It takes everybody from big VP's with heavy ad budgets to housewives with rooms to rent. It takes chain-store executives and neighborhood merchants. It takes local business people those who spend only their own money for ads, and those who also spend big money contributed by manufacturers. But moat of all It takes an advertising medium that can do the job-a complete job: NEWSPAPERS. Only newspaper can give you full value for your ad vertising' dollar because only newspapers reach everybody who can possibly buy. If you're a retailer or wholesaler, demand news- . paper advertising before you place an order. 7 you're a salesman or district manager, ask your management for newspaper advertising to move out the products you sell. And you're a manufacturer, remember this: In 1951 One-Third Of All The Advertising Dollars In The Nation Were Entrusted to Newspapers.
