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!
