How Some Men
Try Advertising---
Some men try advertising as the Indian
tried feathers. The story goes that one
time an Indian took one feather, laid it on a
board and slept on it all night. In the morn-
ing he remarked:
"White man say feathers soft, white man
d--n fool."
Some business men invest a quarter or
50 cents in advertising, and then because
they do not at once realize a great increase
of business they declare that advertising
does not pay.
A man should not expect returns too dis-
proportionate to his investment. Even little
advertising is doubtless worth all it costs,
but a seven dollar ad cannot be expected to
revolutionize business and turn trade out of
its accustomed channels.--Hampton Chron-
icle.

Four ays of Harness .aces
at Iowa State Fair
Des Moincs, Ia., Special: Horse race tans will get more for theil
money at this year's Iowa State Fair, according to a revised schedule
of racing events announced here today. Due to increased entertain
meat features at the 1939 state fair, officials say it has been necessary
to crowd four days of harness races into three afternoons, providing
more races each afternoon than has ever been witnessed at the fair
before. Harness racing days this year will be Aug. 28, 29, and Sept. 1.
Nearly $10,000 in purses is expected to attract the pick of America's
trotters and pacers. Features on other afternoons of the fair will in-
elude auto races on Aug. 25, 27, and Sept. 1, and "thrill day" pro-
grams on Aug. 26 and 30.
