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 ail adver- tisers to keep in mind. These are not expert items, but are sim- plet 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 hoyv to get there. Tell thein. You cannot make (things too plain.- 2. lain. 2. Advertising sinould 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 the pub- lic do business with yon unless they know about you? .3, ' It should be REGULAR AND CONSTANT. People trails 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- allyturn when they want to see where to buy, whether bonds or tbleane, i 5. Advertising should be ATTRACTIVE, The most attractive thing you can put in is something that appeals to the' self-interest of the reader. Funny or startling matter, that has nothing to do with your business, is not good advertising. ' No man can be funny enisp r Ai Londesboro Miss Anne Abrey is spending a week with her sister, Mrs. (Dr.) Wil- son of Toronto. Mr. Thos, Fairservice and family motored to London Fair last week.

Public school tax as per requisition by the trustees. Ac- coding to this scale Stanley's rate Ie 12.7-10 while Goderich township's rate it 14 mills, both evthout the Pub, lis school tax. every day. By and by your antics become tiresome. If you can showwoman a wo prep where she can save 10 cents, or where she 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. 0. 1.3E 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 waren as you can. Don't be too cold end precise. 8. Tell the TRUTII. When customers come to your store, do a little more for them than ,you said you would in your announce -e merit. 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 Go'o.. ernments, ought to. keep regularly in touch with the people by ad- vertising.
