La Junta tribune., 1914-08-22


without = question Of . doubt. and
that Henry Allen. progressive. has
an even chance with Arthur Capper
republican. for Eubernatoriai hon
ors. Murdock. Allen. Capper. Bris-
tow and Davies are all newspaper
men, with more Of 'em running in
some OF the back counties. probably.
and from this II appears that the
journalistic profession In Kansas is
the political salt OF the earth.
Those who believe that women
don't read the advertisements In the
newspapers have got another guess
coming. We had an ocular demon
stration OF this fact Just rs soon as
the great family journal was out last
week. When We went home last
Friday evening ws found . bevy OF
women on the front porch who were
endeavorinG to recuperate from
pink tea that had been served to
them during the afternoon. We had
two copies Of the Tribune In our out
side pocket. They grabbed both Of
them, and turning to the second page
commenced to devour the bargains
offered by the Kendall Dry Goods
Company. They paid NO attention
whatever TO the news on the first
page. or even the society column. but
confined their attention exclusively
to Kendall's adv. Oh. no. the wo-
men don't read the advertisements
In the newspspers-unless they are
interested. and they usually find
something OF interest In Kendsll's
adv. because the adv. man In Ken
dali's store always has something TO
say. and says II In a way that ap-
peals. and that Is the most import
ant feature Of advertising. And by
the way. the Saturday business IN
Kendaii's store was the biggest that
he has had In \ year.

When the proprietor Of \ newspa-

al TO suppose that his readers will
arrive at the conclusion that the edi-

In Rocky Ford last week when the
paper that prints the advertising

paper that everybody likes TO read.
