AN ADVERTISING CREED THAT SPELLS PROSPERITY 1 The New York American publLhcd | recently an "Advertising Creed" from which we quote the following: "I believe, with one of the foremost I Apostles of Advertising, that the- first i requisite of success is not to achieve! the dollar, but to confer a benefit— " and the rewards will come auto’Tut-i ically and as a matter of course. That when advertising makes a successful' sale it must also make a friend. That ( falsehood makes for friction, while truth is a lubricant. That the fraudu-i lent withers before the fact. Thai, righteousness is a form of common | sense. That commerce is eminently i a divine calling. And that, business is the science of human service. "I believe, with other wise men: | That life is what we make it —and that i business is a big part of life. That ur. j less we are in it to win, it is better j not to be in it at all. And that the [ man who labors for the love of it is the man who is doubly paid. That ad vertising is the fire under th.- boiler i of business, and we must keep these | fires hot if we expect to attain and ; maintain success. That one step | won’t: take you very far you've go to | keep on walking. That one word ! won t tel! folks who you are— you've ! got to keep on talking. That co-op | eration is the mo; t far-reaching bus- I iness word in the English language. ! That to live up to its full meaning i; I to proiit by advertising’s mighties t ( power. And that is advertising, as Ini all thing's, success lias no foe but fear I no limitations eave those tli.it are ‘ our own. That, therefore, courage and I confidence and energy in advertising , are as sure to win—as sure to bring, irosperity in this year of 1920 and the ; coining years—as tiie dawn of tomoro\v' brings a new day.’’ WILL LOSE COAL SHIPMENTS (United Press Service) Buenos Aires, Feb. 2C —(Special to Daily Democrat) —The United Stales stands to lose coal marketed here worth SI,OOO a year through her embargo on exportation of gas coal to South America, importers bore ’day said. They urged at least a partial lifting of the embargo, allowing a minimum of one cargo a month to be sent I here.
