ing and the Investment is one that
brings back the greatest calculable re-
turn. An advertisement placed in a
good sized newspaper with say thirty
to forty thousand circulation, is likely
to be seen by hundred thousand peo-
pie. Families are frequently estimated
at five persons, but half of the num-
Der may not be able to read, so the es-
innate of a hundred thousand Is libee-
al enough, and of that number If only
a thousand pay any attention at all
to the advertisement the advertiser
must be we'll repaid.
But the bushes folks who ADVERT Sc
are not the only ones who are ap-
preciating newspaper advertising these
days. The subscribers and the buyers
of newspapers find it both interesting
and profitable to keep in touch with
prevailing prices, modes and offerings
through the press. 1t has come to the
point where practically everybody with
anything to offer appears in print, and
the newspaper readers may give first
attention to the news of the day, sec
ond to society or sports, or the mar
kets, but before they have laid down
the paper they have seen and given
attention to the advertisements.
Systematic advertising Is the fash
ion at this time, and not likely to
proved its efficiency. Newspaper read
ers come to expect certaina announce
ments of business houses at regular
periods, and while they may not
worry over it If the house or corpora
ton fails to appear in the expected
place, the attention will be given TO
some other concern that is certain to
have something attractive to offer
just as regularly as the ice-man or
the milk-man or the fruit vendors at
the door.
The newspaper is the only repre-
sentative of business that can enter the
private apartments without ringing
the bell or waiting to be- invited. 1t is
welcomed in cottage and mansion and
through the integrity and appreciation
of the publishers, it's advertising pa
irons are given more than an introduce
ton; they are practically vouched for
and recommended.
1t can be seen that the newspapers
are obliged to be careful; the Times
Union must be convinced of the hon
esty of an advertiser no less than the
and veracity of those who
;-t,
systematic advertising is worth while
and its vogue is ncreasing.-Times-

We also suggested that a country
wide demand for them might be Gre

might be in the markets the year
around if it were cured so that it
could be shipped safely to distant
parts and safely stored. The southern

case. The federal bureau of markets

Systematic Advertising

Systematic Advertising.
Never before have the newspapers
been obliged to stretch their advertis-
ing columns in order TO accommodate
those who desired the public to know
of their business. Mora and more the
business men of the country are find
ing it pays to advertise. Not only that
they have discovered, some of them
only recently, that it pays to advertise
systematically, regularly. Advertising
has come to be recognized as a dis
tinct and very important adjunct to
business, and the successful business
whatever department of activity con-
cerned, has found out that the people
are waiting to be told of chances and
opportunities - and of the regular
events in business life.
Systematic advertising consists N
directing attention to certain places
and things. and placing before the peo-
facts that 1t is desirable for them to
know. There was once upon time the
idea prevailing that a catch phrase"
was all that was necessary, and an oc-
casional use of printers ink: all this
is out of date in the modern plan of
bringing buyers and sellers together

stated. and by regular and repeated

Made a Good Choice.

maue Gooo Gnolces
After one of the most interesting
and warmly contested elections ever
held in this city, the so-called bankers
ticket was elected, by very satisfac-
tory vote.
The campaign now closed was mark
ed for the absence of much of the old
time election bitterness. True, there
We're many things said that ought not
to have been uttered on the part of
the bankers opponents. but all that
will be forgotten In the knowledge that
the city has obtained commissioners
on whom 1t can thoroughly rely to car
ry out every promise made during the
campign.
Except in one instance, no one Of
the candidates on the bankers ticket
addresses the public. They had been
urged to go into the campaign and ac-
copied the nomination, much against
their will They thought and their SUPP
porters thought that they ought not
to be called upon to do any active cam
paign work. But there were thousands
of earnest men and women who did
valiant service for the ticket, and who
were glad to appear on the platform,
on the streets and at the polls for the
men now elected.
Not one word has been said by the
winning side, any of its candidates or
speakers, that could be construed into
criticism of any Of the tickets OPP
ponents. 1t was recognized that the
independent ticket was made UP of
good men, men who will readily join
hands with all in making Miami the
great city we hope it to be, and, there
fore, no word derogatory to the char
acter of their opponents was permitted
and no criticism of them was INDUCED
in.
BY the election of these five men the
city of Miami is assured of the very
best service in it's commission. 1t will
look to them to accomplish whatever it
is possible to accomplish in the better
ment Of the city, to select competent
men to carry out the provisions of the
charter, to see that the laws are en-
forced and that the city is kept clean,
morally and physically.
There is no doubt that the city has
chosen wisely and well and that from
now on, under the new charter which
will now be given every opportunity
to work out, the city of Miami will
prosper as never before.-Miami Her
