SEARCHED BY GUARD
The indispensable Newspaper

The place the daily newspaper holds in the business and
social life of any community was never more fully emphasized
than in the recent strike of the pressmen in the city of New
York.
The strike has removed any doubts that may have existed
of the value of newspaper advertising and its superiority over
all other advertising devices. 1t has brought to light the de-
pendence to buyers as well as sellers upon the advertising
columns of the daily papers. New York city's great stores, or
dinar1y crowded with shoppers in this season, have been al
most empty, because they were unable to reach the buying
public with the customary daily announcements of their wares
and prices.
The theaters of the city and the places of amusement and
public entertainment remained practically deserted. There
was a great vacancy in the lives of the people. 1t began when
the morning editions ordinarily would make their appearance
at breakfast time, and continued Throughout, the day, when the
early afternoon editions would under normal circumstances
appear on the streets, on to dinner time when the final after
noon papers would wind up the day. The countless purposes
of reference TO the newspaper pages in the days business
could not be answered, and it was practically impossible to
put over the business day with any degree of satisfaction.
The reading public and the business public were lost.
Bond and brokerage houses, investment bankers and stock
ton of full newspaper service. In fact its effects have been felt
in every range of mercantile, financial and social activities.
1t has been a remarkable demonstration of the power of news
paper advertising as a promoter of business and no less a
demonstration of the complete dependence for a wide variety
of service, which no other single agency could provide except
at a cost that would be prohibitive.
What is true Of the great metropolis is true in degree of
cities of lesser size, of towns, villages and small communities.
The modern newspaper occupies a place in the scheme of
things for which no substitute can be supplied.
