FIRST NATIONAL BANK Look "Dull Sharp On " Days OUR ADVERTISING MANAGER SENDS A LITTLE SHOPPING-TIP TO GENTLE READERS . You have noticed that on some days there is more advertising in your newspaper than on other days. Friday, for instance, we carry many messages to help you with your over-Sunday shopping. Certain department stores have their favorite days for advertising certain merchandise. But here's the tip on days when the paper seems "thin nest," you sometimes discover the biggest bargains. It stands to reason that some advertisers prefer to run their announce ments on days when the advertising columns are less crowded. And thus by looking sharp on the seemingly dull days you en counter surprises! In fact, we don't think there's ever a time when one can draw an honest yawn and say "nothing in the paper today." When it comes to Advertising-News, there's nothing in the paper that one can afford to miss!
