The better the store the better the advertising pays. Your own observations in the store-world will confirm .. this truth. Publicity is bad only for a bad propositions It is just v as surely good for a good one. ' What is a "good store!" One that really serves the, ' public, protecting its patrons' as to values, not merely as to prices. There are many stores in this city answering to .that definition-completely.' In every city there are always some stores that do not. , An important phase of a good store's service to its patrons is its newspaper advertising. This should be com: plete, frank, informing. It should tell the store news as" fully as good newspaper tells the news of tiie day. Perhaps the best' possible new policy for the; good, stores of this city to, adopt would be that of doubling the ' advestising space that they use thus igiyihg them " elbow , -room;" giving them bigger opportunities for telling their1 , patrons, in detail, about, every selling event,' about every" .bargain offering, about every dollar's worth - of, new etoeks. Of course, even half enbugk, advertising pay the . really' good store; but Adequate advertising W9uld pay" much better. .. .. 1 . , : Effective Nov. 19. 1918. gon and California, which were to have ; The California and - Oregon neeo uiBinnnuea an orainea on me ; UC-aSt rCailrOaa UOmpanV plea that they were needed for farming ! . . - .w . . . - . . . .
