WHAT IS GOOD ADvERTlsING7
Selling Arguments Are Not Found In Name and Address of Mer-
 chant

There was . time, away back In tne beginning of advertising. when the seller who put into print. whore the huyer could ssss 1t. his mama. the nsms of the commodity he dealt in. and the address of his place of business. was considered to have made quits . splurge in the way of publicity. And there are mediums today, bidding and patronage of twentieth century adver- tisers, whose physical limitations pre- clude them from doing much more for the producer or distributor of mer- chandise than his ancestor did for himself in printing on old-fashioned card"
 You can't tell the news of store or enforce upon the consumer the merits of a product with which he is unfamiliar in 10 or 20 words. any more than you could present sell ing argument over the telephone If the period of communication were limited to a few seconds. Brevtty- in moderation--is good thing in advertising; but the brevity imposed by the characteristics of some me diums is too apt to cut off the best selling talk before it begins.
 One of the many advantages of the newspaper as a means of access to the ear of the buyer is that it secures for the advertiser full hearing.- Rock Island Argus.

REAL VALUE OF ADVERTISING
Former Dcubsers Convicted by the Large Fortunes Made by Per
 sistert Advertisers.
EEA- -N E01@1

The number of merchants who will sit down and seriously argue that 1t does not pay to advertise is not half as great today as it was five years ago. The fortunes that have been accumulated by successful adyertls- CTS, the direct response of the buying public to judicious publicity, are such apparent facts as to have convinced . large share of the former doubters- But occasionally there is merchant who gets it into his head that there is some method of getting at the pub lie through some means other than newspaper space.
 every such method. Bill board ad- vertising runs up against the grow ing hostility to the dishgursrg of nature and our public streets. Many people are resolving not to patronize houses guilty of this disnGuring form of advertising. Furthermoee, there is no chance to quote prices and de- scribe goods in this advertising in any rational way. There is no logic in the bill board.
 The latter point applies to program advertising. It is not advertising, merely mental jolt It does nothing to convince the reader that you have bargains, and hand bill advertising always looks cheap. It is the news paper only that presents business news in form acceptable to the peo- pie. The merchant who adverttses in a newspaper of larger circulation saves half the cost and doubles the re- sults.-Champaign Ill) Gazette.
