Valuable Hints on Display by the In
telligent Compositor


Printers Ink: To display an advertise
ment properly requires time, care and a
certain amount Of experience, except in
the reproduction Of reprint advertise
ments, where all a compositor has TO do
Is TO follow copy. The man who sits
down and hurriedly writes up his an
nOuncement with the expectation Of see
Ing a displayed advertisement I'm the
papers on the following morning, is al
most sure TO meet with disaDpOintmcnt
The copy tor his advertisement is sent up
10 the composing room, with the stcreO-
typed phrase good display attached.
II may be cut up into several takes
and handed to as many di iferet compost
tors, whose only object Is 10 get up the
greatest amount Of type possible in a
nights work; consequently, the compost
tor Is not willing TO bother much with
your advertisement, as the time spent
would be 20 much money out OF his
pocket. The very part you intended TO
have brought out prominently is often set
in agate, and what should have been in
agate is in large display type.
1t is always better and more Satisfac-
tory TO have your advertisement put in
type 10 suit you before giving IL 10 the
newspaper, even If it entails a cost Of a
few dollars extra.
BE willing to be guided. To- a certain ey-
tent by the printers judgment in the
selection OF type, and, If necessary. change
the reading so as TO get the best effect
possible when IL will not spoil the sense Of
the advertisement Never try TO get into
one inch Of pearl enough matter to cover
five inches Of long primer. Don't have
every other line full face, small caps
italic or gothic. The public doesn't care
70 use magniiying glasses to read what
you have TO say.
When cuts are used in general adver-
tisinR, much better results are obtained II
they are in simple outline
The best advertisement, and the one
most likely to be read, should start with
"A catchy line In plain. bold type, the bal
ance set IN, say, long primer Of plea
roman. A little white white space all
around is often very effective. II the
body Of the advertisement Is set in old
style. use antique for words that require
prominence. If set I'm modern faced type.
use full face. Avoid, above all thing.
fancy type, and never use the illcgiblc
faces gotten out Of late. A little orna-
meutation might be employed IN adycr-

well printed weeklics; but the skilled ad-
yerti,er seldom Indulge, in this.
For the daily papers and country week
lies the palmer the advertisement the

seen in the papers today are those gotten
up by professionals having their own

That IL is the exception, not the rule, for

tisements. They are too much given 10

The Coming President
