was heard on every hand yesterday"
Mort Simpson of 1oveman, Joseph &
Loeb: THE convention was a perfect
success. L believe that it did much good

| Importance of proper and truthful ad-
vertising, and at the same time, it gave

J. r. Hornady: 81 enjoyed every

Every person present entered into the

vention will be on an even larger
SCALE"
| John Anderson of Louis Pizitz: That
convention was of real benefit to all
the advertising men, the advertisers
and the consumers. 1t was a revelation

in their daily life. And then it was
| such a splendid entertainment"
| DIR. r. NJ Cunningham "I am in
favor OF The AgeHerald getting up
another advertising convention as soon
as possible. l learned lots of things

plenty of fun. 1t was a most creditable
affair from every standpoint"

the right prices in the right way, and
in the right paper, but The Age-Her-

John Sparrow: aside from the fact
that was the successful candidate, l
think The Age-Herald's advertising
convention was just about the most
unique stunt l ever attended. Mr.. Bar

and on every hand I hear men insist
that some such convention be made a
permanent annual Affair."

Age Herald's ad convention Thursday
night proved to be. had not the slight

for the delegates and was immensely
surprised and entertained through
it ALL"
w. o. Broyles: 1.-THE next time The
Age-Herald holds an ad writer's con-
vention they'll need bigger place
than the Jefferson theatre to seat the
crowds that will insist on coming. I've
been hearing favorable comments on it
all day and all who weren't there are
sorry
Ben Well I'm sorry to say that
found it impossible to attend the conven-
ton last night because l realize from the
many comments heard today just what a
treat missed. 1t was unfortunate that
50 many of the merchants couldn't leave
their stores, because / believe everyone
without an exception was anxious to be
present"
John Fl. Taylor: 1.-THE Age-Herald GER

never seen anything to equal it and look
forward with keen pleasure to the next

Madam Chairman Jacobs certainly ham

master hand"

joyed every minute of it,
Judge C. c. Nesmith: Il enjoyed the
advertising convention very much. The
affair impressed upon me the Importance

you can look for an overflow at the next
meeting.
