Excerpt from Forty Years an Advertising Agent 1865-1905 The fifty-two chapters or papers that make up the contents of this volume were not begun with a thought of preserving them in any more permanent or accessible form than would be accomplished by their appearance in the columns of Printers Ink. When the first installment was given out the writer had not decided to attach his name. His feelings were expressed in a paragraph which preceded the initiatory installment and which read as follows: A man, whose name will occur to many as one who for nearly half a century has been closely in touch with newspapers and advertising, has consented to tell the story of his experience in a series of papers to be published in Printer's Ink. The first installment is here given; others will follow from week to week until it appears that readers fail to find in them very much of instruction or interest, or the writer tires of his self-imposed task, or the editor should conclude that a pressure of matter of more importance will forbid the further devotion of so much space to old stories and ancient history. As the work progressed there were evidences that the papers were being read with interest, not only by men of the writers generation, but, in business houses where advertising formed a part of the conduct of affairs, it was made to appear that they had the attention of clerks and office boys, from among whom the advertising men of the future are likely to be recruited. On this account the writers interest in his work grew more pronounced, and eventually he thought it might be possible to continue the papers through the fifty-two numbers of Printer's Ink that would make up the volume for the year 1905. That ambition having been achieved, and the series completed, a review of the many comments and suggestions, made and sent in by correspondents, appeared to indicate an interest in the story greater than would be expected for material usually considered so dry and uninteresting.

Excerpt from The Essentials of Advertising Advertising is such a big subject and the amount of material concerning it is so abundant that it is impossible within the limits of a single volume to present more than a small part of what might be written about it. In the preparation of a text-book all the author can do is to confine his attention to a few of its many phases with the hope that the student, after he has mastered the principles set forth, will desire to continue his search for advertising knowledge elsewhere. In the present book it has been the purpose of the writer to outline and discuss, as briefly and as clearly as possible, the funda mental principles upon which modern advertising practice is based, the preparation of copy, the special advantages of the several mediums employed, the duties of the more important positions, and such other information as will give the student a comprehensive view of the subject. In taking up the study of advertising it is important that the beginner should get started right and the aim of this volume is to help him get such a start. When he has assimilated its con tents he can then proceed through actual experience in the field and further study to build upon the foundation he has thus laid until he becomes a skilled practitioner of the art of advertising.

Excerpt from The Principles of Advertising: A d104 Book Little, if any, of the material found in the original volume could be omitted in a work to be used by the practitioner. Therefore this condensed edition is not to be considered as a substitute for the original. For the use of students in the classroom, however, it has been found practicable to eliminate some of the illustrative and explanatory matter and to confine the book to a presentation of the essential principles with only such illustrations as are needed to make these principles absolutely clear. A slight rearrangement has also been made to adapt the book to the methods of the usual advertising course.

Excerpt from The Business of Advertising This book is intended for all who wish to know what advertising is, and how it is done. It will be helpful to the young man engaged in some phase of advertising work, and particularly to the young man who wishes to know what advertising work is in order to determine whether he wants to undertake it or not. It is written also with the idea of helping the manufacturer whose product ought to be advertised. From it such a manu facturer can gain some idea of the various steps neces sary to bring his product to the notice of the consumer. If it only strengthens in his mind the impression that professional help is necessary, it will have served a very good purpose. The advertising agent who renders Service to his client is a very important factor in the business world. Too many advertisers are ignorant of the nature and scope of that service. All that an agency has to sell is experience, the accumulated experience of dealing with many conditions and many problems. While not pri marily a book for advertisers, the mere description of an ideal agency must show them that such an agency is as necessary to successful advertising as coast survey charts to navigation, or as logarithms to an astronomer.
