in many other ways, national advertising
is constantly creating markets for new
merchandise and opening up new chan
nels of trade.
1t is because America reads advertis-
ing that the new idea today so swiftly
supplants the old. Advertising changes
deep-rooted- habits. Advertising creates
new desires. Advertising sets new and
better standards And all this it does
with amazing swiftness-for advertising
speaks to millions simultaneously.
The safety razor, the player piano,
massage cream, the glass baking dish,
wallboard, hreproof roofing, the talking
machine soap flakes. canned soup
one could go on indefinitely extending
the list of products which today testify
to the ability of national advertising to
create new merchandise demands.
There is probably no industry today
for which advertising has not blazed
new trails. There is no merchant, whole
sale or @retail, the scope of whose bust
ness it has not greatly widened.
But the main thing which adver-
Using does for the retailer is to speed up
his turnover; that's what makes him
profit. ts~N

Making New Markets
With Printers Ink

One of the most striking changes of the
past ten years is that which has come
about in the important business of house
keeping In this short time the broom and
the washboard have vanished from the
housewives coat of arms, and the comic
pictures in which Mary hurls the flatiron
at John don t ring true as they once did.
Broom, dashboard and flatiron have
given way to suction sweeper, electric
washing machine and electric iron. And
Mary doesn't hurl the iron at John any
longer, not simply because it fastened
to a cord, but because she's taking no
chances with it.
What has brought about this new and
agreeable state of affairs? Well, how
did Mary happen to buy that new iron
which has proved such boon to herself
and Jehn9 She saw it advertised, of
course. And the multiplied Marys of
today represent great market created
largely through national advertising.
No wonder the alert retailer and the
wholesaler have come to hold national
advertising in high esteem-for besides
making easier for them the sale of goods
with long established markets, quickened
their turnover, protecting them against
inferior merchandise and benefiting them.
