WAR ACTIVITIES ADVERTISING

While the United States Govern
ment has refused to make any appro-
priation for newspaper advertising,
although spending millions of dollars
for posters, yet it has encouraged as
far as possible the use of the adver-
Using columns of the papers for the
furtherance of various war activities,
such as the sale of Liberty Bonds,
Red Cross drives, the sale Of War
Savings and Thrift Stamps, to be un
derwritten or paid for by patriotic
citizens and business establishments.
This has been done very copiously in
most sections of the country, but for
some reason has not appealed to peo-
pie here. 1t is manifestly unjust to
expect that the newspaper can bear
all these loads alone. We are already
devoting the major portion of The
Record to conservation and various
war activities, and it is only fair that
at least a portion of the display space

Local Merchants Corner

As already mentioned in these columns
Cedar City is natural trading CEN
ter, and if the business people of this
place are fully alive to their POSSIBLE
tiles, they can attract trade here from
all the surrounding district.
The Record, too, has gone to good
deal of expense and trouble to pro-
vide service. We are printing the big
gest all-home-print paper south of
Salt Lake City. We are setting more
type, and have more space available
for the use of merchants than any
paper in the southern part of the
state. Yet we are buying plate mat
ter to fill much cf this space which
should be used by merchants, and
would be if they were thoroughly alive
to their possibilities and advantages.
Try spending some of the money
that 81 now paid to clerks who are
busy only a very few hours each day,
if at all, for newspaper space and the
need for clerical assistance will be
increased.

THE QUESTION OF SERVICE

In point of buildings and equipment
the stores of Cedar City will COM
pare with any to be found in towns
of like size in the western country;
in fact, we believe that we can safely
say that some of our local institutions
are leaders in this respect. We have
some stores of which the town can
well feel proud, We have been ac-
cused of going ahead of the times
and building better stores than the
business warranted, but we do not
believe this is the case. 1t is proper
and right that we should constantly
keep an eye ahead along the track
and make provision for the future a
short distance, at least, ahead. This
in effect is what Cedar mercantile com
panies have done, and we believe that
it is no mistake, if the investment
thus made is used to the best possible
advantage. A little more enterprise
more planning and little more ener'
gy in some cases would help mater
tally. Much valuable show window
space is allowed to go to waste, either
clerks are negecting their bushes.
or too many are employed, in some
cases. This energy and this invest
ment should be made to bring bust
ness-new business-to Cedar City

PLAN YOUR WORK

One OF the fundamental principles
of successful business-in fact the
most essential thing-is planning"
Every writer on the subject of Eflic-
iency lays special stress on the i'm
portance of Planning. Plans and re-
ords, are the foundation of efficiency.
The man who is content to let things
drift along as they happen, rather
than to take the trouble of keeping
records of accomplishments and plan
ming improvements, is not business
man. There is no use to growl be-
cause more business does not come
to you-because too much cash is be-
ing sent away to mail order houses.
The thing to do is to look around for
the cause and "plan" to overcome the
evil.
Every manager of mercantile or
other business establishment should
have definite plan or program map
ped out for each day, week and month.
All details cannot be filled in a month
ahead, of course, but the general plan
and improvements can be decided on
and the details worked out as you go
along-but always in advance. From
time to time it is necessary to change
and amend plans, as we all know; but
if we have a definite object in view we
are very much more likely to obtain
it than if you go along in haphazard
manner, depending upon intuition to
guide us.
In order to plan successfully, one
must be quiet and undisturbed, so fan
as possible. After business hours, in
the early morning or on Sunday is g
good time to plan. Merchants should
plan a definite program for increasing
their sales each week, at least, and
at the beginning of the week is the
best time to do this. Try it, Mr.
Merchant. Get where you are quiet
and think what you can do to increase
your sales, and better please your
customers. Have at hand data or
the condition of your stock, and the
way it is moving. There are many
ways of stimulating trade and of max
ing the goods in each department earn
dividend. Scheme how to reach the
catalog "fend" and induce him to keep
his money at home. Make your adj
vertising, whether dodgers, posters
newspaper or whatever it may con-
sist of, work in with and help the gen.
eral plan of your work, and you will
be surprised to find how very easy il
is to write advertising copy.
Picture in your minds eye hundreds
of families throughout this county
with big Sears & Scratchback cata
log on their center tables, with mem
bers pouring over the bargains p
therein contained. Plan how you car
divert their attention from the cata
log and rivet it upon the merchandise,
in your store.
Plan every detail of your week.
campaign ahead Use your newspaper
advertising as lever, self-startel
"a crank, if you will-to set the ma
chine in motion. You can accomplish
a great deal if you will only try.

SWINE, SHEEP AND POULTRY

The best possible means OF relieving
the meat situation would be TO in
crease the number of hogs on every
farm. For the average small farmer
the hog and poultry offer the most
effective means of increasing the meat
output at any time in the near future.
Many farms could also carry a small

utilized in this connection should be
paid for. In the last Liberty Loan
drive, besides the many columns of
publicity given in the news section,
we published a full page advertisement
at our own expense, paying for the
plates and contributing the space. The
only paid advertisement appearing
was quarter page given by the Iron
Com. q Savings Bank. We did not
make a very thorough canvass, to be
sure, but in other places the commit
tees having the drive in charge in the
localities have sold this display space.
In the last Red Cross drive, the
district manager at Denver obtained
full information from us as to rates,
size of pages, ETC., and advised us that
the committee for this county would
sell quantity Of space in our paper
to local business houses or patriotic
citizens, and instructing where we
could obtain the advertisements IN
plate form. That is the last we heard
of the matter. The director of the
Mountain Division Of the Red Cross,
residing in Colorado, evidently did not
understand the position of the country
press in this state. Over there the
country press is looked upon as a vital
/ factor in the social elements of the
community, and people are glad to do
what they can to extend its sphere of
usefulness.
Now we have before us a commune
cation from James p. Casey, director
of publicity for this state in the big
War Savings and Thrift Stamps drive
which is impending. In part Mr.. Casey
says:
LET me suggest that you keep in
close touch with your county or local
chairman and carry local story each
week on the progress being made By
your committee. The Western News.
paper Union will also be able to sup
ply you with a series of display adver.
tisements of any number and size to
meet your needs.
at will help the campaign mater
tally in your locality if you will order
the advertisements and sell them to
public spirited men or firms in your
town. 1t is also a good plan to urge
all your regular advertisers to devote
a part of their space each week to War
Savings.
Utah has big job ahead and must
90 over the top. Events of the past
few days on the Western front should
impress all of us with the necessity of
doing our utmost while there is time
In these money-raising campaigns
there is no stronger force than the
newspapers and our success in former
campaigns has been due in a very
large measure to your liberal and pa
triotic cooperation. Work with your
chairman to put your county over the
top early in the game and call on me
for any help may be able to give you
''If it is not asking too much will
you please send me a marked copy OF
each issue of your paper until the
campaign closes"
These are the sort of appeals that
we are responding to every week, anc
glad we are to do our part; but We
could do it with more comfort and 6
better grace, if the local people, anC
particularly officials having the var
ious activities in charge, would see tC
il that we are given at least some OF
the paid advertising that it is con
templated that we will receive.
