How Alexander United
the Knot.
b. Herbert kaufman.

By Herbert Kaufman
Alexander the Great was being shown the Gordian
Knot ''It can't be united, they told him; EVERY
man who tried to do it fell down"
But Alexander was not discouraged because the
rest had hunked. He simply realized that he would
have to 90 at it in a different way. And instead OF
wasting time with his fingers he drew his sword and
SlaShed it apart.
Every day great business general is shown some
knot which has proven too much for his competitors,
and he succeeds because he finds way to cut it. The
fumber has no show so long there is brother
chant who doesn't waste time trying to accomplish
the mpossible-who takes lessons from the failures
about him and avoids the methods which were their
downfall.
The knottiest problems in trade are:
The problem Of location.
2-The problem of getting the crouOds
3-The problem of keeping the crOtOds.
4-The problem of minimizing fixed expenses.
5-The problem of creating UaIuabIe good uOiH
None of these knots is going to be united by fun
bling fingers. They too complicated. They're all
involved together-twisted and entanged over and
about each other-so intertwined that they can't be
solved singly-like the Gordian Knot they must be cut
through at one stroke. And you can't cut the knot
with any sword except the paper-because:
IA store that is constantly before the people
makes its OIOn neighbOrhOOd.
2-CrOuOds can be brought from anywhere BY
daily advertising
3-Customers always be held by induce
HeRts.
4-FLred expenses can only be reduced by in
cTeGsing the OOLume Of sales
GOOD uOiH can only be created through pub
Ecity.
Advertising is breeding new giants every year and
making them more powerful every hour, Publicity is
the sustaining food of powerful store and the only
strengthening nourishment for Uedk one. The re-
taller who delays his entry into advertising must pay
the penalty of his procrastnation by facing more giant
competitors as every month of opportunity slips by.
Personal abiltyas close purchaser and as clever
seller doesn't count for hang long other men are
equally well posted and the sword of publicity to
boot They able to tie your business into constantly
closer knots, while you cannot retaate because there
no knot which their advertising cut for them
Yesterday you lost customer-today they took
one-tomorrow they'll get another. You cannot cope
with their competition because you haven't the weapon
with which to oppose it. You can't unite your Gordian
Knot because it can't be antied-youve got to CIT it.
You must become an advertiser or you must pay
the penalty Of incompetence.
You not only require the newspaper to fight for a
hopeful tomorrow but to keep today's situation
from becoming hopeless
