Egyptian history makes not a sin
gle mention of Moses or of the Exc

fight from Egypt save what Moses
wrote.
AT best, it was only a few hundred
people who hiked, but the account
makes the whole thing seem colos-
sal and magnificent. And best of
all, the high standard set has been
an inspiration to millions to live up
to the dope.
The phrase, The Chosen People
of Cod was a catch-phrase unrival
ed. Slogans abound in Moses that
have been taken up by millions on
millions.
When Moses took over the Judaic
account, Jehovah was only a tutelary
or tribal god. He was simply one
of many. He had at least forty
strong competitors. The Egyptians
had various gods; the Midianites,
Hittites, Philistines, Amorites, Am
monites had at least one god each.
Moses made his god supreme, and
all other gods were driven from the
skies. What turned the trick? I'll

1t is not deeds nor acts that last
it is the written record of those

gone About the best we can say
of the days that are gone, is that
they are gone.
The Adscripts and the Adcrafts
look to the East. They worship the
rising sun. The oleo of authority
does not much interest them. They
want the Kosmic Kerosene that sup
plies the caloric.
A good Adcraftscripter is never
either a philophraster nor theolo-
gaster-he is pragmatist. He
seeks the good for himself, for his
clients, and for the whole human
race. The science of advertising is
the science of psychology. And psy-
chology is the science of the human
heart.
The advertiser works to supply a
human want; and often he has to
arouse the desire for his goods. He
educates the public as to what it
needs, and what it wants, and shows
where and how to get it.
The fact that you have all the busi-
ness you can well manage is no ex-
cuse now for not advertising.
To stand still is to retreat To
worship the god Terminus is to have
the Goths and Vandals that skirt the
borders of every successful venture,
pick up your Terminii and carry
them inland, long miles, between the
setting of the sun and his rising.
To hold the old customers you must
get out after the new.
When you think you are big
enough, there is lime in the bones of
the boss, and a noise like a buc-
cancer is heard in the offing.
The reputation that endures, or
the institution that lasts, is the one
that is properly advertised,
The only names in Greek History
that we know are those which Hero
dotus and Thucydides graved with
! deathless styli.
The men of Rome who live and
tread the boardwalk are those Plu-
tarch took up and writ their names
large on human hearts. All that
| Piutarch knew of Greek heroes was
what he read in Herodotus.
All that Shakespeare knew of Clas-
sic Greece and Rome, and the heroes
of that far-off time, is what he dug
out of Plutarch's Lives. And about
all that most people now know ot
Greece and Rome they got from
Shakespeare. Plutarch doomed his
Roman friends and matched each
favorite with some Greek, written oi
by Herodotus. Plutarch wrote Of
the men he liked, some of whom We
know put up good mazuma to cover
expenses.

none equals Moses, who lived fifteer
centuries before Christ. Moses ap
pointed himself ad-writer for Deity
and gave us an account of creation
from personal interviews. And al
though some say these Interview
were faxed, this account has beer
accepted for thirty-five centuries.
Moses wrote the first five books o
the Bible, and this account includes
a record of the authors romantic
birth and of his serene and dignifeC
death. Moses is the central figure

as they scorn the offered hand on
Friday afternoons, for centuries to
come.
Virginus lives in heroic mould, not
for what he said or did, but for the
words put into his mouth by man
who pushed what you call virile
pen and wrote such an ad for Vir-
ginius as he could never have writ
ten for himself.
Andrew j. Rowan carried the Mes
sage to Garcia, all right, but the
deed would have been lost in the
dust-bin of time, and quickly too,
were it not for George II. Daniels,
who etched the act into the memory
of the race, and fixed the deed in
history, sending it down the corri-
dors of time with the rumble of the
Empire State Express, so that to-day
it is part of the current coin of the
mental realm, a legal tender wher-
ever English she is spoke.
All literature is advertising. And
, all genuine advertisements are liter
ature. The author advertises men,
times, places, deeds, events and
things. His appeal is to the univer-
sal human soul. If he does not know
the heart-throbs of men and women,
their hopes, joys, ambitions, tastes,
needs and desires, his work will in
terest no one but himself and his
admiring friends.
Advertising is fast becoming a
fine art. Its theme is Human Wants,
and where, when and how they may
be gratified.
1t interests, inspires, educates-
| sometimes amuses-informs and
thereby uplifts and benefits, lubri-
eating existence and helping the old
world on it's way to the Celestial
! City of Fine Minds.

He VINO imagines that modern ad-

Advertising is the education of
the public as to who you are, where
you are, and what you have to offer
in way of skill, talent or commodity.
Life, now, is human service, To

Nothing goes but truth We

Academic education is the act of
memorizing things read in books,
