ADS HOLD DOWN
 PRICE 1T GOODS

Two prominent business men were talking things over not long ago. One of them asked the other, What is the most common delusion in the business world today?" Instantly came the re- ply. "The idea that advertising adds to the price of goods.''
 Every now and then some manufac- turer has the hardihood to say that he can sell his goods cheaper because he doesn't advertise. Everyone who knows the A. B. C. of business knows that this claim is impossible on it's face Yet it sounds plausible and such talk deceives millions of people.
 Forget all these sophistries and lis ten now to the plain common sense of the matter.
 In the production and marketing of goods there are two inevitable costs. One is the manufacturing cost; the other is the selling cost. And no way has ever yet been found by which either of these costs can be eliminated. Mark that
 Whether you buy farm products at a grocery store, or mill products at dry goods store, or laboratory products 1t a drug store-whatever you buy at any store, be sure of one thing: The price includes the selling cost. It must. else the manufacturer, the wholesaler, the retailer and the salesman could not live.
 And just as surely as there are al ways two items of cost, the manufac- turing and the selling, just so surely are there only two ways in which the price of goods can ever be reduced
 One is by economies in manufactur- ing cost. The other is by economies in selling cost.
 Of course it isn't easy to cut manu- featuring cost without cutting the quality.
 But in modern times way has been found to cut selling cost-and it's name is Advertising.
 Advertising is like a straight line; the shortest distance between two points-the producer and the consum- er It cuts out the grades, curves and the angles. 1t makes a drop of ink do the work of salesman. Bear in mind that goods can never be sold unless there is a demand and advertising creates this demand in the simplest most direct and least expensive way No other sales method can equal it in magnitude of return for a minimum of cost
 And the big returns from advertising also cut down the manufacturing cost -llltit dnOI0eT SaNlllS. increased vol tune of production always means a decrease in the unit cost of production through better and more efficient manufacturing methods.
 The Association of National Adver- tisers has recently been gathering some remarkable facts and figures on this subject. They show how one after another of the big advertisers of the country have been able to reduce the price of their product or else to improve the quality at no increase in price. It is a significant fact that na- tionally advertised goods are the only product which, as a class. have not tended to rise in price during the last few years.
 Countless causes are working today to force prices up We all know this by said eXpresience. Against all these forces one force only is working to keep prices down-and it's name is Ad- vertising.
