A HALT CALLED
ON BILLBOARDS
SAID THAT SOME OF THE AID
VERTISERS FIND IT DOES NOT
PAY-THE INVESTIGATION.

While for many years the ordinary
man has been much disturbed over the
! DETACHMENT of natural scenery by i'm
mense signboards with lurid advertise
himself with the reflection that it was
business and there was no way to pre-
vent a man from making profits from
such a source so long as he paid the
bill. 1t now seems that there is much
diversity of opinion among the scenery
defacers as to whether there is any
profit at all in their advertising-in fact
most of those who have been inter-
viewed consider that they may sustain
loss.
The matter has been under investi-
cation for some time by an altruistic
body known as the American Scenic
and Historic Preservation Society, an
organization which has done much
good Substantially and more by edu-
eating people up to an appreciation of
| high standards. The society asked the
advertiseres bluntly whether they were
satisfied with their experiments. Most
of them said they were not and that
they used very small percentage of
money set aside for advertising pur-
poses in this direction. Others held
that the only advantage came from
making some particular article or
brand well known to the people Others
intend to abandon the practice as soon
as existing contracts expire.
All this applies to flaming posters as
well as to the wooden billboards which
disfigure so much of the landscape

ADVERTISING.

Many of the largest advertisers in
the country have come to the conclu-
sion that out-of-door advertising is a
waste Of money. and that no results
come from the placing Of signs on hill
sides and in AL sorts of conspicuous
places. The concerns that do that sort
of work are curtailing expenses, know
ing well that the beginning Of the end
of their business is at hand. In addi-
ton to this, there is a decided move
ment all over the country to do away
with the billboard horror, the argu-
ment against it being its hideousness
and the marring effect on the scenery
in the rural districts and its damage to
contiguous property in the cities
