ADVERTISE AND YOU
WILL HAVE SUCCESS
(Copyrighted, 1914, by Thomas
Sullivan.)

NOOpyilBHItu, 1J1t, ny IUOudS u.
Sullivan)
The concern which persistently and
consistently advertises brings to it.
self great reward in the form of in
creased business. Fences, rocks and
trees are covered with print and
paint. The shower of advertising in
the shape of handbills is incessant.
They are put into ones hand at ev-
cry step-at the church door and in
hotels, in public vehicles, thrust I'M
der private doors and sent by mil
lions through the mails.
Glittering Advertising Maze
The only road to commercial sue
cess leads through glittering maze
of advertising.
Great boats, bearing on their sails
huge advertisements, sail up and
down all season before crowded wat
ering places, and now and then rain
of advertisements comes from a wan
dering aeroplane.
When daylight falls the magic cleo
tric light throws advertisements on
large screens in conspicuous places in
both large and small cities.
Shout From Mountain Top
Climb to the mountain top and
shout for a solution of the retail mail
order evil, and back over the hills
will come the answer in the echoing
cry ADVERTISED"
The life, the fame, the success, the
hope and future of commerce lie in
that one magic word.
Advertising is unquestionably the
weapon which will make the commun-
ity worthless for the retail catalogue
houses, but it is not absolutely nee
essary that printed matter be the
whole thing.
Personal and individual advertising
is most helpful. 1t is such advertis-
ing that gives retail mail order
houses their trade.
And through advertising the local
merchants can deprive them of such
Of the trade that comes from their
community.
Fighting the Prairie Fire
The western farmer fights the
prairie fire with little fire of his
own, which, kept always under con-
troll, he so uses that the bigger fire,
finding no fuel there on which to feed,
sweeps by and leaves him safe.
SO, in your advertising, you have
your saving fire with which to fight
the consuming competition of retail
mail order. houses.
The printed matter, of course,
must continue to be the main reliance
for urging people to enter your store.
Show windows, however good, are
sure to be seen only by few of those
who might need to trade with you.
while personal invitations cannot be
given quickly enough to a sufficient
number to answer everyday purposes.
1t is through printed matter that
the retail mail order house offerings
are constantly made, and, if for no
other reason than to prove the deter
mination at least to match their eff
forts for trade in your community,
use the local press and printed matter
enough to let no one whose trade
should be yours forget that you are
in a position to fill his wants.
They do not buy the farmers stock
and hogs.
They do not help support your
schools, churches and charitable in
stitutions.
