Advocates Golden
Rule in Business
Publicity Director Advises
, Merchants to Stand Back
Of What They Sell. :
"The Golden Rule is applicable
hi advertising and business, and
should be the rule of conduct for
evry business.. man," said Henry P.
Williams, director of publicity of
Hart, Schaffner & Marx, Chicago,
in an address before delegates to
the sixth annual conventiotKof Ne
braska Retail Clothiers at thcHotel
Fontenelle yesterday afternoon,
, "Advertisipg is a waste of money
and energy if the merchant is not
ready to stand- back of what he
sells. When a merchant, through
his advertising gains the confidence
of the public by honest dealings
and 4ioiiTst values, he wjll be suc
cessful. .
"The day Js past wheii the custo
mi1)uys .'merchandise at his own
risk.' A customer shows confidence
in a. merchant and'his merchandise
when he entersh1s"store. An honest
merchant will not betray that confi
dence by selling inferior merchan
dise." ;
Mr. Williams said all advertising'
should be not just for present
needs, but should be business and
character builders for the advertiser
at all times. -
Mayor Ed. P. Smith welcomed
the clothiers to 'Omaha hi an address
and President A. W. Sterne, Grand
Island, made the response. . i
