PUBLICITY WHAT
ADVERTISER WANTS

Publicity-general, countrywide
is what the advertiser wants in
spending his money for printers
ink.
Just handful of readers in one
locality is not the right kind of pub
Lefty for the wide-awake merchant
who wants to exploit his goods and
prices so as to give the whole public
an advantage.
For eighteen long years the En-
terprise has been striving with all
it's might and main to build just
such circulation that would give
the advertiser his moneys worth.
To-day the Enterprise can conscien-
tiously say it has circulation COW
ering the entire county. No other
medium in this entire section offers
what the Enterprise offers the mer-
chants of Weakley County-general,
countrywide publicity.
This kind of publicity is thing
not to be sneezed at. 1t is thing
to be highly priced, as it is by the
dozens of regular patrons of the ad-
vertising columns of the Enter
prise-patrons who use these col
umns week in and week out dur
ing the year and draw to them large
volumes of trade.
That is what the Enterprise ad-
vertising columns offers to all live,
wide-awake merchants and business
men, real estate dealers, those hav-
ing farmers and other real estate to
sell.
But speaking of subscribers, you
don't have to take our word for it
we give every week published list
Of new and renewal subscribers, as
will be found below, this being our
list for last week up to Friday

are entirely different to that of this
