FRENCH ADOPT
u. S. AID SYSTEM
Data Supplied To Be Us
ed AS Aid To Industry
Demonstration

American advertising methods have
been commandeered by France as an
aid in the regeneration of her COM
merce and industry.
M Etienne Demour of Paris, ad-
vertising professor at the "Ecole,
Technique de Publicite," and institu-
ton subsidized by the French minis
try of commerce, is the leader in the
movement to acquaint the advertis-
ing men of France with the publici-
tv methods which have helped to
make the U. S. A. the richest nation
on earth.
Prof. Damour is general secretary
of the French Conference des Chefs
de Publicite" ASSOCIATED Advertis-
ing Clubs of the World) and is devot-
ing his energies to the restoration of
French commerce.
He has chosen the system of
scientific advertising procedure
which has been worked out by John
son, Read & Company, of Chicago.
This system is being used in con-
nection with addresses which Prof.
Demour is delivering before French
advertising Clubs, commercial organ
lizations and in his classroom work.
George H. Read, vice-president of
Johnson, Read & Company, who was
the primary factor in developing the
system of advertising procedure
which is to aid in rebuilding French
commerce and industry gives the
following information in regard to
the method:
Il have summarized, in their logi-
cal sequence, the fundamental prin-
ciples which must be taken into con-
sideration in the preparation and pre-
sentation of successful advertising
campaigns. The plan was developed
as working basis for our own or
ganizatiOn and for the use of other
advertising agencies which are ade-
quately equipped to render the thor
ough-going service which it demands"
The intense interest of French ad-
vertising men in the methods of
American advertising agencies is indi-
Gated by Prof. Damours correspon-
dence with Johnson, Read & Com
pany. He says: Would you mind
letting US know your own organiza-
ton in its great principles? What
are the different departments? Their
work inside and out? Of course, we
do not intend to intrude in the pri-
vacy of your business, but all of US
over here would be most thankful
for any information that could help
US to establish more firmly our au-
thority over the French commerce and
industry, and in doing so, to recreate
nur national rrocnarit1y
You intimate that your method is
not designed to teach but to guide.
I am very certain that it will guide
many American ADVERTISE ed pub.
fishers. But in Franz :, it Will NOR.

CEORCIA'S WAR
BOOKS RETURN
Nearly 1000 Volumes
Coming Home For
New Duty

Approximately $500 of the books
which were provided through the
generosity of residents of Georgia
for the army, navy and marine corps
during the war are being returned
to this state by the American Lib
rary Association, after having seen
service literally in all parts of the
world.
The books, among them many tech
meal volumes, recently were shipped
from New York by the American Lii
brary Association to Miss Charlotte
Templeton, secretary of the State
Library Commission at Atlanta. Miss
Templeton will have charge of circu-
lating the books throughout the state.
They are expected to relieve tempo
rarily the need for wider public IL
brary service, which, since the war,
has been acute, in Georgia as in ev-
cry other state. Statistics recently
complied by the United States Com
missioner of Education show that
there are public libraries for only a
fraction of the the population of the
state.
In view of this need, the American
Library Association expects to re-
ceive substantial support from the
residents of Georgia in it's undertake
ing of a nation wide effort to extend
public library facilities. The Asso-
citation is gathering a fund of two
million dollars with which to carry
out this aim, as well as many other
features of a program which will
make the public library a vital force
in building up an intelligent, pro-
ductive citizenship throughout the
entire United States. In the work
of collecting funds, Duncan Burnet,
Librarian of the University at Athens
is serving as regional director for
South Carolina and Virginia.
An institute of the regional direc-
tors from the entire country now is
being held in New York for the pur-
pose of perfecting plans for collect
ing the two million dollar fund, and
pushing the much needed work with
all possible vigor.
In the use to be given the books re-
Gently returned to the states, the re-
quest has been made that the war
service purpose of the books be re-
membered and that especial effort
be made to meet the needs of ex-
service men with them. Since demob-
ilization, the American Library Asso-
citation has found it necessary to
maintain a huge mail service for
lending books to former service men
who are now in home communities
which do not have public libraries.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1920-02-22

The books recently sent to this state
will probably be used as travelling IL
braries.
Several millions of books were
worn out by heavy usage in the
camps, hospitals and training stations,
but the American Library Associa-
ton was able to salvage more than
one million volumes from its war
work in America and overseas. Of
these, large quantities are being re-
tanned by the army and navy fer per-
manent library work, and many are
being used by the A. l.. A. for con-
tinued library service to the mer-
chant marine, coast guard, light
houses and hospitals of the Public
Health Service. In apportioning
among the states the several hundred
thousand books remaining, the Amer
lean Library Association based it's
figures upon the number of men who
entered the service from each state,
and also upon the relative reed of
books as indicated by the number of
books in libraries of each state in
proportion to its population.
The war library work taught thou
sands of men to make intelligent use
of books. In the past six months, IL
braries in every state have reverted
that they are overwhelmed by the de-
mand, especially for useful books
on technical or vocational subjects.

This Town Has Coal
But None To Burn

POTTSVILLE, Pa, Feb. 21.-This
city is built above what is reputed to
be the biggest bed of anthacite coal
in the world, and yet for days fami-
lies here have suffered because of lack
of fuel. The reason is that the
streets are filled with snow and are
for coal wagons.
Fires haN e been kept going in some
cases only by burning wood that
could be spared from other uses and
by the breaking up of old furniture.
Mayor Mortimer has called for volun-
teers to clear the streets and afford
relief to the poor.
