EVER NOTICE Pius?
Did you ever pause in a post oilice
long enough to take a squint at the
floor shortly after' a number of peo-
ple have received their mail? If you
have you were probably struck by
the - number of circular and form
letters and hand bills that littered
it up?. In fact, you doubtless were
struck vvith the fact that many of
them had been thrown in the basket:
as soon as they •were removed from
the envelope, _the recipient never
even taking; the trouble to give them
a second •glance. 'But dill you also
notice that: you don't see anyone
throwing the newspapers and espec-
ially the home town newspapers in.
the waste basket or on the floor?
Did: you notice that newspapers are
always carried away instead of toss-
ed away?•Well, right there is a
mighty good argument in. favor of
advertising in the newspaper. • The
circular letter—a costly form of ad-
vertising --goes
into the waste bas-
ket. The home town paper goes in-
to the. borne. Remember this and
spend your advertising money ac-
cordingly.
