On the other hand, have you noted how an audience will lean forward and grasp the chair arms when tho speaker reveals enthusiasm? This applies to the written word also particularly to advertisements. When the manufaeturer really believes in his wares, his enthusiasm will almost in evitably find expression in ADVERTISING.
