found only standing room available. The
estimated attendance was about two thou

Make
the
Pennies
Bigger

When James Buchanan was
President and tall beaver hats
were in vogue; when gentlemen
wore broad cravatS and ladies
wore hoop skirts the pennies
they tossed to children were as
big as quarters. But the cart
wheel copperS your grandfather
got for keeping his lace collar
clean were not as big in buying
power as the pennies of today.
A penny then might buy pastry, or ten of
them take one to the Fair, but your great-aunt
and great-uncle couldn't have gone to movie
at any price.
Your great-gran'ther may have driven the
fastest horse in the country and paid tidy
sum for it. But the price of stable of thor
oughbreds would not have bought him hivver.
Sixty years ago the ladies could go shopping
for dry goods and buy silks that would make
you green with envy, linens that were linens
and broadcloths that beggar description But
what their favorite store did not have they
usually got along without.
You can pick up your daily newspaper and
in fifteen minutes you can know what the diff
ferent shops offering in fabrics, patterns,
varieties and qualities that great-grandmother
never dreamed could be gathered together un-
der any conditions.
Times have changed, and so have nerchan-
disc and business methods. One Of the inAu-
ences that has helped to bring about so much
of change, that has helped to multiply oppor-
tunities and increased the spending size of our
pennies is advertising.
Every merchant, every manufacturer knows
that advertising materially reduces selling costs
by increasing the demand for and the dstribu-
ton of the products of hundreds of thousands
of mills. Indeed many Of the things we count
today as necessities or simple luxuries could
not be made and sold at their reasonable prices
except as advertising has created broad mar
ket for them, making millions of sales at little
prices and little profits
And so you owe very much to advertising.
You owe much to the people of yesterday who
have read and been influenced by past adver-
Using and so have made possible the economies
and varieties and wide distribution Of merchan-
disc that you enjoy,
You owe present advertising a thorough
reading. A greater familiarity with advertis-
ing with advertisers and advertised merchan-
disc makes continually for the increasing size
of your pennies.

TIE Legitimate use
OF the word Best -

AMONG advertisers it has become an un.
L \ written law that the word "best' should
never be used in talking about ones own product.
Anybody can claim to be "best'.
But getting the public to believe it is another
matter.
The only way a manufacturer honestly knows
his product is "best' is when millions of people
give it their unanimous OK.
This is just true of tires as anything else.
Notice how many u. S. Royal Cord Tires you
see in your own community. Notice, too, that
when man has one Royal Cord his car, he
generally has tonr-and maybe a spare or two
besides.
Stroll along any Automobile Row in the coun-
try, and see how many different cars are making
Royal Cord Tires of the attractions.
Hobnob with L. S. Tire dealer and listen to
what he says.
