The October number of Practical Ad-
vertlalng, beginning the fourth volume
and year of publication by the Mas-
sengale Advertising Agency, has Just
made Its appearance. Filled from cov
er to cover with good things, this num
ber Is undoubtedly the brightest and
beat that has been Issued from the
Massengale press. The Initial Issue of
the new volume funils the promise of
the past and suggests even better
things for time to coihe. Devoted to
the Interests of the advertiser, the <V-
tober number indulges In a bit of par
donable personality In presenting the.
genial features of S. E. Davidson, the
new manager of the Massengale agen
cy. .Mr. Davidson's accession to the
active management, under President St.
Elmo Massengale, has already shown
splendid results. One of the best
known authorities and experts of the
country In the profession, Mr. David
son's energy and line ability as an or
ganizer will add new vim to this en
terprising agencj’. Incidentally a num
ber of descriptive cuts Is presented,
giving little glimpses of the enlarged
offices of the agency In the Candler
building, in Atlanta, and showing how
the work of the various departments Is
carried on. .
Editorially the whtte paper question,
will'd: Is looming up before newspaper
publishers. Is ably discussed by Alan
Rogers. The present'high price of pa
per. which threatens to go higher. In
volves a problem unsolved so for.
which may yet have a meaning very
personal to every newspaper reader.
Whether It Is to be solved by a reduc
tion In the size and varied contents of
the dally and Sunday papers, or by an
Increase In their cost, remains to be
seen. The paper manufacturers claim
that the Increase Is an economical ne
cessity arising from the decreasing
supply of pulp; that the rapidly dimin
ishing forests of the United States and
their distance from the paper mills are
accountable, through the Inexorable law
of supply and demand, for more ex
pensive paper. Other Interests seem to
have had visions of modern so-called
trust methods. The question Is-one of
the greatest moment to publishers and
bids fair to occupy larger place In the
public mind In the not far distant fu
ture. The Importance of the same sub
ject Is emphasized by the reproduction
of the resolutions sdopted by Ihe
American Newspaper Publishers’ Asso
ciation of New York. These resolu
tions ask that the attention of the
president and of the Federal depart
ment of justice be called to what Is
declared to be a conspiracy In restraint
of trade by paper manufacturers. The
repeal of the duty on printing paper,
wood pulp and on all materials enter
ing Into the manufacture of printing
paper is demanded, and decisive action
by congress Is Invoked. An Instructive
article on "Some Recognized Advan
tages of Billboard Advertising." by Ah.
drew Maxwell, Is of more than ordinary
Interest both to tho professional and to
Ihe layman. Among other articles Is
one on newspaper making In Japan,
giving new Ideas of the progressiveness
of the Island kingdom, and showing
that the little yellow man is not Im
mune to the persuasiveness and sensa
tionalism of so-calted yellow Journal
ism. Also one on the "Hundred Point
Man,” by Elbert Hubbard, which adds
spice and suggestiveness to the number.
Other contributed articles and selected
miscellany make the October Issue of
Practical Advertising of spectsl value
and interest.
MAY CELEBRATE
Young Men’s Democratic
League Plans Anniver
sary Event.
A meeting of the committee on en
tertainment from the Young Men's
Democratic League will be Held Tues
day evening In the office of President
Aldine Chambers In the Equitable
building.
At this meeting Alex W. Stephens,
chairman of the committee, will sub
mit a proposition that the committee
take up the matter of appropriately
celebrating the birthday of Thomas
Jefferson, .the founder of Democracy.
"The birthday of Thomas Jefferson
has never been observed In Georgia,”
said Mr. Stephens, In speaking of the
proposition, "and I think It will be very
appropriate for the Young Men’s Dem
ocratic League to celebrate this event
next April.
“With this end In view I will submit
the proposition to the committee Tues
day night and the matter will be dis
cussed and some action probably ta
ken."
Mr. Stephens' Idea is to ararnge a
rather elaborate program In which the
entire state will feel Interested and to
Issue Imitations to such promlnet
Democrats as Governor John Johnson,
of Minnesota: John Sharp Williams,
of Mississippi, and Governor Folk, of
Missouri, to be present and deliver ad.
dresses.
It Is believed that the suggestion will
meet with the unqustlfled spproval of
every Democrat In the county and the
committee will In all probability recom
mend Its adoption by the Democratic
League.

Duty and Performance
Tlie part we have played in the material growth of Atlanta, and
any assistance wc may have rendered, while a matter of pride to us,
was done in what we conceived to he our duty. The growth of At
lanta means much to us and wc have endeavored to he among the
loaders in every movement for betterment.
We have demonstrated our faith in Atlanta’s future in many
ways. But its marvelous growth has presented new problems to us
and added difficulties for us to, overcome. The rapid increase in the
number of new subscribei's made necessary new facilities. Unex
pectedly, new exchanges were required in North Atlanta, West End,
East Point and Decatur. The underground system required exten
sion and the entire plant was practically rebuilt before its useful
ness was nearly exhausted. All this necessitated new capital and
the investment was increased to meet each new demand. d'L-io.
Our slogan, “Good Service at Reasonable Cost,” has been always
uppermost in our minds. Never have we for an instant failed to
realize our duty to our patrons and exert all our efforts to that end.
These details are matters that are apt to escape the attention of
the casual telepliQnc user. They have been before us since the first
day we began business in Atlanta.. They are pertinent as data inci
dent to the growth of Atlanta.
/
Our history is that of an enterprise starting aj; the bottom—in
the experimental stage—and growing beyond expectati on. Our
struggles have been difficult aitd our problems have been serious.
We have pot simply come into your midst, opened our hands and
waited for your dollars to fall into them. We are earning our small
profit and the whole energy of our organization is directed toward
giving good service at reasonable rates.
