GIRL ADVERTISING AGENT um .
T0'REPRESENT multimillion
BALTIMORE. July 25.—Kal.herine
H. Mahool. attractive young Baltimore
woman. will be the first of her sex to
represent in Europe a large and im~
portant organization of American pro~
fessional women.
At the recent Atlantic City conven-
tion of the Associated Advertising
Clubs of the \V'o'rlrl. she Was selected
by the women's advertising clubs of
the country to represent them on the
executive board of the international
body. That was the highest honor
which could be conferred upon a wo-
man in the advertising profession and
it was the second time she had receiv-
e.) it.
So next year. when the Associated
Advertising Clubs of the World meet
in London. she will be the official re-
presentative of all of the women in her
profession in America.
Miss Mahom is very modest. She de-
clares she has no message to give the
world and expects to have none. She
is not an evangelist nor reformer—but
those who have watched her career in
Baltimore realize that nevertheless she
always does have a message—the
message of good. hard-headed com-
mo .nse—and she is a worker.
In Front Rank.
An unusual combination of intellect-
us] and "human" qualities has brought
this young woman, still in her twenties
to the f‘ront ranks of her profession in
a remarkably short time. Only five
years ago she first became connected
with the advertising business as copy
writer for a Baltimore department
store: but a Celtic nimbleness of wit.
combined with a broad humanity and
unusual balance. has opened doors to
her so rapidly that she now manages
a successful advertising business of
her own. as well as haflng attained
highest honors in the representative
organization of her profession.
Her first job was addressing envel—
opes at $6 a week. in the office of a
belting company. Advancing step by
step. she held a secretarial position in
an insurance company in 1918. when
she ran dthe notice of the advertising
manager of a department store calling
for a woman who could write about
women's c'othos.
Up to that time ate had written
nothing much except her personal
correspondence and a little “stunt"
writing for friends. Applications for
the department store position being
few and her enthusiasm being high.
she managed to land the Job. At the
end of the weeek she was so scared
with her responsibilities that she
wanted to quit. but the manager per-
suaded her to stay by offering an in-
crease in salary.
Joined “Ad" Agency.
After having been with the depart-
ment store for 18 months she decided
that experience in an agency was the
next step. so she camped out on the
doorstep of one of the largest local
agencies until they let her in. After
an experience with another agency.
where she superintended a‘ of the
copy writing. she was engaged to do
the advertising for a large wholesaler
of women's wear.
With this varied experience and
with many friends she had made a-
mong merchants and other advertis-
,_ rift. «I
I
i;
‘ F
err. she opened her own office in 1920
and from the beginning was successful.
Two years ago she was elected»
president of the Women's Advertising
Club of Baltimore and still holds that
office. Last year she was elected for
the first time to the executii'e board of
the Advertising Clubs of the World
and was again elected this year.
Although Miss Mahool entered a
business office directly upon' leaving
high school. she has continued her
academic education every year by
taking courses at Johns Hopkins Uni-
versity in the evenings. She believes
that the freedom she has exercised in
selecting only those courses which in-
tercst her most has been of greater
benefit to her than if she had pursued
a. regular college ‘course in which
much of the curriculum was pre-
scribed by college rules.
Says It’s-War .
When pressed for the secret of her
success. Miss Mahool declares it is due
to nothing but hard work. Being
modest. she refuses to admit that be-
hind the hard work is a mental dyna-
mo. productive of some of the best
ideas in advertising. an inexhaustible
sense of humor. even when the joke
is upon herself. and a frtendly attitude
toward the world and people in
general.
There is latent also a fiery streak of
fighting blood—inherited. perhaps.
from her ancestors of the Scotch
Highlands. several generations re-
moved—but that is apparent far less
frequently than the friendly smile.
At 'leo, Baby Races
‘ Through Alphabet
WEST BEND. Wis. July 26.—Wil-
liam chcreisen Jr.. son of Mr. and
Mrs. William Feierelsen. at the age of
two and a half years. is believed to
possess a mentality that is developed
to a remarkable degree. Before he
was two he manifested such sdeptness
at learning without the usual pains-
taking methods that people were as-
tounded.
Some one gave him an A. B. C. book
last Christmas and in a short time he
knew the whole alphabet. including
many of the little verses that accom
panied each letter. by heart. He will
tell you. without hesitatlng. each lot
ter of the alphabet. He remembers
everything upon being told once. He
does not use the usual baby prattle in
his speach. and likes to sing a song
entitled. “I'm Going to Write to Dad-
dy." He can write some of the let-
ters of the alphabet.
Billy is especially fond of tools. His
father is a machinist at a local garage.
When asked what certain tools are
for. Billy can tell you. He has a kid-
die kar. which he likes to take apart
and put. together-again. Ona day he
saw a little boy with a toy automobile
on the street. who seemed to have
some trouble with it. Billy advised
him that he “needed a patch." and im
mediately set about repairing the little
lad's auto with a patch. He is fond
of automobiles. and when asked what
make he likes best his answer is “A

