Millions of purchases are inspired by ad- vertisng. When the volume of buying is high, business is good and there are many jobs. It is not only the ability of consumers to buy goods but also their desire to buy that makes factories run at full speed. Ad vertising is one of the greatest stimulators of buying desire that has ever been known.
 New industries depend on advertising to get started A factory is built to manu- fracture clever electric razor. No one ever heard of such thing before. Hardly any body wants to buy the device until the manufacturer explains its advantages in national advertising campaign. Almost inn mediately, thousands of men buy these ma chimes and the company increases produc- tion. The result is lots of new jobs for factory workers and travelling salesmen.
 Advertising has built many other new industries, big ones and little ones. Similar ly, advertising has expanded countless old industries. Raw material and other related industries are directly benefited In every case it means more employment, more wages. Our whole economic life is speeded up, the national purchasing power is en- larged, and everybody's income goes up.
 The merchandising force of advertising is very important among the various factors responsible for our having the highest wage level in the world, with a buying power nearly twice that in Great Britain, two and one-half times as great as in Germany, and more than ten times as high as wages in Russia In more ways than one, advertising gives lift to the pay envelope.

There is lot of advertising in this country and it has a definite purpose. It is there because somebody wants to sell us Jello, Ford Automobiles, Spearmint Chewing Gum, Pepsodent Toothpaste, Frigidaires, and Sunkist Oranges. We know that advertising helps to sell these things and thousands of others, and we know that it provides valuable information service to consumers
 That much is plain, but did you ever stop to consider that advertising affects your per sonal income No matter what your occupa- tiOn the amount of your salary or wages IS affected by the total volume of advertising on the part of all manufacturers and store keepers everywhere. This statement is worth examining.
 In this country, we produce and consume more than twice as much goods for every man, woman, and child as is produced and used in other principal countries of the world Why is this? Not merely because we have vast natural resources. Not just because we are better at inventing and or ganizing. It is mostly because we all want so much to have the good things in life and because we have the individual ambition and energy to get them The purchasing power of American people is used all the time and it revolves very fast.
 This is where advertising comes in. It creates desires for new things and encour- ages ambition for higher standards of living. Suggestions from advertising are often re- sponsible for the purchase of new living room rug, an automobile, better clothes, or a new kind of breakfast food.

Looming large on the list Of

in view of the new armament
race among all the larger powers.
Inevitably there has risen in
this connection the old argument
over types of warships most
needed. Many contend that the
cost of new battleships Of the
largest class is too great, and that
they are likely TO be at the
mercy of aircraft and submarines
in any war of the future. Most
naval authorities however, believe
that the battleship is as essential
as ever.
Without presuming TO pass on
this question. it is pertinent TO
note the enormous increase in the
cost of first-class battleships
over a period of years. Prior TO
the World War, the largest bat

VdIeRtine' s Day

A series of misunderstanding
shaped our observance of Valen-
tines Day. Most People know
that their was a ST. Valentine,
but few could even guess how he
is honored by sending ones best

OF candy in a heartshaped box.
st. Valentine was not a match
maker. He was one of the early
Christian martyrs His day in
the church calendar is Feb. IA.
In some European countries
having climatic conditions quite
different from our own, many
warm days occur in the middle Of
February and birds return and
begin nesting. Naturally out
door parties welcome the smiling
season and young mems fancies
lightly turn to thoughts of love.
St. Valentines Day was chosen
for a rather curious method of
promoting acquaintance among
young people. Names were writ
ten on slips of paper and drawn
lottery-fashion. The girl whose
name was drawn by q boy became
his valentine. He sent her a
gift and maybe eventually MARI

From then on until the finish, the
