NEWSPAPER ADS BEST.
Studebaker Official Tells Results
From $2,000,000 1»25 Campaign.
Declaring that the newspaper is
the best advertising medium h>r rbe
sale of automobiles that has yet been
discovered, Paul G. Hoffman, vice
president of the Studebaker Corpora
tion of America, in addressing 300
New England salesmen of the com
pany at a luncheon in Boston, xast
week, urged dealers to advertise
liberally iu order to increase their
sales.
He declared that the Studebaker
company last year spent $2,000,000
iu newspaper advertisingg. and that
the 1020 advertising campaign would
be even greater. He said advertising
would create a greater market and
therefore greater profits. He warned
against using occasional copy, say
ing continuous copy is. the only kiu’d
that is worth while, as the cumula
tive effect of consistency will bear
fruit next year and the year after.
Some Next Friend Slightly Off-Key.
Raleigh Times.
AA'e quote from The Salisbury
Post:
"The Raleigh correspondent of the
Greensboro Daily News says that
Air. L. T. Hartsell, of Concord, has I
been selected to make the keynote
speech at the State Democratic con
vention April 29th. That ought to
please every one, for the Concord
man is clean, able and above partisan
strife wihch would make others ob
jectionable.”
To which we would promptly and
vigorously assent; but wo see by the
morning papers that Chairman John
G. Dawson states that he has uot
mentioned the matter to Mr. Hart
sell, but that another keynoter has
been tentatively agreed upon. AVhen
Tom Bost turned up the report as to
Hartsell we noted with interest that
he cited Salisbury people as his
authority. Having heard another
man honorably mentioned for the as
signment and being, perhaps, slight
ly off-key, anyhow, it was in order
for us to register resignation and
await developments.
They'll be coming, and if some of
the more vocal friends of Mr. Hart- 1
sell reach the car of a reporter
whilo the thing is fresh in their |
minds, there will probably be a pro
test against newspapers and maybe j
one against the Capital correspond- 1
ent of The Greensboro News person
ally.
This leads us up. to the statement
that if occasionally a statesman
back home is embarrassed u bit by
being touted for a job that does not
materialize, it is almost always the
fault of some friend of his who has
come to Raleigh and attempted some
premature publicity-

INCREASING INTEREST IN
REVIVAL SERVICES HERE
Attendance at Central Methodist and
Forest HiU Methodist Churches
I Showing Daily Increase.
The Forest Hill meeting continues
!to grow in interest. The services held
Tuesday were full of interest and
, good. The morning service, at 9 :15,
was attended largely by the ladies of
I the church. At the 3 :30 service which
is a story hour for children, thei-e
were one hundred and seventeen chil
dren present. Mrs. Houts held then
attention throughout. Children arc
lovers of stories and Mrs. Houts lias
a splendid story-telling ability.
The young peoples’ meeting at 7
o’clock was attended by over 100 and
Rev. Roy Houts held their attention
throughout. He used the 30 minutes
to drive home truths needed in young
life.
At 7:30 the church was prett" well
filled up and they who came did not
have a chance of going back without
something to think about. Mr. Hou'.s
preached on II Corinthians 6:1-4-18:
Separating Ourselves From the AA’orlil
and Unclean Things. There run bo
no fellowship with the work of dark
ness and at the same time keen alive
a vital relation to Jesus Christ. There
are eertuin things which must be left
out of a militant Christian life; pro
fanity, drunkenness, gambling, immor
ality, selfishness.
Naturally some people do not like
for the preacher to talk about these
things because it gets too close to their
peace and way of living.
The Reward of our separation.
AA'hen we separate ourselves from
worldly things and worldly living wc
can draw others. AA’e give to the
world what wc are and what we think.
God will always be with us, blessing
us and using us to His glory.
We shall be sons and daughters of
God.
The thing we are interested in we
in away look like—we become asso
ciated with it. It is a grand tiling to
associate with Jesus ami His work so
much that people seeing us liken us
with Him. There is a home of hap
piness for every sou and daughter
just as he prepares for it. '
Home night, sermon on “Home," at
7:30. Barents and children come to
gether.
Thursday flight “Law and Order
Night.” Special invitation given to
Masons, Juniors, Odd Fellows, AA’ood-!
men and the Ayaks and all the orders
of town.
You are welcome too.
PASTOR.
At Central Church.
- The sermon ahCeatral Gtaircbbist
night was on ‘'Prevailing Prayer.”
Rev. It. AI. Courtney, the pastor, read
the account of Peter-’s do’i.veraidee
from prison in answer to prayer. Thp
text was the fifth verse of the twelfth
chapter of the book of Acts which
reads: “Peter was kept in prison, but
prayer was made without ceasing of,
the church unto God for him.” |
Tlic marks of prevailing prayer
were pointed out as follows:
First—United. The* prayer t’aat
effected Peter’s deliverance was of the I
church praying together. Special I
promises are given in the Bible to,'
those who unite together in prayer. I
“If two of you shall agree on earth !
as touching anything that they shall!
ask. it shall be done for them of my
Fathter which is iu heaven.”
Second—Earnest. It is said that
the church at Jersualem prayed with
out ceasing. They were earnest,
importunate in prayer.
Third—l nto God. True prayer is J
not talking to one's self, neither is
it addressing a congregation. In
prayer we approach the great God of
the universe who is also our Father.
Fourth—Definite. The prayer of
the church at Jerusalem was "For
Slim,” for Peter. It was very spe
cific.
God answered the prayer for Peter
and still answers prayer. Air. Court
ney gave a number of very definite
answers to prayer.
The largest congregation at the
morning services so far was present
this morning. “The Master's Com-
t.—.... I. || .. ... ....... I

passion” was the subject for the dis
course st the 8 o’clock service.
A most cordial invitation is expend
ed to these services which will con
tinue through this and next week at
8 a. in, and 7:30 p. m.

“Smoking most certainly ruine the
■ voice,” says Mias Hempel, “and the
• would-be operatic star must decide
between her art and her acquired
l pleasure. I say acquired because
■ it certainly is not natural. Careers
are often very fragile things and are
; almost sure to go up in smoke if you
blow your rings.”
Jenny Lind would doubtless have
been horrified at the very thought of
girls smoking, career Or no career, but
for many years a cigar has borne the
name of the Swedish nightingale and
a Frieda Hempel is soon to follow, if
rumors are to be believed.
Miss Hempel is also of the opinion
t’iiat there will be more home-grown
and home-developed opera stars with
in the next few years, and that Eu
rope will no longer play the leading
part in their training.
“There is no need of dashing off to
Europe the moment one begins to
practise scales,” says the soprano.
“Some of the greatest teachers in tie
world are right here in America, and
most of them are Americans. I do
not under-estimate the good that Eu
rope can do. Europe has centuries of
music behind it and Europeans go to
the opera as we go to the movies.
Singers undoubtedly receive inspira
tion by even a short visit. But. . .“
and Miss Hempel emphasized the
short and effective word into a warn
ing. . . . “let them go so well equip
ped that they can intelligently ap
preciate and discriminate; otherwise,
the mass of music may confuse rather
than broaden their view. And above
all, let them leave their cigarette case
at home, or better still, bury it where
they will never find it again!”
