A long time ago there was no advertising. Every man with something to sell had to tell people about it personally and individually.

This was not a great handi-1 cap in those days, for no one had very much to sell. But as soon as large-scale manufacturing was begun, it was necessary to find a way to tell many people about products, and to tell them quickly and all at one time. To fill this need, advertising naturally developed as a universal business process. Without it we could not operate large factories making goods for millions of consumers. Advertising is sometimes spoken of as a special kind of business, as separate industry suported by other lines of business.

It is no such thing at all. Advertising is simply a part of the process of selling the products of every industry. It does the important job of telling people about merchandise and where to buy it, and it stimulates their desire to buy. It is not enough to make goods and to transport them to places where consumers can buy them. The public must be told about the goods--how desirable they are, how people can make themselves more comfortable, more healthy, or more happy through buying them.

In other words, the merchandise must be sold, not merely placed on sale. Advertising does a large part of this selling, and there is no other method that can take its place. Since the days when there was no advertising, the quantity of goods produced has been multiplied by many, many times.

Oliver, of Wilmington, held the Central Pennsylvania Open golf championship today following a stretch-drive finish that yielded a two under par 70-70-140 over the Reading Country Club course. Byron Nelson, home pro defendring champion, blazed a hot 66 in the opening round for a new course record and a fine margin over the field, but the Ryder Cup star faded to 75 in the second round and lost the crown by one stroke. Oliver played consistently for his second title within eight days.

He won the Southern New Jersey' Open last week. The Wilmington strong boy also won the Central Penn championship two years ago. Billy Haverstick, of Lancaster, led the amateurs with 73-72-145, and John Cree, of Sunbury, Duke University golf captain, placed among the first 15 148 total. GANNETT IN LONDON London, Aug. Gannett, president of the Gannett Company, publisher of newspapers in New York, Connecticut and Illinois, arrived here from New York to be the guest of Lord Beaverhrook, owner of the Daily Express.

sequently each consumer's share is vastly Increased. The wealth created in making the goods is distributed to consumers through payments for wages, materials, and dividends, and thus they are able to buy the greater volume of goods produced. But merely being able to buy does not make people buy. Salesmen and advertising must be kept on the job all the time, to keep merchandise moving from factory to consumer, or the wheels will soon stop turning. The work of selling is just as important as the work of making and the work of transporting.

And advertising is the only way by which the large volume of goods now being duced can be sold. In performing its selling work, advertising shows us the way to better living, by creating desires for better Through conveniences introduced by advertising, the burdens of housekeeping have been made easier and the family, diet has been improved. Babies are healthier and homes are more sanitary because of the educational influence of advertising. Newspapers and magazines are sold for a few cents a copy and radio entertainment is free, because advertisers pay most of the costs of these three great mediums for advertising. While doing all this useful and valuable work, advertising costs the consumer nothing because it is the most economical form selling and lowers the cost of distribution.

Advertising is the voice of industry, telling us all how to live happler lives and how to make cur money go farther. by the Advertising Federation of Federation of America STINE'S CAPTURES OPENING CONTEST Stine's team won the first game of the playoffs last evening at the Sullivan Park diamond nd at the expense of Massara's Grocers, by score of 11-6.

$20 GOLD PIECE RUSH ON Boonville, -A $20 gold piece was dug up here in what has been pasture land for the past 50 years. In' the gold rush that followed, surrounding ground for a goodly distance was dug up by gold seekers but no more $20 gold pieces were found. THE PAYOFF BY HARRY GRASON Sports Editor, NEA Service ROBERT MOSES GROVE best explains why pitchers so seldom finish games nowadays. "They don't like to pitch," says the famous left-hander of the Boston Red Sox. "They won't work.

"I try to tell youngsters what to do, but it's too much trouble for them. All they want to do is strut in front of the grandstand. "I won 10 straight games when I first reported to Baltimore in 1920, and nobody not even Jack Dunn spoke to me. "I was wilder than the wild man of Borneo throughout my first two seasons with Connie Mack and the Athletics, and nobody suggested a remedy. "So in the spring 1927, I.

tobk Earl Mack aside at Fort Myers told him that I was going to develop control if I had to throw my arm off doing it. For 45 minutes daily all spring I threw over an improvised plate to Earl Mack threw until I could hit a gnat in the eye at 60 feet 6 inches. "You can't get away from it. Practice makes perfect. "A PITCHER has to acquire many things.

