CONDITIONS TODAY
(Edson R. Waite)
It is said that all centuries have favored the rich, but
only the last half century has begun to smile upon the work
ing man.
In every material respect the working man today has
privileges which his grandfather’s imagination hardly could
have conceived. Free education, more clothes and better
ones, he and his family can acquire from the movies a good
idea of the wonders of the world. Everything that happens
is reported in his newspaper, and even if they could have
afforded to buy it, many grandfathers would have been un
able to read it. Now electric lights instead of an oil lamp,
automobiles, better homes and comforts.
Nobody will deny that the world is moving stead
ily toward the greatest happiness for a greater number.
The last fifty years have seen an immense diffusion of know
ledge. It has endowed the majority with that faculty of
concentration which brings on a growth of character on
which knowledge must feed and which develops into wis
dom.
Yes, we live better and with less work, but we still
have a long way to go to become better men than our grand
fathers were.
ADVERTISING S RECORD
Lee Ellmaker, publisher of the Philadelphia (Pa.) News
says:
“Before Sir Walter Scott wrote ‘The Lady of The Lake’
Loch Katrine was just one of a lot of little Scottish lakes
with no particular claim on public attention. Yet beginning
in 1810 this lake, which Scott chose as the locale for this
famous novel, began to achieve a fame which has increased
rather than decreased down through the years. Public at
tention having been attracted to it and a romantic halo hav
ing been woven about it, Loch Katrine was—and is—no
longer ‘just another lake’ but an outstanding, important
mecca for visitors from near and far.
“I like to think of the story of Loch Katrine when I
hear the severe qritics of advertising expound their views.
Advertising, the great habit maker and habit changer, news
paper advertising in particular, has created, built and-main
tained demand for many now famous products which, like
our Loch Katrine, were just among the many similar prod
ucts until constructive advertising and sound sales plans set
them above the crowd.
“Advertising as an essential factor in our commercial
life, can withstand outside criticism because advertising i/i
various forms has rendered yoeman service on behalf of
good men and good causes long before we put it to work for
the building up of consumer demand for good products.
Bruce Barton once said that St. Paul was the first advertis
ing man because he ‘sold’ Christianity to the Athenians who
already had not less than twenty-eight kinds of religion
in vogue before he arrived. My own opinion is that Joseph
he of the coat of many colors, was the first real advertising
man. He ‘promoted’ or ‘advertised’ Egyptian corn on that

day he placed the vessel in the bag of his brother, Benja
min, and then had all his brothers ‘arrested’ before he identi
fied himself.
“Modern advertising in newspapers means overnight
mass action within a specific zone, whether it be in the form
of consumer demand for a worthy product or public interest
or action on a worthy cause or idea. Newspaper advertis
ing is news to the newspaper reader and its power cannot
be ignored.”_j
