It's the turnover that counts!
SIR CHARLES STARMER recently stated at the Publicity Club of Glasgow, that advertis- ing is the necessary fertiliser to make two blades of grass grow. where one grew before.
Sir Charles might have taken the argument to a more logical climax.
Advertising
represents the ground in which the merchant sows the seeds which are to yield
his profit in due season.
But the ground must be careful-
ly chosen if the best results are to be secured.
That is why the enterprising advertiser avoids stale ground.
It must be fresh.......fertile! The daily newspaper is ever fresh, ever of interest to the readers, and it naturally follows that the greater the number of daily readers, the greater the measure of success from each advertising message. .from each seed planted.
Every Advertisement in a Newspaper is a seed well planted:
