ADVERTISING TALKS
CONTINUED from rage one1


A little later in the season, the
manufacturer who made these
suits comes 10 me and says: I
have IFS of these suits left over
l will SELF them to you at a dis
count of 80 I-3 a.
Il buy them and put them on
sale. After / have added my busi-
ness profit, ! can sell these suits
for six OF seven dollars less than
the former price. Have l the
moral right in my advertising 20
say that these suits are worth
S25?"
Again l answered:
Why not say in your adver-
tisenent how you bought these
suits-why not let the public
know that you get them at a price
that enables you to sell them FOR
SO much money-that earlier IN
the season you sold the same suit
at higher price only because you
had to pay more for them?"
You believe, then" said the
merchant, that THE PUBLIC
WILL RESPOND TO ADVER-
Using THAT DOES NOT
MENTION VALUES?"
Il most assuredly do" l an
swered. Why shouldn't they
respond? II your advertising
copy gives just a Eff
STATEMENT of how you came
into possession Of goods that you
can sell at a low price, DON'T
YOU THINK THE PEOPLE
WILL RESPOND. and don't you

Music teachers of Southern California
are interested In the wise step of form
ing an association. This method Of es-
tablishing a bond between men and
women in the same profession Is one
which musicians have been slow to
adopt, although they have seen mem
bers of all the other professions work
such arrangements out to a satisfac-
tory and beneficial conclusion. 1t Is due
now to the enthusiasm of half doz-
en- or more of the representative musi-
clans that the scheme is being pushed,
but it is so obviously advantageous in
it's workings that it will unquestionably
meet with general support. A meeting
was held Monday afternoon at the stu
dio of Miss Jennie Winston in Blanch-

ard hall, to form a plan for organiza-
ton, and a committee was appointed
for this purpose, of which William
Murray, composer and teacher, is chair
man, and other members are Miss
Winston, Arnold Krauss and Harry
Clifford Lott.
Teachers throughout the southern
part of the state will be invited to join.
and the association will undoubtedly
become one of the influential musical
organizations in the state.
1t is the intention now to hold a
meeting here sometime during the holi
days, when a large assemblage of rep
resentative musicians will attend and
officers will be elected for the formal
organization.
