ADVERTISING WAY TO

WIN BUSINESS
Small Town Dealer Can Be Success
full If He VIII Accept Opportuni-
ties-Local Paper Points
Way.
Retailer Should Look UuOn Publicity
i'm Home Publication as an Invest
ment, Not an Expense, Says
Speaker.
(From The Publishers Auxiliary
If the retail dealer has wasted his
advertising opportunities his custom
ers will heed the call of the appealing
advertising of the stores in other
towns and If he has not been wasting
his opportunities he will get the bust
ness. This was the assertion made by
Charles Simmons of Waterloo in an
address at Sioux City, Ia, on Wasted
Opportunities in Advertising" His
remarks will be of interest to readers
of the Auxiliary because of his advo-
cacy Of the use of the local newspa-
per by all merchants.
THE large city stores have been
educating the small town dealers Gus
toners to a better way of living" Mr..
Simmons declared. Their advertis-
ing has appealed to pride-has created
desire for better clothes, better fur
niture, more comfortable and conven-
lent living conditions. When the auto
mobile and interurban comes they
heed the call of this advertising and
run to the city to make their pur-
chases.
THAT is, they do if the small town
dealer is wasting opportunities. If
he has not been wasting his oppor-
tunities-if he has not been telling
them what he can do for them, if he
has been tying up his advertising with
national advertising, consistently and
persistently, then he gets the bust
ness"
MaiI-Order House to Stay.
Opportunities exist in the advertis-
ing of the mail-order houses, said Mr..
Simmons. There is no use writing
columes about these houses. All res
olutions passed by retailers won't put
them out of business, he pointed out.
The mail order houses fill a niche in
commercial economies; they are legit-
innate business and have come to stay,
Mr. Simmons told his audience.
The thing you retailers must do is
combat them with your own weapons"
Mr.. Simmons asserted. Take advan-
tage of the opportunities they create.
advertising built them advertising
and apparently low prices.
"All the business done by mail-order
houses hasn't come out of your pock-
cts. There is lots of stuff sold by
them that people never heard about
until they read about it in the mail
order catalog.
THE catalog houses have created
a big part of their market by telling
the people how desirable this or that
would be to save labor, save money, |
add to comfort and make life more
livable.
True, you may have stocked these |
things all the time. but you never
thought of telling your possible GUS
toners about them.
Power of Advertising.
when the publisher of your local
paper solicits your advertising you
felt he was asking a donation to en-
able him to live. You couldn't see !

No Open Cars on Groton and Ston
 inqIon,

There are to be no open cars on the line of the Groton and Stoning- ton this summer unless in times when the closed ones are all in use. From Groton to Westerly the stretch of country, even through the woods is breezy and the open cars are often disagreeable on that account. Added to this feature the many rainy days when it is impossible to keep the passengers in any degree of comfort and the closed cars with open win dows will be seen at once to be the most practicable way of dealing with the situation for the pleasure of both the patrons and the crews of the cars
