BANK WINDOW ADVERTISING
Scheme for Placards That Is New and
Has Made Headway-Story Of
Western Financier.

1t now seems to be a consensus
among bankers, especially among
small town bankers, that good
strong advertising placards placed
in the bank windows play judi
cious part in bank advertising. While
the idea is practically new in this
country, it's gradual arrival in con-
nection with the growth of advertis-
ing generally throughout the United
States was not unexpected.
Some years ago merchant in a
small western town entered into the
banking business, bringing with him
an advertising instinct which he had
developed in his business. Before that
time the bank of which he became
president had covered its large front
windows from top TO bottom with a
black blind on which the name of the
bank was painted in large gold let
ters. These letters were partially OBJ
scured by massive iron picket work,
although the large double door en-
trance into the bank itself was not
so guarded.
The merchants selling instinct re-
belled against the waste of advertising
space
I'VE, too, are selling something, the
use of money" he reasoned with his
cashier. Basic selling principles are
largely the same. whatever the COM
modify. Why should we not make this
window help us get in more money
and help find more people to use our
money!" he asked. Il believe that
good sane window displays will pull
more business for us just as they used
to sell more goods in my store. Well
try it."
So the steel bars came down and
the black glaze was removed so that
all passersby some of whom did not
know what bank looked like inside.
could see right through to the presi-
dent private Office in the rear. The
big time lock safe made a much bet
ter safe place for your money impress
sion than did the old keep out" win
low bars, and the sight of others trans
acting business inside had the same
kind of attraction, though less in de-
gree, as does crowd of shoppers
around the retail counter Add TO this
a clever series of window displays in
which variety of plain show cards
strongly urged the various uses of
this bank, then apply various good
merchandise principles in other ways,
and it is not strange that this bank
actually doubled in business during
the second year of the merchants re-
gime as president.
And | know that at least 80 per
cent. of that increase is directly due
TO our show window advertising" con-
cluded the merchant banker.

Jiggs-That deaf and dumb woman
Wanted to Know the culprit.

The following story was told recent
iy by Austin Haines to a party of
friends he entertained at luncheon:
Down in little Florida town two
negro families live in shanties about
a stones throw apart. They obtain
their drinking water from shallow
open we'll located midway between the
two houses. A fence which separates
the two yards is built up to the well
on both sides. Every evening after
her days work is done, it is the Gus
tom of one of the negro mammies to
pick up buckets and go to the well for
water. One day the owner of the
property moved the fence back about
ten feet from where it originally stood.
That evening when Eliza started out
with her pail she fixed her eye on the
fence and made straight for it. Walk
ing hurriedly along the beaten path,
she plunged into the shallow well with
a splash. Her screams brought i'm
mediate assistance, and as she climb
ed out and spied the fence ten feet
away she Indignantly exclaimed:
Now, who done moved dat well?'"

NEVER GIVE UP.
BY ARTHUR w. NEWCOMB.

Napoleon was military genius.
He was brilliant, aggressive, bold
master of stratagem and lightning
like in his decision in emergency.
Won Moltke was an efficiency en-
gineer of warfare.
He had decided, before war was de-
clared, just what was the objective
point of the conflict-what he wanted
to accomplish.
Then he planned, In detail. just what
moves he must make to gain that end
His plans made. he provided, down
to the tiniest item, everything needed
at every stage of the game. He had
all these things where they were in
stantly available at the right time
and place.
His system of warfare admitted of
no unforeseen emergencies. Every
thing had been anticipated.
Grant was neither meteoric mill
tary genius nor did he have an oppor-
which he fought.
But he could take defeat after de-
feat and still keep on fighting.
After the enemy had worn himself
out beating Grant-though he had him
whipped to an utter standstill-Grant
was discovered plodding doggedly into
battle.
History has not decided which was
the greatest general.
Look around and you will find these
three types-anmong others-in the
world of business.
Not one man in a million possesses
or can develop the genius of Ma
poleon.
Few men have the marvellous pow
ers of calculation, foresight and con-
structive imagination of Won Moltke
although you and | can develop more
and more of it.
But you and land every man-can
refuse to acknowledge himself beaten:
can keep on fighting to win as long as
life is left in his body-and perhaps
afterward-The Business Philosopher

Advertising a Factor.

Advertising today is one Of the big
gest factors in the commercial world
The retailer and manufacturer no
longer asks, Does advertising pay?"
but he asks, What kind of advertising
pays best?" He realizes that he must
advertise in order to keep his business
alive and growing. In years back
when merchant went into business.
he prepared for at least two or three
years loss, before he could establish
his trade and put his business on a
paying basis. Today with the proper
advertising. he can make his store pay
all the expenses the very first year
and make a good profit the second
year This applies also to the manu-.
facturer. In years back he had to send
out statesmen to develop new terri
tory. to work UP new trade, and it took
him two or three years to put his busi-
ness on paying basis. Today the
manufacturer can put his business on
a paying basis quicker than the re.
tailer-he can start out with an ad
vertising campaign. distributing his
goods, get new accounts, make his
goods known to the consumer, and al
most over night, as it were, build up 3
profitable business.

WASN'T A FIVE O'CLOCK TEA

Two elderly chess fanatics were alb
sorbed in game at the Merchants
institute in San Francisco recently.
Both were experts and rigid follow
ers of all the rules of the game, writ
ten and otherwise. For nearly five
hours neither had spoken a word.
Backward and forward, moving and
countermoving, the game swung, with
no perceptible advantage to either
player Finally one of the old fell
lows made a fatal break Quick as
flash his opponent moved his knight
into position, and softly murmured,

The other player, making no effort
to conceal his displeasure, rose from
the game.

friend Going to quit?"
