wasn't many years ago that
one could d Live along the country
road and read advertisements OF

time advertising must have been
lust as interesting as it is now, as
MANY who were driving by would
stop and scan a poster, board
that had been painted, or any
other kind of ad that had been
posted.
Now days the advertiser uses
the country newspapers and the
subscriber sits on his front porch
and reads every ad just as relig-
iously as he reads the news. In
fact 1t is news good news-neWs
that brings results tn-the customer
