How Rhino Charges

Once a rhino starts, It charges in
a straight line, swerving neither to
right nor left. This makes it easy
to STAY the beast from horseback.
The horseman gets the rhino to
charge, moves his horse out of the
way, and, as the rhino thunders by,
gets a magnificent shot. The rhino
has poor sight 1t sets it's course
by scent and hearing and, once
launched, doesn't see that the quar-
ry has moved.

fleet us as a people, he said.
advertising has an enormous
job to do in making the people OF
America recapture their apprecia-
ton of what we have and what it
is worth. The peaceful S of ad-
vertising in business and COM
merce must spread itself to an
American adaptation of the most
potent weapon known-the use OF
advertising as propaganda in uni
flying the thinking of a people.
I'VE believe in the newspaper
not only because the newspaper is
a potent influence in conveying the
advertising message, but because
newspaper editorial content is the
chief bulwark of the free inter-
change of ideas and opinions upon
which must rest a business system
based upon free competition. The
newspaper is essential to the dem
ocratic state, which is to say, the
business state.

''In solving the national emer-

the end that we do a better job

lief that sound business alone can
steer us through the economic diff
fculties and the revolutionary
changes which are undergoing in
our struggles to ear a happy, de-
cent living in a free society of free

I'm its essence this means that
each one of us has to fully recog-

sweating job ahead of us-t h a t
none of us all all of the answers,
and that we must work together to

else ever conceived in our world
