ABOUT ADVERTISING-NO. 7
The Cannon That
Modernized Japan
By Herbert Kaufman.

Business is no longer man to man con-
tact, in which the merchant and the patron
establish beryonal bond any more than bat.
muscle and sinew decide the outcome. 1rade
as well as war has changed in its aspect-both
are noe fought at long range.
Just as present day army of heroes would
have no opportunity to display the tndfvfdn0i
valor of its members, just a merchant who
counts upon his personal acqualntanceshlp TOR
success is relic of the past BURNER doda-
Japan changed her policy of exclusion to
foreigners after fleet of warshlps battered
down the Satsuma Notifications. The Samu~
raj, who had hitherto considered their blades
and bows good enough, discovered that one
cannon was rHightier than all the swords In
creation il they could not get near enough to Use
hem Japan profited by the lesson: She did
not wait until further ramparts were battered to
pieces, but was satisfied with her one experience
and proceeded to modernize her methods.
The merchant who doesn't advertise is pretty
much IN the same position that in which Japan
stood when her eyes opened to the fact thas
tines had changed. The long range publicity OF
competitor will surely destroy your business as the
cannon of the foreigners crumbled the walls OF SAT-
sta Unless take the lesson to heart, unless you
realize the importance Of advertising, not only as the
means of extending your business but tor detend'"g
auences of folly great as that OF a duelst who
expects to survive contest IN which his ddavrSdry
bears ssuord toUice the length Of his o07t.
Don't think that it's too late to begin because
there are SO many stores which have had the advantage
of years of cumulative advertising. The city IS grow
ing It will grow even more next year 1t needs
Increased trading facilities just as it's hungry for new
neighborhoods.
But it will again support nelghbortood stores
Newspaper advertising has eliminated the strength OF
being locally prominent and five cent street car fares
have cut out the advantage of being arownd the
corner" store five miles away reach out through
the columns of the daily newspaper and draw your
next door neighbor to it's asles, while you sit by and
see the people your block enticed away wthout
your being able to retaiate supply neU customers
to take their place.
It is not question of your ability to stand TIE
cost of advertising but of being able to sse tthoHs
It, The thing you have to consider is not only an
extension of your business but holding u1ta yo~ az
ready have.
Advertising is an Investment the cost of which
Is in the same proportion to it's returns as seeds are to
the harvest And it is just preposterous for you TO
consider publicity expense as 1t Would De TOT
