If you are really to begin your career as soon as our scholastic education is completed, rd, (practical experience counts greatly in the long run. Use your spare time to study theory. You can start in the advertising de- partment of a publication, in the same division of an industrial concern, or in an agency. You may not be able to earn more than $20 or $25 a week as a beginner. In most cases that will be all you will be worth to your employer. Remember, however, that your earning power will increase in the proportion that you show you possess the stuff ot which advertising men and women are made. It doesn't make any particular differ- come masters of all the technical phases of advertising, but you will need a general knowledge of them before you decide to specialize in the work for which you are best fitted. If you have the faculty of making and keeping successful contacts with clients you will find satisfactory and highly remunerative work in the field of handling accounts for an agency. Research workers are in demand and are well paid. So also are the writers of advertisements and artists. You will not have to wait long to be earning a satisfactory salary if you have real ability.

Each article has been prepared by a leader in some one field. Frank Presbrey is direct- ing head of an advertising organiza- tion bearing his name. He was a newspaper editor and publisher be- fore entering advertising. He is widely known as a writer and is a graduate of Princeton. | OU have to possess salesmanship Y of a high order if you are look- ing forward to a successful career in advertising. The aim and purpose of the business is to sell goods on an increasing scale. To accomplish this advertising reaches millions of prospective customers. With- out it, in the highly developed stage of | the present day, American industry would never have made the enormous | ject should be to learn the business and to gain experience. When you have | served your apprenticeship you can con- tinue your career in whatever brauch | most appeals to you. The chief thing for the beginner is to get a job and to buckle down to work. Your superiors will watch you closely. It is to their interest to advance those | who show real aptitude. They are con- | stantly seeking those who can qualify as good organizers and have the ability | to plan along logical lines. After all, the success of an advertising campaign depends upon the skill and soundness with which it is mapped out, rather than on the advertising copy alone. In these days of large scale opera- tions, when the advertising appropria- tions of big concerns run into millions of dollars every year, the survey of the field, the method of approach, the means to be employed, all come before i the actual writing of the copy. The last thing done in a campaign s the as easily removable as any | strides that have marked recent years. ‘You will need broad vision, keen ob- preparation of the advertisements, “Marie, How Do You Keep Your Skin so Lovely?” .

But it is by no means necessary that you take special courses at the expense Knowledge of People. ‘You should know the newspapers and periodicals of the country and the class of people they reach, for they are the medium you will employ to get your message to the consumer.

These are problems which daily face the underwriter. Fire insurance companies do not insure property, but do insure and safeguard the interests of persons or corporations in property. The property owner’s character, financial ability to poesess and maintain the prop- erty, the usefulness of the property to its owner, his fire record, if any, and other pertinent particulars, concern the under- writer. Property to Be Covered The type of property to be covered, be it dwelling, mercantile, manufacturing or per- sonal property, as well as construction, oc- cupancy, fire protection, exposure, damage- ability, amount of insurance carried compared with the value of the property, along with many other conditions, must be studied by the underwriter. The underwriter is equipped with insur- ance maps, surveys, engineering data, con- fidential character and financial reports, fire records, and other information upon which to base his judgment of a particolar line of insurance. Broad Experience Underwriters of Stock Fire Insurance com- panies are men of broad experience who are carefully trained in the selection of de- sirable, and in the avoidance of undesirable, risks.
