One' of our salesmen, a University of Nebraska
student, remarked the other day:
"Last summer, man after man said to me: 'Is
your company going to
put out a History of the
War after the war? Like
everybody else I want
a reliable history, one
that is absolutely au
thentic. If I am sure that
it is really good, I would
be willing to pay almost
any price for it.' "
Your p r.rents and
friends feel the same
way; so doas every pa
triotic, progressive mer
ican citizen.
The Barnum Cor
porations of which
The R. C. Barnum Com
pany is the largest are
meeting this demand.
They are publishing a
History of the World
W a r so authoritative
that General Peyton C.
March has consented to
write the Introduction.
General Pershing has
written the story of
America's participation
in the war. And such
men as Secretary Baker
and Secretary Daniels
are among the thou
sands of America's
prominent men who
have purchased copies
of it. A Barnum Book
is a Good Book Sell
ing our books, you can
be absolutely sure that
yrou are selling reliable,
authentic, and up-to-date
works.
We are going to employ 50 University men next
summer to sell our History of the World War. We are
going to contract these men immediately, spend an av
erage of 50.00 to 60.00 on each of them, give them
PROFITS PER DAY
These are the men University of Minnesota stu
dents whom our new Lincoln manager contracted
and trained last year. These records were made dur
ing the summer of 1918 without the war book to sell
and with war time conditions to overcome. Only six
of the men named had previous selling experience.
"Barnum's success depends upon making students suc
cessful Barnum-trained men make good!"
