RED CROSS CHAPTER
NEEDS OFFICE SPACE

The local Red Cross chapter to-
day is appealing for a room or Of
flee space in some building in
which to continue civilian and
service relief needs in Key West
Due to the needs of recreational
facilities for service men, the
Knights of Columbus will again
operate a unit in this city, and the
hut" which during World War
First DAYS was so popular with
civilians and service men, will be
placed in operation. AS it is now
necessary that the Knights of
Columbus occupy the entire build
ing, the Red Cross which occupied
the building for the past decade is
seeking new quarters. If any
person has a room which they are
willing to let the Red Cross use
during this emergency. or space
in a building in which Red Cross
activities may continue, they are
asked to call r. F. SpottSwood,
chapter chairman, or Mrs. Grace
Phillips, executive secretary.

NEWSPAPER SPACE
HAS MUCH VALUE
STUDY OF MORE EFFECTIVE
USES HAS JUST BEEN
COMPLETED

A consumer buying increase o
1877 per cent, secured in test eitie
through application to news
papers of the radio technique o
sustained continuity and repeti
ton, is the basis for an announce
ment of the largest Fall news
paper schedule in the history o
the H. J. Heinz Company, accord
ing to Franklin Bell, advertising
manager.
A fifteen-month study of more
effective uses of newspaper space
has just been completed by the
Heinz advertising agency, Maxon
Inc, Detroit.
Test campaigns were conducted
in 81 newspapers from coast-to-
coast in cities representative OF
each important population group
Each newspaper received mini
mum schedule of 3 to advertise
ments per week for 13 consecutive
weeks.
The extent of consumer buying,
and consumer 'aWareneSS" of the
varieties to be advertised, prior to
release of the advertising was de-
terrnined by independent research
organizations. These findings
were later compared with iden-
teal consumer surveys following
completion of the 13-week test
campaigns.
A total of 3458 consumer inter-
views were completed before the
tests, and 3505 after the tests. On
the before surveys, 1921 house
wives were familiar with the
Heinz Varieties to be advertised
and 713 were already regularly
buying these varieties. On the
after surveys, 1921 were familiar
with the advertised items and 952
were buying them. These COM
parsons show an awareness in
crease of 1877 per cent, and buy
ing increase of 1877 per cent.
Commenting upon the Maxon,
Inc. study, Mr.. Bell stated:
1T is our opinion that news
papers today are in the strongest
position with the reading public
they have enjoyed for 20 years;
that their fundamental advan-
tages of selectivity and flexibility
are particularly important in to-
days merchandising; and that
properly used with adequate con-
tinuity, they should be primary in
a thoroughly rounded national adj
vertising program"

Spring, too, in the glade ham,

richer or fresher green's, with
bronze new leaves of red naples
among them. The new cypress
foliage was like bird feathers;
the blooms on the airplantS were
like so many thousands of red
birds. There were a few white
