MAR EFT

It's right here at your front door,
the Uncommon Market of million Mssiss ppi Negroes
With and dollars to spend.
Jackson advocate., 1963-09-28

Negroes - giving them the news and COM
ment and opinions which interpret the news
in the light Of the hopes and aspirations and
problems closest the minds and hearts Of the
new American Negro.
So much Of this news and comment IL
exclusive, appearing nowhere else, that the
local Negro newspaper fills vital need which
no general medium, and no other type Of
Negro medium, can satisfy.
That's why the new Negro city-dweller
gladly pays for his own newspaper. He's
like the American tourist in London who,
though surrounded by British papers, hunts
up the European edition Of an American
Newspaper to get his news.
Now it's easy for any business to reach
this Uncommon Market anywhere in the
state by advertising in the one Newspaper
that is read by Negroes throughout the
state.
After Fl years of publication We are con.
fident of our service and the returns to our
advertisers. We gladly assist In pubke-re-
lations, sales promotion, and merchandising
for our advertisers.
Jackson advocate., 1963-09-28

It's Uncommon because of its rapidly
growing purchasing power.
It's Uncommon because more than
third of our Negro families are now in the
top cities of the State.
Grocer Graphic says: ''The Negro mar
ket is the fastest-growing market In the
u. S. economy"
"A giant is awakening" says the New
York Herald Tribune" He is the Negro con-
sumer with more money to spend and more
sophisticated tastes to satisfy"
advertising to the Negro is probably
the area of biggest failing by marketers,"
says Sales Management. "While they may
be sold by product advertised in the regu-
lar media, chances are they could be easily
unsold by competitors ads in a special
Negro medium
Negro newspapers are the Especial Ne
gro medium" used by more national adver-
tisers than any other medium addressed to
Negroes.
They provide the uncommon way to
reach this Uncommon Market, because Ne
gro newspapers are written, edited and pub
lished by Negroes, for Negroes and about

The show doesn't always go on
This is what the Cantorians found
out this past week. After weeks
of intensive rehearsals in this
sweltering heat, the Minneapolis
Aquatennial Choral Contest was
cancelled for lack Of entries. Sew
eral Of the Choruses that usually
enter the Contest, especially school
groups, found this years date, July
20, inconvenient.
The cancellation of the Contest
was a big blow to the Cantorians
but, in its place, the group will
appear at the final Aqua event, an
Outdoor Concert at the Lake Har-
riet Pavilion. This concert will be-
gin at 8 pm. Sunday, July 18th.
Following this appearance, the
Cantorians will take a much-need-
ed vacation. Rehearsals will begin
again in the latter part Of Sep
TENDER. During the vacation per-
iod, director Kenneth L. Robinson
and several members Of the group
will be busy recruiting new men,
bers. The newest member Of the
Cantorians, Allen Smith of Mime
apolis, will be making his first ap-
pearence with the Cantorians when
they sing at Lake Harriet next
Sunday at 8 pm. We hope to see
many Of our friends there.
