MEMBER |LLINOIS PRESS ASS80CIATION Entered at the Post Office at Libertyvilie, Illinois as Second Class Matter One of the big merchandising institutions that is winning a place in America even in this day of great business houses is Lauerman Brothers Company, with headquarters in Marinette, Wisconsin, and some 18 or 20 large stores in oth:qcitics of the mid--west. > :) But though these brothers had little money, they did possess something of a greater value than Mpital. They had ideas, com-- mon sense, and the capacity to go to the very root of any prob-- lem. They believed in carrying good Merchandise at reasonable prices, and also in telling the public about the goods on their shelves. . This great store is less than forty years old., It came intc existence with a small stock of merchandise------so small in fact that it inventorie at something like $800----in a small community, with no more promise than the average small merchant had at that time As the years passed the store grew. First it took its place among the finer business institutions in its home city. Then it became famous throughout its entire district. Later it acquired a national reputation, and was frequently spoken of as the largest small city store in America. The gross volume of Business per year reaches the astounding figure of $4,000,000. The store drew trade from 100 to 150 miles. ' Then the business began to expand to other dities. Other stores were taken over by the Lauerman Brothers Company, until now they have become a nationally known instituttdf" What is the secret of this phenomenal success ? ~@"Good mer-- chandising and advertising," answers F. J. Lauerman, president of the organization. "We are great believers in the valtie of print-- er's ink," he says, "and we have never lost faith in theindirect returns, the results that cannot be traced, from alb of our 4dver-- tising and sales promotion efforts." In the early days of that institution, no doubt, many adver tisements were published in the newspapers that apparently brought unsatisfactory returns. Suppose Mr. Lauerman had said Most of us secretly know that our wages too low and everything we buy is too high. "Advertising doen't pay. We've tried it and we know... Would his store have become "The Largest Small City Store in America ?" Answer that question for yourself. What are Libertyville's greatest resources ? You may search the list of our agricultural or industrial assets, but you will fail to find the answer to the above question. The greatest of all of our resources is the spirit of our citi-- zens----their will to make the community something above the av-- erage. Most fine towns and cities develop and 'grow where the will of their citizens would have them grow. , Natural resources, of course, cut an important figure. No amount of enthusiasm for the community will turn a small town into a great metropolis. But a certain determination on the part of the people of the community to make it a better place in which to live will have its effect. Let the skeptic who questions this visit many towns and cities, study them thoughtfully, and note how great a part the spirit of the town's citizens determine its industrial! development. _ _ some men gtve much t! these days.
