Don't Advertise and Go Broke"

Startling figures relating to fail
ures in business and non-advertisers
were given to the Cincinnati Ad Club
last week by Jesse NJ Josephs, of the
Josephs Advertising Agency. In his
address on What Should a Store
Spend for Advertising 2" Mr. Josephs
said among other things: Figures
obtained from a financial agency
shows that out of all the failures in
large American city during the year,
Sc per cent of the firms had not spent
a dollar on advertising, IA per cent
of the firms spent about $500 year
apiece; not one had really advertised.
Judicious advertising is founded on
facts, figures and research. want

YOUR DOLLAR AND MY BOY

/ want to thank you, friend.
You must know the heartfelt graft

But I've had many a heartache
since.
They say he'll pull through now all
right-because they found him just in

Did your dollar bring my boy back
from No Mans Land2
Did your dollar take the stretcher
so close to the thick of the firing?
Did your dollar bring him the water
he pleaded for in his delirium?
Did your dollar bring him back to
the base hospital where they gave
him almost a mothers care?
Iwant to thank you if it did-for
your dollar has given me back my boy
it has brought him back to me out
of No Mans Land, where many sons
are going where many will remain.

Would Care for 100000 Men
Estimates were put before the con.
ference showing that approximately
$4,000 nurses may be called into war
service in the next IS months. This
number should be able to care for
an army of nearly 100000 men in
the field. More than 10000 Of this
number are already enrolled in the
Red Cross, available for instant SER
vice.
How to replace these nurses drawn
from civil hospitals without impairing
the efficiency of these institutions is
one OF the principal problems now con-
fronting Red Cross officials. Appeals
are being made by the nursing depart
ment of the Red Cross, of which Miss
Jane A. Delano is chairman to enlist
college women and others at once in
accredited nurses training schools,
where they can be properly fitted to
take up the work of the nurses with
drawn for service in hospitals abroad.
Home Training for Women
Efforts are also being made to train
women at the heads of households n

that they ca look after many of the

tin by Gabriel K. Keawehaku. His
idea embraces an electric mechanism
operating lights on the front of every

proper owner. The mechanism would
be operated by a key lacking which
a thief would be unable to flash on the

that he had no right to the car.
He suggests that to be effective a
colored lighting system would have
to be employed and that it be made a
