In Politics Teddy Is Name To Conjure With And Young Theodore Roosevelt Now So Christened Is Being "Groomed for New York Governorship With Odds All in His Favor Say Friends lly KOItKKT T. SMALL IttS. ?> TM ? ?..??> New York, January 2 ? A year of political destiny has opened for young Colonel Theodore Roosevelt. His friends and admirers have carried matters in his behalf so far that they have almost made him openly an aspirant for the Republican nomination for governor, in this, his native state. Even more significant is the j fact that one of the Roosevelt ! organizations has adopted as its slogan "We want Teddy for Governor." This is the first time the young Colonel has been given the appella tion which was so great a political ? asset to his distinguished father. "Teddy"* buttons have been ordered ; by the hundreds of thousands and they are to be scattered from one end of the state to the other by trav-| elling salesmen who have formed a ? club in beha-lf of the young Roose- ? velt who is rounding out his third year as Assistant Secretary of the Navy. Young Roosevelt is known to Iris more intimate friends as "Ted.". That was also his father's name for] him. Now that "Teddy" has formal ly been attached td him it would j eeem that his political future is all ? but made. The temper of the Republican men and women, the workers in the , rank.-, was shown in .a very renvark ^.able way recently When Colonel Roosevelt appeared at a dinner along with the two men who are regarded 1 jys his mpst serious rivals for the gu bernatorial nomination. These men were Colonel William Hay ward, the United States District Attorney, arch enemy of the predatory bootlegger and all criminal malefactors for that matter, and Mr. H. Edmund Mac Hold. speaker of the New York as sembly and upstate political leader. Colonel Hayward has a distin guished military career behind him. Whenever and wherever Tie" appears In uqif^rm his left breast is covered with the coveted decorations which go only to the brave. Colonel Hayward received a hear ty welcome when he arose to speak to the seven hundred men and wo men of his party at the dinner. Speaker MacHold also was applaud ed most vigorously. But when Roos evelt aros$ he got an ovation. The diners stood and cheered for several minutes. The Incident meant much politically and it has not been over looked by the leaders of the G. O. P. There are some of these leaders who feel that perhaps a more seasoned man than Colonel Roosevelt should be chosen to head the state ticket this fall, but the friends of Roose velt feel the ticket would be start ing with a great asset of personality if he were placed on it. It has been known for some time that young Roosevelt has had his eyes fixed on the governorship. Like his father he feels that to be gover nor of this state is to be second in importance to the President of the United States. Early efforts to stait a "boom for Roosevelt for Vice Pres ident this year were quickly squelched by the Colonel himself who stated that he would not per mit the use of his name. That was at a time when It was taken for granted that , President Harding would be renominated in 1924 and when the ^vise men of the party were casting about for a successor to Cal vin Coolidge who was not then re garded as a "strong man." Things have changed now. The vice presi dency must go West. This is regarded as a fine "break " for Colonel Roosevelt. It has left the way open for him to go after the governorship this year. It will be a great advantage to Colonel Roose velt to be able to run In a presiden tial year. New York state has a way of going Republican In presidential years and Democratic In the "off"! years. The Roosevelt adherents; want him to run this year. They do I not take seriously the threats of the | "dry*" to thwart the young man's ambitions. i MYHTKIiY IAPHT PKTH SOLVED ?> Hamburg, January 3 ?

Fans from ,| many points of the State are gather-1 ing here today to attend the boxing carnival at Fort Bragg, near here tonight. The main event of the program which is being staged for the benefit of the Soldiers* Ath-| letlc Fund will be a boxing bout be tween Young- Stribling, Macon, Ga., schoolboy, who claims the title of World's Ught-H^avyweight Cham pion. and Kid Numbers, a member of the Seventh Field Artillery, United States Reguhrr Army. Numbers* j given name is Jhn Numerovich and he enlisted in the service from | Pennsylvania where has was at work in a coal mine when a recruit-! ing party passed through. Young Stribling needs no introduction to the boxing fans of the country, hav ing built up an enviable reputation , over a period of several years and! culminating in his sensational show-1 ing against the veteran Mike Mc-j 1 Tigue in Macon. Ga., last October.] SnibltDg fought jjavft Rosenberg in Newark, N. J. New Year's Day. | Stribling arrived . this morning j accompanied by his picturesque fam ily, which includes "Pa" Stribling, i "Ma" Stribling and even "Baby" Stribling. 'Hie entire family will j have reserved seats at the ringside I tonight. i Kid Numbers presents a type of ! American youth "made by the United States Army." His parents are of Russian descent, Numorovich ! being born in this country. The sol dier boxei's rise to his present posi tion in Army athletics is little short of remarkable. Scarcely one year ago he never thought of adjust | ing a boxing glove to his great fist. In November, 1922> the Post Recrea tion Officer found it nece?sary to comb the camp for volunteers to enter an Army Championship meet j in the middleweight class. Private 1 John Numorovich, scarcely more ! than a recruit, presented himself i and after a few days hurried instruc 1 tion was shipped to the place of the meet, where he was soon knocked out by the twice-champion of that dis . trict. He lost mainly through the lack of proper conditioning and re I turning to Fort Bragg joined the j boxing school that is conducted there. Numorovich set his heart unon one thing and that was to de feat the mail who knocked him out ; at Atlanta, Ga. He came into the ring again as Kid Numbers and his i ambition was fulfilled this summer I when he knocked out the champion ' after one of the greatest battles ever j seen here. Army training, clean, heathy food and living is credited by Numbers for his chance at world honors In I boxing, and he faces Young Stribling tonight with the full knowledge that decisive- victory will put him in the position of not only gaining fame for himself, but for his "outfit" and the United States Army. If he loses ? but frlendH of the good natured sol dier agree he is not thinking of any such happening tonight. A goodly number of preliminary Bouts are announced by Lt. Fred-T ick E. Coyne. Jr., Post Recreation Officer who is staging the show for th** benefit of the Post Athletic Fund. l'anama Cook, pride of Fay ettevillo will meet DHL Harris, Fort Bragg soldier featherweight in the 1 it-round senii-finol.

At the moment they are lying on the sales manager's desk in the establishment of a large middle-western hardware jobber. One spark plug bears a name known wherever automobiles are used, the other a name seldom heard. Both, says the sales manager, are good plugs. On the score of <|iiality they run neck and neck. "But," he adds, "we are discontinuing this line" ? and he holds up the plug of unfamiliar name. "Yes, and our discount on it is larger, too." "What's wrong with it? Not a thing. It's a good plug ? mighty good plug, but ? no one knows alx>ut it. It isn't advertised ? the other one is. The demand is for the advertised make. And we've learned it pays to swim with the current, not against it." More and more jobbers in every line of business are learning every day that it pays to swim with the current of popular demand. "Our job," said one jobber, "is to supply mar kets, not create them. I^et the manufacturer make a market for his goods ,ai>d we will handlf it." Said another ? "Our salesmen carry a catalog with thousands of items in it. They haven't the time to push unadvertised goods. Their work is principally taking orders." If you go among these wholesalers today to in troduce a new product in competition with mer chandise nationally advertised, unless the article is exceptional, you will be met everywhere by the injunction: "First go out and get a reputation for your goods. through advertising." The wholesaler knows by actual contact with dealers how they value speed of turnover, goods which move with a minimum of efTort, goods peo ple know about and ask for. 000??00l0000l008l00p^p0ll?
