DO YOU 11ELIEVE WHAT IS SAID
HKIlfi AffOUT ADVERTISING I
The fo!loH. nr, ib clipped from an ox
change and presents tho reasons for
newspaper advertising In a snno man
ner. Wo glvo It In full for tho fncSts It
contains:
From tho beginning of time men
nnd women have told each other things
they have advortlscd In oneway or
nnotlier. Tliey did it through a system
of slgnnl Area, a numbor of runners or
with messages carved on stono. As
time hns gone on the system has Im
proved bocuuso tho peoplo of tho earth
havo progressed. Tho present system
of advertising--telling storo nows thru
tho nowBpapors Is a porfect system of
ulvurtlsing.
It Is perfect becauso It reaches tho
greatest number of peoplo In tho
shortest posslblo time. It tolls In few
words tho big story of a merchant's
plan to do his part fairly In the gener
al scheme of supply nnd demand. Tho
auclont nithod ot signal fires wouldn't
reach a large per cent of tho people
today.
When a huge, unusual store adver
tisement maKcs Its debut, as it wore.
in a nowapapor, readers all over tho
country get the nows. Thoy speculate
on it, they discuss It, thoy wonder if
It is real. Thoy go to the storo to find
out. . Bargains must bo followed In
these days of high cost of living, or
dying.
Thru careful advertising a merchant
can cducato tho public to appreciate
tho fact that ho Ib -co-operating with It.
That ho Is slncoroly anxious to servo
ills cuflton ers to tho vory best of his
ability. It can't bo dono In any other
wny with such successful results; ad
vertising Is nnd alwayB has boon the
beat wny. v
Evoryono knows that no man coos
Into business nB a healthful recreation.
Ho does It for the snmo reason bo oats
to live. And tho merchant who has n
genuine regard for his follows, or his
stomach, iBn't going to tako a chance
on losing his living.
A big Btoro must enrry u larco sun
ply of merchandise. It must distribute
groa.t quantities dally. To do a big
voiumo of buslnoBS it must got a
great number of customors; buyers of
goods, tho largest volume or capaci
ty turn-over enn bo reached only thru
adoquato advertising.
Advortlslng is tho economic factor
of buslnoss. Without It few buyers
would know of tho exceptional values
offered. The turnover would bo re
duced to nlmost nothing nnd In order
to llvo tho merchant would bo rom-
pollcd to Jnck up his prices. It would
bo the only solution possible. Illghor
prices moans fewer buyers nnd busi
ness falluro to tho man who Ib. afraid
that advertising may bo extrava
gance Progression is the highest mark of
civilization. Tho ancfent method of
signal fires wojild not reach a very
large per cont ot tho peoplo today.
Ono goes to a flro now-a-days out ot
curiosity or pity for tho chap who Is
losing something. Ono reads a good
advortlsemont with gleo ana apprecia
tion or tno man who Is progressing
vvlu Is building up a business that Is
fnr-rcachlng and worth while.., .
' 1 ho Income nnd tho ont-go is, at
the present tlmo, so closely nlllcd that
no man or woman can afford to miss a
Blnglo day's opportunity to save. TJirlft
Ib becoming n byo-woro In avery

tisement paiajs boforo scanning tho
headlines. Tho ads carry tho biggest
