The Advertising Man
he New Republic


The advertising man. the genius Of
America, is usually young. cookbook
ing, sartorially perfect. with sleek hair
and parti-colored shoes. Conscious
ness of the eminence of his position in
American business has made him as
complacient as Douglas Fairbanks. He
does not conceal his awareness of the
fact that he is the cornerstone of the
most respectable American institutions;
the newspapers and magazines depend
on him; Literatue and Journalism are
his hand-maidens. He is the Fifth
Estate :. James Cabell speaks
with accuracy of the great American
weekly which prints fiction among it's
advertisements. Yet for all his dig
nifty, the advertising man is good
fellow none the less. At lunch time he
is lavish and fluent, fecund in anec-
dote He is on the right side of things,
the optimistic side. He has no use
for morbidity, irregularity. He is as
patriotic as George M. Cohan. Usually
he Is married and does not conceal from
you the fact that his salary is twice
that of the President of the University
from which he didn't graduate, since
he deserted academic maunderings for
the actualities. But he is likely to
respect college presidents. Since they
are themselves, along his own line, not
meanly equipped.

From The Review.

from Inc REVIEW.
1t is not surprising that many should
now begin to desire that our dead be
brought from France and restored, now
ever pitiful a fragment, each to ms
family. 1t is very primitive and hu-
man yearning, one not rudely to be
brushed aside; yet those who feel 1t
might we'll consider whether their de-
sire is at the moment wholly wise and
reasonable Many, we know, are hardly
capable of reasoning in matter like
this; their instinct rises from strata
that were laid down in our common
humanity before reason began to work
To such, an idle cenotaph is mockery,
a shrine without it's relic to heal and
console Yet to satisfy, and by no
means surely or with a complete and
lasting satisfaction, this instructive de-
sire to live amidst our own dead, con
sder what must be done. The kindly
reticence of many thousand graves
must be invaded, their pathetically
broken Weddings carried through land
burdened already to the breaking point
with grievous sense of loss, SUD-
jected to all the restlessness and I'M
certainties of the ocean, and here dis
tributed from one end of the country
to the other. No, particular disappoint-
ments would be too many and the gen
eral indignity of the proceeding too
painful, to admit of it. Roosevelt spoke
wisely: TN the place where the tree
falleth, there it shall be-" And the place
is worthy of them. By the side of
comrades with whom they shared the
great vision of life and death, in the
fields which their blood shall serve
again to make beautiful, their simple
monuments lovingly rendered for all
time and hallowed by the reverent
visitings of whole world, let them
rest in proud tranquility. Let us leave
them there with their enduring glory
