THE BUSY BEE

Advertising is the bee that puts
the buzz in business.
Newspaper advertising is the best
and most productive form of adver-
tising-because it reaches the peo-
pie at the time they are ready to
act on the impulse.
A newspaper advertisement sug-
gests something near at hand-not
far away.
1t carries with it an unWritten
DO 1t Now" message.
And the advertisement that brings
the Il WILL" into the mind of the
advertiser--is the advertisement that
pays.
