WHY
Is q Notice Called . ''BulIetin2''

nFFHAND, the word 'BuIie-
" tin." which we have come to
understand as meaning a short
proclamation or announcement,
appears to have as little connec-
tion--so far as the sense goes
with bullet" as it has with
bull" But, in reality, it Is a
first cousin, for both bullet"
and ''bulletin" are from the Latin
''bulla," meaning seal or little
round knob OF lead attached to
document as evidence. that II
has been officially promulgated.
While bullet" however, has a
direct connection, due to the
similarity In appearance Of the
two objects. bulletin" approaches
its source in a rather roundabout
manner. Because Of the bulls"
or seal which was affixed to
papal pronouncements, these
came In time to be referred to
as bulls" a name which has
persisted to the present day.
while bulletin" is merely Q
Gallo diminutive OF the same
word, used for an announcement

"HE daily newspaper is one
Of the greatest forces for
public good in. American
life. And great as is the educa-
tional quality of the news col
umns, and Of the learned editorial
comment, 1t is not in these,
venture to believe lies the great
est value Of the newspaper to the
people at large. No, the true mir
ror Of the times; the true reflec-
ton Of our national prosperity;
the true hope for the future is to
be found in the vivid, electric,
stimulating advertising columns,
without which the making of the
modern newspaper would not be
possible.
To the regular reader of
metropolitan newspaper comes al
most unconsciously on his part a
full and adequate knowledge OF
the great merchants and the
great merchandise that do honor
to the solidity, the integrity, the
honest and the fair dealing Of this
great country of ours. And / am
anxious that you. should realize
as I, who have been conducting
an advertising agency for many
years, realize through experience
that advertising is not a selfish
enterprise. II
do not mean that advertisers
are philanthropists, but mean
that by advertising they establish
names on which you know you
can rely; they establish good will,
because they have taught the
public to trust them; they estab-
lish trade-marked goods so def
nitely good, so Worthily manufac'
tured and SO invariable and fine
in quality that the consumer has
learned how implicitly he may rely
on these, and so save waste in
buying and economy by avoiding
experiment.
The standards in buying which
the general public relies upon
have been established only by
high class advertising. First the
quality Of the product is establish
ed then the name Is established
and thereafter, as the quality 10
steadily maintained or improved,
the name, which becomes, by con-
slant and persistent advertising
household word, becomes In
creasingly valuable and standard.
You have only to think mo-
ment of the advertised articles
that you regard as standard or
their class to understand now
valuable advertising has been to
the great consumer.

Let me give one concrete In

vertising gives to the consumer:
When in 1870 the price of grapes
was 81 a ton, the price of grape
juice to the consumer was $24
case. In 1890 with grapes selling
at $40 a ton, the output Of grape
Juice had been so increased by
advertising that it was possible
to sell it at $4.75 a case. Then
grape prices steadily advanced
until In 1921 the grape Juice man.
ufacturers paid $135 a ton, an
advance Of 1850 per cent; but at
the same time the cost Of grape
juice advanced only IS per cent.
It was the increased demand
caused by national advertising
that enabled the economies of big
scale production and made the
product cheaper to all customers.
