with a desire to possess one.
The reader would say to
himself "that Victrola must
be a wonderful invention
but the idea of possessing
the instrument is to the
reader a remote possibility
something for the other
person. That is because the
man who wrote the adver-

easy it is to reproduce the

clever phrasing it gradually

the household with a desire
to possess a Victrola. 1t con

young lady's mind a new

been created in her brain
becomes a demand - and

the appeal to those who have
gone crazy over the "Fox

only a small percentage of
the population. How about
the man who loves the good,
old Southern negro melodies
who never heard "My Old

the tears coming to his eyes.
And then there is the home
pervaded by a deeply relig-

of the good old hymns
brings a hush of reverential
silence like a benediction of
beauty from the spirit world.
You cannot reach that

the fruit to the popular in
telligence. The word "cit-
rus" does not mean any
thing to the great body of
consumers. The trademark
ought to be suggestive of the
wholesome, healthful iur-
ciousness of oranges and
grapefruit. 1t ought to
"make the mouth water"
and so long as the purpose
of the advertising is to fix
this trademark in the popu-
lar mind it should be the
most prominent thing in the
advertisement.
This is the tart of presen-
tation" which lies at the
basis of all successful adver-
Using and which employs
all the arts of the clever
salesman. In the printed adj
vertisement it must do in a
few moments in thousands of
homes what the salesman of
cleverness and impressive
personality may do with one
possible purchaser. This
cart of presentation" is
more important in newspa-
per advertising because it is
the newspaper advertising
which must create the de
mand for a product. Maya
zine advertising may give in
formation about a product,
but the newspaper must
move the goods.

The Art of
Presentation

This is a high-sounding
title. We have to stand for
a great deal of high-sound-
ing rhetoric flapdoodle in
the name of Advertising.
But, after all, the principles
that underlie successful adj
vertising are very simple.
The "art of presentation" in
Advertising is the applica-
ton of literature to sales
manship. Advertising is too
ofte n m ere literature. "
This is because Advertising
h as drawn cOpy-writers
largely from the ranks of the
"literary fellows" The av-
erage salesman cannot write
a good advertisement, and
the average literary fellow
cannot write a good adver-
tisement because he is not a
salesman.
1t is one thing to give in
formation about a salable
commodity, and quite anoth-
er thing to create a desire
for it. 1t is one thing to Gre
ate a desire for an article,
and quite another thing to
create a demand for it. /
