It's easy to find arguments against
the things you don't . approve of.
Carnivals are a little more vulner
able than Sunday movies or base
ball. A good many of the things
aaid about them are true. .Maybe
some of the men who travel with
them are the kind that burn orphan
apylums and pick pockets. Maybe
some of the women are of careless
morals. The same thing can be said
of more or less reputable citizens of
any community. Not all the bad ones
travel with carnivals.
But people are bo constituted that
they like carnivals. They like to
see Zozo( the wild girl, who eats
mud black mud.) They like to have
the kids rldo on the merry-go-round,
and some of the older ones don't ob
Ject to a spin in the lovers' tub.. The
ferrls wheel Is an attraction, too, and
the shows aren't as rotten, some
times, as ybu think they are going to
be. Some people would rather lis
ten to a Jass band than hear an or
chestra play "The Moonlight Sonata'
and others prefer looking at . the
dance of innumerable Tells to ap
plauding wildly when some Chau
tauqua lecturer perspires arid per

to make, a world and while each of
us could lay out a better course for
our neighbor than the one he has,
It's doubtful whether our course
would be much of an improvement
over his, at that.

For the first time slm-e the Civil War we have a real

Interested in holding our position on the seas.
As a first step In this direetlou It Is necessary to modify

Another Interesting feature of this
Lincoln story is the fact that the car
nival company appealed to the Amer
ican legion (or backing.. The man
agers knew that -they didn't have the
ghost of a show with the council.
Dut they hoped that the council
wouldn't turn down a request by the
ex-soldiers. They made the service
veterans a liberal (?) offer .pf five
per cent of the net proceeds, and
I guaranteed them at least $400 and
: the legion needed the money. They
didn't have to do a thing to get this
j 400 except put it up to council.
J , And there are a lot'of other grafts I
j that are being worked through the
legion, most or tne posts are try
ing to get money to equip club rooms
or for some other purpose -and the
legion will usually come across with
an endorsement of any scheme where
by they get a few hundred dollars
without doing any work. The Alli
ance post had such an experience a
month or so ago, when an ex-soldier
Joined the local post and unfolded an
advertising "scheme that would net It
several hundred dollars for simply
endorsing the scheme. It was the
best advertising graft we ever saw
and we're gazed on a lot of them.
But less than a dozen merchants fell
for It, and some of these went In be
cause they wanted to help the legion.
More than that, they didn't want to I
offend the legion.
But merchants are rapidly coming
to realize that everything that Is
called advertising Isn't. More money
is spent In the average city on vari
ous fake schemes during the course
of a year than is spent for legitimate
publicity. The merchants who fall
for this sort of thing wonder why
they don't get results and somn rf
them decide that advertising doesn t
pay, when they have never tried It.
Some day every chamber of com
merce will have a department de
voted to advertising schemes of all
kinds. . And we don't care how
soon lt comes.
