KEEP ALWAYS BEFORE PUBLIC

lRx WIN. G. FREEMANA

Just about this time of year n goodly
number OF merchants decide that they
will save money until the middle OF
September by not advertising.
Year after year. for nearly twenty
six years. one OF the hardest parts of
my work as an advertising man has
been to convince the merchant who
wants to stop advertising during the
summer months that he should never
stop advertising.
My average of success for each year
and that is really failure-but the 40
per cent. OF doubling merchants who
were persuaded to have faith in the
value OF advertising in summer. fall.
winter and spring months have been
very successful, l am glad to say.
A man came into my Office the 9TH
er day to talk with me about advertis-
Ing furs during the summer months.
He wanted me to conduct a cam
paign for him-said he was convinced
ti'at II would pay-that he believed n
campaign advertising furs all the year
round would enable a retailer to sell
fur garments at an average lower
price, because he would do more bust
ness-that the retailer would not be
compelled to sell at an enormous profit
FOR short winter season, thereby min
linking the number of people that buy
furs-that he believed big fur bust
ness was possible II furs should be
sold at reasonable profit-not at a
profit Of from $3.50 to $500 on each
garment that costs the retailer from
500 up.
What he wants to do can be done
successfully. / think.
No average retail business can af-
ford to ever be out OF the newspapers.
In this busy world. we are SO easily
forgotten. We must keep ourselves
before the public all of the time. We
cannot afford to be overlooked. II we
do not advertise all of the time. we
surely will be overlooked.
Don't stop, Mr. Merchanct.

Using during the summer months, and
