The Hardest Job I'M Every Business

TN nearly every line production has been
increased on account of the war. The
Il hardest job ahead is to find a market in
peace times for what those factories turn out.
Money is made-not in manufacturing but
In selling. Yet selling seldom receives the
attention 1t deserves.
The number of factories a manufactures can
build-the profit he can earn-are limited by
the amount of merchandise for which he can
find profitable market.
If demand can be kept ahead Of production, a
profitable market is sure. And the one way to
keep demand ahead of production is by adver-
Using - teaching the public to use more of
your goods
In the past the South has bent her energies on
manufacturing The marketing of her prod
ucts were largely left to others who took the
raw materials and staples and converted
them into specialties, trade-marked, adver-
tised and sold them And, invariably, it is the
selling ofspecialtiest that pays the wide margin
of profit and the selling of staples that pays
the slim.
Greater profits keeping conditions in our
hands instead of on them-depend upon our
marketing our goods as well as upon our max
ing them.
The South's cotton goods should be known BY
brand-names in Detroit just as we know and
buy the various makes of automobiles pro-
duced by the citizens of that enterprising
Michigan city.
Lumber, of which the South is the Nations
greatest possessor, will be needed for recon-
struction and the merits of our various woods
should be convincingy told by advertising.
The South is the greatest fat-producing sec
ton of America. In the vegetable oils from
her cotton-seed, peanuts and soy beans she
produces more fat than all the dairy cows of
America-more fat than all the hogs slaught-
cred in a year. More Southern-made and
marketed compound lards and salad oils
would bring additional millions into Dixie
Richmond daily register. (Richmond, Madison County, Ky.) 1917-1978, 1921-02-08

Cane syrups, coffees and all the other cpl
curean delights for which the South IS famed
would find bigger demand if backed by ade-
quate advertising. And such demand would
automatically fix profitable price.
Marketing our products as we'll as making
them would furnish work for the hands and
brains of our returning>sons provide room
for the talleSt ambition and stop the emlgra-
ton to the North and West of the talented
and ambitious.
There was time when we could sell the
merchant and let him push the goods. But to-
day the hardware, grocery and drug stores
will carry from 900 to TO- 900 different items.
Pushing any one is impossible.
Wise manufacturers are marking their goods
so that they can be recognized - telling the
public about their merits and inducing the
folks to pull them off of the shelves. And in
this respect, at least, an ounce of 'pulP' Is
worth pound of push
The advertising agencies of the South have
had years of experience in advertising and
marketing many commodities. They know
the methods that have proved successful, be
cause their whole time is engrossed with the
problems of selling.
Their contact with leading manufacturers in
many lines has made them intimate with
various methods of winning trade-methods
of securing distribution = fighting substitu-
ton. 1t is their business to know how BUSH
ness is being built.
Their services cost nothing. They are paid a
commission by the publishers to make adver-
Using profitable to the manufacturer. 1t will
be revelation to many business men to know
the varied forms of assistance these agencies
can render-1nformat1o ton on markets, con-
tanners, trademark law, distribution methods,
dealer cooperation, service in preparing
booklets, eopy-writing and real information
on the value Of different classes Of advertising
media.

Hair that loses its color and lustre,

and thousands of women and men who

Nowadays we get this famous mix

ingredients by asking at any drug
store for q bottle of "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" which dark
ems the hair so naturally, so evenly,
that nobody can possibly tell it has
been applied. You just dampen a
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time. BY morning
the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is that. be-

after few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and lustre and gives it

Large Audience Hears
Sermon On Conscience
(Contributed)


With undated interest the large
audience last evening listened earn
estly to the discourse on Con
science by Evangelist Ramsey. The
source Of Conscience was sought
psychClogically, pedngogically and
philosophically and found to be an
element of our mental beng subject
to training under laws Of teaching
and resting upon experience based
upcn the highest moral law which the
speaker declared to be the moral
law Of the Bible and ethics Of Jesus.
The Bible teaches that the conscience
may be good, pure, defiled, evil 1t
also teaches that it is cleased by the
blood Of Jeusus. SO just alone the
conscience is not a true guide A
striking comparison of the Indian
woman throwing her infant to the
crocodiles Of The Gauges and the
ideal Of American motherhood way
drawn, showing that conscience may
be instructed and terrible in its
demands depending upon how the
individual has been taught and the
ideals upon which the action is
based Aside from law to direct the
conscience is not a safe guide.
The subject for tonight is an
nounced as Regeneration" This
word was used by the Savior but
once. It is found but twice in the
Bible. The great Importance Of the
word is taught in other words in the
