worst being that he had "conversed
with a maiden and did car
~ her across a stream, to the infinite
relish of the devil"
The abbot rose in wrath. "John

be cast into the outer world! Seize
him and scOurge him from the pre-

But the culprit had Iifferent plans
Lifting the big oaken desk he hurled

Alleyne was learned clerk, skilled

fair but evil women who slay with be-

prayers, blessings and warnings from |
the abbot against sin and the snares
of women, Alleyne left the peaceful
abbey and went out into the world. |
And he found II fearful place.
His only relative was a brother. now

an evil name. Alleyne decided to go

On the way he was set upon by rob-

made sick by seeing one robber shot

"Talks on Newspaper Advertising"

lower the cost of an article
to the consumer? The
answer is, by increasing
the volume of sales and
quick turnover. Econ
omies in manufacturing
are brought about by
quantity production, and
quantity production is
brought about by adver-
tising. These economies
that are brought about by
quantity production en-
able the manufacturer to
sell an article much cheap
er than he could sell it
with small production and
small volume of sales.
Two manufacturers are
engaged in making a shaw
ing cream. Neither of
them advertiSeS and the
sales of each are one hun
dred thousand tubes per
year. One manufacturer
determines to advertise
and appropriates one cent
on each tube sold. Pres
emily he finds his market
expanded to meet a de-
mand of two hundred
thousand tubes a year. He
discovers that economies
in manufacture now make
it possible to lower the
cost per tube. The next
year he increases his ap-
preparation to two cents

he is not paying for his
advertising. \ The person
who buys an advertised
product pays for the raw
material, for the cost of
manufacturing, and the
cost of distribution (Which
includes advertiSing.)
But the real question
is, would the consumer
pay less if the commodity
were not advertised? AS
a matter of fact he would
not buy it at all if it were
not advertised-he would
never have heard of it.
Can you imagine a woman
going into a store and ask
ing for an article she never
heard of? But granted,
for the sake of argument,
that a person might 60
into a store and ask for
something she had never
heard of, does it cost her
more for having been ad-
vertiSed? The answer is
NO. 1t may, and prob
ably does, cost her less
than if it had not been adj
vertiSed.
There is nothing intri-
cate or complex about this
proposition. 1t is very
simple if one will care to
consider the elemental
principles of manufacture
ing and merchandising.

METER COMPLAINTS
REACH HIGH TOTAL
1900 Received by Public UtiIi-
ties in February-Testers
Unable to Catch Up.

More than AZ per cent OF the 97l
gas meters tested by the Public
Utilities Commission during the
month of February were found to be
running fast. e. c. Runyan, inspector
OF gas meters for the commission. said
today.
During the month, Runyan said. the
commissio received more than 300
complaints about meters. the largest
number recorded In one month In the
history of the office. The average
number OF complaints is 450
Runyan also declared that many OF
the meters tested were found to be
running slow, but figures showing
their number are not available.
For every meter running fast. the
" ashington Gas Light Company has
made a refund to the consumer.

hundred thousand tubes,
and still further lowers his
factory cost, thereby i'm
creasing his profit. The
third years increase of his
advertising appropriation
increases his distribution to
five hundred thousand
tubes, still further reduc-
ing the cost of production.
He finally decides that his
profit is too large. He cuts
the p~ice below what it
was during the first year
and makes twice the
profit.
This is no fanciful the
ory, but is a mathematical
proposition from which
there is no escape. The
manufacturer reduces the
selling price to the con-
sumner and actually makes
a larger profit through
quantity production that
comes as a result of ad-
vertising. J

Who Pays For
Advertising :?

This question has been
asked a little over seven
million times and has been
answered in all sorts of
ways. One chap with a
double decker brain says
advertising pays for it
SELF" This is a good an
swer, but does not mean
anything. 1t does not
answer the real question
that is in the mind of the
consumer. What he really
wants to know is, "Does
advertising add to the cost
of a commodity3" If it
does, then surely the con-
sumner pays tor 1t.
Let us not indulge in
any rhetorical flapdoodle
or camouflage in answer
ing this question. We can
afford to be very frank
and honest about it. Ad-
vertising does not need
any deception to justify
its use as a factor in dis
tribution.
Of course the consumer
pays for the advertising
some one pays for it.
