 The committee also will study In terunivcrsity relations and furnish 10 the international committee data on courses of study in various uni- vcrsties and the extent to which they are or should be given interna- tional recognition,
 Methods 10 establish Internal re lations between scientists and steps fo facilitate their researches have been started by the international hodv and the American group will do It's share in this respect.

So That's What 1t Does!
From The Modern Priscilla, August, 1925)

(From The Modern Priscilla August, l925)
 am thinking of modern economic force that serves everybody. See if you guess it's By it the manufacturer increases the volume of his saIes By it he speeds up the distribution of his goods to the four of the earth By he is enabled to mpro;e the quality of his goods and at the same time to de- their cost By it he puts his product into the channels of trade at assened expense By it he makes nnuemerable savings only part of which he keeps for himself.
 By this same force the dealer profits also. The stock he carries in and out of his store faster with it's aid than without Because of he reduce profits on individual sales, and at the time increase profits total sales. Through he enabled guarantee the quality of the goods he ses gaining reputation thereby Under the benefcent operation of this same force the consumer-you, your family your unces, aunts and cousins, and all your frends-lkewise profit Through its influence the goods you like be bought in more paces-n city, town and country. The prices you pay are lower. The quality you get is higher.
 Surely you know the name of this wonderful modern economic force. It is advertsng! Let tell you that advertising is the servant of the few. It is the servant of all
 If you haven't acquired the advertisement reading habit by all means cultivate it.
