SERVANTS WITH
REFERENCES
E VERY housewife of today commands a retinue of servants.
Modern industry places them at her disposal. Many serv
ices, which in the past meant early rising and back-breaking
toil for the women of the household, are today performed deftly
and unobtrusively by the inventions of modem science.
Like her grandmother, the woman of today wishes to know
something about the servants she employs. She prefers to have
them vouched for by some responsible person. So when the
manufacturer comes out squarely and advertises his vacuum
cleaners, kitchen cabinets, washing machines, electric irons and
gas stoves, she knows that he is standing behind his product.
She can feel that her confidence in the honest service of his
goods will not be abused.
That’s why it pays you to read the advertisements. Through
advertising you learn not only what is good, but what is trust
worthy.
i
An advertisement is more than a reference—it is a
certified check of satisfaction.
