If there is a ballyhoo about anyone coming to town, theatres want him to see their show, and the shaving soap people want him to pose using their new lotion and the chances are he'll get a wire offering him most anything he wants to say that he likes a certain brand of hot dog best. Hundreds of dollars arc spent daily by thole publicity experts giving dinners, sending telegrams and cables, and burning up the telephone wires.

Cables of every description were flashed to the Graf Zeppelin Aviation heroes since Lindbergh's arrival have been greatly in demand. Visiting nobility is always good, and society endorsements aren't to be sneered at by any means. If a poor show can link up in some way with an international hero it might suddenly become a good show, and that's how it works. Or even a gaod show might bolster its business to record-breaking proportions, if it should be lucky enough to have been the show that the hero of the day on his only night in the city attended. There is a new phase to Manhattan motion picture life, that is a diversion.

It is the new-type small neighborhood houses in the swankier sections catering exclusively to foreign-made films. They are a novelty and as there are always those seeking the different in Manhattan, the houses are always well filled and playing. And it is planned this fall, so it is said, to bring at least one of the better Paris musical and girl shows to Broadway, to give New York a glimpse of what Parisians like in the way of girl shows. A French novelist recently was at the Roosevelt and admitted that there is fifty per cent more speed to a Broadway girl show than in the Paris or London music halls, and that the costumes are more pretentious, however few. The report is that 100 new shows will appear on Broadway before Christmas, which sounds like a lot but really isn't in view of the fact, that a big number will not last.

THE MADONNA LILY Is admired by all lovers of the beautiful. They are easy to raise and get better from year to year. August and September is the time to set these bulbs in order to have flowers for next year. I have them for sale, only $2.00 per dozen. Let me also supply your Tulip bulbs.

Eldredge, Co-publishei of the Ogden, Utah, Standard Examiner, says: That seventy-five per cent of the newspapers throughout the country do not capitalize their business-getting opportunities. They depend entirely too much on users of large space for an increased volume of advertising and do not devote enough time and enrgy to developing occasional advertisers into regulars and convincing non-advertisers that regular advertising is a sound investment that pays good Things do not happen. They are brought about. This statement applies particularly to the newspaper business. A solicitor has a certain number of regular accounts to see each day for copy.

After a time his work becomes routine and his calls are made to fill the day and beat the dead lino. No salesman develops by daily calls on men who arc. firondy sold on advertising. He becomes on order taker rather than a salesman, and eventually you find him promising free publicity or other extra inducements to get his quota of copy. Salesmen who grow and help to make the paper grow, get off the beaten path in search of new accounts.

They check the books of past years for old accounts that have been normittod to lapse for no good reason. They keep alive to opportunity and abreast of the times. The sucesa of an department cannot be measured alone by the volume produced. The num- btu 1 of new advertisers secured each year is the best guarantee for future progress.
