ticle may be 100 per cent meritorious,
but there is no doubt that your adj
vertising has been mainly .esposlble
for its success. The mind Of the ILL
quirer, which is the public, depends
absolutely in hearing what you first
have to say and saying it in such a way
that it gets across.
Advertising has long since been re-
cognized as a clean, upbuilding indus
try. OF course, there are dishonest adj
vertisers, as there are dishonest people
in. every other line: but dishonesty in
any form is bound to fall in time
from its own dead weight, for it had
nothing on which to stand.
A good advertiser is not troubled by
cut and-dred methods of established
rule. He prefers to strike out into
bypaths of originality and freshen the
public zest by telling them something
they never knew before The public
will like it and call for more, 1t IS
this combination of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
catch phrase perhaps-together with
constant repetition, that begins to jim
gle pleasantly on the public ear after a
time The process of upbuilding may
seem tedious, but when you least ex-
pect it the ear will have become so
attuned to associating certain com
modities with high-class advertising
that this face alone is sufficient reason
for preference
The merchant who wants to sue
coed no matter how small his present
outlook, should take this matter oil
advertising as he takes any other phase
of mis- business and make provision fol
it, even though the immediate returns
are not evident at first. Keeping ever
lastingly at it is the secret OF ultimate

Are You on Main Street?
(By William WrigIey Jr)

(By William Wrigley, Jr)
If you were contemplating entering
business for yourself, even in small
way, you would not choose some OBJ
scure side street and then, having set
tied yourself, further complete your
"out -of-the-way- by carefully, OBJ
literating all traces of your trail, That
is. YOU would not do any OF these
things if you were a good business man
and wanted to succeed. Neither would
YOU place spasmodc advertising in the
Gabby Gazette (if you happened to
live in small town or put an annual
semiannual or merely a holiday greet
ing in whatever channel you selected
as your advertising medium and then
trust to luck, which is a mighty poor
substitute for push.
On the contrary, if you were an
alert. keen minded business man, with
an expert knowledge of the phychologi-
cal effect Of the result in keeping your
self and what you wish the public to
know you have ever in mind, you
would hammer away at that pubic
with a policy of advertising that would
make them try it eventually, out OF
sheer curiosity to see what all the
noise was about.
No particular instances need be cited
as to the power of name in advertiS-
ing You can recall dozen or more
offhand. The majority of the buying
public know little of the relative differ
ence in the excellence of the various
advertised commodities, but they are
quick to seize on the particular one
which greets their eye Systematically
and steadily through all the various
mediums of advertising and hat IS
the one which will most readily be
decided upon as possessing the great

which has succeeded in bringing about
