ADVERTISING
SPELLS SUCCESS
What a Buyer OF Publicity
Thinks Of Newspaper
Advertising.

Geo. ". Brown. President OF the
General Roofing Manufacturing Co..
manufacturers Of "Certain.teed" roof
ing, in recent address spoke of the
value of advertising. We quote few
sentences from his address merely to
show how heads of big business con
Germs view newspaper publicity.
I'VE were so little known when VIZ
began advertising, and have become
so well known everywhere. that there
is no doubt in the minds OF our organ
ization that advertising is doing all for
us that We could expect ii 10 do. AS
further proof that this is true, 1914
was the most successful year in the
history of our company. in spite of the
general business depression. and 50
far this year we are ahead OF the like
period for 1914 in every way"
While we believe there are many
forms OF good advertising. and that al.
vcrtisinG is seldom entirely thrown
away, and while we might advertise
some other lines in some differen:
way. the newspaper has been the sat.
istactory publication for our purpose
for the principal part of our campaign.
We find that business men. or the sub
Stantial thoughtful person. almost
without exception. is a very constant
reader OF newspapers. We find that
even the small items OF interest are
read in newspapers.
we see a biz distinction between
various classes Of newspapers for our
use. We have found those with the
best standing in the community
those that are known for truthfEineSS
and reliability in every way, are the
ones for Us to use. W. find that our
business grows when we use a clean.
influential paper-one that points out
the good in community; one that
seeks to build and tell the truth
We regard the newspaper as hav.
ing the greatest influence in advertis-
ing, as we belleev it has in various
other fields today"
We believe that advertising is tha
u2to-date modern method OF selling
goods-just as the wonderful modern
machinery beats the old madeby-hand
methods"
The cost of advertising is large. in
fact. 1t is tremendous. but the work
that it can do more than offsets this
cost. when it is working at its best
I'VE think the managers in every
big business should understand the
big value of Advertising. and then Il
he has the courage and the finaces to
play the game, the final development
OF business will be along the lines OF
educational. truthful advertising"
Mr.. Brown is not selling advertising
he is buying it, He is not mapping
out new path, he is pointing out the
course his company travelled success
fully. The merchant who would win
the highest success must advertise.
II he would cover the entire local field,
he must advertise in The West Vir-
ginian.

Many Industries
Are Revived


YORK. England. July 27.-Even in
the remotest villages the European
war has brought the pressure of war
time business. and the workman who
is not occupied TO the limit OF his en-
durarce is Idle from choice rather
than from lack of opportunity. The
charcoal burners. for instance, were
never so busy at their smoky forest
occupation; they can scarcely finish
the charges in their ovens fast enough
for the makers Of black powder. The
csier beds which border hundreds of
small streams in the interior Of Eng
land are shorn close for the first time
owing to the demand for osiers to
make the baskets and cases in which
shells are packed for transportation
to the front
Lumbermen and woodcutters find
an unlimited demnad for the stout
English woods which are used to
provide handles for treaching tools.
hatchets. levers and the multltarlous
implements of the army engineers and
service corps.
Everywhere men are in demand. and
some old industries. well-nigh forgot
ten, are being revived. Several old
lead, tin and copper mines which
were ruined when steam transit
brought cheap foreign ore to England
are being reopened.
