(From, Thursday's Daliy.) i- -i I' -IJwti t-jyalub' of aw a'ttrftcUvf: featurh Illustrated by fast that-'-SWrectwr Blair's "pup" seems destined to- become nationally fa? mpus, torlng M.iVjailaijr vcrjt profit ojiji; many parts, of the coufi.ti;;,' i'. Mr. announced today thajt, he has sold promotion rights foe. the "pup" to the Sparrow 'inf ilgoncyv oi' Birmingham, Al.aii.

foi1 If! O.ifOfl, retaining fa -per cent 'of th stock In the enterprise that the- contract with the Company provides that ho shall re-ceive royalties amounting to -40 por. cent not on each contract secured by tho company, ond that it further provides that he shall receive a salary of $300 per month, with expenses paid to any clothiers' coa: ventions he may wish to attend, as, payment for his furnishing ndver-. Using copy for the syndicate fty the! month. -Mv John D. Turner, of Birmingham, Ala, will be business mana-er of tho new syndicate, and will devote his entire time to tho work.

On all contracts he secures, Mr. Blair will receive royalties of 10 per cent, net, the advertising agency under tho contract paying all tho expenses, of securing the contracts. In Mr. Blair reserves the privilege of selling suit boxes and suit labels, hearing the "pup" trade mark, and of selling papier mache pups. Furthermore, ho is permitted to use the picture of the pup, and the "daily advertising talk; which ho composes himself for the syndicate, reo of charge.

Also, I Mr. Blair has reserved for himself the rights in four states, Iowa, Mis souri, Kansas, Nebraska. Ex cept for those states, the Sparrow Agency has the rights for the Unit ed States and Canada. The "pup" advertising service will sell in small towns for S1S0 a yeari and In Jarger- cities cities like Birmingham, and Jackson ville, Fla, for $420 a year. Beginning August 1, Mr.

Blair must, furnish copy for each day's advertisements of the, store's using the "pop" advertising service. How over, his salary of $300 a month be gins on May 1. Mr. Blair is to receive all tho -privileges and profits described in return for work which will take about a day and a half qf his time eacn montn. i-ie said today he be licved he could compose the dally advertising talks for an entire month In about a day and a half.

Mr. Blair says his work for the syndicate will not at all Interfere with his business herer on tho other hand. It should help, rather; than obstruct. He will have his advertising office in his store here, and said today that ho expects to make his store ever. The pictorial pup, which Is bringing Mr.

Blair such good fortune. was conceived by Mr. Ulair as a trade mark about five years ago. Ho employed an artist to draw the picture of a pup, according to his specifications, and had the picture copyrighted! He used the mark constantly, together with sayings purporting to be uttered by the pup, with the result that the mark attracted wide attention. Mr.

Blalr has pushed tho "pup" advertising with especial energy during the past two years, with the result that he and his trade mark have had several write-ups in several national trade magazines. About two months ago tho owner of eight clothing stores stopped off here to see Mr. Blalr. He wanted him to consider writing advertising copy for his stores by the month. Mr.

Blair decided tho.t it would be just as easy, and much more profitable, to write for several hundred stores. So he went to Chicago and took the matter up with the largest syndicate 1n the country. He went to the office of the private manager without on appointment. Tho manager said he couldn't give Mr. Blair any time that there was no appointment.

That wns about 8:15. By that time Mr. Blalr had a picture of the pup on tho manager's desk. The latter call his secretary-treasurer, psychologist, and sales manager, and Mr. Blair was closeted with those of ficials until 12:15.

Boforo Mr. Blair left, he was offered a contract to urnlsh 'serylco for tho syndicate. Mr. Blair cnYno hotno'ito tho offer, and -within a dime7 had sold cight'cpntraotslto stores, through his owfl and, with out a prospectus, to.w contracts ramo in steadily, untjl at Jns Mr. Blalr had signed stores in Birmingham.
