TRADE MORAL—Trying to win a
girl's love by taking her aunt
buggy riding is like an attempt
to do business without adver
tising. The aunt enjoys the
buggy ride, but it doesn't help
your cause with the girl. The
merchant who wants to win
the home folks' trade will win
if he plugs persistently through
these columns.