He must develop proper balance. He must learn how to let his body go through when to let the ball go." Grove, a marvel at 38, still prefers to toil in turn and wouldn't mind relieving now and then. When Grove was with the A's, Connie Mack never had to order anybody to the -bullpen when a pitcher got himself in hot water. PIRATES. YANKEES HAVE SAFE LEADS IN MAJOR LEAGUES By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent.

Chicago, Aug. With excitement in the pennant races dwindling because of the increasingly apparent superiority of the Pittsburgh Pirates and New Yankees, chief major league interest today centered on the battles for second place in both circuits. The battle in the National League is a three way affair between the Giants, Cubs and Reds. Six and a half games behind the Pirates, New York holds a game and a half edge over the Cubs and who are deadlocked for third place. Cleveland, trailing the Yankees by games, has only a game and a half advantage over the Boston Red Sox.

After a complete day of idleness all major league clubs resume play today. The hottest action was expected at Cincinnati, where the Reds and Cubs come to grips in a battle for third place. The next six days should settle the Cubs' pennant chances definitely inasmuch as they move into Pittsburgh for a three game series with the league leaders after they wind up their three game series in Cincinnati. The Cubs' pitching staff is pretty well shot now with Clay Bryant, Dizzy Dean and Tex Carleton all more or less on the sick and ailing list. Bryant is nursing an injured left hand.

Dean is being handled with kid gloves and Carleton has shown no signs of recovering from an arm ailment. The Giants and Reds in the same boat 'as far as pitching goes. Carl Hubbell has gone sour. Cliff Melton has faded from the great form of his freshman, year. Bill Terry hasn't reliable pitcher.

Cincinnati's pitchers have been blowing leads right and left. The Reds couldn't find a pitcher to hold a seven run lead in one of Sunday's games against Brooklyn. Cleveland's big drop may be charged to a collapse of their pitchers. Bob Feller, Johnny Allen and Mel Harder all lost their form at the same time. Brooklyn, the most active major league club in the player marts, continues the search for talent in the hope of climbing out of sixth place.

'The Dodgers latest acquisition is Wayne Lamaster, Phillies' southpaw. He has won four games and lost seven this season. Last year he won 15 and lost 19. RECORD CROWD SEES HAZLETON TUMBLE BINGHAMTON TEAM (By United Press.) Binghamton and Hazleton play the second game of what may be a "crucial series" in the Eastern League pennant race. today with the Red Sox one up on the Triplets by virtue of a 5-3 victory yesterday.

The win shortened Binghamton's lead by a full game before a record week-day crowd of 3,400 at Hazleton's park. The Red Sox picked up a 3-0 lead in the second and third innings, but Binghamton tied the count with a three-run rally in the sixth. Hazleton scored twice in the eighth on a passed ball which pushed one run across and a single by Walsh. Dasso and Walsh pitched for Hazleton with Walsh getting credit for the win. Stanceu went the route for Binghamton and permitted nine hits while his mates were collecting 10 off Dasso and Walsh.

Trenton and Elmira split a double-header, the Senators winning the first, 6-5, and dropping the second, 5-4. One other game saw Albany take a 4-3 decision from the Wilkes- Barre Barons. MACKMEN, PHILLIES STRENGTHEN FORCES Philadelphia, Aug. 9-Shibe Park, home grounds for both the American League Athletics and the National League Phillies, will see three new faces when the clubs make their home stands, it was disclosed today. Connie Mack's Athletics will be bolstered the services of Outfielder Wilson De Miles, obtained from Chattanooga of the Southern Association, and Catcher Hal Wagner, brought back from Spartanburg.

The Phillies have replaced Wayne Lamaster on the mound corps with Max Butcher, obtained from Brooklyn for the straight waiver pricewhich sent Lamaster to the Dodgers yesterday. Butcher, six foot, three inch right-hander, has won five and lost four. Lamaster has scored four victories against six defeats. The new Wilsonman 1s 28 and a native of Holden, W. Va.

