The merchant who says that every one knows his place ot business, and that he doesn't have to advertise, can be (ouud in Louisburg, and in every other community in this ccuntry This merchant also says that cus'o. meTs come to him when in need of Moods, so why should he waste his money in advertising? An answer to that question has been made by a newspaper whose advertising man no doubt stumbled into places of busi ness where the owner possessed that frame of mind. This newspaper answered the ques tion "Why Should I Advertise?" as follows: "Of course, the newspaper man might say in rebuttal, 'everyone in this community knows what^ happens here, so what's the use of reporting .the news; what's the use of printing v. newspaper?" "If the community can get along without a newspaper it ca nget along without a number ot other things. I The adults are educated and cSn teach the children, thus doing away with the need of schools. The parents, be ing religious, can train the younger ones in the creeds, thus'doing away .with ministers and churches.-People can loan their money to one another and thereby eliminate banks. They can swap their old clothes or leari* how to make home-spuns. thereby greatly reducing expenses and actu ally putting the clothing merchants out of business. "All trade is based upon a desire of/ goods. Necessity is, mostly, but an augmented desire. Advertising has the function ot reminding people ot t'eir requirements, but its greatest function?a prime factor in all pro. press and prosperity?Is the creating J ci new desires; thereby stimulating tiade and production and making for the greatest possible degree of em ployment.
