"How advertising has
increased my happiness"
Here IS your opportunity to turn a personal experi
ence into money, simply by writing a letter. This prize
contest is sponsored by Foster and Kleiser Company, out
door advertising, and a group of the leading newspapers
of the Pacific Coast.
The purpose of the contest is to secure first-hand infor
mation,written out of personal experience, as to the contri
bution which advertising is making to our everyday lives.
Nearly everyone is influenced, consciously or otherwise,
by advertising. The sponsors of this contest believe that
your letter on how advertising has increased happiness will
be a valuable contribution to advertiser i'and business men.
To win one of these
generous prizes . . .
You have only to describe a way in which advertising has
come into your life and changed it.
Perhaps you have learned through advertising to aban
don a tiresome and difficult method in your housework,
and so have increased your leisure, and your freedom to
follow your own pursuits and pleasures.
Perhaps you have substituted the vacuum cleaner for the
broom, and made yourself happy with long hours of open
air and sunshine which had formerly been spent in monot
onous, wearisome work.
Or you may have become acquainted, through advertis
ing, with ranges, refrigerators and other appliances which
lighten labor and safeguard the health of your family.
It is possible that through advertising you have learned
of a book or a play or a bit of music that has opened to you
new avenues of enjoyment and improvement.
Or a travel advertisement may have set your wandering
foot on paths of delight that lead nowhere every where.
Or you may have learned of a new food, or soap, or
tooth paste which has given you pleasure and satisfaction.
Or advertising may have helped you in
the skillful management of your house
hold budget
Write about your
experience . . .
These are but a few of the many kinds of
experiences which you may have had with
advertising. There is no limitation upon
the experience of which you may write
we are interested in any kind of an experi
ence providing that it was brought to you
by advertising of some form.
Although the sponsors of this contest
are engaged in outdoor advertising and
newspaper advertising, a most important
rule of the contest is that you must not
mention the name of the publication or the
advertising medium where you saw the adver
tisement which influenced 'your life. The judges
are not interested in knowing whether the
advertisement appeared outdoors or in a

newspaper or a magazine or if you received it through the
mail, or over the air.
Their only interest is: A clear description of an experi
ence you have had through advertising of any kind without
any mention of what kind of advertising it was. They are
interested in the experience and not in the advertisement.
It is only necessary . , .
To relate the effect that the advertisement had upon you
how it sent you off to buy the article or service that you
saw advertised, and the effect of that purchase upon the
comfort and pleasure of your everyday life.
To do this it is not necessary to be a trained writer. A
simple story of an evenr, filled with deep, personal, human
interest is of greater value than a more pretentious literary
effort with less meaning.
