The negro who on Tuesday after-T
noon ran off with Mr. Max Flatau’s
automobile was caught 4ast night and
this morning was tried in the may
or’s court on a charge of disorderly
conduct. He plead not 'guilty to the ,
charge and the witnesses were called.
Mr. Flatau gave his testimony to the,
effect that after leaving his car for
few minutes he had seen this boy
tearing off down the street with it at
a fifty mile gate. He said that he
had just left the boy standing by the
car when he vacated it. The automo
bile was a few minutes later pulled
up out of a ditch in a rather dilapi
dated state of condition.'
At this juncture the charge was
changed from disorderly conduct to
speeding and the suggestion made
that a state warrant might be sworn
The negro, whose name was Jim
Walton, was then asked if he had
anything to say. “Yassir Mr. Rowe,
I show is/’ war the answer. The ne
gro—his face twitching and his eyes
pure white—then told in a rapid voice

how he Ead jus- offered to bring the
car round to Mr. Max’s place and had
gotten in and told a hoy to crank off.
It seems that Jim had once run “a lit
tle old Fode” but that when he pulled
the same levers in this car it had run
off with him. The more things he
pressed and pulled the faster the car
went until it finally jumped in a ditch
and the engine choked: Jim, then be
ing scared, had run around the block
and seated himself on the grass to
think it over. He wound up his narra
tive with “Does you think I’d try
t‘steal er big ole automobile—nor sur,
Mr. Rowe, not an’ hang ’round dis
town.” By this time the whole court
room was in laughter and* as Cap
tain Emerick, the other witness,
absent the case was postponed.
Later in the day Mr. Emerick came
in and with his testimony in hand the
boy was given a sentence of $15.00
or 30 days. No st^te warrant will be
issued against him as h^ seems to
have meant to take a joy ride only
a7R*0Mfc' to steal the car. : ’

in other sections the opinion is ex

WHEN THE PEOPLE
REFUSE TO PAY
Ever since the signing of The Declaration of Independence people have
been''discovering new rights and asserting them.
Long ago the people learned how to get what they wanted—by the simple
expedient of “refusing to pay.”
In the days when kings played
“war” with oneanother the people
could always put a sudden end to
the fun by “refusing to pay.”
Today, when men play the great
game of business, they have to de
pend on the people, even as did
those kings of long ago. When the
people stop payment, the game '
ends.
Of high importance is “the right
to know”- as applied to modern
commerce.-: The people have decid
ed they want a “reason why” be- ~-
fore they buy.
We awoke to this fact but a short
whil$ ago; when a few manufac
turers began to tell us some of the
things they thought we should know
about their goods. They were the .
pioneer advertisers.
• Soon the world discovered that it
had an appetite for facts. And in
the readjustment of things for the
proper satisfaction of this appetite,
we have developed a new science—
its name is “Advertising.”
Now that we have learned there is
a way of telling us, we demand to
’ know. By the exercise of a power
that has never failed—the refusal
to pay unless satisfied—the people
. have set up a new order of things.
The manufacturers and merchants
are telling us everything we want
to know—through advertising.
When we buy soap, we must know
“■Whose soap?”“How is it made!”
“What are its properties?” “What
are its uses?” “Wherein- does it
excel?” Advertising tells'us.
It’s the same with well-nigh everything we buy—food, clothes, furniture,
pianos, automobiles. We will have the facts about these things—or we will
refuse to pay.
ill
We, the public, have created 4 J W«r vorfd three. We call it “Advertising.*
