be "jovial"? Will you be as happy as you are 1
now ... enjoying the fruits of your labor and thrift 1
in earlier years?
Wise spending, sane saving, a definite

—Newspaper
Advertising—
THIS IS WORTH READING
Display advertising; in which the articles adver
tised are fully described has proved to be the most ef
fective by far. Tests on advertising were made some
time ago by the Chicago Tribune. Advertisements in
which the descriptions of various articles were limited
to one or two lines Were run along with others carrying
five lines of descriptive matter. The latter proved to
i . have double the response.
Last Spring an Eastern concern made a complete
canvass of its trade territory to ascertain the type of ad
vertising with most appeal. Ninety per cent of those
questioned were found to favor full description of mer
chandise together with prices. A few favored price
alone and a smaller number favored the general pres
tige-building type. A merchant who is familiar with
his own merchandise is apt to think because he knows
every detail of the merchandise that every one else
does. That is not true. People like to know just what
they are going to buy; they like to have it described in
detail, even to size and dimensions.
Mail order houses discovered this early in the
game, and they have gone so far as to illustrate practi
cally every item of merchandise, some in colors, and
described to the smallest detail. They sell entirely ~
through the printed word. What an advantage the lo
cal merchant has over the mail order catalog, if he
would advertise along similar lines. •
Catalogs are printed twice a year, while your
county newspaper is printed twice a week. The mer
chant has the advantage of presenting seasonable ad
vertising—he has the advantage of personal contact.
The story of his goods is fresh each issue and the story
is news. He has the advantage of the newcomers in the
trade territory and the younger people who marry,
who, before, had no thought of where to buy. The field
is always widening for the local merchant if he has the
vision to go out and fight for the business.
To fight for business, all that is necessary is proper
advertising, which will sell the people on his store. The
merchant who advertises for business with regularity,
rain or shine, good roads or bad, is the merchant who
is making advertising successful for him. The fact that
people know where his store is means little. People
like to know just what this merchant is doing, what new
merchandise he has and why they should buy it. This
is a day of competition and advertising leads the way.
