AFTERNOON PAPERS THE BEST
Evening Newspapers Are Best Med
iums for Merchants to Use.

Charles w. Mears, a former sport
ing editor, now advertising manager
of the winton Motor Carriage Com
panN has won the first prize of
$4,000 for an 1,s0O-word article on
advertising. Mears submitted his ar
ticIe In a contest started by the Ar
buckle Brothers coffee house. and
competed against nearly all the lead
ing advertising men in the country
Mears discussed various advertising
methods and particularly urged the
use of newspapers, especially after
noon newspapers.
In that part of the article he cali
ed attention to the fact that women
buy % per cent Of the food products
consumed and therefore 1t was i'm
perative that they be reached. The
prize winning article says:
Among all dailies the evening pa
pers are to be preferred. because they
have the largest circulation and 20
more generally into the homes, espe-
cially Of people not wealthy, many of
whom never see morning paper.
Evening papers are sold when men
are going home and hence 60 with
them. Nearly all morning papers
sold on cars, trains and streets go
to the offices. stores and shops-the
housewife doesn't get look"
