NIGHT: It's so many things that
Amt Haggar's Chillun don't know
muffin about, even the wisest
'mongst EN- until from time to
time we figured it'd be a good idea
to say something bout the Advo-
cate and the subject of ADVER-
Using and how it goes with the
newspaper and how the newspaper
can't go without advertising =.
ADVERTISING being one of the
things that Gus in Business" don't
know muffin about, and cares less
and cause it cost something
"us in Business" looks lack as is
determined to not let us self learn
muffin bout advertising, which is
the chief form of publicity in bust
ness promotion, according to the
American system Of business :.
What made me write this was that
while / was settin down over my
fish and beer, l thought about the
Brother O-the- Blood, who dropped
by for a 81 half-page ad "jest to
hep me-" and the good Sister-O-
the Blood who sent in long story
on the "Nuff-and-do-Well" Sing
ers, to be presented at the local
church for one dollar a ticket,
which she brightly informed us
that we should print in the paper
cause "we buys paper ever week"
but when we went up to our
favorite chittlin stand we saw
where she had gone and had printed
some of them big cards and stuck
'em in the window 'nouncin the
coming of the "Nuff and do Well"
Singers, wild de price Of every
ticket. Well, jest to let you-alls
know, specially you-alls here in
the Capital City of the Old Mag
nolia, it takes advertising to run
the Jackson Advocate, and news
paper advertising, something you
alls don't seem to know, is the best
kinda advertising in the world, and
that includes the radio and tele-
vision, and when you-alls wanna
put them long say-sos in the jack
son Advocate for free when you
done gone and paid some body to
print some of them cards, which
is the worlds wurse kinda adver-
Using, / want you to remember
what I said here if you-alls bees
one who happens to read this :. :.
When we look in the window and
see your advertising on them cards,
or look out in the streets and see
them hand bills, don't bring us no
"news," cause from now on let it
be the "Sons and Daughters of l.
Will-Arise," the Royal Order of the
Brotherhood and Sisterhood Ode
Fraternity, the Heavenly Harmony
Music Makers, or the Loyal Grand
Daughters of big time Sassiety, or
the Elders and Deacons of the
Church of all the Chilluns of Hag-
gar, from now on put your
news on the same cards and hand
bills where you put your money.
SOMETHING DAT MADE ME
LAFF: The story they're telling
bout the fellow who got cut-up out
in front of one of the Mite spots
the other Saturday night who they
tuck to de hospital where the doc
tor sewed him up with one hun
dred stitches, and when the police
asked him who cut him he said, it
was my best friend -.
{. MAN IN BAD LUCK: Julius
Mitchell, the we'll known man about
Parish Street who operates the
popular Booker T. Grill, had just
bought brand new 1858 Mercury,
the same night out on one of the
roads slick with ice he wrapped it
around a telephone pole, FORUM
ately, the car was hurt worse than
he was -.
WHO'S SORRY NOW: From
what we can hear the City Judge
ordered a permanent put on Mas
sey Hawmin's place over on Camp
bell Street.
THAT OLE BIRD: That carries
in his bill that little old heart
warming and family : cementing
bundle, left one the other day at
| the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter j.
Dixon, on Pittsburgh Street. lisa
girl named Machelle, and every
body is well and happy.
WEEKLY QUOTATION: "No
Army can withstand the strength
