FRIENDLY ADVERTISING

Illustrating the present trend of good will ad
vertising, plan recently adopted by railroad in
the South is interesting.
Recognizing the important function of the
local station agent, through whom most patrons
of the road have their only contact with the
agement and its policies, the advertising seeks
to bring the agent in closer touch with his COM
munity.
This is done in a quarter page space in the
local paper with picture of the agent and little
sketch of his service with the road accompanied
with reading matter explaining how he may be of
greater service in advising the public concerning
their travelling and shipping problems.
This is in line with the policy of many retail
stores which include pictures of their leading
salespeople in their advertising from time to time
There is something about this kind of advertising
which compes attention, for nothing in the world
is more interesting than people, particularly local
people.
Intimate, friendly advertising is to a great ex-
tent taking the place of the bombastc, exaggerated
style SO prevalent few years ago. The new
method is more pleasing and interesting hence
more profitable to the advertiser.

SIMPLICITY AND sopHlsrrcArIoN

Back in Theodore Roosevet's days, simplicity
was ideal much cherished The famous Rough
Rider president constantly preached that idea. He
urged people to find pleasure in hard work, in
self denial. in service, rather than in surrounding
themselves with luxures. He felt that peoples
activities had become complex and they demand
so many amusements and experiences to keep them
happy. that they load themselves down with heavy
burdens.
= Our beloved Teddy" would have said the
simple ranchman farmer out on his fields. toll
ing in the bright sunlight at useful work. cheered
by the wholesome faces of wife and children. had
more of the essentials of happiness and usefulness
than the jaded city dweller surrounded by luxur-
les and entertainment.
Today we have class of ''intelectuas" who
seem to despse what is simple. They regard the
ordinary run of people as stupid eodhoppers. They
constantly deriding the people of small cities
and towns and they feel that such ones are stfled
in a coarse materialism.
They further seem to think sophistication is
the true ideal. and that only by knowledge of
the evil of the world can people attain higher cul-
ture.
People have made progress in this change
of ideals. Fortunately there are millions who still
prefer simplicity much as they can get in
these rapid times. to sophisticaton. They believe
that satisfaction is found in honest work and
healthy emulation, in family joys and wholesome
pleasures. and vigorous activity in the open air.
The masses who believe in this philosophy stall
producing better communities, while the sophisti-
Gated people are airing their superior criticism.
but not usually doing much that is constructive.
