ABOUT ADVERTISING-NO.6 q
IF 1t Fits You Wear
This Cap
By Herbert Kaufman

Advertising isn't a crucible with which
lazy, bigoted and incapable merchants can
turn incompetency into suCcess-but one into
which brains and tenacty and courage can be
poured and changed into dollars. 1t is only
short cut across the fields-not a moving
PLATFORM You can't get there" without
going some.
It's game in which the soorker-not the
shfrker-gets rich.
Bv its measurement every man stands for
~nat he is and tor what he does, not Tor Wnae ne
qyas and what he did.
Every day in the advertising world is another
day and has to be taken care of with the same
energy as it's yesterday.
The quitter can't surviue where the blHgge,
has ghost OF chance.
Advertising doesn't take the place of bu.i-
ness talent or business management. 1t simply
tells what the business Is and hoe0 1t is managed.
The snob whose father created and who Is
content to live on what was handed to him
can't stand up against the man who knows ne
must build for himself.
What makes you think that you are; entitled
to prosper as we'll as a competitor who Dorks
tevice as hard for his prosperity?
Why should as many people come to your
store as patronize shop that makes an endeavor
to pet their trade and shows them that it is
spoyth svhile to come to its doors?
Why should newspaper send as many Gus
toners to yon in half the time it took to fill an
establishment which advertised tqUfce as long
and baid tzUice as much for its publicity?
This is the day when the best man wins
after he broves that he is the best man-when
the best store wins, when it has shown that it's
the best store-when the best goods win, after
they've been demonstrated to be the best goods.
Ifyou wantthe blumyou can tgetit by lying
under the tree with your mouth open waiting
for it to drop-too many other men are willing
to climb out on the limb and risk their necks
in their eagerness to get it away from you.
1t is mans game-this advertising, just
hanging on and tugging and straining all the
time to pet and keep ahead. 1t is the finite ex-
preston of the law of competition which sits in
blind-foded justice over the markets OF the
world.

CEMETERY AT POMONA

. POMONA, California. - One morn

in the ground under a gigantic syca-

a mystery which puzzled the people
of this community ten years ago and
was never solved The mystery seems
deeper than ever.
One morning about 10 years ago the
cemetery caretaker discovered that
somebody had dug a hole five feet
long and two feet deep under huge
limb of the sycamore. When the incl
dent was investigated it was learned
that man who had just finished serE-
ing 80 years in the Denitentiary had
been seen strolling through the Gem
etery few days earlier. His. history
was traced and it was learned that
the ex-convict had served time for
killing an cid miner. from whom, it
is alleged, he had stolen $4,000 in
gold
The incident caused great excite
ment During the next few weeks
the cemetery was honeycombed with
holes which were dug by treasure
seekers.
