is free, but after he is gone you will
have to pay an attorney and perhaps
make a trip or two to the city to get

the salesman OF the house that dis
tributes them-wha points should be
brought out in advertising his goods.
Started on this theme any salesman
can give plenty of good talking points
on his stuff, all of which will convey
real information. When you cut bull"
talk out of an ad and put in real facts
tending to show what the goods are and
how they are made. then you appeal to
the .public's common sense and you con-
vince them.
If you state where an article is made
and what it is made of the public feels
that the producers of it stand behind
their goods and are frankly willing to
show up just how they are made. Gaia.
logues of wholesale houses contain
much information about goods that will
make retail advertising more interest.

SMILE AND BE OPTIMISTIC,
LET THE PRICES TUMBLE
(By the Observer)

(by the ODSerVer)
Let's be optimistic, the sun is
shining again, Henry Ford has re-
duced the price of his buzz wagons,
and expert economists tell US that
prices are going to tumble on COM
modities made of the same materials
used in Fords. Let's be optimistic
and not growl about the time it takes,
Think how many years prices have
been going up.
The farmer can be optimistic, not
only over the predicted drop in
prices, but also over the recent adj
vance in the wholesale price of eggs
and milk. Such combination as
this, drop in the price of commodi-
ties he has to buy and an advance in
price on his products, ought to
cause him to smile from ear to ear
and enable him to make ends meet.
Drop one price, and another one
drops and soon therell be lots and
lots of drops.
"Smile and while you smile, another
smiles and soon the,ell be lots and
lots of smiles"
