A MISSIONARY OF MODERN COMMERCE.
Mr. Gordon- Selfridge Ijas sent the following message to the organisers of the International Advertising Exhibition, held recently in London: “The Publicity Man is one of the missionaries of modern commerce, and if there are any so old-fashioned as to question that fact I would ask them to'picture a world of journalism, if, for some reason, it were suddenly deprived of its advertising pages. Let a man think of the brightness and good cheer of the many posters drawn by well-known artists which often do so much to brighten an otherwise unattractive, wall “Let him imagine the world without that push and go which advertising gives to business, and he will acknowledgeno matter how prejudiced he has been—that this recently developed science is a wonderful factor in the world’, proCress.”
