lie so expressed himself in an address
lost night nt the Ilellovue-Htrntford,

"Forget this business of plnying the

MAY DROP BONUS SYSTEM
Mnvor Moore will confer todai with
leprcsentatlves of the city's police and
firemen nnd will, explain to them the
city's financial situation to obtain their
views on the amount of the proposed
increase In their pay.
Tomorrow Council's committee on
public safety will meet to take up the
administration's plans for bringing
about the pay Increases, according to
Alexis "J. Limcburncr, chairman of the
safety committee.
It will be impossible at litis lime to
grant the police nn Increase to S." a
day, Director Cort61you and the May
or's financial statisticians believe
There is nlrcady a deficiency of ap
proximately $1,800,000 In the appropri
ation for the police nnd firemen for
this year nnd it has been found that
nn additional appropriation of about
$1,200,000 would be necessary for the
proposed Increase to $5 n day. It is
understood thnt Mayor Moore will tell
representatives of the firemen nnd
police today thnt the reason there Is
no money available for granting the
Increase is because the Vare-Smitb ad
ministration, during its closing weeks
of last year, appropriated money kiiIR
cijnt to carry xu the police and fire
bureaus for only ulne months.

Advertising Managers of
Real Calibre
Lp VERY concern that advertises should
' have an advertising manager.
He should be a man of real calibre, with a
real salary, and with a real responsibility.
Wc recommend the appointment of an
aggressive advertising manager every time,
if one is not already appointed.
He will be as helpful to us and to the suc
cessful outcome of the advertising and mer
chandising plans as we will be to him. Wc
co-operate to the fullest extent with the
real advertising manager.
Advertising is not only a means of in
creasing distribution and consumer demand
it is a vital factor in creating new and
better conditions in the internal organiza
tion as well.
It broadens the vision of every executive
it increases the respect of every salesman
for his house it promotes team spirit and
co-operation all 'round the board.
Time and again managers and salesmen
have told us that the advertising campaign
we prepared for them made better men of
them, increased their value to their concern
and to themselves.
V
The value of this understanding of ad
vertising is apparent; the proof of its suc
cess is in the fact that the average life of
an account with us is seven years and six
months.
The average life of accounts with agents
in general is eleven months.
Our business in 1919 increased more than
150 per cent.
Large expenditures in advertising were
made through us in 1919 and 96 per cent, of
their volume was from concerns that had
been through the first year, "prove-up"
period and had been using Donovan
Armstrong service for a period of years.
That 150 per cent, increase in our business
was based on absolute confidence in our pre
dictions as to results and on our ability to
make good our predictions.
Already we arc mapping out bigger cam
paigns than ever, for our clients. Clients
already are still further increasing their ad
vertising appropriations and 1920 prom
ises to be a much bigger year for us than
1919.
Yet with it all our organization keeps
pace, our system gives each present and
each new account the same enthusiastic in
terest that makes success inevitable.
We will tell you more in detail of our
methods if you will drop us a line. You
will be under no obligation and we have an
interesting story of success to tell.
