Fellowship in
Advertisements.

Merchants and manufacturers
have certain articles they wish
to sell. In order to sell them
they advertise.
THAT is their business" you
say; they are doing 1t to bene>
fit themselves.
True, they are advertising
primarily for their own profit.
But there Is more to present
day advertising than that. 1t
has created a spirit Of conf
dence and friendliness between
the seller and the buyer that
has become so much a part of
our daily lives that we hardly
realize 1t unless we stop to
think.
Have you ever made a pur-
chase in the Orient? If so. you
remember how you have enter
ed shop and after poking
through confused heaps of arti-
cles you have found something
that struck your fancy. You
asked the price and were told
it was worth, perhaps, the
equivalent of a dollar. Then
ensued haggling, haranguing.
threats, imprecations, until
finally at the end of half an
hour you triumphantly emerged
from the shop. the article in
your hand and so cents gone
from your pocket. When you
looked again at your purchase
your good common sense told
you it was worth about 10
cents.
Contrast such an experience
with shopping here today. You
will appreciate as never before
the value of THE GATE CITY'S
advertisements, which lead you
to firms known for their honest
goods and their fair dealings.
