Total cash and charge sales, money due from customers, money owed by merchant, money in bank and in cash drawer, expense of doing business. Manager's importance Mr. Walker adds; approximate value of goods in stock and profits.
A merchant should have at most tongue's end five facts about his business. At a session of Merchant's Week at the University this morning, he talked to students at Machine Co., Detroit, listed the five facts needed daily as follows:
"The live merchant wants to know whether his business is increasing or decreasing, and if increasing whether his profits are increasing in the same proportion, the goods responsible for the largest per cent of profit, and those that are handled without profit or at all loss. There is no way of thinking about it of things excepting by keeping accurate records, showing just what is accomplished from day to day, month to month, and year to year.
"Figure facts serve as guide posts to buying, selling, delivering and practically every other activity of business. These facts may be obtained by devoting just a little time each day to the work."
One argument in favor of newspaper advertising is its close proximity to the trade it is expected to reach, which lends itself to intensive cultivation and must be considered in a class by itself for this particular purpose—direct publicity. This was the conclusion reached by Andrew N. Chicago, in a talk before Kansas merchants in Lawrence this morning.
"For cultivating a local field the retailer will find the newspaper his best servant," Mr. Fox said. "Much of the success of newspaper advertising can be traced directly to the principle of training a learner in the daily visits—to look for certain times at certain times at certain places. A review of the careers of successful retailers establishes the fact that their suc-

there is often advantage of this.
"The there is only one kind of advertising which is good advertising." This is true whether it happens to take the form of a newspaper ad, a window display, a counter display, or the attitude of a clerk in making a sale. Good printing is an important item, and should be given proper attention. Good advertising is nothing more than storing the proper information about products of good goods. The kind of goods may vary, but the law is always the same."
Mr. Fox cites the increased sale of automobiles since 1900 as a result of advertising campaigns. In 1900 there were 1200 automobiles in the country. In January of 1915 there was an automobile for every seventy-five of the entire population. Large numbers of automobiles must be moment of this industry to the educational value of advertising," said Mr. Fox.
"The effect upon industry, and indirectly upon the masses, if for a year all advertising were suddenly to disappear is inconceivable. No substitute could be found or agent produced to do its work."
"If you can't advertise quit. You can't afford to waste your time." can't afford to waste your time on it". Andrew N. Fox, advertising manager of the Benjamin Electric Manufacturing. Gave this visit to Kankan Seminar men attending the Merchants' course at the University this morning.
"The purpose of advertising is to create a selling atmosphere," said Mr. Fox. "Salesmanship is extracting from sketches and blue prints, screws and rivets, pulleys and belts, that which will appeal to the user, presenting the article in such a manner that the prospective customer can easily understand it to purchase money to get it. This is salesmanship, and advertising is salesmanship with the multiplication table thrown in."
