Free Publicity Here is a Canadian contribution to the free publicity symposium : "The plan we follow in the Montreal Daily Star, is to refer all requests for free reading matter to the Editor to be dealt with according to his judgment strictly on their news value merit, and if he should find nothing along those lines the matter is usually consigned to the waste-paper basket. "This practice is consistently followed, and we believe that if publishers adopted the method generally, it would have a marked effect on the free reader abuse. Montreal Daily Star, W. S. Marson."

Campaign for School Attendance The United States Bureau of Education is appealing to the nation to help regularity of school attendance. The importance of adequate schooling for the yiung is set out in the appended bulletin: Labor unions, parent-teacher associations, women's clubs, churches and other religious bodies, and many other organizations directly concerned with education have been enlisted by the United States Bureau of Education in a campaign for the maintenance of school efficiency as a special patriotic duty this year. In his appeal Dr. Claxton, Commissioner of Education, points out the existing fear lest public schools shall suffer because of conditions growing out of the entrance of the United States into the war. He emphasizes the fact that as a measure of present defense and for the future welfare of the country, as well

as for the individual benefit of the children, it is of the greatest importance that the schools be maintained in the highest standards of efficiency. Especially important, in the view of the Commissioner, is prompt and regular attendance at school and "proper employment during out-of-school hours. These, the Commissioner, believes, will be the children's surest protection against temptations to juvenile delinquenciese.

are especially appealed to to now in high school to complete

their work. Superintendents of schools have been asked to co-operate with the representatives of labor unions in their communities in the efforts to keep children in school.

How America Can Help Mexico Perhaps the task of advancing Mexico to the European level is too severe for the minority who must do the work. It has proved so in the past in respect of commerce and industry. A farsighted policy would encourage immigration and the further infusion of European ideals and energy into the tranquillity of the peon mind and temperament. But force will not civilize Mexico. It has attempted the task for four hundred years and failed. - America can help enormously by patient cooperation. There is no real basis for the belief that America is generally disliked in Mexico. It has not been well represented, and historically American contact with Mexican affairs has not been promotive of kindly feeling. But wise business policy and a policy of co-operation and understanding in Washington will make America the natural source of Mexican advancement. Already kindly feelings exist because of the patience of President Wilson in dealing with a country thrown into confusion and led into excesses by incessant warfare. The path ahead of the Mexican Government is neither bright nor smooth. The government has found the path and has set out on its way. That is a considerable achievement. A multitude of obstacles and problems will beset it and are now giving it trouble. Help in meeting and overcoming them, and continued patience and perseverance on the part of all concerned, will bring prosperity and enlightenment to Mexico for which all its travail and chastening must assuredly have been in preparation. From "The Present State of Mexico," in the American Review of Reviews.

Let's "right about face" and look the ntotor car price situation square in the eye. Costs of labor and material are bound to rise again before long. The minute they rise up will go the retail price of motor cars. So buy your Saxon "Six" now at once! Today its price of $935 isihe lowest it will probably be for a long time to come for several years perhaps. Make your buy now before the rise comes. Among cars costing from $800 to $1150 Saxon "Six" at $935 is the one great, outstanding value. It offers beauty, quality, and performance in a measure that cannot be duplicated by cars within $200 or $300 of its price. Look how it compares with these three cars priced at $4,S00, $3,000 and $1,250 respectively.

Feminity has invaded the oil business. Under the leadership of Mrs. H. H. Honore, Jr., of Chicago, president of the "Women's Oil Company of America," a band of women are successfully conducting the affairs of a large oil producing corporation. The women incorporated the company In 1915 with a capital of $750,000 and have leases on thousands of acres of oil land in Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas and Louisiana. In less than two. years they have drilled fifteen wells in the Cherryvale, Kansas, district alone. Of this number thirteen" have been producers. None but women are interested in the company, which has already proved to be a big factor in oil competition.

Then the representatives of her grandfather, a stern English lord who cast off his son for marrying beneath him, find her and take her to England. She is unhappy there for a time because her grandfather who hates women, makes her dress like a boy. But finally she makes a discovery which causes her A

THOUGHTS TO THINK ABOUT No man can hope to better himself unless he is willing to help others; moral strength Increases through self-sacrifice. Indifference to the griefs of others makes a difference In the joys that might come to you; without heavenly sympathy, there will be for you but little heavenly Joy. . If you excuse yourself for the wrong you do, It will be hard for you to see the right that others do; the excuse of self often causes the abuse of others. The man that really- wants a thing will use Palladium classified advertising to get what he wants. He will not hesitate to make use of the Want Ad columns to tell Richmond people that he is ready to buy what he wants. A Relishing Drink A Healthful Drink A Satisfying Drink Always Ready

nothing else could prove that Saxon "Six" is a quality car. And it is a six-cylinder car. That means much to you. For the buyer who selects a "four" deliberately deprives himself of just so much smoothness of power-flow, just so much flexibility, just so much quietness, and likewise gets a car that will not stand up so long. There's a good deal more we would like to tell you a good deal more proof we can give that shows the wisdom of buying Saxon "Six" at $935 rather than paying $200 or $300 more. Take the big price-saving chance. Come in and see Saxon "Six" and place your order. Price now is $935 f. o. b. Detroit. Saxon "Six" Sedan $1395; Saxon "Six" Chummy Roadster $935; Saxon Roadster $395.
