20 THE TALKING MACHINE WORLD February IS, 1919 laiHlllgllllllslBIlIilSlllllIllH a . , ^ ^ , gl Edison Message No. 35 Patriotic Profits Every day the wheels of industry are turning faster ; every day the industrial activities of the nation are becoming more important. The moment the armistice was signed a vast responsibility shifted from General Pershing to you, and other merchants. Of course, you are going to take back all of your former employees who went to war — unless there are gold stars on your service flag. But that isn't enough. It isn't patriotic enough, and it isn't profitable enough. This will be a banner year for your business; all the signs promise that. Additional salesmen are not only advisable, they are necessary. And a soldier makes a good salesman. He is a trained fighter, and will fight for orders as he fought for Liberty — with all his heart and soul. So hire a soldier-salesman and begin to gather in the patriotic profits that are coming to you. THOMAS A. EDISON, Inc. ORANGE, N. J. Official Laboratory Model New Edison — William and Mary Cabinet.
