Our cards are especially appropriate in wording,
and will be engraved with your name, which is the
only way of depicting individuality and exclusiveness.
Don't Throw Your Dollars Away
•Just because they are worth
about fifty cents if SPENT now.
Deposit them in this bank
and in a few years they will be
worth more than their present
purchasing value.
It is the SPENT dollar that
is CHEAP—The SAVED dollar
is still VALUABLE.

The prices of Edison Phonographs
have increased less than 15 per cent since
1914, and a substantial part of this in-
crease, is the 5 per cent tax, which the
Edison Laboratories pay to the Govero-
ment.
The Edison Phonograph of today is a
better phonograph and a better value
than the Edison Phonograph of 1914.
On the other hand, the dollar of today
is worth, in purchasing power, only a ’it
tie more than half as much as ’he dollar
of 1914. Therefore, if you buy an Edi-
son Phonograph at this time, you are
virtually buying a before-the-war value,
with an after-the-war dollar.
Why was it that Edison did not in-
crease his prices and how did he avoid
the necessity of doing so? Any commer-
cial agency and practically any invest-
. ment hanker can ascertain for you that
the Edison Phonograph Laboratories
were doing business, in 1914, on a nar-
rower margin of profit than was true of
any of the other established phonograph,
or talking machine, manufacturers. How,
then, did Edison manage to avoid an in-
crease in his selling prices?
The story is dramatically interesting.
The following is only the essence of it:
When the United States of America
entered t-he Great War. Mr. Edison drop-
ped all his work at the Edison Laborato-
ries and enlisted in the army of Ameri-
.gan men of science, who pitted them-
selves so successfully against the world-
famed German scientists,
cier, on his recent visit to
ited Mr. Edis-m with a
winning the war for the Allies.
New York American of September 5th
describes, at length, some of the inven-
tions. which Mr. Edison developed and
placed at the disposal of the Lovern-
ment. In this article, 1he New 'lock
American states that Mr. Edison appears
to have been the moving spirit of the
Nsval Consulting Board of the United
States.
When Mr. Edison gave up his own
business for the business of the Nation, a
Very critical situation existed in his Man-
ufacturing Laboratories, due to their in-
ability to obtain various materials, and
the necessity of finding satisfac tory sub-
’ stitutes for such materials. If there was
ever a time in Mr. Edison's career, when
his personal attention to his business was
required, it was when he went to u’ftr.
Thomas A. Edison had reason to believe
that he was risking enormous losses, by
1. deserting his business, at the particular
time in question, but he did not hesitate,
and his example had a remarkable in-
1
music in their homes
nerve-racking days.”

nograph with a Soul.” made it desired

The real self-respecting American who < an cheer-

in the Edison organization, everyone
seemed determined “to make good, while
the Old Man was away." Vacations
w ere,passed up and dcHdms' orders were
ignored by zealous employees, and, as a
result, the Edison Manufacturing Labor-
atories were one of the few manufactur-
.ing concerns in the United States, where
there was no loss of efficiency, during
the war, and where there* was. in fact,
an inc rease in efticiehcy.
During the war, Mr. Edistm spent most
of his time* on the sea coast or at sea. On
those rare* occasions, when he visited the
Edison Laboratories, it was difficult to
gain his attention, for more than a few
minute's, with reference to business mat-
ters. He* did, however, state* that the
Edison Phonograph was his pet inven-
tion and he hoped that his business as-
sociates would be able, in some way or
other, to avoid any increase in price*, and
that, if there must, be an increase, he
wanted such increas\to be just as small
it could possibly be macle. Mr. Edi-
