Saturday Afternoon.

When federal court convened Sat

continued his argument for the gov.

to be- to show that the acts alleged

At this iuncture the court asked the
counsel what function the govern

vIu human a


 sire It is something more than a drummer knocking at the door of the consumer, something more than mere salesmanship on paper.
 Advertising is a positive creative force in business. It builds factories skyscrapers and railroads. It makes TWO blades of grass grow in the busi ness world whese only one grew be fore. It multiplies human wants and intensifies desires. The result is that it forces man to greater consumption. hence stimulates his production to keep up with his buying desires.
 Before advertising was developed into a fine art and before it became a factor in the commercial world the business of the manufacturer and mer- chant was to supply the normal needs and desires of the human family; mer- chandising was bounded by mans ne cessities and by his meager knowledge of the luxuries which he deemed with in his reach"

The author dismissed one of his servants. who. as he had been q tailor, was incompetent to do anything but sew on buttons. The man pro tested, What will become of me now that I have been eating your salt for such a long time and am driven out into the streets?" He was reminded that he had only been employed for a fortnight He answered that he felt it had been for years. He was told that he was no good, but his volubility on ly increased.