COUNTY FARM
' BUREAU TOMEET
The Fairiield County Farm Bureau
is offering its members and all other
farmers of the county an exceptional
opportunity this year to visit one of
the largest commercial farms in New
England on the occasion of its annual
field day. to be held this year on
Saturday. August 4th.
The E. C. Converse estate. known as
Conyers Farm. consists of 2,000 acres
located in a beautiful section of
Greenwich. Some idea of its rating as
a business proposition may be gained
from the fact that it earns an annual
gross income of $100.000-3125.000 on
fruit alone. its products being said to
rival the finest California fruit. Some-
thing of the extent of the establish-
ment can be imagined when it is kept
in mind that in the busy Season. some
300 people are carried on the payroll.
Special features of interest here in-
clude or' ards numbering 80.000
apple. p . . pear. plum and cherry
trees: 10 res of asparagus: 1.000
laying hen poultry plant: one of the
heaviest milking herds of pure bred
Guernseys in New England; and a
cold storage plant for fruit.
The tour through Cnnyers Farm will
commence about 1:30 o'clock standard
time. after a picnic lunch has been
enjoyed at Hill Top Farm in the
Banksville section. where the day will
start at 10:80 o'clock with an inspec-
tion of the Berkshire hogs. owned by
Mr. F. L. Spiekerman. Mr. Spieker-
man's famous show herd is conceded
to be one of the best in the county
and the privilege of looking over these
hogs and seeing how they are housed
and cared for. makes the day a com-
plete and well rounded one for any
farmer. The speaking will also take
place here doing the lunch hour. at
which time. brief talks will be given
by various state and county Farm
Bureau officers.
It is through the kindness of Mr.
Spiekerman. owner of Hill Top Farm.
and Mr. George A. Drew. manager of
Conyers Farm. that the Bureau is able
to extend to the farmers of Fairneld
County. such an invitation. It should
bring together the largest gathering
which has ever assembled for a Farm
Bureau field day in this section. in
spite of the fact that. owing to the
extent of the attractions at Conyers
Farm and the time it will take the
farmers from the northern part of the

noon will have to be dispensed with
this year. This may be the last time
Conyers Farm will be thrown open for
an inspection of this kind. and no one
should 'miss the opportunity to visit
this very remarkable and constantly
growing and developing enterprise.
every branch of which is in charge of
experts in their respective lines.
Signs will be posted in and about
Greenwich indicating the direction
which should be taken for reaching
Hill Top Farm. The nearest route
for many residents in the northern
part of the country will be from Dan-
bury to Ridgefield. to Bedford. N. Y..
where Farm Bureau arrows will
commends to point out the rest of the
way. An agent of the Bureau will
leave Danbury at nine o'clock stand-
ard time. and will guide any groups
who wish to follow. via Bedford. For
the southern part. of the county. the
best route. no doubt. will be along the
post road to Greenwich.
POLAND MAKES GOOD
(Wall 81. Journal)
Initial payment of 8995.000 made
by the Republic of Poland to the
Baldwin Locomotive Works on ac
count of 150 locomotives sold to that
country in 1919 on a deferred pay.
ment plan vindicates the faith which
President Samuel M. Vauclain has
steadfastly shown in the new republic
notwithstanding the difficulties which
beset its early life as a nation. The
Polish locomotive credit was one of
the prize bear cards of speculators
for a decline and it has been played
many times in the last three years in
stock market raids. But the confi-
dence of President \‘auclsin in the
future of Poland was never shaken.
and the first payment on account of
principal was made the day before it
was due. as has every. semi-annual in-
terest payment.
In confirming the Polish payment
cs. :9
r .
F. de St. Phalle. vice president in
charge of foreign sales ”of Baldwin
Locomotive. said: “We received on
June 30 the payment due‘us by the
Polish government July 1 for loco
motive bonds and interest amount-
ing to 81,288,775. This payment has
been made‘on time as have also at:
other payments of interest previously
due since we entered into a contract
with the Polish government in 1919.
“‘va anyone is surprised- at (his
statement it is the result of lack of
familiarity ith Polish business. Ever
since the establishment of the inde-
pendence of Poland and especially
since the repulse of the Bolsheviki in
vasion win 1920. Poland has been'
making uninterrupted progress. Some
Americans don't realise that. Poland
is destined to be one of the most im-
portant nations of the continent of
Europe. but this is the fact. never
thelesa' Poland has a population of
80,000,000. with perhaps the largest
and best natural resources or any
country on the continent. The Poles
are extremely intelligent. determined
to manage their 'own'attairs and do-
ing so successfully. Many questions.
of course. remain to be solved. but
law. order and progress prevail in
full. Therefore. why should there be
any reason- to doubt that such a nu:-
tion will fulfill its obligation? We
have never had any doubt on this
matter.” .
More than 70.000 crows that
menaced the fruit crop. have been
killed in British Columbia in the last
two years.

are in Brazil. ‘
