INGRESSMAN JAMES FRANCIS BURKE, of Pittsburgh, the ac- knowledged sartorial perfection of offi- cial Washington, frequently gets into the limelight as an after-dinner speaker. Recently he tempered one of his pa- triotic outbursts with this one: “The average person does not realize how many foolish and hopelessly stupid people there are in the world until he bears the traditions and stories that fill every newspaper office. Each has its ‘prize query,’ amounting to a particu- larly inane question that is asked by a reader in the ‘Answers to Correspond- ents’ column, which most papers con- tain. “[ was at a little dinner party with Secretary Knox, former Governor Stuart, of Pennsylvania, and our mutual friend, Colonel Charles A. Rook, owner ofthe Pittsburgh Dispatch, shortly after Knox was placed at the head of Mr. Taft's Cabinet. It was a sort of jubila- tion feast, after the Republican victory. Colonel Rook aided by telling us some ef the comedies of journalism. “It appeared that several years ago the sporting editor of Mr. Rook’s paper received a rudely scrawled letter, post- marked from a little town in central Obio. It was woefully misspelled and unpunctuated, but later proved to be perfectly genuine and not the result of aprank. It read: “Is Wheeling, West Virginia, in Ohio? Please tell us how you think?’’’ Edward M. Thierry. Modern Jingles. Hen yards and fences, hen yards and fences!

Philadetnhia, Bidg., Phila, Pa. |: Advertising of Advertising— A Series of Talks—No. 37 Influence on Employment Advertising stimulates employ- ment. Thousands and thousands of people are needed to plan, prepare and distribute advertising. Many more are required to manu- facture and deliver the goods adver- tising makes interesting to you. Advertising helps the stevedore toiling in the freight yard just as much as it helps the merchant or manufacturer, who sells that steve- dore what he buys. Because it causes the movement ‘of freight which gives him employment and enables him to care for his home. If all the advertising in one of the big cities were suddenly stopped a public calamity would follow. The loss of trade, the falling off of busi- ness would throw thousands of peo- ple out of employment. Not long ago a large corporation illustrated the influence of advertis- ing on employment in one of a series of advertisements. The advertise- ment was illustrated with fractions of a dollar just as though you were to take a sharp hatchet and cut upa silver dollar. “This big slice,” referring to one illustration, ‘represents the part of a dollar that goes to support the families of 138,565 men directly em- ployed in operating the system."’ “This piece,’’ the advertisement continues, referring to another cut, “almost as large, goes to pay the bills for supplies, most of which in turn goes for labor and represents the support of perhaps 75,000 more wage earners.”’ ‘‘This piece,” re- ferring to a third,‘‘goes to pay state, city and county taxes and rents.’’ And “This piece,’”’ the smallest of all, ‘‘goes to pay the Interest and dividends to the people who have invested in the property.’’ You, the reader, can throw the weight of your influence toward better standards of service and in- directly help thousands to secure employment.
