from the experience of the most sue
cessful business houses of America
is that the time to go five years
ahead of your competitors is in an
off year when they are waiting for
business to get good before they ad-
vertise. The expense of such an adj
vertising campaign for 1921 could
well be charged proportionately to
the. next five years-as an invest
ment in goods will help the retailer
when he needs help most.
'The advertising of house like
Hart Schaffner & Marx is paid for
by the competitor who does not ad-
vertise in dull times. 1t takes ten
times as much electricity to start
an electric car and get up momen-
um as it does to keep it going-and
the same is true of advertising."--

manufacturers. Many may retrench
in every department, but there is
one department of any business to-
day that should be expanded = in
Iceland that is the advertising
department.
'Retail dealers will appreciate ad-
vertising help now-especially local
newspaper advertising = more than
any year during the past ten. Local
newspaper advertising Will be the
card Of introduction and the key to
more new orders for 1921 than any
other means. And rightly so. Nine
teen twenty one will be the time to
cement dealer relationships, and
those manufacturers who send their
statesmen out to sell goods without
an adequate plan in definite form to
help that dealer sell the consumer
might as well keep their statesmen OFF
the road-they will not sell enough
goods to pay their railroad fare.
, "Neither will the dealer listen to
the fairy tales of general or national
advertising-national mediums. That
talk has been worn threadbare. What
the dealer wants is to have the ad-
vertising appropriation spent in his
own home newspaper that he reads
and all his customers read, and -
you talk to such a dealer you will
find he is in favor of small copy

occasionally at the height of the
selling season. He knows that you
cannot expect to advertise today and
sell tomorrow.

who starts his campaign in January
and strengthens it. each month will
find at the end of six months that
the advertising has brought big re-
turns in sales. The manufacturer
who buys advertising on that basis
and with SUCH campaign behind
the right product will encourage the
dealer to stock the goods with full
confidence that the consumer will
buy the Advertised products.

cause Of overstocked conditions, but
will not do so now.
"Twelve months advertising, in
season and out, insures successful
retail sales for the retailer. Manu-
facturers like Hart Schaffner q
Marx know this to be true, and as
a result are building their plans in
that direction instead of advertising
three months in spring and three
months in the fall.
"The department store knows the
value of all the year advertising
and when business is dull then they
redouble their advertising effort and
use more space to bring customers
to their stores in dull times than they
do during the busy seasons.
National advertisers of automo-
biles, tires, packing house products,
food products of all kinds, hats,
shoes, household goods Of all kinds,
stocks, bonds, insurance, railroads
all can advertise profitably in dull
times and advertising can be used as
business tonic to tone up sales
departments and sales forces, and
they in turn can use it as their best
weapon to overcome the present buy
ing vacuum.

Manufacturers have many prob

concerns, which has built its bust
ness. very largely because Of the CO.
operation and the help it has given
in every way to the retailers who
sell its goods-Hart Schaffner and
Marx-is setting an example worthy
Of emulation of other manufactur-
ers whose inventories are large and
whose dealers are stocked.
Chart Schaffner & Marx persuad-
ed their dealers to exert their full
powers to craftsmanship to sell goods
at a time when other dealers spent
their time grumbling about business
conditions, poor sales and the bad
weather.
"Hart Schaffner & Marx adver-
tised bigger and better than ever be-
fore in their history-three columns
ads, six column ads and full pages
all with only one idea in view, and
that was to get larger percentage
of present business for their retail
ers. This institution did not wait
for cold weather-it advertised win
ter suits in September and October,
when we still had summer weather.
This made the dealers feel that if
Hart Schaffner & Marx could af-
ford to advertise to help them sell
clothes in a backward season, the
least they could do was to meet the
advertising half way and make every
attempt to cash in on this wonder
full and unprecedented newspaper
advertising campaign.
''What is the result? Hart Schaff-
ner & Marx are in better condition
today and have a smaller inventory
than they had year ago-and their
dealers stocks are below normal.

CAN N EO

In our more or less witty slang the product of the phonograph is frequent ly referred to as "canned music The phrase is commonly used dispara ging- ly. But canning is one of the most useful arts that civilization has de- veloped and it takes one of it's high est forms in the mechanism of the phonograph.
 A leisure half hour might be spent pleasantly and not unprofitably in re- calling some of the uses of canning" Of course, fruits and vegetables are conserved in that way for future use and the shelves in the grocery and the hubbish piles in the alley tell elo-, quently of service to men along that line.
 But very many of the things that make life worth while are canned" products that would not otherwise have been available Books are the "c0nned" wisdom or foolishness of the ages. Without this "canning" process the wisdom of Solomon would have died away on the eastern winds and Shake speare and Isongfellow and Mahon and Bancroft and of all scientists and seers and singers would have died with their own generation.

NEW YORK. Feb 7.-Is there any thing we can do in America to bolster up the foreign exchange situation?
 America has wilfully shut her eyes 10 the economic position of Europe and has wasted a precious year in which she has inflated her credits in wild in dustrial expansion and has dissipated the resources with which she might have helped Europe.
 Our government. since last May. has shown little capacity for understanding economic data and there has peen d lack of financial leadership to supplant that which the government has failed to give.
 The business interests of the coIn- try might well unite in sending to points in Europe some of the most able men in America, who would a1- thoritatively translate present finan- = cial and economic data so that the American business mind would com Trehend the situation.
 When we understand. I believe we shall have both altruism and courage to faceouh responsibilities and to a as- sume the position of world leadership.
