SherIey Hunter. in Address at
MiIwaukee Meeting. Talks
Of SELLING Copy"

MILWAUKEE,. June 13.-Far too
little attention is given to writing
craftsmanship in the preparation Of
advertising copy by retail mer-
chants. In the opinion OF Sherley
Hunter. Of Chicago, who has at.
tained a national reputation as on
advertising writer. He told retail
advertisers attending the annual
convention OF the Associated Adver.
tising Clubs Of the World. here this
morning, that advertisements should
be news, and he insisted that busi-
ness houses are too easily contented
when they 60 to look for an adves-
Using man.
"It is not necessary for q good re-
porter to be a bomber In order to
find the news about q bombing. or
to ts u surgeon to get the news Of q
famous clinic. or q murderer to
write good murder story, or to be
hanged before being eligible to get
the news and write a good hanging
story" he said.
Advertising as News.
"a good newspaper mana real
Journalists real advertising man -
can find the news and write 1t about
anything, better than those who are
too close to 1t. too experienced In the
subject"
"They are becoming conscious Of
the fact that too much attention has
been paid to selling in advertisement
discussion and too little considers.
ton to the talent Of finding and pur-
veying interesting news-the incit.
ing and satisfying Of curiosity--the
mechanics Of real writing. piqueing
art work. and the part physical ap.
pearance Of an advertisement plays
in getting a message read" the
speaker declared.
1T gives q fellow pain to have
some one jump up and begin lam
basting the advertiser and advertis-
ing man about selling copy and the
fearful waste in publications because
the city is not selling copy.
"Of course" he continued, the
hue and cry attracts the merchant
and manufacturer-becau they are
interested in selling merchandise
and increasing volume. Essentially
they are salesmen, not advertising
men, not journalists. And always
this results in wasting the good
things which have gradually entered
advertising.
Even today some young snort,
Just out of high school. with q little
experience at selling advertising

land a position as an advertising
manager in some retail establish

vertising agency.
Advertisers' Fault.
Can we wonder that Advertising
has made so little progress-propor-
tional to the amount of money and
space spent?" Mr.. Hunter asked.
