Mato* News - Word THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 920,,. _BD Dr. Frank Crane Advertising is Simply Making Your Business Known. It is Perfectly Consistent With Anyone's. Dignity or Modesty. Is is not necessarily boasting or self=pushing', In fact, a brag- ging advertisement defeats its purpose; it repels and does not at- tract. ; There are several points that it might be well for all adver- tisers to keep in mind. These axe not expert items, but are sim- ply common sense applied to publicity. 1. All advertising • should be CLEAR. It ought to state just what your business is and where it is, giving your precise ad- dress. Don't assume that every one knows where the "Jones Dry Goods Store" is, nor how to get there, Tell them, You cannot make tthings too plain, 2. Advertising should be reckoned as a PART OF YOUR BUSI- INESS. It is as necessary as the sign over your: door. It is not an occasional or outside matter; it is essential. How can tile pub- lic do business with you unless they know about you? 3. It should be REGULAR AND CONSTANT. People trade with the firm whose name is familiar to thein. The newspaper ought to be your partner, If you are in business permanently let your advertising be permanent. 4, The newspaper going daily into the hands of the people, is the BEST MEDIUM for advertising It's where he public natur- ally turn when they want to see where to buy, whether bonds or ;b)eang.. .n 5. Advertising should be ATTRACTIVE. The most attraptive thing you can put in is something that appeals •to the self-interest of the reader. Funny or startling natter, that has nothing to do with your business, is not good advertising. No man can be funny TeXe r Nom S show aawora n whereysheucannsaveb101cents,eorlmwhere she can can • buy stuffs that last longer and wear better. it is much more to your advantage than to crack jokes, or so begin your advertisement with a picture of a wild Bolshevik and wind up with announcing your superior stocks. What you want is to tell folk that they can get the most for their money at your place; that is the most at- tractive fact you can publish. 6. BE BRIEF. Don't try to crowd all the reading natter pos- sible into the space you pay for, so as to get your money's worth. Use readable type and don't say too much, 7. BE HUMAN. Make your advertisements as live and wash as you can. Don't bo too cold and precise. 8. Tell the TRUTH. When customers conte %to your store, do a little more for them than you said you would in your announce- ment. The prosperity of, the liar is brief, , 9. It is the DUTY of all HONEST concerns to advertise. That is the best way to crowd out the fakers. It enables newspapers to reject suspicious and questionable ad- vertisements. 10. Advertising is necessary to ALL FORMS of business which appeals to the public. Banks, telephone companies, gas and other public utility concerns, besides city, provincial .and national Gov- ernments, ought to keep regularly in touch with the people by ad- vertising, per is the treet . �t s t f C*& C n icy 4" 4 e* t t eo fStre MUST LEARN TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY • Until we are willing to take our share of the worlds burden, we should be very thankful that other powers are willing to do so. There were some of our people who were disposed to criticize Great Britian for with drawing her troops from Mesopotamia thus exposing the Arm- enians to Turkish barbarity yet the British troops had been fighting for almost 6 years. Though we critic- ized, we were unwilling to do any- thing ourselves, it was the same with enforcing the provisions of the treaty. No sooner was the Armistice signed than all clamoured for the im- mediate return of our soldiers from France. Again the whole burden of policing the Rhine was left to the British and French, we have sought all the benefits of the peace without assuming any of the responsibilities Unit it imposed.—Indianapolis News, BIG SPECIAL ATTRACTION FOR GODERICH EXHIBITION The directors of the Goderich In- dustr:al Exhibition have been able to secure the Brown t'i Dyer Shows as the big attraction at the exhibi- tion to be held text week, Sept. 8, 9, and 10. The Brown di Dyer show are well .known to the people of Ontario and conte with unusually high recommendation fov..krhe qual- ity and cleanliness of their attrac- tions. No questionable features are allowed, and the whole family may visit the show without seeing any- thing that would in the least offend. The big feature attraction is Da-- kota Max big wild -west exhibition. This is the sante show that was the feature at the Toronto exhibi- tion in 1919 and was especially ap- preciated- by the Prince Of Wales. There are many exciting moments• while the various rider's, stale and female, do broncho busting, fancy riding, 'rope spinning, hassooing and other remarkable feats of the wes- tern plainsmen, Another big sensation is the mo- tordrome, where Margaret East, "the mile a minute girl" fl ittswi with death while whirling around the big saucer track, Other riders also give wonderful exhibitions of nerve and dating. The bili circus side show is full of interesting exhibitions, such as glass blowers, knife throwing, and •many outer novelties of a distinct and unique character. The laarr Sisters, two human be- :nr•q weighing nearly one thousand pounds of flesh, will be seen in a boxing contest, Other shows . will include "tire , vampire"" 1:I - rt Lar:r the rami inon)cey iAtrotie Show" " ,Crea teen» the show beautiful The rules will include the big sensation "the 'whip." This is the rule that is causing more sensation in the amusement world than any- thing that has been introduced in years and will be the first one ever shown in Goderich. Other rides that will also be on hand will be a big Eli Ferris Wheel and a Giant Seaplane swing. Mr• and Mrs. Edwards and some friends of Goderieh experienced -an automobile spill on Sunday morning last. on the second of Stephen, just west of Exeter. A steering rod broke and the front wheels doubling up, the car cause to a sudden scop. The lad- ies were throyn out on the ground but only light bruises were sustained. Luckily they were running slowly at the time , The car was left at Ex- eter for repairs and Mr. Edwards and party were taken back to God, erich, Though the Canadian National Ex- hibition only dates back to 1870, the first exhibition from which the Can- adian National Exhibition developed ' was established in Toronto in 1846. Previous to 1885 ales ,and beers were sold an the Canadian National Exhibition Grounds. The custom was abolished at an annual loss in booth rentals of $2,000, quite a big sum in tho earlyta s of the Big Fair to pay for a principle. nit inn FOR SALE McLaughlin Light Six H. R.
