Plan Htln nf'll.l'w. Advertising is an investment-not an ex- pense-and should be treated as such. Because it has been the habit of some inerchants to look upon it as an expense, alwrong view has been gained. Perhaps the misconception arose from the fact that in bookkeeping it has been the habit to charge advertising to _expense. Adver- tising produces new business-it swells the vol- ume of business and prot-therefore it is an investment. Only the man who looks upon ad- vertising as an expense, who is afraid of it, prejudiced against it, loses money in advertising. The man who treats advertising as an invest - ment and gives it the attention an investment requires--knows that every dollar rightly in- vested in this direction yields compound inter- est-and more.

He said it was snowing then and he noticed that it was still sirowin,2'. The snows` I of winter were slio\vin_r:, on the whxitening` heads of m:m_\_' whom he ' had then met, as well as upon him- self. He was pleased with the great material progress shown in Orillia, and the fine Y.M.C.A. buildin_z was )e\'i(lenee of social and spiritual ,`_ ,'1'0Wi.ll too. The interval since his `last visit had been mostly spent up- .,on the North East Coast, trying: to 1 !make life better for the men (loing; , lhusiness upon the great waters. He 1 `had to come out occasionally, as at 5 present, to enlist the synipntliy nndl: ~ help of people, to keep things swing` ` in his Lnbrmdor work. He had also i, spent one winter as ali-`Iajor in inedi-l: cal and surgical work in France`, _ Every red-blooded man should gel. there, or do What he could at homel - to win the war.