He was with the Athletics in 1931, sent down to the Baltimore Orioles and then went back to the Dodgers where he served two years. Miles is 26 and a native of Bessemer, "Ala. He formerly was up with Washington. Wagner, former Duke University star, was with the Athletics once before. As the A's obtained these two it was announced they had released Pitcher Bill Priest, University of California teammate of Outfielder Sam Chapman.

WILLIAM WISE ONES FIGURE AMBERS WILL LOSE TO NEGRO BATTLER New York, Aug. boys who lay their money on the line today gave Lo' Ambers only one chance in three of remaining lightweight champion when Henry Armstrong surges out to meet him, fists flailing, tomorrow night at the Polo Grounds. They offered even money that Ambers wouldn't last the full 15 rounds. Those odds reflected a general belief that Armstrong would knock out Ambers and thus become the first fighting man in history to wear three crowns simultaneously. This belief was also reflected at the box office, where it was indicated the total gate would be less than $80,000.

Promoter Mike Jacobs insisted today that a "big, last sale" would bring the gate than $100,000, but he minute, admitted that the advance sale was only about $30,000. HUSTLING SPIRIT, TRAYNOR EXPLAINS, IS HELPING PIRATES Pittsburgh, Aug. Pittsburgh Pirates were far enough ahead in the National League race today to suffer bad attacks of superstition any time you mentioned that they might win the pennant. Manager Pie Traynor shuddered and closed up like a clam when he heard the word "pennant," but he was willing to discuss the road trip from which the team just returned-an invasion that sent them surging games ahead of the New York Ginats. A hustling spirit was responsible for the success, he said, and he credited three men with inspiring the remainder of the playersThird Baseman Lee Handley, Outfielder Johnny Rizzo and Pitcher Bob Klinger.

"It's the best spirit the club has had in years," Traynor said. "How do you feel about the pennant this year?" he was asked. Traynor didn't want to answer that one, but finally he said cautiously, "we got as good a chance as anybody." Mrs. Barney Dreyfuss, chairman of the board of the Pittsburgh club, refused to get too optimistic. tic.so "We are keeping our fingers crossed," she said.

"It should be about time we had a World Series here, but we've almost had it several times before."

I saw an angel start a double play, cherubims steal second, third, and home, and seraphims lose a high fly in the sun. The angels didn't have wings or harps or beautiful golden hair. They were little colored boy angels, in torn knickers and canvas shoes, who had come up the Hudson to "heaven" right smack along with their "god," Father Divine. The dusky little angels grew tired of hearing "god" talk, long about three in the afternoon, and stole away from the throne room, where the smell was that of fried chicken and corn on the cob and not of incense and myrrh. They squirmed away from mothers and fathers, packed tight in a big room, repeating, "Peace, father," and "peace, ain't it wonderful," and stole to the out-of-doors to choose, up didn't.

sides. have. any trouble finding a baseball in "heaven" and! they didn't have any trouble find- Ing a bat. They found a big, tall kid who might have been an derstudy for Gabriel to act as umpire, and the game was on. I moved around behind home plate, because I was curious to see what an angel pitcher could put on the ball.

Lo and behold! The little colored pitcher didn't have a thing but a roundhouse out. I thought it cut the corner of the plate for a strike, but I couldn't hear what the umpire called it because just then Father Divine's voice boomed through the loudspeaker to say: "I am the mysterious suspicious and the victorious comer of all opposing opposto I am the light and the candle the transmitter of all prohibita tion. Ride them wings of morning toward heaven that ain't geographical." During the time I tried to figure out this "divine" message the bases became loaded and, on an infield hit, there was a close play at the plate. The umpire called the runner out. Angels, cherubims and phims became mixed up in a violent argument over the decision.

Words were said and looks were passed that have no place in "heaven." "Peace, ain't it wonderful," the loudspeaker said. "Peace, ain't it wonderful." The umpire caught his cue. "Peace, ain't it wonderful," he The scrapping little angels unbundled their fists and beatific smiles came to their faces. They, murmered, "Peace, father, ain't it wonderful." The game went on, If the sample I saw yesterday of Father Divine's power over argue ing ball players is a true example of what he can do, then I think there is a place for him in major league baseball in case his various "heavens" start folding umpire he would make.
