"The way I figure it ADS make JOBS!" Take me. I’m a lumber mill worker. And take this ad. It tells people how much they can save through the use of forest products. Advertising like this is one big reason why the lum ber business has just about doubled in size in the past twenty five years. And it's a big reason why there are more homes to build, more work for people like me, more money go ing into the pockets of everyone in the West. The way I figure it, advertising the lumber business — or advertising most anything else — helps all of us. Advertising Helps You Live Better for Less! Advertising Recognition Week, February 19-25
