Huber, who was passing by. He had beard the young woman scream, braced himself and caught her. They were shaken tip a bit but neither of them hurt. We have another Instance of a woman forsaking society for the stage. This ' time it is Miss Isabel Townsend Pell, a recent debutante, prominent !n Xewport and Westbury as well as New York. Her first appearance is in "Fools Errant.' just opened, and hopefully enough, she has not tried to do more than one should in going into this very delicate end of theatricals. She is content with the part of a maid, and says he doesn't mind staying with such parts for ten years, it necessary to get hold of the technic of her job. The audience, the opening night of the performance, wag more than usually socially representative, to bid her welcome. It's goinsr a little too far to tempt our august bfnch with bargains. I have told how you can buy a mink stoll from .a peddler on the street for what seems to be one-twentieth of its value. The trouble Is. it generally turns out to be more stolen .than mink. But never have these vendors gone into tha. very halls of justice to put out their goods, until the other day, whe.i one of them approached no less than Judge Alfred J. Talley of the general sessions. When the judge recovered from his surprise, hes pretended to l,e very covert in the negotiations, and took the salesman into one of ,'" inner sanotums of his chambers, and confronted him with a detective. Luckily for the vendor he I ad a bill of sale for his goods, but .the judge discovered in his examination, that it is a common practice , for legitimate fur salesmen to hire trucks, overalls, and thus masquerading as jobbers, fool the passersby into thinking he is pickin up a bargain direct from the Hudson Bay district. .H'CY JEANNE PRICE.

CROWN POINT 1 1

The alert business man dealing with present day conditions knows that the big word today is "Turnover." Whether he be a merchant, manufacturer, jobber, or banker, he sees that one thing with a clear vision unbiased by the limits of his own business. It is in the air, and on the tip of every tongue. And yet many of them entirely too many are thinking on only one side of Turnover. They think of it as meaning rapid selling putting money in and getting it out quickly and at a profit They realize that they must put greatly increased efforts back of all their plans for selling and distribution. The other half of Turnover is the consumer. All selling plans and efforts fail if the consumer doesn't want to buy. His desire for the product must be created. He must meet the seller half way. He must be in a mood to buy before the talesman meets him across the counter.

That is the function of Advertising to create consumer demand and consumer preference. With this demand as a fact all selling plans have a chance to succeed. Without it they fail. The only chance for salesmanship to succeed without an existing demand i3 .for salesmanship to assume the task that belongs to advertising the task of creating demand. If the present efforts that are being put into selling were amply supported by a corresponding effort to create consumer demand through Advertising, the business conditions of this country would be rapidly changed into an era of great prosperity in spite of Old World conditions and everything else. The proof of this is in the fact that right now, under these very conditions, the manufacturers who are putting proper emphasis on creating a demand for their product, as well as selling it, are doing a big business and are actually getting the high turnover that others are trying so strenuously to get through intensive selling.

The men affected by the impending strike include able seamen, lookouts, wheelmen, watchmen and deck hands.
