CONTINUOUS ADVERTISING COUNTS

The result to be derived from continuous, every
day advertising cannot be overestimated. The per-
son or concern that desires to have its business
grow and expand, goes into the newspapers ana
stays there. BY that we do not mean to let the
wording of an ad without frequent change We
space.
The advertising you did yesterday will help your
advertising today, and theadvertislng of tomorrow
will help that of tomorrow
The child that makes greatest progress at school
does not attend Monday, skip Tuesday, back We'd
nssday and out Friday. He is attending every
school day in order to pass his finals In contnu-
ity there is strength "Out OF sight IS OUT OF
mind"
To discontinue an ad. while you still have goods
On YOUR shelves or vitality in your brains to produce
something means of two thngs-either that
ysu have made your fortune and are ready to re-
tire or that the business is retrograding and degen
Grating.

ADVERTISING FACTS

Minneapolis Star: If member OF your family
died would you print the resolutions on bill
beard?
If your wife entertained, would you send an &C
count of it to the theatre program man?
II you were going to enlarge your business, would
you advertise in hotel register?
If you were going to have wedding in your
family, would you get out handful?
You would send such items to newspaper,
wouldn't you?
Then why don't you put your advertisements in
newspaper?
Every man who uses the billboard is adding to
nature taking.
Every dollar spent in theatre program, IN
register in a directory in hand-bill is legltl-
mate dollar taken away from the newspapers OF
your town.
The newspaper builds your town; why not help
build up the newspaper? There is no better adVer-
Using in the world for town than good news
naper? A newspaper is the barometer or the
towns industry. Show good newspaper full
OF advertising and we will show you gooo to"h'
full of live merchants.
Biboards are eyesOre; handbllls are NUS
ance; theatre programs worthless; hotel reg
isters from an advertising standpoint are ridicul-
Gus.
NEWSPAPERS are town builders, town advertisers,
fortune makers news dsseminators, sermon de-
Iiyerers prosperity forecastng-they are neces-
sity not a luxury; they must be maintained With
ont them we would retrograde to the mediavel days.
Don't patronize them from a charitable standpoint
patronize them because they deliver the goods
that is, if they the right kind.
Cut out the foolishness and work for the up
building of your town and state by upholding your
newspaper
