take judged from any viewpoint

LAUDS DIRECTORIES As
ADVERTISING MEDIUM

In the last of the departmental ses-
sions Of the Association Of North Amer
lean Directory Publishers, W. r. Nc
Lain. president of the McLain- Hadden-
Shippers Company, an advertising agency
Of Philadelphia. addressed the members
on 1.-The Place of Reference Advertis-
ing in the General Merchandising Cam
paign."
Reference advertising" he said, in
directories. condensed catalogues and
similar books. is of especial value when
there is 'hOokup between such adver-
Using and the space the advertiser en-
ploys in business papers and other ad-
vertising mediums"
Much time and catalog money can be
saved by referring prospective buyers to
the reference books for information in
stead of requesting that they send for
individual catalOgs, he said.
