The Value Of Cnnsisency In Adver
tiling
Perhape the greatest value of
| advertising?the ability to keep a
name or trade mark before the pub;
lie until the buying public becomes
impressed with the fact that this
company or that is handling a certain
product, and. that Svben he wants,
collars, socks or churns, this: brand
or that- is better.
It is inveitable that a man or
woman should subconsciously become
familiar with certain products,!and in
time 6f need turn to them, when day
after day from every nehspaper
Bricked UP the name Itr YrmrlJ roo .-i
stares him or her in the face.
Consistency in advertising is. the
real secret. This is particularly
brought out in a pamplet by the distribution
department of the United
Statei Chamber of Commerce, on retail
advertising. Part? taken from
let may prove particularly valuable
the lptter accompanying the pampto
the Durham advertiser. They
follow; .
"Every merchant," the department
says 5n its foreword, "must make ^
himself knowp in order to^ conduct a
profitable business. This is done in
various ways, the greater part of
is described as 'stuMMty.'j aijd
of all these ways, advertising in the
most effective."
The purpose of" the pamhlet' i?
stated to be: "To enable the owner
of- the small stojre to make mostscconomicalt
apd effective ps?\ of ^he
ilioney he has available of has -avail- '
?bel for advertising."
'Although every repetition of an
advertisement, a circular or a letter
costs money," says . the .department,
"ocasional, hit-orjmisrt advertising
is usually a ldsS; xl'hercas
steady advertising of the right kind
is siire to.'-^eproduktfve. :j>Iev?rl<it|
the public forget you. Never give
event your old established customers
a chance to forget you, your store,
your goods
j'"Th<hw are two point* *o rpnjembef
iji thli connection: Your advertising
campaign, vThatever it ' consists of
should be planned as a whole.
"The other point is to , identify
yotir store thiough a border, a
trade mark, an illustration or a signature,
so that every advertisement,
every letter1, every - handbill, every
delivery wagon and every piece of
wrapping material will have some
easily reecgjifeed mark which will
remind the observer of all other
p.ds of your store. Tie your ads together.
Note how the large advertisers
use a trademark/ a phrase or
a picture.
"At certain seasons and for certain
offerings of merchandise,- adverlis-j
ng announcements should appeal
more Qrequ' ptly, t,h$n*' , uiual. A
grocer has' only sr fc' otc&b to sell'
strawberries,. so. he should advertise
them more frequently Alum" potatoes
which he can sell always.
'Druggists should press' their * Advantage
in selling remedies 'for trojds
during the winter months. During
an especially rainy Arpil* shoe dealers
should make frequent announce
mnts on rubbers.

Removed Billboards
From All Highways
Definite steps by civic organizations
to eliminate billboards from the highways
of the Pacific coqst are expected
to result from the impetus given the
movement by the Standard Oil company
of California, which has torn
down 1,200 of its roadway signs In
California, Oregon and Washing:erf.
The company removed Its highway
advertisements on the ground that
they detracted from the'beauty of the
roads, and ordered that hereafter such
signs should be confined to commercial
zones. . ? "There
was instant public*r*^P"ns.e
up and down the coast," said Kenneth
R. Kingsbury, president of the company.
"We have had editorials, letters
and telegrams by the* hundreds
indicating that a jkeon feeling exists
concerning the nfarrinf, of our 'great
highways by slgn%" ) 1
The Skyline boulevard, a great highway
being completed from San Fran

overlooking the Pacific o<??an, Is resorted
