truth about ADVERTISING
WHAT IS ADVERTISING eENIUs7
BY CHARLES B. ROTH

ing just a few dollars in his local
newspaper, was able to top all the
results of these high-salaried adver-
Using men.
All he did was to know the de-
sires of his customers, and sit down
and tell them what he had in a SIM
pie, an understandable, a convinc-
ing, conversational way. Here is his
advertisement:
SATURDAY SPECIAL
this coupon and cents
VIII buy Bigger and Better
Double Dip
ICE CREAM SODA
Clip this Coupon and bring it with
five cents to the
PARK VIEW DRUG STORE
This is perfect advertisement. It
offers wanted service. It offers
value. 1t inspires confidence. It is
something people In his neighbor-
hood wanted to read.
1t didn't take a genius to write it,
but the whole genius of advertising
is behind it.
Every day advertisers are pub
fishing similar announcements In the
newspapers. These announcements
are as much in what is called the
public interest as the results of sci
entific research or study-because
they bring the public something it
wants to make life better or more
interesting or, in the case of Park
View Drug, little more enjoyable.

The story to date of the findings OF
the special committee that is investi-
eating the Benson administration is
the story of handful of political
leaders who sold their party down the
river, as well as the people of the
State of Minnesota. 1t is the story of
selfish men who sacrificed honor of
their party as well as the honor of
their positions not the opportunity to
serve the people, but the opportunity
to profit personally at the expense of
the people and at the expense of the
good name of the state Had these
men not been routed from office last
November, there is no telling to what
ignominious depths of debt and dis
honor they might have plunged the
County Herald.

IN THE early days of advertising
there were men who posed in the
role of genius. They shrouded ad-
vertising with mystery. To portray
their part they let their hair grow,
wore flowing bow ties, affected a
far-away look and muttered mys-
terious formulate.
Some persons still believe that the
ability to advertise a business sue
cessfully is like the ability to write
poetry-an inborn gift.
1t isn't at all The closer adj
vertising comes to answering some
of the needs in the lives of common,
ordinary people the more nearly it
comes to success.
The only genius needed in adver-
Using is the everyday genius of tell
