A story is told of a prisoner who called the Judge
a fool. The judge fined him $40. He paid the fine
but asked: DO you fine people for thinking, your
HONOR" The judge answered in the negative.
Wen" he said, II think you're a fool still"
If should print my personal opinion Of some big
advertisers like as not I'd get fined; but it is perfectly
safe to think.
If a traveller came to you and talked Of the stuff
which his house prints as advertising you would put
him down at once as an idiot.
The talk is unnatural; sounding brass and a.
tnkling cymbali unreal, insincere, dead. The reader
feels that it isn't the advertiser who is talking; that
there really isn't anybody talking that the words are
just printing.
Good advertising is good talk; the frank, honest
kind that convinces.
An advertisement of one hundred words should
make the reader think five thousand words; and
herein is the whole secret of good copy. 1t isn't what
you say that counts but the chain of thought which
your advertising creates.
The more you fuss over your advertising copy the
poorer the result. It isn't a job to stutter about or to
apologize for or to burn midnight oil over. If you
want to make an advertising hit all you need to do
is to talk to the reader of the newspaper as you talk
across the counter to a customer.
Two Irishmen chased a wild cat UP a tree. Pat
went up to shake him off while Mike remained below
to catch him when he fell. Both were successful, but
Mike and the wildcat were soon in a rough and
tumble scrap below. Pat called out shall Oh come
DOWN an help you how'd him., Mixer" "Nawl
Begorra, come douwn, Pat, an help me let him eo.'
Advertising is a wildcat up a tree. Once you
have shaken him off, the problem of letting co. is
quite as difficult as the problem Of "howldine ON
But what you need in either case is nerve; and a
reasonable assurance regarding the future.
It rarely pays to splurge. Make your appropria-
ton deliberately and carefully. Prepare good copy.
Advertise continuously; every day or at least every
week. Your store is the seed or the plant. The
advertising is the rain and the sunshine. You can't
rush the growth. 1t may take weeks or months to
produce flowers or fruit. ugagass4~.
