A THANKLESS CHILD. Henry L. Mencken, an iconoclastic writer who has enjoyed a certain popularity among the intelligentzia of this country, has been rampaging around Europe recently and condemning everything American. In Berlin he is reported to have said that England would fight America within a year over ship subsidies, and on the eve of his return to New York he is quoted as saying: "I have become a monarchist of the fourth dimension since finding the way republics are run." Mencken was hustlng back to a republic to get his new war book in print. He can make more money out of his idiosyncrasies in this country than he can abroad where mental aberration and the bizarre ,are at a discount. And besides, it is so much safer to live in the United States. But Mencken would hardly be missed if he should elect to cast his lot permanently with fourth dimension monarchies of course after he has cleaned up on his book.

And tne surprising ttung is, if indications are a proot, tnat tne money returns tor wortn whue pictures are even better than tor tne unaesiraOie ones, if the customer gets fuii value tor tne article he has bought, he caa make the seller rich even with some enthusiasm. As Bok has pointed out, the customer cannot be sure just what is full value- He does not know what he wants, but inevitably he wants something. To deal with this paradox, of late he is adopting the policy of choosing a man in whom he places the utmost confidence, who will give him this unidentified thing .that he wants but does not ask for. Hays is this man. in the realm of moving pictures- Landis arbitrates over the ethics of baseball! Even the restaurant keepers have chosen a guiding star. These are progressive steps toward reaching an ideal which, though hazy, is none the less real.

WHAT THE PUBLIC WANTS. "The American public always wants something a little better than it asks for," asserts Edward Bok, "and the successful man, in catering to it, is he who follows this golden rule." Following this principle he made the success of one magazine possible to a far greater extent than could have been hoped for. This also is evidently the belief of Will Hays in his policy of motion picture betterment. The

BOOZE AND AUTO WRECKS No newspaper reader who follows the shocking increase in automobile accidents can escape the conviction that a very large proportion is due to liquor in one way or another. The liquor may be in the driver or in the machine which is wrecked or the wrecked machine may be the result of liquor in the car which did the damage. The accident may be a skid or a collision with a post. It may be the result of heedless approach to a railroad or trolley crossing which ends in death or injury, but no matter what form the accident or casualty should make, the amazing thing is that liquor figures in such a high proporion of cases. Many times the newspapers at the moment fail to learn that booze has been a contributing factor in the smash-up, but inquiry shows a surprisingly larger number of automobile misfortunes due to drink. To all motorists and to all pedestrians who use the highways this is a condition that may well cause apprehension. Wife beating, industrial inefficiency, pauperism, crime, are among the causes that prompted this nation to establish prohibition. Reckless autoists provide still another reason. Bad as the situation is, can the melee of auto accidents be conceived if the old grog shops were running as they once were?

Where would we b2 anyway if it weren't for ad ertising? A7 HAT a lot of time advertising saves us! We need something. We see it advertised. And we go straight from where we are now to where the article is sold. Have you ever gone around from place to place seeking for something which you knew existed but which nobody else seemed to know anything about, not even the storekeepers? You have wasted an hour maybe several hours, possibly half a day. You have worn out your patience, and before the end of the quest probably you began to figure that the thing which you- . sought was not, after all, so good as you thought it was, otherwise other people besides yourself would know something about it. V. The manufacturer who advertises, invests his money, therefore, not alone to tell of the merits of his goods but to s3ve 3'ou time. The manufacturer who is willing to pay for advertising space in newspapers or magazines in order to point out to you where his merchandise is sold, so that you may get there quicker and buy it easier, is not going to skimp or cheat in manufacturing it. After going to all the trouble and expense of telling you just where you may find it, he is going to see to it that when you do buy it, it is good enough so that you will buy it again. And in making up your mind about merchandise which is advertised, consider this last thought the manufacturer can well afford to make it as good as it can be made because one sale means hundreds, even thousands of others following naturally and costing him nothing extra.
