as Big Jim Harris. He Is now Re-
publican state chairman and would
like 10 succeed Jake L. Hamon as

be guided by the voice OF the state

PUBLICITY |S BEST DEFENSE
 OF LAR BUYER

The average car owner takes it for granted that national Advertising on the part of large manufacturer. is designed primarily to sell his goods, says Wm. Burrows, local manager of the Willard Service Station.
 In part he is correct. in this as sumption. but there Is another phase of national advertising which prob ably does not occur to the mind of the American motorist In buying nationally advertised product. the GUS toner Is protected by this advertis- ing because the public is familiar with the name under which the product is marketed. If the product does not sand up in the service of the custo- mer, this familiarity is far from be- ing an invitation to buy the goods but is warning not to buy them.
 The National Advertiser spends thousands of dollars yearly in remind ing the public that his goods are for sale. He realizes only too well that his product must live up to his ad- vertising in every respect or it will he an expensive boomerang to him. He cannot afford to cut the quality of his goods. His trade name is too val uable to jeopardize in this way. He realizes that advertising is two edged sword which when used prop srIv and hapkad un hv Ouality pro- ducts will carve out for him large volume of business but if the quality of the product Is not maintained the other edge of the sword will but serve to cut the ground from gndr him. Goods which are nationally advertis- ed In the newspapers throughout the country are for this reason, usually safe purchase. The advertising which attracts the buyer aiso protects him

 It is here, they say, that the wave of popularity that beads now enjoy. had it's start, and it ia here that 1t will once more reach it's climax to sink again into it's ''twenty-five years of oblivion as Peter caNs it.

 Cornered Market Long Ago
 Ut used to be easier for me, in the old days; then no one knew any thing about beads but myself, and selling them was like killing ants, a hundred at a time. Now everyone knows more about beads, the depart ment stores keep them, every little shop in the world has few-"but" he raised his long shaking finger - T knew what was coming, and I corner ed the market thirty-seven years ago and why? Because I knew that was the only way to be myself. Now peo- pie must come to me, because they need me I have beads here that no one else has. Beads from Bohemia, Venice, Bugel beads and seed beads, and beads for the loom."

great necessities Of the hour
are confidence and the vitaiz.
ing Of "frozen" credits.
In facing the unprecedented
demands at home and abroad,
our banks have cndeavored to
allocate available credit for the
best economic results. They
have assisted in the creation of
new wealth by cooperating
with essential, solvent business
interests to meet the require
ments of the present and to
prepare for the future.
In the face of an increase Of
1000 IN commodity prices,
the cost of money increased,
on the average, less than as%,
and money has remained the
cheapest clement in business
enterprise. BY reason of their
conservative handling Of the
situation, American banks as
whole are in splendid condition
to serve the business commu-
nifty in taking advantage of the
opportunities ahead.
This Company has parnci-
pated in this constructivebank-
