DOES ADVERTISING PAY?
TRADING AT HOME.

| me Dig pfODlem Wltl every DllSi
ness man who has merchandise OF
service to sell is the problem of get
ting his message before the buying
public so that it will stick.
| Advertising matter that goes over
a short route from the printing of.
flee to the Wastebasket Is q waste
of time, money and material, be
sides being an annoyance to the one
who receives it and has to dispose
Of it. Advertising that is printed
on the roof of building Or on a
| signboard by the roadside serves It's
place II the message Is terse enough
andf forceful enough and the let
ters big enpugh--t0 catch the eye
and the attentios Of the hurrying
crowd.
But the real advertising-the pub
ticity which the most successful
business men In the world today
recognize Ia that which carries a
business message to the public
through the columns Of news.
paper or magazine which, in itself,
provides the elements which insure
a careful and attentive reading on
the part of the public.
Year by year the nations large
advertisers are beginning to apnre-
ciate more fully the actual cash
value Of the advertising columns
of the weekly newspaper--the news
paper that goes into the home and
Is read by every member of the
family, and year by year the volume
of national advertising carried by
the weekly newspapers Is increas,
ing,
The weekly carries the news of
the people we know. The daily
nwspaper reaches out into the
world and brings in Its daily grist
of news OF men and events out of
our own circle, and because every
body wants at least a casual touch
with the world the daily is read and
thrown aside It's message is TEN
porafy and for the most part iinper
sOnal.
The weekly touches events in our
own neighborhood, concerning peo
pie whom we know. Tt is a news
letter for the entire community.
whether that community be the
smallest hamlet or great county. |
The readers of weekly newspaper
are in effect family. That which
touches one of them touches all |
So the weekly is read and re-read
The time between publication days |
prints the condensation of news
and the gathering In OF everything |
worthwhile. Tt doesn't have to
take whatever the day brings forth.
tt picks and chooses the little
stories that go to make up its col
umns, and Is editorial expressions
are never more thoughtful and in
cisive for the same reason. 1t is |
thoughtful newspaper, rather than
the mechanical product of day OF
kilograms and impersonal world
news. -.
Because of these things it is the
FAMILY newspaper. Its advertis,
ing columns, as well as its news and
editorial features, are not glanced
at and thrown aside. They are pre-
served from day to day until a new
paper appears and relegates its pre-.
decessor to the pantry shelves
the ultimate end Of most good news
papers.
The well writend, .lewsy, mechan-
ically attractive weekly newspaper
is the best and most substantial
advertising medium In the world.
What national advertisers are ad

perience in publicity cannot be
denied by any business man who
values the experiences of experts
