HOUSEHOLD ~scRAPBooK
Care of Umbrella
by Roberta Lee

A wet umbrella should be closed
and stood with the handle down.
This prevents rusting of the point
where the ribs join, and also pre-
vents stretching of the cloth.
To test Eggs
Place an egg in a pan of water. If
fresh, it will lie on its side. If a
few days old it will tilt upwards.
If stale, it will stand on end. If
very old, it will float.
A Convenient High Chair
If four rubber-tipped door stops
are screwed into the legs Of an
ordinary chair, it makes an ideal
high chair for kitchen work, or
for a small child.

Pres. Oliver Void urged tn

tional fund and thus place tn.
Laurel club on the 100 per cen
list in the 18th district.
p. A. Johnston, February pro
gram committeeman, introduced
both Laird and Hilleboe.
The latter said that good ad
vertising and good selling ar,
synonymous. Good advertising
supplies accurate information
good selling supplies wanted
goods and services. Throughout
his discourse he stressed accu.
rate whole-truth representation OF
the wares offered. A buyer once
deceived is not likely to return
From the angle of gain alone,
truth pays dividends to both
those who sell and those who
buy.
Careful, well-planned advertis-
ing, with enough merchandise in
stock to satisfy the created de-
mand, is becoming more impor-
tant as time passes and the mar
ket of shortages fades, the speak
er said. The scene changes and
the program of advertising, to be
successful, must be geared to the
new circumstances.
In connection with truth in adj
vertising, Hilleboe said that in
New York City there is a board
which serve the best interests
of ethical sellers and the buying
by reviewing all advertis-
ing before it is published. The
vast majority of advertisers,
either in the metropolis or the
.hinterland, are honest, ethical
and therefore truthful; the diff
is with the snipers.
There are several sins, one of
which is ommission-the not tell
ing enough about the goods or
services. Another is exaggera-
ton. A survey revealed that the
majority of people believe a good
part of the advertising they see
and hear is unnecessarily exag-
gerated, though the basis of the
exaggeration may be merely to
gain attention. The speaker cit
ID some instances.
He also scored haphazard adj
,ertising-the poor or no-prep-
lration of copy, and gave illus
rations.
The technique of designing and
writing appealing advertising,
PARTICULARLY for women, was
mentioned. But an ap-
'ealing ad, if it does not stick
o the truth, is money wasted.
Differentiated we're two class
of buyers-those who want
nd those who need-and the adj
ertising sellers relation to them.
