MOTHERS' PENSIONS
Honor to Judge Henry Noil, who in February, 1911, secured the
Adoption by the Illinois legislature of the first mothers' pension law.
Now twenty-five Rtates, more than half of the nation, pay pensions to
dependent mothers.
The principle of the mothers' pension law is that all of the people
.are responsible for children who for any reason whatever are with
out proper support. In practical operation the results are that child
ren are reared in their own homes, child poverty is abolished, some
forms of crime are decreased and taxes are actually reduced, notwith
standing the amount paid dependent mothers.
''"The states which now give mothers' pensions will find it a
Hreat economy to taxpayers, the greatest humanitarian plan so fat
proposed and the" most effective means of building up the rising gen
eration and preventing the production of sickly or criminal citizens,"
aid Judge Neil. "The greatest danger to a nation is child-poverty
end its results. The greatest asset -to a nation is healthy, normal
children, raised in their own homes by their own mothers."
The Herald is heartily in favor of mothers' pensions, but why
pauperize a mother in order to give her the benefit of it! Mothers'

HONEST ADVERTISING
In advocating and practicing honesty in advertising, The Herald
lias b een in line with the trend of leading business men in recent
yearn. The ordinary newspaper may not always be able to guarantee
ita advertising, but the publisher that cannot, or will not, use a rea
sonable degree of caution to protect his readers from" unscrupulous
advertise, ought to cut out the advertising part of his business.
Two things are kept constantly in view by this paper in the selec
tion of advertisers and advertising: First, to advertise for those per
, song and firms that we believe will give the readers of the paper a
"titiuare deal." Sconml tn nlvoriu fn .l..
.. . " ui uiunr jJriouiia anu 11 1 11 in uiai
we believe will be benefitted by the advertisement.
The following editorial from the Omaha World-Herald contains
valuable information that ought to be interesting to all business men
and their patrons: ,
The meeting 0f the Advertising Clubs of the World recently in
Chicago is likely to be referred to in the future as one of the most
important conventions held in the United State sthis year The
whole object seems to be to establish truth in advertising and the com
plete obliteration of fake and objectionable advertising of all kinds
Jf the obiect is accomplished, it will produce something like a revolu
tion in the business, as well as the newspaper world. . When the
Housewife can take up a newspaper and know that every advertising
announcement m U is the truth and nothing but the truth, it will re
move a great strain from her mind. She will go to the stroe and make
her purchases with no worry, for if she purchases a piece of goods
that is advertised as "all wolo", she will know that it is all wool. If
she buys a piece of silk, she will know that it is silk and not largely
composed of metal to give it weight. It will be a voluntary move
ment, but the newspapers that refuse to come into it and continue to
print fake ads will 'find that the honest advertisers will generally
avoid them. '
The delegates to this meeting numbered 4,193, of whom 847 were
women. The movement has become so large that it has been divided
into departments. Speaking of his policies President Houston said:
"I will go on trying to make advertising honest. This adminis
tration commits itself to continuing the activities of the educational
and vigilence committees as they have been conducted. No associa
tion in America has ever shown greater vitality in expanding into
these big affiliated departmental. The organization is capable of al
most endless expansion. We must now go forward under the guid
ance of truth."
Mr. Houston entered newspaper work as citv editor nf iK
City Journal and went from it to the Chicago Tribune and then to
jumi5. preseni ne is vice president ot the Uoubleday Page com
pany. With such a man at the head, of the association, fraudulent
advertisers will, without doubt, be gradually eliminated.
BUSINESS MEN IN POLITICS
A business man has a right to participate m politics in a proper
way, and his doing so ought not to be detrimental to his business
but if he permits himself to be made a cat's-paw to rake chestnuts
out of the fire for a corrupt politician, he is not taking part in politics
in a Piu.rr way. Anu u ne geiB nis nngers tuirnetl in the operation
he has himself to blame for his folly.
