NAMES You meet Mr. r-taward and Mr. Walters in a gather ing. Their names are to you but two of many you hear. A few days later you meet Mr. Howard again. And again. He becomes a friend, perhaps an intimate in your social as well as business life. Mr. Howard's name grows to mean a lot to you. Mr. Walters is rarely seen again and soon forgotten In this newspaper are other names names of ad vertised products. Day after day you see them. They are like old friends to be trusted. Their names mean economy, full value and integrity. The unadyertised products perhaps you see' one in a store or in a friend's home. Soon the name is for gottena stranger about whom you know little. Fill your medicine closet, your pantry, your ward robe with products whose names are guarantees of their integrity advertised products. Like intimate friends you know what they are and will do. the advertisements and know the names that are worth knowing in the market place FROM FIELD TRIP Nelson V.
