Washington, Jan. argument in the cases involving the question whether foreign ships are prohibited by the eighteenth amendment and the enforcement act from bringing intoxicating liquors into the United States in their sea stores, was concluded in the supreme court today.

Cord-O-Van Sales Agency P. O. Box 507 Alexandria, La. SO EL I Notice Store Closes Today At Noon! To Complete Plans For January White Sale Which Starts Tomorrow Baird Why One Advertising Appropriation Was Increased TWO planning partners the were campaign debating for the their next six advertising months. policyTheirs is a retail store which spent in one year $12,000 on its advertising, which was of their yearly volume, a fair expenditure in their line of business.

In growth of sales they could easily point out the homecoming of the $12,000 with a fair and reasonable profit in its train. For these two partners that expenditure was a profitable short-term investment. One of the partners spoke up: "John," he said, "we have a cash profit in the bank from that $12,000, but we have a greater intangible profit by far- is piled up for us in the minds of every man and woman in the city. "It is reflected in the attitude of our bankers. "It is present in the minds of the manufacturers who sell us.

"It is working on the minds and purses of every one of our customers. "Why," he continued, "this business, because of the advertising we have done, is worth $12,000 more than it was before we began." The two partners increased their appropriation, modestly, it is true. That was five years ago. Today, for it is in a large city, their appropriation is eight times their original amount. Their standing, with bankers, manufacturers and customers is Al.

Their business has grown and grown in a healthy way. And still as one of them put the last five years advertising has made money for us. Every cent we've spent has come back to us, and brought another with it. But, our real profit--our big profit from that advertising is banked in the minds of the people. Ours is the best known business of its kind in town.

And that is worth a lot of money to us. Published by The Shreveport Times in co-operation with the American Association of Advertising Agencies.
