' PAGETWO aged, but. the 013011me escape< Mr. Rooney 8 car was the one in: repaired after the collision with th eow near Durham.- 1 ‘ .‘u' ‘ m OLD, OLD STORY Chronicle ads. bring results. A woman lost a valuable gold harpin the day of the unveiling, but failing to get track of it, and having ex- hausted all other means, she reluct- antly decided to try a little ad. in The Chronicle. The paper left this office on Thursday afternoon and on Saturday night the valued treaâ€" sure was left at this ofi‘ice, to the unalloyed joy of the owner. In the same issue we undertook to. find a diamond engagement ring that was lost in the Agricultural‘ Park on the clay of the Field Sports between Markdale and Durham schools. The advertiser seemed to have very little faith, and even the writer. who has unbounded confi- dence in the power of The Chronicle as an advertising medium, was too conscientious to hold out high hopes. It was like-hunting for a needle in a haystack, but listen to the sequel. ‘7“‘ ‘â€"‘AA1’ IL. VF-v chances are it remains there still. The car- was from Markdale, and in- quiries are being made in the hope of finding the ring, which will as- suredly he returned. be in the owner’s possession. A girl in town took shelter in an auto- mobile while watching the sports and found the ring on the seat of the car. For safekeeping, she put it in the pocket of an overcoat and the U“. V\.- â€" Though a valuable article, no per- son from our sister village would be mean enough to keep what didn’t belong to him, and particularly the engagement ring of a fair young wo- man. We hope next week to report its return. Chronicle ads. bring re- sults. ADVICE T0 MERCHANTS 1. Read your competitor‘s adver- tisements, but don’t talk about them in your advertising. v 2. Don’t worry about the literary form of your ad.; talk to your pro- spective customer with sincere statements, as if he were standing in front of you. 3. It is best to quote prices in an ad. where possible. 4. Don’t. use fanqy styles of type; the simpler ones are really in better taste and easier read. 5. Two, or at the 'most, three styles of type are enough for an ad., using a light-face type for the body, and a heavier one for the heading and firm name. 6. Don’t make your headings too long; four words make the ideal heading. 7. Awim for contrast between heading and body of the ad. 8. fion’t croxéd your i1ds.; better cut down the copy. 9. A quarter of an inch or so of white space between type matter and the border adds much to the apâ€" pearance of an ad. '10. Avoid flashy, ornamental borâ€" ders; c‘>ccasionally they can be used effectively, but generally a plain bowler will best (10 the trick. 11. Don‘t use an illustration un- less it, really illustrates the COpy. 12. Don‘t use half-tone illustra- tions in newspaper ads. A good line cut will generally serve the pur- pose. '13. In a small ad._. don’t talk about more thon one thing. ' ‘ '14. Change your copy frequently, but. don’t be afraid to repeat .a good ad. 15.~\d\'01'tise continuallv. The se- cret of adxertising success isâ€"keep {it It. 16. The functions of an atlver; tisement are to : (-af‘ Attract favorable attention. (h; Awaken interest. (c‘ Create desire. (it Carry conviction. (07 Inspicle confidence. . (f‘ Influence the reader to buy. 17. Strive to make your ads. clear. complete. truthful, interest- ing. logical. grammatical. properly spelled and punctuated. Last. but not least, always keep in mind the famous remark made by the manager of .a great department store. He said : “Show me ten stores which adver- tise regularly and I will Show you nine that are making money. The failure of the tenth its probably due to bad management.” - A JONAH CAR (Mt. Forest Confederate.) Our weekly automobile accident occurred on Saturday evening on Main street South. Mr. William Hale of Minto had his car parked near R. SCOtt‘5L Company’s store. Taking it out he drove up to Queen and turned around, coming back on the right side. Another car driven by Mr. Beg. Rooney was coming South on the same side. To avoid a headron collision, as reported to us, Mr. Hale turned to the left but not in time to (escape, as the wheels locked. Both, ears were, badly dam:- The trustees ofBlyth’s school have res-engaged Miss H. Lawrence for 1903 at an advance of $20 on this year’s salary. - Drs.

DELLâ€"111 Farwell, Mich., October 20, Donald S. Black, aged 63 years._ Inspector Campbell has a letter in this issue giving valuable advice to boys. . He emphasizes two main. points that cause failure in the bus- iness life of a boyâ€"namely, lack of scholarship, and lack of moral fibre. He said he was asked recently by a banker to recommend a good, relia- ble boy, and was placed in a dilem- ma. One he had in mind was inat- Ftentive as a student and neglected ’his work. Another was a cigarette fiend, a third loitered aimlessly too often on the public street; still an- other was uncourteous and uncivil. and many had shown that they could not do anything well. WHAT DO YOU AMOUINT T0? Say. fellow, let’s take a little walk nut to the 0(ng of the town and sit down in the 0cober sunshine and ask ourselves a few questions. The Idea is to fmd out just how much we are doing 01' have done for Durham. Here are a lot 'of questions we are. going to ask : Do I over attend a school function. or take any interest in the public schools? Do I ever go to church, 01' help .in any of the church activities? Have I ever given my time to soli- citing funds for any welfare or civic enterprise? Do I call on my sick and shut-in fellow citizens? [)0 I help in causes from which I receive no personal gain, or are all my acts prompted by selfish mot- ivos? Do I devote more time to the pur- suit of‘ my own pleasure than I do to looking after my familY’s welfare? Have I recently“ told a fairy story to a little child, or spoken to a dirty faced youngster on the street? How" many genuinely charitable deeds have I performed since the be- ginning of the year? Have I listened to slander, gossip, and false accusations againSt my neighbors without saying a word in protest? ‘ Do I live within my income and My all my bills promptly? There are just ten simple little questions, Answer them honestly~ and add up the sum total. Then see how much You amount .to in the community, and how much you will be missed 'when they cart you out to the cemeten'. _ - HELD DAY PRIZE LIST Following is the prize list f0r the High School Field Day of Markdale and Durham schools, held on Tues- day of last week: Boys’ Senior Championship. 100 yards dash.-â€"-1, Heard; 2, Vol- let/t; 3, Littlejohne.
