GIBRALTAR PROPOSITION A LITTLE OBSCURE (By The Associated Press ) LONDON. Oct. i". Tlie statement made ev Heniy Morgenthau on his .re turn to the I'nited States, suggesting that iireat Britain share the control of Ci- iiraltar with the I nited States, was not generally reported here. The Morning I'ost alone carries something like a full report under the headlines: "Gibraltar --A Naive Suggestion.'' but does not on. meat on Mr. Morgenthau 's words. A brief agency account is printed by I'iie ii.apnic, which refers somewhat vaguely to the "Gibraltar proposal." The newspaper comments in general terms, urging the I'nited States to accept a mandate for Constantinople, Armenia and Anatolia, but passing by the Gibral tar recommendation as a " little obscure. ' Other papers do not mention Mr. Mor gent ha u 's statement. i in. innri' i. O.. O t. io.- The constitu tion of the New ('nited Christian Mis sionary Society was dis.-u.-sed at the final ses-ion of the international convention of the Disciples of Christ her.- today. With the action of the Christian Women's Board of Mission and the home and for eign missionaries' societies voting for unification, the merger was assured. The progrossiyes of the church wvre in favor of the consolidation of work on the ground tti.at it would lead to greater ef ficiency and reduce operating expenses as well as prevent .u.-r lapping and duplica tion. I he e.,iis. rv a 1 1 ve faction opposed the merger, fearing a concentration of power bordering on bureaucracy. 'FLYING PARSON" GLAD TO FLY FOR SAMPSON FOLK.

J., Oct. 20 F.stablishment of a permanent interna tional oipu::zation of business men for the purpo f eliminating unfair inter national trude practices, working out a lietter system of credit and finance in the international exel ange of goods and act ing as a clearing house for ideas with re gard to manufactures and commerce, is exieeted to result from the Internaional Trade Conference which is to be held here this week. Informal conferences and subcommittees meetings were begun to day and will continue until the formal ses sions begin Wednesday night. This new organization probably will supplant the international congress of chambers of commerce and commercial and industrial association which for 14 years have been a common clearing house for the business ideas of the world. Its functions have been suspended since June. 1914. Under the tentative plan of the Amer ican delegates, the new organization will endeavor to bear the same relation to the league of nations on commercial sub jects as the international lalwr confer ence soon to convene in Washington.

I took different medicines, but nothing did me any good or relieved me until I took Cardui . . . I was not able to do any of my work for one year and I got worse all the time. was confined to my bed off and on.

Thousands of women who once suffered in this way now praise Cardui for their present good health. Qtre UatriaL NC-133 COMING! THURSDAY AND FRIDAY "THE UNPARDONABLE SIN r Advertising Doesn't Pay Occassional ly the ad man runs across a mer chant who says , "I don't believe advertising pays." And he is right-and wrong. There are some clothes that don't wear; some articles of merchandise that are practically worthless. A lack of judgment and the application of common sense-just every-day old horse sense-is responsi ble. Advertising, rightly done, does pay. There is no doubt about it because it has been thorough ly demonstrated by firms which spend enormous sums annually advertising and use reliable checking methods which prove to them that their advertising does pay. Then why is that some advertising doesn't pay? ' Just a little observation and investigation will reveal the secret. The merchant who has an idea that advertising doesn't pay may be described in this way: He takes all the time that is necessary to purchase his goods to advantage, spends hours and hours with salesmen going over their sam ples, subjecting their goods to rigid tests both as to quality and price, or perhaps spends days and days at market selecting his goods with care. When the goods come in he spends more time properly so-in checking them up, sorting and ar ranging them and displaying them in show cases and in show windows. Then, if he has any time left on his hands (as a rule he has very little of it), he grabs a pencil and a piece of wrapping paper and dashes off something he designates as an advertisement. If this merchant gave no more thought, no more time-used no more judgment and common sense-in doing his buying and displaying than he does in writing his advertisements his business would soon go to the bad. And yet this merchant complains that ad vertising doesn't pay-and we agree with him. There is an old saying that "anything that's worth doing is worth doing well." This applies to advertising as much as it does to anything else. Any "Doubting Thomas" advertiser who will do his advertising for awhile in the right manner will be convinced that advertising does pay-that is, if he uses the columns of The Gazette and wants business out of Gastonia or Gaston county. Of course, there is one prime requisite if the advertiser is to get results, namely: He must have a medium of character, up-to-dateness and circu lation through which to reach the people. The Gazette is such a medium and Gastonia mer chants -the live ones-have long ago found that it pays handsomely to advertise in the columns of this paper. P. S. There was a man who said that he "would try anything once.,r If youv'e never tried advertising in The convinced. Gazette, ty it-arid be
