ONES knows more about motor cars than any other man I know,”’ said a man to his friend. ‘* Hehas obtained his knowledge chiefly from motor car advertise- ments, and the catalogues and booklets circulated through them.”’ “All I know about photography,” declared a well- known amateur, “I have learned from the men who advertise cameras, plates, papers and films.’ Advertisements have been well called ‘‘The Poor Man’s University,” but other than poor men have been schooled thereby. Much of what the average individual knows con- cerning personal and domestic hygiene, modern office methods, books and authors, electricity, pre- cious stones, investments, and almost everything else, he has learned from advertisements. Advertisements have stimulated our intelligence, added enormously to our knowledge, and given us aspirations which have raised us to higher levels of thinking and living.
