great man, finding the only armchair
in the room and dropping heavily into

Mr.. Cartwright recovered his work

fort.
See here, Brouillard. you know you
never make any money by being short
with me. Let's drop It and get down
to business. What l wanted to say IL

tai reply.
Well. enough's enough. and too
much OF a good thing scalds the hog
before you're ready to dress It and cut
it up. It's all right for you to run men
in here by the trainload and scatter
en- out over your scaffoldlng-the

town-but you needn't sweat the last

you don't want me to do-what then.

The quiet retort jolted the stocky
man in the armchair as IL It had been

with a nervous twinkling of the little
gray eyes. You've no business being

The time he took to eat his hurried
meals at Bongras' could be measured
in minutes. and what hours he gave
to sleep no man knew, since he was
the last to leave the headquarters at
night and the first on the work in the
morning. Twice, after the renewed
activities on the great wall had be-
come a well-ordered race against time,
and the concrete was pouring into the
high forms in steady streams from the
ranked batteries of mixers, Mr. Cort-
wright had sent for Brouillard. and on
each occasion the messenger had gone
back with the brief word; Too busy
during working hours And when a
third messenger came to inquire what
Mr.. Brouillards working hours were
the equally blunt answer returned was:
"All the time"
In the face of such discouragements
Mr.. Cartwright was constrained to
pocket his dignity as mayor. as the
potentate Of the exchanges. and as
the unquestionable master OF the surly
young industry captain who refused
to come when he was called. and to 90

News Element a Factor
in Modern Advertising

The News Element in Advertising
was the subject Of the talk made by
Lee Anderson, commercial manager of
the Hupp Motor Car Corporation be-
fore the Youngstown, Ohio, Advertis-
ing club. In part he said:
Y have watched for someone beside
myself TO saw something about this
news element in advertising. Up to this
time ! seem TO have a monopoly on
this subject. In my opinion, the news
element in advertising is one OF the
biggest factors in every advertising
success, and in the importance which
advertising in general holds in our
modern economic scheme.
And in our day we have come TO re-
gard news as intelligence on some
event Of importance. Thus we say
good news" or bad news" News al
so, from purely newspaper viewpoint
is recent intelligence which is consid-
cred of interest 10 the greatest num-
Der Of readers. The wider the interest
the more such tidings are regarded as
big news
Consider the front page of your
daily papers. Here is the news which
the editors consider most Important
because OF greatest interest 70 the
greatest number Of readers. Yet how
much OF it IS vital TO YOU?
Henry Ford goes TO Europe in a ia
naccal attempt 10 consummate peace
do you care? The German govern
ment sends across the Atlantic a 500
foot submarine carrying 1000 tons Of
dyestuffs for the United States-is II
anything in your young life? And yet
quite incidentally the arrival OF the
U-boat Deutschland" consummated
one OF the greatest feats of salesman
ship IN the history Of the world.

High-Salaried Counsel
on Advertising Accounts

An illuminating idea OF the immense
importance which advertising has as
sumed in the industrial development
OF the nation is furnished in the recent
refusal Of an annual minimum retain
er of 100000 by an advertising man
who graduated a dozen years ago from
the editorial department of a small
town newspaper.
Instances of retainers equally large
and even larger are not uncommon TO
t5e- legal ana =hnanCial world. The
Schwab organization is frequently cit
ed as q sort OF breeding g-ground for
huge earnings and several of the big
financial houses like Kuhn-Loeb.
employ counsel whose annual retainers
are calculated in many ciphers. But
advertising has only taken rank with
the older professions in this respect
within the last few years; and the
present instance is the most impressive
Yet recorded.
The advertising man in question is
Theodore F. MacManus, of Detroit,
Michigan, who declined the honorar-
ium because il involved the removal OF
Chicago, insisting that infrequency OF
contact with his Detroit clients and
responsibility for too many other ad-
vertising accounts might lessen his ef-
fectiveness.
Mr.. MacManus has for several years
acted as counsel TO Dodge Brothers,
the Cadillac Motor Car Company and
the Hupp Motor Car Corporation; and
for the past year, has written and ex-
ecuted all of the advertising for the
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company.
