This Jewel
Is Not For Sale!
Good name in man or woman, Mr. Shakespeare's Iago
said, is the immediate jewel of their souls.
Back of every business success, back of the smallest
product that contributes to success, is an enduring good
name. This is a jewel that is never for sale.
Advertising cannot make a bad name good. Nor
should it try! But advertising can carry a good name to
a rich and just reward. In fact, advertising is the voice
of the good name. Through advertising, the good name
is able to make the promises that men live by.
This newspaper is proud of the good names in its
advertising columns. You will find nothing but good
names here.
