PEACEFUL SESSION
Of POLICE BOARD
Owing to the absence of several
members of the board of police com
missioners Tuesday night only routine
matters were passed upon. There were
only five members present at the meet
ing.
Consideration of the ordinance In
troduced In council for the purpose of
retiring policemen on half pay was
held up until the next meeting of the
board.
Patrolman H. D. Freeman presented
his resignation, which was read and
accepted.
In his report Chief Jennings stated
that the expense account of the de
partment would be about 14,000 short
at the end of the year, and Mayor
Woodward and Councilman Oldknow
were requested to confer with the
finance committee of council about the
matter. The cash receipts from the
l"dice department last month were
IW.M5, and as this is larger than any
month in the past,* It was thought there
would be no trouble about getting the
needed $4,000.
All other matters were carried over
until the next regular meeting In Sep
tember.

F. E. Start, and several bricks were
shot from the walla of the Miller hotel

IN THE FIRST WARD
Exclusive and Confidential
Market Reports on the
Value of Advertising
The Lord & Thomas Record of Results constitutes an
exclusive and confidential “market report” on the VALUE
to the advertiser of space in all newspapers and other good
media, regardless of its current price.
E VERY day we receive confidential
reports from our advertising:
clients who sell their goods direct
by mail or who have a direct check
through retailers.
These reports (compiled into our
Record of Results) give us the actual
returns in sales and inquiries from
hundreds of advertisements in thous
ands of papers.
And because no other commodity
bought and sold fluctuates so violently
in value without affecting its price, this
direct check on the VALUE of adver
tising space is as necessary to the
advertiser as the “ticker" is to the
6tock broker.
Ordinarily, conditions that control the
REAL value of space in publications
are likely to change without the loss or
gain at once becoming apparent.
But we are ready to show you how
the Lord & Thomas Record of Results
gauges the rise and fall of media as
accurately and quickly as the thermo
meter records the rise and fall of
temperature.
We will show you how every rise in
value gives us an opportunity to
secure greater returns for the adver
tiser’s money, and how every fall in
value warns us to enter a stop-loss
order if the fall reaches the danger
point.
This is but one of the many exclusive
features of the Lord & Tbonil service
that we want to tell you about
We want to explain to you, in detail,
the workings of the Lord & Thomas
Record of Results, the ONLY practical
SAFE-GUARD FOR AN ADVER
TISING INVESTMENT.
One of our representatives is in your
city every few days looking after the
interests of some of our present clients.
That is why we are advertising in this
newspaper—to you—NOW.
A letter, granting us an interview in
your office, will not obligate you in any
way.
We are lunlng a series of small books (cloth
bound) cossring advertising In *11 Its phases,
id free to inter
which we ssnd free
