weren't quite as they used to be.
The Cherry Sisters were three,. Now
they are only two. Sister Jessie has
answered her final curtain call. But
Sister Effie—she who would be Cedar
Rapids' mayor—and Sister Addie val-
iantly carried on, alternating in dou-
bling for the departed Jessie.
Edwdft S. Friendly, business man-
ager of the New York Sun, says:
- "What one thine in our national
everyday life is considerably more ap-
preciated today than it was, say ten
yean ago? Superficially, thia question
may sound like a pointless enigma.
Yet the question can be easily answer-
ed, and sustantilly backed up with an
array oF facts and figures, by say-
inc that newspaper advertising is far
more appreciated today than a dec-

ume of advertising in New York City’s
standard size newspepers has increased
84 per cent in the last ten years; in
1927 New York’s' newspapers publish-
ed 69,790,000 lines of advertising. In
1927, ten' years later, they printed
128,972,000 lines of advertising.
Foxy, their terrier, a granddaugh-
ter of their original Foxy, probably
will accompany them, the sisters said.
Meanwhile, Effie, who twice has run
for mayor, is planning to enter, the
race a third time. Her platform, built
upon a vision of a clean city, would
safeguard the morals of the young:
improve the drinking water and assure
I perpetual garbage disposal in a tidy

No direct complaints have been voic-
ed against Hesse. It is known he ac-
cepted the position reluctantly. His
friends say he will relinquish bis of-
fice immediately, but he hopes to rem-
ain until the force is put on a par with
those, of other cities. •
Another point brought out by Gib-
eon is that a military man, as police
head, would not have civic entangle-
ments which embarrass some police
commissioners from exercising their
duty. He would still be in the military
service and it would be to his benefit
to execute his commission to the best
of his ability. His actions would be
noted ort bis service record.
•It isn’^ difficult to analyze the
outstanding reason for this tremendous
growth fa a lineage and- appreciation
of newspaper advertising. It is not"
due to the city's growth in correspond-
ing increase in the total number of
advertisers, or potential advertisers, in
. thia time. The principal reoson for
this 84 per cent increase is due to
the greater selling power, the multi-
plied productiveness of newspaper
advertising. It is far more wisely read.
It is better prepared and thus creates
a greater appeal. And it is more truth-
ful thereby increasing reader confid-
ence which in turn stimulates reader
responsiveness.

Same Old Act
The sisters appeared in the same
old act—“The Gypsy’s Warming”—
thia country leads, 1$ directly traceable
to wide and persistent use of advertis-
ing. By increasing output it has been
the direct means of employing a larger
number of mon. And with mass pro-
duction has come a reduction ip the
cost of products, which means that
both manufacturer xud consumer have
benefited.
‘‘Intelligent advertising will con-
tinue to crow in volume and tn influ-

Yet those on h^ul to witness the
sisters’ “comeback” were just as ap-
preciative and boisterous in their ap-
plause as were the houses of twenty to
thirty years ago. They laughed even
during the sdddest parts of Effie and
Addie's tragic little skit.
The department is suffering from an
epidemic of misconduct among < the
policemen. Raids on gambling places,
vice centers, and bootleg havens have
disclosed police contact. In one ins-
