ADVERTISING IN THE SUMMER
Lack Of Optimism on Part of Solici.
tors May Cause Falling of at
This Time.

Before a recent business meeting OF
the New York Times staff. Ernest j.
Preston, manager of the Daily News
paper club, discussed "The Decline of
Advertising in the Summer" He gave
various reasons why advertising
should be kept up during the hot sea-
son above all other times of the year,
and said that it may not be all the
'ault of the advertiser that he lets his
publicity fall off in the summer but
hat some of it may be brought about
by the lack of optimism on the part

User to stop his advertising-to break

Besson IL was an almost colorless bow and was
seen at 2:10 p. m, dying out and then reappear-

bow had about three degrees width and was not
a pure white, but~somewhat tinged with rose
color at the outer edge and violet at the inner
The angular height OF the summit was 40 degrees

fair this year in no other way; cut

cost much but give little results and
