This is an advertising para phrase on that old railroad sign: Stop-Look-Listen. The railroad sign stands for "safety first" So floes the paraphrase safety first in spending your hard earned money. STOP when you pick up your newspaper - today for example and LOOK through the advertising pages. THINK. Do they offer something better than you are accustomed to use? Do they )ff er lower prices? Do they tell you of advan tages you are not enjoying? Think! Investigate! Reason it out for yourself. But use the advertising for the preliminary guide. The Argus.
