Are You Going to Get The Best Results Out Of Your 1929 Advertising ?

You will if you take the advice of Sir C. Highạm!

Sir Charles Higham, speaking on "Scientific, Distribution" at Anderton Hotel, Fleet-strect, said that there was no advertising mediuma 'so useful as the Press, and none that was responded to with much speed and protit. Newn paner advertising paid better to-day than it ever did. Most of the goods now consumed by the public were sold under a branded naine, and the most economical method of distributing these was by Press advertising, properly done, The dealer would always stock An article which Wis nationally advertised in the daily Press, because he was convinced, first, that the article must be good or it would not be advertised at all, and, secondly, that the public would respond to it because they knew that they were getting good value for their money, The bust- ness of the newspaper was to in- form, not reform. For the re- former, the advertisement columns of the dally Press were puchas- able, and is the columns he could atste his case. The Government had found this method, extremely valuable in increasing the sales of British goods through the Empire Marketing Board, and the recently Inaugurated newspaper campaign to increase the sale of British cars was already having its effect. These were two striking instances of the value of the Press as an advertising medium to increase the sale of commodities in general."

'THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH ” is the best Evening Newspaper Medium in the Colony.
