Cheerful and Helpful
Advertising Urged

NEW YORK, Jan S.-"The store
that keeps up a running fire of
cheerful, helpful advertising during
the public's trials and tribulations
is the store that will have the first
dance when the music begins to
play again" Bernard F. Gimbel said
yesterday in discussing how to ad-
vertise in wartime.
Writing in the current issue of
New York University's school of re-
failing magazine, Gimbel. head of
q chain of stores, suggested:
That the store sell itself as an or
eanization sympathetic with and
aware of what the customer is 60
ing through; that the store be frank
about that part of its operations not
now up to peacetime standards.
that the store pay customers the
compliment of exact facts about
wartime industries.
