Burglars Shun This Sign
When they sec it on a door they pa;? along
to the unprotected store, recognizing the fool
hardiness of attempting to rob a place protected
by the Holmes System.
The instant an attempt is made to force an en
trance to protected premises an alarm is auto
matically flashed to our Central Office. Our
men respond on the double-quick and a loss is
, prevented.

As the ClockTicks
Three hundred and fifty telephone calls. a sec
ond I
That is' the average volume in the Bell Sys
tem day and night, and at certain hours it Is
more-than doubled.
' The operating force must keep the "tracks"
clear, ready for every cross-town or transcon
tinental call. In these unprecedented times the
importance of each connection is magnified,
as is the necessity for steady performance on
the part of the operators, who are servingtne
nation just as positively as are the battalions
of telephone men in France or the construction
and installation forces that are building and
maintaining the constantly increasing neb
work of wire communication on which the Gov
ernment and its business agents are depend
ent every minute of the day.

They are counting no effort too great, andthey
are also counting on the public to appreciate .
this and to accord them the consideration
which they at all times deserve.

Strong With The Strength
Of A Million
We think often of our debt to you.
You are one of a company of more than a million
who buy the Cosmopolitan each month.
Something in its pages calls out to something in
each and all of you, and you answer by buying it.
Yours is a brotherhood of complex but common
interest and attraction.
If you stop to think of it, indeed, it is a brotherhood
very like to the brotherhood of American democracy.
It is a light and loose bond that binds you to the
Cosmopolitan, and yet it is a hard and fast bond.
You are under no constraint, subject to no com
pulsion. Each month you exercise your free, untrammeled
will.
You buy the Cosmopolitan more than a million
of you because you wish to buy.
You are attached so closely to the Cosmopolitan
by the ties of interest and enjoyment, that you do
not wish to break away.
You come back again, and again, and again.
That is the strongest of all strong and unbreakable
associations.
When you buy the Cosmopolitan, month after
month, you buy it in response to twelve irresistible
impulses one for each of the twelve months of the
year.
These millions of fresh, strong impulses constitute
the Cosmopolitan the tower of strength it is to reader
and advertiser alike.
That is why we say we think often of our debt
to you.
It is to you million Americans we owe the
strength of our advertising pages.
It is these millions of impulses bringing you back
again and again, that make these pages priceless.
These millions of impulses spell intensity of
interest.
They spell continuous confidence.
They have made the Cosmopolitan the first and
foremost advertising medium among the monthly
magazines of the world.
