Factories Are Geared To Big Production (Continued from Page One) both upon those doing the advertising and the newspapers In which it is carried. If business men have confidence that their advertising Is bandied efficiently they are more ready to Increase their appropriations, Inasmuch as advertising, like lit -rature, is really a picture of the I eustoms. habits, modes of living, and Ideals of the people. It must always keen abreast of the temper of the times. One outstanding feature of our present mode of Uv trc Is speed.

This is an age of rapiu motion. It will become more and more rapid, rather than less so People will learn to relax mo tion and to live more deeply, but there will be no turning back to th lass rapid days. All progress has been marked by an increase in peed the conquering of space and time. The trend is a fundamental one not a passing phase. All branchen of business are affected Some Are Changed Some are being changed com pletely.

The most active securities on tl. New York Exchange today represent companies directly helping people to live more rapidly Pood is changing witness the three-mtnute cereal. Increasing use of canned goods, automatic cook ing range, and the delicatessen. The trim, smart lines of women's cloth tng reflect the prevailing desire for freedom of movement and appear ar-ce of fleftness. It Is not mere fad that Is causing women to wear two pounds of clothing Instead of nine or ten pounds as in former days.

Dwelling- house building Is being revolutionised by the wider circle In which peopla move. The railroads, the automobile, the Intense Interest In aviation are all evidences of the desire for speed. Advertising tn so far as possible most be in keeping with this age. If it Is based upon an appeal that Is static rather than dynamic It will fall. Already the static picture is obsolete In advertising.

Live Copy Gets Results 'Copy that produces the sensation cf motion and speed, either by association with moving objects or by other uses of or color Is today the kind that is producing the best results. One good example Is the new hotel, Sherry Netherland which illustrates the architect'? success in building the Impression of speed and motion a New York skyscraper. The soaring lines by which th structure rises give the Inrprt-saion of rocket-like ascent. The use la advertising of stream lines, diagonals, and associations which decrease the effect of bulk and increase the effect of possible red are those that appeal most at the present time. Exaggeration or falsehood advertising makes no impression on the American people today, except one of contempt.

While people ar at .11 Just as emotional. Just as waved by their feelings and Im pulses as ever, they are also far better adapted to distinguishing between the false and the truth in advertising. Faking Is "Suicidal" While untrue or unethical in the past may have temporary fooled the people It never has really paid, and to attempt It la not only wrong, but suicidal today. People are more sophisticated and more cynical than they were In the old days. It does not matter how cleverly written, how artistic, or dramatic an advertisement may be, it will be repudiated by the public ii it la untrue.

The failure of such an advertiser Is exactly what he deserves. Great progress has been made in elimina-ipg dishonest advertising with ha the ranks of business and advertisers themselves. They should be given great credit for cleaning up what was once a disgraceful situation. Efforts In this direction should not be relaxed for a moment. Only that type of advertising will live which is kept on a high moral plane.

Durmg the next 10 years, more rer. the American people, havlnr obtained more of the ma- i terial things of life, will reach, out for the higher, or spiritual things. Advertising should be a leader rather than a lagger In appealing to the higher Ideals and aspirations of the people. The Babsonchart now records business as 4 per cent above normal, compared with 1 per cent above normal a year ago. (Copyright.

Miss Etta Delmas as "Susan" takes the leading feminine role. Her portrayal of the part, a difficult one, is very well done and her manner of delivering the laughs to her audience is clever. Howard MacNear plays the heavy male role and his impersonation of the Spanish Jose Vallejo adds much to the play. Another difficult part is well handled by Miss Genevieve Lyle as Ethel Drake, a wife of very nervous temperament. William Dodge as the husband of the romantic "Susan" does well in seeking to stay at the head of his family.

May McWilliams, Dorothy Shannon, Gondon Hays, Joseph Lawlis, James Worsley and Donald Carr all fit nicely into their roles of disturbing the peace and quiet of family life. Ama Lou Rarnes, Evelyn Randall and Nellie Womack work well in their tipsy appearances as the reasons for the side-stepping of the husbands. While the play is light, It calls for some clever acting and Is well handled throughout the three acts The two hours spent at the Apache are far from wasted.
