V ' tvm Advertising Is Not a Thing to Be Tried Out K The day when the Philadel phia manufacturer needed to try out advertising is past. Advertising has been tested and proved in too many indus triesunder too many different conditions, to be any longer on trial. The manufacturer himself needs to be put on trial, perhaps, to find out whether he is equal to advertising ' Whether he has the courage and skill to employ it rightly Whether his business can stand the spotlight Whether his organization can keep pace with the demands that will bes forced upon it. In the face of the record of years, in the face of the successful application of advertising to prac tically every industry in the face of an ever-widening field no in telligent Philadelphia manufac- turer can conscientiously say "Advertising won't work in my business." Today in The Saturday Evening Post may be seen the advertising of: Pullman service Fraternal insurance National political parties The telephone Granite Great railroads Financial institutions The U. S. Marine Corps Lumber Iron and scores of other products or services which, a few years ago, were thought unadvertisable to say nothing of hundreds of more familiar commodities. We do not suggest to any Philadelphia manufacturer that he make a trial of advertising. We do suggest that he put his own business and his own personality on trial and find out how he can apply to his own problems a force that has been, long since and over and over again, proved effective and economical.
