FEW months ago, according to that beguiling writer, Bruce arton, a large factory caught fire. It burned to the ground. Sirens shrieked. Crowds milled. Firemen fought the flames. Newspaper reporters scurried here and there after stories. Consternation reigned. Amid all this confusion the most serene man in sight was the president of the factory, Z' he who should have been the most excited. Alighting from his car, he strolled over to where that which he had spent years in building was becoming a total loss. He was calm, at ease, undisturbed. A newspaper man spied him, asked Charles Roth him why he was no more concerned. He explained that the loss was fully covered by insurance and that, besides, the most valuable asset of the business hadn't even been touched by the fire. "To what asset do you refer*JHjcL Burlingame?" "Why, to our good will. We can build a new factory--now we'll have to. We can buy new machinery-- better machinery than was in the old plant. As long' as the good will of a business is intact, nothing else matters," he concluded. He was right. The most important thing a business man has is the good will of his customers. Every business which has that is successful; every business which does not have it fails. Good will is not a mysterious quality like genius. It is a simple, commonsense matter depending upon doing simple, commonsense things. The first of these consists of giving good value and service, that the business may win and hold friends. The second consists of making the fact that the business is the kind which wins and holds friends known to its customers, by telling them of its ideals and its services and its merchandise. This telling process is called advertising. Whenever a manufacturer or a merchant advertises in the newspaper he informs you that he is the kind of business man whom it would pay yon to patronize. He makes public the fact that he wants good will and that he realizes the only way he can keep it is by living up to his promises. You as a customer get more for your money, when you patronize a concern with good will. Good will is proof that the concern has done something to warrant the friendship and confidence of its customers. You see, good will doesn't just happen. It is created--by good goods, by good service, by good advertising. • Charles B. 1Mb. CUSTOM HATCHING--We hatch any thing. Hen eggs, 2V6c each; Duck and Turkey eggs, 4%c each.
