Advertising is the merchant’s lighthouse by which he attracts and leads the buying public. Competition is so prominent that a business must tell what it carries, in what it excels, and in what it specializes, etc., in order to keep pace with other concerns. * Advertising, if properly p'aced, is sure to bring results. The Emerald is the official campus daily. It reaches the students, faculty, and residents of the University district. Its rates are reasonable, its service is good, and its results are appreciable. * * * * i The Oregon Daily Emerald
