The Follies of
Advertising
Mistakes That Need Not Be Repeated

There have been countless mistakes
made in advertising, and someone paid
the penalty for each.
Someone learned lesson.
Countless moves have proved very
successful, and someone knows the
reason.
You are using ideas which others
proved fallacious.
You are making mistakes for which
others paid dearly.
You are doing some things which
other men do better.
And there are many naneuvers, I'M
known to you, to which other men owe
their success.

Suppose you had access to all this
experience-in a thousand separate
lines.
Suppose every question could be an
swered correctly by someone's proved
solution.
Suppose every selling idea, right or
wrong, could be followed by you to it's
outcome.
Suppose a thousand advertisers
taught you all the lessons of their thou
sand business lifetimes.
Don't you think it would help you to
mark your own course7 Don't you
think it would save you mistalxes7
We have for decades been in intimate
contact with leaders in a thousand
lines.
We have been their advisers-their
co-workers-in all that pertains to SELL
ing.
We have kept familiar with their
every move. We know every stepping
stone, every Pitfall they encountered.

A Battle Being Refousht.

tP1ScataQuiS observer
Twenty years ago the people of
Maine were discussing the wisdom of
| making the prohibitory law a part OF
the constitution and then. as now, men
advocated high license because pro
hibition does not prohibit" In the
issue of the Observer for July %,
1886, the Atkinson correspondent
quoted this argument and said; OF
course II doesn't unless the law is en-
forced. But why is it not enforced
The answer is plain. In towns where
it is not enforced it is because the
people do not want it enforced
That is as true today as then In
towns and cities and counties where
the sentiment is favorable to enforce
ment there is enforcement Take Pts
cataquis county as an illustration.
The people as a whole want enforce
ment and Sheriff Doble and his dep
utes. aided by the county attorney
have given them enforcement, and we
believe they would any way, so long
as they were acting under the prohibit
tory law?
Undoubtedly great majority of the
towns in Maine are benefited by pro-
hibiton just as the towns in this
county are. and is there any good rea-
son why the majority should be com
PEELED to have a license law because
the minority fails in doing what II
can do If it will?
Two Bangor men told the writer in
the fall of 1907 that the liquor bust
ness in that city had been driven into
the hands of the Armenians and peo-
pie of that class. This statement was
made independently and the men who
made it spoke advisedly. Now IL
Maine had license law these Armeni-
ans would not be licensed. but does
any one believe for a moment that
they would voluntarily stop selling. or
that they would be made to stop?
Let us get back to Piscataquis coun-
". It is a matter of court record that
several residents of Greenville Junction
have been convicted of liquor selling.
Should a license law be enacted one
man, and at most. two. might be IL
eensed to SELL but does any, one be-
lieve the other men who want to sell
would be any less likely to than they
are under the prohibitory law? or
course they wouldn't. for il they are
willing to take chances under PROM
bition they would under license.
This being true. and no one can deny
II. what is the advantage of legahzing
the traffic.
