accomplishment OF my administration"
Mr.. Dobbs wires from Atlanta, just after

went TO interest the advertising clubs OF
that section in the work OF the national
associa alton and succeeded in inducing them
to join.
The Pilgrim Publicity association includes
not only Boston, but numerous others In
the New England states and is one OF the
most famous in the country.
It was the Pilgrim association which
originated the adcrafters creed, which says.
Il believe that advertising men will get
all they deserve. l believe that advertising
is a science and the practice of 1t an art.
Protect me from the cant OF the unfailtng
system, from the temptation TO knock the
work or character of another, and from the
necessity of advocating a damnably bad
cause for good wages In preference to a
good one for poor. Give me strength to be
a booster always-a kicker never-and that
1 may always play the game like a gentle
man. And in the end. may God protect me
from the belief that am superior in knowl-
edge or performance TO my brothers and
find me a place IN the Sacred City OF ouI
Ideas" ...
