You can meet up with anybody in
the United States and quickly get
on conversational footing because
you both read the same advertise
ments.
Advertising is the daily guide to
what's good to buy.
Advertisements give you the latest
news from the front line of business
progress.
Reading advertisements enables you
to get more for your money because
they tell you where, what and when
to buy.
And it is a weII-known fact that adj
vertised goods are more reliable end
better value than the unadvertised
kinds.

Jim Hawkins props his feet on the
