A TEST WHETHER
ADVERTISING PAYS

In talking recently with a mar
who has had a large success as ar
advertising salesman in another
place, this question was asked
him: "When a merchant says il
does not pay to advertise, what dc
you tell him7"
~ just ask him this" was the
reply. "What proportion Of the
population of this town has been
inside your store during the past
!, two months7"
every few merchants ever claim
they have had ten per cent. of
the population. Most of the non
advertisers would be glad to get
one per cent. A lot Of them prob
ably get only a small fraction of
one per cent. with any regularity"
"Then I say, how are all the
rest Of the people going to know
about your goods7 How can they
tell whether it would be for their adj
vantage to patronize you or mott
If you have good values, or special
bargains how do they know about
it7 A great many of them rarely
ever pass your store. The great
majority that pass give you only a
glance. You are not getting their
business, having done nothing to
interest them"
"Then I go on" he continued,
ito say there are just two ways
to get some of this trade now slip
ping past them. They can send
around solicitors from door to
door, distributing circulars or hand
bills, or advertise in newspapers.
The newspaper notice is read care
fully where a solicitor is summarily
turned down, and besides the adver-
tising, is 20 times cheaper than can
vassing. And hand bills are chuck
ed into the waste baskets, while
newspapers are read. If you don't
care to use any of these methods,
/ tell them, most Of the people of
this city will continue to pass you
by, without knowing anything about
your goods"
These remarks fit here as well as
the town where they were made. A
merchant must tell the public about
his goods in order to get trade.

WE NEED A MAN

The reason why so many Of us
fail to achieve greater success in
life is because we do not exert the
necessary will power to accomplish
more definite results
Look over the people of this town.
Study their habits, their speech,
and their accomplishments. You
wiz find many of them who un-
doubtedly possess an enormous re-
serve of will power. Their every
word and action indicates as much.
But there is perceptible DISPOSE
ton to hesitate which prevents the
bringing of that reserve force ac-
lively into play. The natural result is
that they are only moderately sue
cessful when they should be rising
90 great heights.
In this our people are in no re-
spect different from those of other
places and other chimes. 1t is a
trait of human nature and will
survive until the end of the human
race.
Occasionally we read or hear of
some great man who began life in
AN humble way. If you could look
down deep into the soul of. that
man you would see that he is just
human being like the rest of us,
with this exception. He has fought
and conquered the retarder, hest
fancy, and has brought into full ac-
ton the will power that lies DOR
mant in a majority of people. His
normal mind perceives an oppor-
tunity and his will and determine
ton force him to grasp it. The
result is success. The world hears
of him while the rest of us live
and die in the peaceful obscurity of
our own little circles.
There are those among US who
have in them the making of men
and wome nof national note, but
hesitancy dogs their steps. Their
route minds see the opportunities
ahead of them, but hesitancy whis-
pers to them to wait, and while they
are waiting opportunity marches on.
II pauses for no man.
This town is Overlooking with
brains, but most of them are lying
dormant, working only as necessity
requires.
As community we need an
awakening. We need revival of
will power and of determination.
We need n big boot that will lift
hesitation and procrastination into
eternal oblivion and forgetfulness.
We need action.
But above all we need CONNER
,ial pastor for the flock. We need
nan who has fought and conquered
lesitancy, who is achieving success
himself, who will take us by the
land and lead us into the way of
accomplishment and results. We
