by Arthur Brisbane MONT BLANC IS ADVERTISED LIGHT OF THE MIND THINKING BIG AND SMALL AN ANCIENT DREAD

Francis.H. Sissori, vice president of the Guaranty Trust company, repeats what has often been said here, that the big problem is not production, but distribution. Business, is on the up grade. Mr. Sisson does nut agree with that dis-1 tinguished political economist, Solly I Wertheim, who says, "Business is I looking up, feat ori its back, looking I up.” Mr. Sisson leminds merchants that! with adequate advertising goods can | be sold at lower prices than without advertising. First, have what the people want, th'en let them know you have o. Consider Mount Blanc, nice mountain in Switzerland. I One million and eighty thousand people .visited s|u’nt Blanc last year,, spending more than SIO,UVUi l »uv in little communities near the mountain. Only 100 climbed to the top. We have bigger, better mountains, but they don’t get the advertising Mont Blanc gets, and they don’t take in the money. It is true that established reputation helps Mont’Blac.— It is also true that advertising helps to establish reputations ,and keep them established. There is no better work than distributing good books. They are the light of the mind, stimulate ambition, develop, good taste, prepare men’s minds for se.rvice in the present by making them acquainted with the achievements, discoveries and services of the past. Major George H. Putman, veteran of the Civil- war, and a most distinguished veteran of the book publishing profession, now dead at eightyfive yearn* of age, represents public service in a high degree. New York’s police force includes a “ radical squad” • selected to deal with rebellious radic Ms.. Planning that squad in days of extraordinary prosperity, somebody was looking far ahead. As a rule, prosperity is more effective than poison gas in dealing with radicalism. In the clash between unemployed radicals and police in New York, the photographs show women struggling and fightng more violently than men. Nothing surprising inthis. When women believe anything they believe it more violently . than men. And when they believe, nothing is important compared with their, belief ,and they care little what happens to them. Henry Ford will say in Capper’s magazine for April that "it is just as easv to think big as it is to think email." ’ Il is after you get a start. For instance. in 185|,>, seventy-one 'years ago, John D. Rockefeller, who began working us an office boy for SIS a month, started for himself as a commission man. He began ‘‘thinking big." He had accumulated $17,000 in 1862 and ,took a partner, Maurice B. Clark. They invested their money in a crude oil “refinery* 'in Cleveland. It was the beginning of “thinking Wg" - ' .- ’ ’.. In 1865, Mr. Rockefeller, who is now approaching his ninety-first birthday, and was then twenty-six. bough out his partner for $72,500. Standard oil corporation papers were signed on January 10, 1870. Standard Oil is now sixty years old. John I). Rockfeller has been,“thinking big” ever since. His best “big thinking" has been devoted to the fight against disease Instead of using a few' dollars to relieve the individual cases, he uses tens of millions to eliminate disease pehnanently. Signals to protect pedestrians from automobiles are to be installed in big cities, and “amber colored” lights were suggested. The police say: “Drivers will pay no. attention to anything but red- That makes them stop.” Why is it that red impresses men, and even the lower animals? Is it. perhaps, because men, for forty-mil-lion years, and animals through hundreds of millions of years before man came, have known and inherited one great dread, the red. blaze of a forest or prairie fire? The national industrial conference board tells you that the wealth of the United States amounts to three hundred and sixty billion one hundred million. '' L It sounds a lot, but it is only $3,000 for each American, with about SSOO extra for New Yorkers- That isn’t enough. Human machines alone, leaving out mine*, real estate, factories, are worth more than three hundred land sixty billions. This land and its people are worth whatever science and industry choose to produce—certainly not mere billions, but trillions. _ Taxes may bo bigger.

They Make Cedar Chests—-But Not For Housing Your Clothes

Cedar lumber, from Tennessee, reaches the Wilt Novelty Works in board formation, but a short time spent in the novelty works changes this lumber into so many and varied shapes, that when the cedar leaves again, the resulting articles never recognize themselves as parts of the same board that arrived all together. For a board on its arrivel at the novelty works, is cut into lengths convenient to be worked with, is planed on one side and one end. But this is the last like treatment thaU the lumber gets. It may be a door ’step oi a cedar chest, or a number of other novelties. , The cedar which is to be used in making small chests, to be sold in five and ten cent stores all over the world, is sawed into lengths of the dimensions of the wanted boxes. The smallest cedar chests made are about two inches by four inches. The largest are'about 10 inches long. When the pieces of cedar have

