ADVERTISER AND LOCAL PAPER
Copyright 1912 by Geo. E. Patterson.

Copyright 1912 by Geo. z Patterson.
The relation of the local paper and the advertiser should be con-
genial, a S one is more or less dependent upon the other. When the
advertiser places advertising in the local paper he expects results.
The newspaper when it accepts advertising promises in effect that the
paper has a local circulation commensurate WITH the rate charged.
Advertising should be given in good faith a S it is accepted in good
faith. 1t is purely a business transaction. The newspaper sells its
space, or services, to the advertiser, just a any one sells any other
commodity.
There are three things for the advertiser to bear in mind. First,
he should map out a systematic advertising campaign and be persist
emit in carrying it out. Second, he should prepare his advertisements
so they are attractive, interesting and convincing. Third, he must
back up his advertising campaign with good service, o he cannot
expect to hold his trade and get the best results out of his advertising.
The advertiser must realize that all responsibility for the pre-
paration of the advertisements are with himself. # the adver-
tsements have nc merit n o results should be expected. 1t IS ridiculous
to blame the newspaper when neither the advertisements nor condi-
tons warrant results.
There is n o n more interested in seeing advertisements profit
able than the newspaper, Is the advertising in the paper is what makes
the publication of the paper possible, thus aiding in the dissemination
of local news, the creation of local interest, and the building Of the
local communty-al of which is necessary to ne success of local
business.
On the other hand there should be n o one stronger in htsf friend
ship for the local paper than the local advertiser. The local news
PAPER is the best friend the local advertiser has. Hence the local paper
should not be treated a a N enemy but rather a a friend and semi
PARTNER in the task Of business getting.

1t is a poor present that is given be-
cause it is cheap.
Girls, what do you think of the fell
low who gets a wife through a matri-
monial ad? Or a Christmas present
out of a catalog?
Don't spend much time on a fellow
who buys his Christmas presents from
a mail-order house. A chap who
doesn't buy from the home stores
isn't likely to marry a home girl.
