Maxwell President Explains Company's
Advertising Policy
Points Out That Scrupulously Honest
Advertising Makes For Business Success

Some striking comments on the
fundamental value of honesty in adj
vertising are contained in state
ment by Walter E. Flanders, Presi-
dent of the Maxwell Motor Company,
Just issued to the company's dealers
and representatives. The statement
Is concrete explanation of the aims
behind the company's advertising
policy.
In view of the national movement
in the direction of sincerity and truth
in advertising, Mr.. Flanders remarks
have a profound and timely interest.
While his views necessarily relate to
the Maxwell Motor Co., they may
easily be taken to apply generally
to national advertising of any charac-
ter. No strain on the imagination is
required to give his remarks broad
application, so that, literally con-
strued, they strike at the very root of
what those who have the best inter
ests of advertising at heart have been
agitating for long time.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS
Among other things he says:
THE public has it's introduction to
a business house largely through the
medium of advertising. In this as in
other instances, the first impressions
exert great influence and the line of
least resistance is to have those first
impressions favorable. If our adver-
Using contains exaggerated. sensa-
tional or untrue statements, the puO-
lie will inevitably conceive q CORES
ponding impression of the company
behind that advertising. An we can't
afford to put any obstacles in our
own path, even though they do De-
ceive few unsuspecting people and
momentarily stimulate our sales. We
are going to be in business a long
while and a lasting foundation cannot
be built on mere stratagems.
Maxwell must mean something. 1t
must make known that behind the car
there is an institution-not a dealer
or salesman or any other represen-
tative-but an institution; big,
healthy permanent institution posses
sing aims and ideals, whose product
naturally will reflect its good name"
INSTITUTIONAL MERCHANDISING
Speaking of the institutional" idea
behind the Maxwell advertising policy
Mr.. Flanders says:
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1916-05-18

Institutional merchandising, which
includes advertising and selling, is
not an Idle theory. 1t is not vague
sophlstry. 1t is real and urgent ne
cesslty. The biggest ana best known
industries III the world are founded
on II ana have their whole Deing IN It,
They are not mere businesses. They
are INSTRUMENTATION or inter-
national in their scope and their
present eminence was attained
through the character and ideals they
possessed and that they have made
known to the public.
Maxwell has started to institu-
tionaliZe. Maxwell advertising will
create and indelibly impress on the
popular mind a definite and distinc-
tive idea
"A recognized standard of value,
utility and excellence that will sug-
gest itself with the word Maxwell
an unconscious appreciation of the
ideals, the methods, the sincerity, the
vast resources, the integrity-the
very Spirit of the Maxwell Motor
Company"
TRUTH IN ADVERTISING
On the subject of truth in adver-
Using, the statement reads:
IAN essential element of institu-
tional advertising is truth. Unless
you can accept as literally and wholly
true the statements made in Maxwell
advertising, you cannot do justice to
the Maxwell car and the Maxwell Mo-
tor Company-you cannot truly re-
fleet the Maxwell organization and
you cannot have the necessary conf
dence in the ideals and honesty Of the
Maxwell Motor Company. Let US have
this clearly and definitely understood
by every man now and for all time.
Wherever you see Maxwell ad-
vertisement--no matter whether 1t is
in national weekly, standard maya
zine, trade publication or local news
paper-you know or should know
that you can pin your faith to it and
assure your prospects, your neighbors
and your friends, that every word Of
that text is fact.
1--WE make an honest product and
we insist that honest methods be en-
ployed by Us and all of our men in
selling 1t. This, then, will be the ex-
preston of truth in Maxwell Institu-
tional Advertising"

times as MANY TONS as the coal pro-
duced during the year, must be pumped:
out of the anthracite mines every year.
According to the chief OF the Pennsyl-
vania department of mines the timber
ing is an even greater expense than
the pumping. The cost of placing this
vast forest below ground is stagger-
ing. I.
The cost OF the material is given as
about 6.5 cents per cubic foot for
round timber and 20 cents per cubic
foot for sawed timber. At the lower.
figure this would make 80, 900. 900 cubic
feet cost $3.50, 900. In addition to this:
there are millions Of mine ties. and
heavy white oak is used for the mine
cars. The use of steel timbers, which
are being adopted on account OF their
longevity, for main gangways. turn
outs, pump rooms and shaft and slope
bottoms, will add to the total cost Of
mining for the next few years, hut will
effect a final saving. Most Of the tim.

DIVIDE YEARS INTO CYCLES
Chinese Have a Custom Which Is Un,
like That OF Any Other People
on the Earth.

Among the many extraordinary Gus.
toms OF the Chinese is that OF band
Ing years together In groups OF twelve,
called cycles" and naming each year
VI the series after some animal. Thus.
the first year Of a new cycle is the
year OF the rat, the second the year
OF the OK, the third the year Of the
tiger. Every Chinese born in the year
OF tho rat belongs to the Order of the
Rat, and 30 on. The animal class OF
every Chinese man and woman is thus
recorded, and is held to be OF great
Importance In f%oretelling the future.
Another curious fact about the Chi
nese reckoning OF time is that In the
Celestial empire q child is held to be
one year old as soon as born. With
the absurd superstition 80 dear to the
oriental mind, a baby boy is frequent

ANGUS OLD LONDON CHURCH
.. Georges, I'm Hanover Square, Has
Long Been Identified With His.
tory of Ensiand's Great.

Famous st. Georges church. in
George street, Hanover square, was
the work of James of Greenwich. One
supposes that this is the best known
church i'll London, for it has been the
scene of fashionable marriages almost
from it's earliest day.
Here Sir William Hamilton was
welded to Emma Hart; here the duke
Q. Sussex was Joined to Lady Augusta
Murray, about the results of which
circumstances Lord Eldon tells us
with such gusto; here the notorious
Lola Monies, who ruined a king and
caused a revolution, was married to
Mr. Head (not Heath, as the name is
SO often wrongly given); here the Iron
Duke might have been seer on in
Vulnerable occasions giving away"
the brides at fashionable weddings.
One wonders how many who have
trodden those well-worn steps. or
waited beneath that ample portico,
have yer asked themselves who de-
signed the church which, seen from
Hanover square. stands GU proudly
from the adjacent houses.
Even Ralph, who wrote certain criti-
cal observations on London's build
ings, and generally managed to fall
foul OF most of them, has a good word
for st. Georges and the poetic voice
OF Wordsworth has also been raised
IN it's behalf!
