Most people, as a matter of fact, can't get along without it . . . and practically everybody reads a news- paper every day, not only for the g ne ws it brings, but for the interfne- ' tation it presents, the pictures it prints, the entertainment it pro vides, die advice it offers. Small wonder that the newspaper should be the forceful, profitable advertising medium that it is. Small wonder, too, that today, when the news plays so important a part in people's lives, the newspaper is an even more vital and profitable ad vertising medium than ever before. t X: v iv THE BUREAU OF ADVERTISING AMERICAN NEWSPAPER PUBLISHERS ASSOCIA TION OF WHICH THE MAIL TRIBUNE IS A MEMBER 0 F SOME I H !
