go to Church!"

The value of advertising was
learned long ago by merchants. They
found It was worth while because 1t
got results. Facts could be presented
on the printed page in way that
appealed to people. A man or Wo-
man, looking over a newspaper In
the quiet of the home. was in mood
to respond to a we'll put suggestion.
Good advertising, properly presented
In the right sort Of medium, would
move people in large masses because
1t reached them at the psychological
moment.
This lesson, as has been said, was
learned long ago by business men In
sharp competition with each other,
But the church, not given to innoVa-
lions, until recently ignored the pos
sibiiities OF newspaper advertising.
Then 1t began to occur to business
men connected with churches that
they were overlooking an opportu-
nifty, The church was being crowded
out of the lives OF many men and
women through sheer heedlesshess.
In cities in particular 1t was easy to
neglect the services and In most
cases there was nobody to do any re-
minding. So year or more ago
earnest men undertook to raise
money to conduct advertising cam
palgns to urge churchgoing.
The results in the first cities that
tried the plan were so encouraging
that 1t spread to other cities. Today
all over the country people are per-
suasively urged in display Rdvertis-
ing Saturday afternoons to go to
church the next day. So great has
the interest In these methods become
that book has recently been written
on the subject of Church Publicity:
The Modern Way to Compel Them to
Come In" by the Rev. C. F. Reisner
Of New York, formerly OF Kansas
City.
A campaign to advertise church
going began in Kansas City q few
weeks ago with half page advertise
ment in The Star. This advertise
ment set forth reasonably and per-
suasively considerations why men
and women should go to church. 1t
called attention to the value Of
churches to the community. the obli-
cation to support them. the uncon-
sciously retarding influence Of the
person who stays away from church.
This sort of advertising repeated
week after week is bound to have a
profound effect. 1t is going to pro-
duce results. just as secular advertis-
Ing produces result-only its results
