July Trade Made.
Like NOUember's
By Advertising

Turning what is ordinarily the dull
est month of the year into one of the
busiest months of the year is the feat
that has been performed by the Bry-
BLOCK Mercantile company with their
New York Purchase sale. The success
OF this sale is attributed to the extern
sive, advertising of new marketable
goods at ow prices.
Approximately 10, 900 inches of news
paper advertising has been used so far
in acquainting the public with the de-
tails of the New York Purchase sale.
VIM. ]. Speck, advertising manager
for Bry's, stated to a News Scimitar
reporter that the business done by
the firm on the purchase sale during
the month Of July would bring that r.
dinarily very dull month on a par with
the months of October and November.
Mr.. Speck's theory is that the buying
public is just as anxious and willing TO
purchase merchandise during July as
1t is at any other season Of the year.
He believes that by placing fresh, new
merchandise on display and acquainting
the buying public with the goods to be
placed or sale 1t can be moved during
July as well as at any other time of
' the year.
This advertising campaign carried
out under Mr.. Speck's direction is ona
of the largest newspaper advertising
campaigns ever waged by a single mer-
camille establishment in Memphis, The
members of the firm are thoroughly
convinced that lit pays to advertise.
