proud of our basketball teams, both
boys and girls. The senior girls
and juniors tied in the game Thurs-
day night. The tie was played off
and as luck would have it, the
seniors won. But every member of
the class fully appreciated the hard
fight our girls made to win.

WANT ADS
TRUTH IN ADVERTISING.
From The Philadelphia Record.
"An important part of the money
which is invested in advertising,"
says Eward A. File tie, the Boston
emrchant, in an article in Associated
Advertising, "can be recovered in tht
form of good-will if the advertising
has been absolutely truthfull. When
the writer of advertisements keeps
himself on the high professional
plane where he belongs by refusing
to overdraw *ny statement whatso-
ever, he is adding day by day to
the assets of the business which he
serves. The foundation of good-will
is the truth."
Mr. Filene points out that, while
the skill of a good writer may draw
crowds of people to a store to see
the wares he has described in too 1
glowing terms, the majority of them "
will go away disgusted if they find
the goods are not what they were
led to expect, and it will take more
skill and more money in advertising
to get these disappointed customers
into the store on the next occasion.
Overstatement thus makes advertis
ing excessively expensive and de-
feats its own ends.
These facts arc so generally recog-
nized by the up-to-date merchants
who advertise regularly in the news-
papers that they often understate
ratlher than exaggerate the merits
of the commodities they offer. Truth
in advertising, once a rarity ,is now
the rule. That is one reoson why
it is so profitable to the consumer
to read the advertising in his news-
paper carefully before he decides up-
on a purchase.
Notice is hereby given that the
partnership heretofore existing be-
tween H. W. Armstrong and A. Mc-
Daniel for writing life insurance is
dissolved and notes due the partner-
ship are due and payable to A. Mc-
Daniel.
