Up out of the chasm below came
a slow-moving file of Indian pack

ground, nnd they stepped noiseless

Perhaps tou never think of it in this way but
there is a lot of news about friends of jours in this
paper right now. , Friends who serve you daily
who lighten -your work amuse your leisure con
tribute to your welfare and to the pleasure of your
life.
Advertised products familiar faces that you find
in your living-room, bedroom, bath, kitchen, garage
and yard. Long association with them has proved
their "friendship" to be valuable.
The advertisements are little intimate word pic
tures of these "commercial friends." Advertisements
tell you how they are made, what they arc doing,
and how and where to get them.
As a general rule, there is nothing familiar or
"friendly" about the appearance of an unadvev
tised product. You seldom sec it in the paper the
stores or even in homes.
Largely because the great buying public has
learned that the advertised product is the friend
to tic to.
