By Herbert Kaufman - Once upon a time there was a fool hen who sat on a china doorknob for threo weeks expecting to get a fam ily. Tho only thing sho did get was experience. Tho advertising field Is full of "china doorknob propositions". ex amples of merchants who expect good newspapers to hatch money out of bad egg business, or who put sound nest eggs under the wrong "advertising hen." There are threo principles to fol low in an advertising campaign: First of all, find a business that will stand advertising; secondly, And tho newspaper that will make tho adver tising pay; thirdly, give tho nows paper time to pay. You can't start in to breed dollars in less time than It takes to hatch them any moro than you can pull a hen off the nest before sho has had a chance to Incubate. In both cases you simply waste what has been invested. If you stop too soon you will get a rotten egg Instead of a chicken. Advertise somothlng out of which you may reasonably expect returns, and when you have found what to advertise, tako caro that you placo your copy in a newspaper that can turn tho trick. Don't delude your self with a china doorknob, and don't confuse a "rooster nowspaper," which spends its tlmo cock-a-lorum-Ing, for a "bon newspaper'.' that is too busy hatching out dollars to strut about crowing.
