and cheering Of the people lined up back

tinued, proposed that the local ad-
ministration be distributed between
county councils. urban and rural dis
trict councils and boards OF guardians,

weary and staggering when Armstrong
caught Kennpy on the law.

You can't Judge the value
OF a newspaper as an ad-
vertising medium solely
by the number OF pages
it prints. The newspa-
per with the m ost
pages is, more often
than not, the newspaper
with the smallest cis-
cuIation.
Nowadays. people
like to have the News of
the Day served briskly
and crisply. They want
to find all the news IN
their newspaper, b u t
they don't want to wade
through a lot of bluff to
get at the real meat.
Nowadays the adver-
tiser doesn't accept the
average circulation state
ment without doing \
little probing on his owl
account. The return
he gets from his adver-
tisements tell him all he
wants to know about cir
culation.
