Summer Advertising

We are all familiar with the reasons which
many advertisers advance for not advertising
during the summer months.
Here are some good arguments on the other.
side:
If your competitors stop their advertising
during this period, you can have the field all to
yourself
You can get much of the business that other
wise they would get-and hold it, provided you
deliver the goods
If you are the only one in your line repre-
sented in the July issues of The Call, where ord-
narily there would be ten, the circulation of
The Call for that issue is worth to YOU ten times
what it otherwise would be-
The value of continuity in advertising is
pretty generally appreciated. Even though your
advertising during July and August may fail to
bring as much IN direct results as it does at
other times, it serves as a connecting link be-
tween former advertising and after summer adj
vertlslng, adding to the value or effectiveness.
of the latter.
There are some unusually busy people who
pay little attention to advertisements ordinarily.
who have not the time to read them seriously,
who make 1t point to carry bundles of papers
and magazines with them on their vacation trips,
eitherto enable them to catch up in their reading
or because they prefer reading to other forms of
recreation. Thus YOU reach during the hot
months certain number Of desirable possible
customers whose ears it is difficult to get at
other times
Your advertisement is more likely to get

should interest particularly the user of small

Before his departure Heney again dis
cussed the references made by Chair

said that he had received no word from
