Tells Of Part Advertising
Is Playing in Winning the
War at Home and Abroad

The members of the Harrisburg
Advertising Club and q number of
guests attended the regular meet
ing of the club at the Y. NJ. c. A.
last evening.
Dinner was served and those pres
ent had the pleasure of listening to
three excellent addresses.
Dr. Robert Bagnell gave a very
interesting talk on What Advertis-
ing Is Doing to Win the World War;
and explained the tremendous influ-
ence that advertising has had in
bringing about the wonderful results
accomplished both in the United
States and the other allied countries
He clearly defined the power and
potency of advertising not only as
commercial agent but as a means
OF conveying to the people the prin-
clples and objects of propaganda
whether 1t be national, religious, or
OF some other character. He fur
ther explained what advertising has
done and is doing, and pointed out
the wonderful service that it will be
called on to perform in the course
of readjustment after the war.
Rowe Stewart, president of the
Poor Richard Club, and advertising
manager of the Philadelphia Record,
spoke of the small beginning and
wonderful growth and influence of
the Poor Richard Club, and of the
great work being accomplished in
many other cities in this country and
Canada by such organizations. He
spoke of the pleasure and personal
benefits to be enjoyed by member
ship and complimented the Harris
burg Advertising Club on its auspl-
clous start and predicted that it
would prove a big factor in the COM
mercial and civic life of the city.
Andrew Patterson, president of
the Chamber of Commerce and pres
ident of the Union Trust Company,
commended the purposes of the
club and spoke of the cooperation
that may be brought about between
the two organizations. He reviewed
the great change that had taken
place in the character of business
and the ideals of the public and
spoke of the still greater change
that no doubt will prevail after the
war. He illustrated the benefits that
would follow the getting together
and interchange of ideas to meet
the new conditions.
1t was unanimously decided to
offer the services of the club to
movements, national or local, in
which it could in any way be helpful.
Several new members were ad-
mitted. The meeting was in charge
of Harry E. Provost.
