Box Number Replies Require A Letter Citizens News is , f .: and Winner I. Canadian r' 'Teeklf y,' Papers Competition From time to time we carry ad- vertisements asking for replies to "Box So -and -So." This means that •replies must be by letter addressed to the specified box care of the Citizens News. We try to discourage this type of advertisement, but there are oc- cessions when the advertiser wishes it this way, so he can make the contacts from the prospects re- ceived. We discouraged it for one rea- son only — because so many peo- ple ask us ."who wants what." We are not at liberty ,to say so, and it puts on the spot when we have to decline to answer what seems to be a sin>,pie question. The fact is the advertiser wishes replies by letter, and that is the way it must be. 0 e`:.