SON OF SYRACUSE WOMAN IN WRECK On their Way back to Ft. Wayne, i last Friday morning, Mr. James Brickel said to Mrs. Brickel, as they passed a spot in the road near Wolf ‘ “There’s been an accident here, see - the glass in the road." '■ / On ‘reaching Fort Wayne, the g home of their daughter and son-in-law, Mr .and Mrs. Ernest Sweet, they learned there had been an accident at that .point in the road ,the night before, and two people killed; and that Mrs. Brickel’s son, John Jones, t there in Ft., Wayne, had been in the t truck struck by the car in which the r people were killed. c And Mr. Brickel discovered that i Mrs. George Unger .wife of the man who was also killed, had been a c friend of himself and family when v he lived in Wolf Lake. e Thursday night, Mr .and Mrs. Un- i ger of Elkhart, had been driving s •the <car owned by R. S. Stryker, to bring Mrs. Stryker home from Fort f Wayne to Elkhart. 3 It seems that Mr. Unger did not I notice the large truck’ and frailer being driven by Mr. Moody, to Fort f Wayn% Mr. Moody was accompan- J ied by John Jones. t The Unger car struck the rear of ' the truck with such force that the t hood of the car passed under the 1 body of the truck and efitire front c end of the cab was smashed backward toward the front seat. 1 Mr.- and Mrs. Unger were so pin- 1 ned in their seats that it required 2(i j minutes work to remove them. They 1 died shortly after being taken to the I hospital in Wolf Lake. ( They are survived by three chil- s dren, Glen, 16. a sophomore in Elk- 1 hart High, school; Robert, 13, arid .1 Phyllis, 11. s —T g »■ t CAKE EATERS BEING > SOUGHT BY SLEUTHS ■ — 3 “We wish to thank Mr. H.

J Upon investigation, it seems ' Mr. Buchholz bought one of the 3 ! cakes auctioned off between dances I at the annual K. of P, banquet. c When he was ready to go home the c 1 cake could not be found. 1 After the dance, several young ‘ people, about 15 in number, “discovered” the cake and enjoyed eating 1 it, with a “here’s to Mr. Buchholz." 1 When queried about the matter e since the party, Mr. Buchholz stated that he is busy seeking out clues with a large magnifying glass; that he has three detectives at work on i the case .and when the guilty parties are found, those who “discovered” the “mis-placed” cake ,are to be tried and sentenced to giving another K. of P. Party. 1 o s PROPERTY’ OWNERS SIGN OIL LEASES 1 ' ?

I If one small chest made, without stopping, the change from being a piece of lumber, into a finished two by four chest, with brass hinges bn it and its title name stamped on the lid, it would surpass any record made by a flivver in evolution.

SENIORS PLAY TO ~ BE FRIDAY NIGHT Since Syracuse is not to play in the sectional tournament in Auburn this' week end, the seniors of the Syracuse High school will give their class play tomorrow night, March 7, in the High school auditorium. The play is given for the purpose of meeting some of the class’s graduation expenses. It. is being coached by Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Barnhart, Mr. Barnhart being class sorThree of the first team basketball players have parts in the play. These are Jarnos Connolly, Ralph Leacock and Harold Shock. The play, "A Pair of Sixes" is a farce in three acts by Edward Pepl'e. The first act is laid in- the offices of the Eureka Digestive Co., of New York city. The second is at the home of Mr. Nettleton, two weeks later ,and the third is in the office oiice more. The cast of characters follows; T. Boggs Johns, meaning James ConnoL ly, and Geo. B. Nettleton, otherwise John Green, are business partners. Dale Sprague takes the part of Krome, their bookkeeper. Cleo Corey acts as Miss Sally Parker, their stenographer. Ralph Leacock is Thomas J. Vanderholt .their lawyer; Harold Shock is Toney Toler, their salesman; Ned Harley is Mr. Applegate; Lawrence Schlecht is the office boy; Maxwell Middleton is the shipping clerk. Irene Shock takes the part of Mrs. George B. Nettleton; Kathryn Stetler, that of Mrs. Florence Cole; arid Mary Jane Hires, that of Coddles ,an English inaid of all work. According to the synopsis of the play, the affairs of the Eureka Digestive Pill Co., went along smoothly until the business partners - became jealous of each other’s claim to the real secret of the success of their business. Mr. Vanderholt, their lawyer, draws an iron-clad contract which disbands the partnership for one year. Both sign, but Johns is humiliated ,and later the tables on Nettleton. Florence Cole, who discovers that Van’s contract is illegal, unites the partners to the consolation of all but- Van and Coddles. The six Senior girls nut in the cast of the play are to give a novelty number, “Romeo and Juliet.” These six are: Velma Fleming, Henrietta Brunjes, Geraldine Click, Verna Hite, Esther Wyatt and Anna Rex. - SPECIAL MEETING OF THE FARM BUREAU Officers of the Turkey Creek Farm Bureau will meet .Saturday, March 8, at 7:30 p. m-, in the library ,to consider special business.
