THE VERBAL NEWSPAPER
FREDERIC SNYDER, New York newsman and publicist, is keen and witty.  He applies the ability of a skilled journalist in the preparation of his new and attractive form of addresses.  Each of them is made up quite like a newspaper.  Some sensational headline facts, an editorial of inspiration, a humorous column and some advertisements urging action.  He brings news in the most delightful manner.  Frankly and fearlessly he gives an unusual slant on present day problems—national and international.

Few men have traveled more extensively or greeted more audiences in the United States.  He has been engaged by cities and states, by universities, great foundations, federations, conventions, teachers institutes, forums.  In many cities of importance and in rural sections improved public properties, hospitals, schools, playgrounds attest the lasting value of his efforts as a skilled Civic Engineer.

FREDERIC SNYDER has a rich background.  His life has been crowded with thrilling experiences.  He has had wide and varied contacts in public work both in the United States and Europe with great personalities and events.  He is fortified with facts gathered through daily association with some of the outstanding political, business and industrial leaders of the country.  In 1923 he was the principal in an important social survey in eight European countries.  In 1925 he was a delegate to the World Conference at Stockholm and made important contributions to its success.  Mr. Snyder was designated Special Commissioner of the Press Congress of the World and represented it in the press section at Geneva.  Just a year ago he returned from another important mission in Europe.  He is in touch with the most vital in world affairs.



FREDERIC SNYDER
Pleases Exacting Critics
Repeaters just have to be good.  This club is too cagy to re-taste any advertised caviar that has proved to be but a mouthful of ashes.  Thus on the wings of acclaim, returns Frederic Snyder; a third timer by popular request.—Bumblebee—The Rochester Ad Club.

Our assembly (attendance — 2,500) comes at the close of the day when everybody is tired out, when nerves are frayed and tempers short.  It takes a speaker of power and versatility to hold our audience.  Frederic Snyder succeeded to a degree seldom equalled and never excelled by a visiting speaker in this town. — E. E. Morley, Principal, Cleveland Heights, O., H. S.
