THE VALUE OF REPETITION
President Garfield Understood the
Law of Advertising.

The following interesting story
about President Garfield is told in the
May American Magazine:
James II. Garfield of Cleveland.
son of the late President Garfield,
told one Of the editors of The Amer
lean Magazine the following story
about travelling in 1878 as A boy with
his father who was campaigning.
One night, after a speech in Michi-
gan, young Garfield said to his
father: Why do you repeat so much?
DO you know that you said the same
things several times tonight? DO
you know that you said the same
things tonight that you said this af-
ternoon in Detroit? General Gar
field made this reply: You happen
to be an especially interested party
and notice these repetitions. Others
do not. | repeat the same statements
deliberately in order that people may
finally get them. Anything that l
want an audience to get and remem-
Der l repeat several times-in some
what different form perhaps. This
practice | have developed out OF my
experience which has shown me that
peoples attention is distracted In va
rious ways and that a first or sec
ond statement may not really get to
them. You must insist on an idea or
fact If you want to get anywhere with
IT,"
