There are several grocery stores in our town
and one of them has difficulty in meeting its ex­
penses. It is only a question of time until it
will cease to exist.
Just two doors away, is another store which
does a very profitable business. When talking
with the proprietor of this store, he said: “The
weakest argument I know is for some merchant
to tell the people that he doesn’t advertise be­
cause it costs him too much money. I spend
|180 a year in advertising. But I don’t figure
that it comes out of my cash drawer. I think
it is paid by the competitors who do not adver­
tise. I’m getting new customers right along
through my advertising, and some of them are
coming to me from stores within a block of here
that brag about the fact that they don’t need
to advertise because everybody knows them.
