There are other barbed wires than those vriiich enclosed 6,00(1,000 men in the prison camps during the course of the war. There are, at all times, moral and social harriers which do violence to the aspirations, the sanctities, the rights, of human life. And it is to be remembered that millions of men alive today carry in body and soul the deep mairks of their prison-camp experiences.

Theirs is a retail store Which spent in one year $12,000 on its advertising which was 5% of their yearly- volume, a fair expenditure in their line of business. In growth of sales*they could easily point'out the homecoming of the $12,000 with a fair and reasonable prbfit in its train. For these two partners that expenditure was a profitable short-term investment. One of the partners spoke up: “John,” he said, “we have a cadh profit in the bank from that $12,000, but we have a greater intangible profit by far—it is piled up for us in the minds of every man and woman in the city. “It is reflected in the attitude of our bankers. “It is present in the, minds of the manufacturers who sell us. “It is working on the minds and purses of every one of,our customesr.” . • " / “WKy,” he continued, “this business, because of the advertising we havp done,> is worth $12,000 more than it was before we began.” 1 j , The two partners inifreased their appropriation, modestly, it is true. That was five years ago. Today, for it is in a large city, their appropriation is eight times their original amount. Their standing, with bankers, manufacturers and customers is A-l. Their business 1ms grown and grown in a healthy way. And still as bne of them put it—. : “in the last five years advertising has made money for us. Evenr cent we've spent has come back to us, and brought an other with ft. But, our real profit—Our big profit from that advertising is banked in tlhe minds of the people. Ours is the best known business of its kind in town. And that is worth a lot of money to us. Published by The Banner-Herald in co-operation with The American Association of Advertising Agencies.
