WHY SMITH WRITES JAzzY ADS

WHY SMITH WIKI eS JAZZf Aus
This is not the poorest way TO ad-
vertise.
It's jazzy.
You know JAZZ Is up-to- date.
Let an orchestra render the meto-
dious strains of Wagner. Verdi or
Beethoven and the rising generation
is unmoved..
But o. u. Shimmy stuff!
can not enthuse over Livery stable
Blues.
Give me the Anvil Chorus.
Or Poet and Peasant.
Or Faust or Tanhauser or even The
Chimes of Normandy.
Then why write jazzy ads?
Because [ can not write like Whit
tier, LongfelIow or Shakespeare and
don't want 70 write like kipling.
don't want to cast reflection on
others in this business by claiming to
be the one that put ''tog" in photog-
rapher.
So ! just say come up and We will
do everything in our power to make
you a friend OF the
