12 ADVERTISING IS SAID NECESSARY Frank Stockdale Addresses Many Businessmen at His Second Lecture That advertising is essential to success in retailing was emphasized last night by Frank Stockdale, re tailing expert, who delivered the second of his series of three address es in Fahnestock Hall. More than 100 Harrisburg merchants attended the meeting, and more are expected for the closing lecture to-night. Advertising must be handled properly, said Mr. Stockdale, and not Just inserted from force of habit or because somebody else is doing it. There's no point in it that way, but proper display advertising is worth incredible profits. One fault in mer cantile advertising is the concen tration for Saturday's sales. If the sales were kept scattered throughout the week by well regulated adver tising, a much more efficient and economical establishment would be maintained.

There are very few merchants who are both good buyers and good sellers. Either they show too much enthusiasm in their buying, or not enough in their selling.

TROOP 20 For the benefit of those who do not seem aware of the fact, I would like to state that Troop 20 still meets at Fifth Street M. E. Church at the same old time, 7.30. Thero are still some faithful and old re liables who come to every meeting, but there are also some who are al most strangers. If you have any compaints to make, bring them along with you and tell us about them. To-night all the members should be present as plans will be discussed for taking an overnight hike, night hikes and all-day hikes. We expect to have soon contests in signaling, knot-tying, first aid, stalking, track ing. running and jumping. There will be some vacant offices within a short time and those who expect to get in the running should come early and avoid the rush. Now let's try to make the mem bership to-night 100 per cent, in or der to get ready for our share in the coming Scout week as faithfully as we helped in the big Victory bonfire. J.

First Anniversary of Great St. Mihiel Drive To-day is the first anniversary of the St. Mihiel drive, the first AU-Ameri can offensive which clipped the trou blesome St. Mihiel salient out of ex istence and straightened out the line, at the same time showing William that the Yanks had arrived. Throughout the early weeks of Sep tember there had been a gradual con. centratlon of artillery, infantry, tanks, and every other sort of arm. Beginning at 1 a. m., the artillery launched the biggest preparatory and concentration fire of the entire war, over 1,000,000 shells being sent over the lines. At 5.20 after ten minutes of gas and the same amount of smoke, the rolling barrage started with the doughbovs right behind it. Twenty-foui' hours later doughboys from the First and Twenty-sixth Di visions Joined forces in Vigneulles, and the St. Mihiel salie.nt was no more; out of it came over 16,000 pris oners, more than 400 guns and count, less stores. More than that, however, it showed the Boches that the Amer ican Army had come to stay. Soldiers in Siberia Must Have Music Wherever the American soldier serves he wants music. In every place he has served he has had music. Now in Siberia he wants his band, and so tbere is a chance to enlist, for musicians, in the 31st Infantry band, for service in that country. Men who enlist for this duty will sign up for a period of three years. They will be sent im mediately to Fort McDowell, Cali fornia and then embark for Si beria. Bandsmen in the A. E. F. in France and England had a won derful experience. But Siberia of fers even greater prospect for inter esting travel. Quaint and strange customs, manners and people are to be seen, and vast distances of coun try of great beauty. Though abounding in plentifully stocked virgin forests, a wealth of prolific agricultural districts, and great fields of precious mineral deposits, tho country also has some populous cities which always astonish Ameri cans, who think of Siberia as a desolate, barren waste. An enlist ment as a bandsman, or a radio operator, is rife with opportunity, to travel, to study conditions, and perhaps prepare oneself for a fu ture position, as commercial repre sentative for big business, which is bound to tap this treasure house as soon as peace and stability come. !
