ARABS LOVE
BARGAINING
ELOQUENCE is the accomplishment on which Arabs most
pride themselves. They are continually hurling rhetoric,
proverbs, poetical quotations at each other. Of course,
there nre many opportunities for speechmaking, but they, enjoy
it most while engaged in buying and selling.
No matter how simple and staple the article mny be, fifteen
minutes is the least that can be taken over a transaction. And
then it has been greatly hurried!
Just imagine if we had to bargain for fifteen minutes over
everything we bought. Yet not so very long ago, every pur
chase was a matter of bargaining. It is thanks to advertising
that it is no longer so today.
We sometimes forget how important advertising is. We do
not realize all it is doing for us. Yet, if it had achieved nothing
more than to do away with bargaining, it would be a boon to
mankind. But it doe3 more. It puts purchasing on a business
basis. It protects you against fraud and inferiority. You can
plan your shopping according to your pocketbook, and not
according to the patience and bargaining ability of everyone
you will have to face. When you think it over you must real
ize that it pays to read the advertisements.
THOSE WHO READ WISELY READ ADVERTISING.
