To Make the Nation Prosper (1915)
Produced to aid the movement for promoting the purchasing of goods made in America. "Buy a Bale of Cotton" is on everyone's tongue. That slogan was the start of a great national movement, to not only bring back lost prosperity on account of the war, but to increase the internal trade to a point that has never been surpassed. Miss Genevieve Clark, daughter of Speaker Clark, is promulgating this movement on a practical basis, namely, to buy all-made-in-America goods, and to this typical young American girl the nation already owes a lot, which debt will increase as the success of the movement progresses. Already the wheels in the big cotton mills are starting to turn, which wheels have been idle for a long time. It is bringing restored prosperity to the nation at large, and proving American independence of the European markets. American cotton and made in America goods are benefiting in this great commercial movement. Thousands who were out of employment are profiting through this stupendous benevolent plan conceived by the flower of our land, an American girl. The story itself shows the conditions before the movement started, weaves in a strong drama that brings it right to our door, and finally shows the results of Miss Clark's plan. Miss Clark has voluntarily offered her services in the production of this picture. So far, and may it continue so, everything has been done with the one principle in view, that is "To Make the Nation Prosper."
