Entered at the postoffice in Deep.tur, Indiana, as second-class matter. Without advertising , America’s titantic efforts and achievements during the war would not have been possible, Francis H. Sisson, vicepresident of the Guaranty Trust Company of New York, declared In ad address before the advertising council of the Chicago Association of Commerce. Advertising, he added, has never before been so universally recogniz- I ed as one of the most powerful creative and constructive forces in the world. ‘iLike every other absis element in our existence,” said Mr. Sisson, “advertising has undergone changes add has caught the spirit of the dawning era of a new peace. It has been ' quickened into a new life; it has acquired new potentialities. Never before has it exerted such influence over the minds and hearts of mankind. It has reached and stirred our souls to the sublimest sacrifices. “It matters not that this power resulted from the most intense emotional period in the world’s history and that it was due chiefly to patriotic fervor, for advertising was largely instrumental in creating the very emotion and patriotism from which

it gained its greatest strength of appeal. “Each reacted upon the others; each developed the other. And for the first time advertising sounded the depths of human nature. It penetrated to the elemental in human nature. “That Is the paramount lesson, as it was the paramount achievement, of advertising during the war. That is the foundation ui>on which advertising must work in building the business of the future. That is the basic trth of which we must not lose sight. "We realize as never before that advertising is limited only by the limitations of human nature; that its laws can no more be codified than can those of human nature; that every new discovery about human nature furnishes a new factor in advertising knowledge is only fragmentary, incomplete, disjointed, and defies definition in concrete, precise, axiomatic terms, even as our knowledge of human nature. “It is well that we understand these fundamental facts; that we comprehend how ideas have changed the world over; that we sense and study the new human environment which exists today and which transcends academic formulas or doctrinaire nol tions. I “For there is a greater need today than ever in the past for scientific knowledge of commerce, distribution, trade conditions, finance, economics, psychology and art,—in brief, all human knowledge—in the advertising profession.” That new tax law must be wide in scope when it not only triples the valuation of properties and consequently increases the tax of every taxpayer, but compels a person to pay twice on the same thing. The Fletcher Trust and Savings Company of Indianapolis, which has fallen a victim to the law in this regard, has brought suit to test the constitutionality of it and the public doubts very much if such a law should remain on the statute books. It’s going far enough to increase the taxes, much less compellinga person to pay taxes a second time on his property. At least it will be difficult to convince the taxpaying people that a law framed with such ar intent is a good one. Toot your hern, take a look, slow down and keep to the right and there will be less accidents and automobile smash-ups. Those who refuse to drive at a moderate rate of speed can be dealt with in another manner. SOCIETY Club Calendar Tuesday. Tri Kappas—G. T. Burk Home. Thursday. Epworth League Social—Herman Myers.
