Electric Service Co. Service Our Middle Name Phone Main 124 1412 Adams Do You Buy Advertised Goods? Of course you do; everybody does. Just run over in your mind the various articles that you have pur chased in the last week or the last month. How about foods? Your breakfast fruits, cereals and bacon are all advertised. Probably that is how you first came to know of them through advertising. Probably the shoes you are wearing, or the dress or suit you have on are equally well-known advertised makes, and you are proud of them. ' In the home. On the floor are rugs and linoleum the better wearing kinds are extensively advertised. What about the kitchen? Aluminum ware, gas ranges, hot water heaters, dish and clothes washers cooking utensils of all kinds practically everything you use is advertised. You buy advertised products because you have confidence in them. You know that a manufacturer cannot afford to advertise shoddy or unworthy merchandise. Advertising is one form of insurance. It gives you a feeling of perfect confidence and safety when you ask for an advertised brand, for you know. that you will get the quality and service you expect. The name is the guarantee. The more you read advertising the more you will know about human progress. You will become well posted in almost every line of human endeavor and a canny judge of values. Reading advertisements is a fine habit. Cultivate it. Read the advertisements and buy advertised goods. They are the safest investment. mm m ' No Kuiuln Hu iIihtm
