Washington, July 22.-What do
pig-club boys and girls do with their
project money? This question was
put to $50 girls and boys at a recent
meet of club members held at Pur-
due University.
1t was found that So of those
present owned Liberty bonds, which
they had purchased with their own
earnings; 109 had War Savings
Stamps; and practically everyone
had bought Thrift Stamps. Out Of
the number questioned, III had
made definite plans to apply the
money made in club work to a col
lege education.

These are August prices for govern

each month to the end of the year,
but it must be remembered that
each advance brings the maturity
date a month nearer.
But fortunately for those who have
learned to invest the story does not
end with 1919 The government has
announced itself ready to further any
mans saving plan this year and the
next and the next to the end that
the habit of thrift and saving may
become a permanent part of the ma

WORLD AID CLUBS
TO DISCUSS HOW
SATISFY LABOR
Plan Campaign at Meet Bring
Capital and Labor Closer To-
gether.

New York, July 22.-High wages
alone will not insure that men will
stick to their jobs and make their
effort productive in a maximum de-
gree. There must be, in addition to
good wages, a real understanding, 4
realization of mutually of interest,
between the employer and the en-
ploye, whether this be applied to
factory, store or farm.
This fact has been recognized by
the Associated Advertising Clubs of
the World, with the result that the
program for the world convention of
advertising, which will be held in
New Orleans, September 21 to 25,
will have for it's central theme the
promotion of advertising as an in
strument of first Importance in
bringing about just such an under
standing between capital and labor
as will insure maximum production,
with its resulting prosperity
In connection with this announce
ment of officers Of the advertising
clubs today, it was announced that
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, had
accepted a place on the convention
program, and that man equally
representative of capital, would pre-
sent the other side of the story.
1t is the expectation that in this
manner there can be formulated
some fundamentals upon which cap
ital and labor can agree, in this
movement for greater production
with its resulting prosperity.
Following these addresses, a mes
sage will be framed, to go out to
employers and employees, not at
tempting to enforce the details Of
any arrangement for an understnd-
ing, but setting forth the general
principles, and advocating the EN-
ployment of advertising as the
means for making each element in
the world of industry better under
stand the other
But the world convention of ad
vertising in New Orleans will goI
further than this. 1t will recognize
the fact that increased production
and continued prosperity will depend
upon finding markets for the goods
thus produced and again will truth
full advertising step into the dis
cussion Those skilled in creating
markets hold that markets are in
the minds of people and that
through advertising, it is possible
to create demand, or markets.
Hand in hand with the greater
production needed to insure high
wages and continuing purchasing
power, therefore, advertising must
be used to create the markets to
absorb the goods.
In addition to discussions OF these
all important subjects at the adver-
tising convention, there will also
be an exhibit of advertising, at
which will be shown complete adj
vertising campaigns, both of the kind
that have been used to insure un-
derstanding between employer and
employee, and of a market-creating
character. ....ss =
