' _ B-tm-d-ein-ttsro-ttart-cattle tdh-trv-ttnoi-der/Ute-tlt."'?'. {and "Advertising pays!" . . That epigrammatie declaration is questioned by no one in- formed in the history of business and commercialedevelopment. It is s statement of fact, obvious and indisputable. Quality and service have built vast commercial and industrial institutions, but with their handmaid, advertising, greater in- stitutions have been built in far lets time and at far less cost. Advertising brings buyers and quality; service and advantage- ous price keep them. . " What these famous national advertisers have accomplished for the trade names of their products has been done by mer- chants for their business names. Advertising has made one store synonymous with clothing. another with furniture, an- other with meats and groceries, and another with music. In - business and community there is some far-seeing and enterprising manufacturer or merchant who raises his prod- uct and business name above the common level by making ad- vertising work for him. _. It is significant that the makers of those products whose copyrighted names are synonymous with the product itself have all been large-scale advertisers. Making a "better mouse- trap" wasn't enough. ' One can point to several automobile manufacturers who owe their exceptional usuccess not to building a better car. hat to using more and better advertising than their competitors." And several manufacturers have learned too late that success in this huge industry depends upon more than making a good car. EDITORIALLY SPEAKING In an editorial in Wednesday's issue, the Chicago Tribune bemoan: the fact that Lake county. together with DuPage, has been neglected in the matter of state road work. R. M. Lob- dell, the county superintendent of highways, relieves the anxiety of Lake county residents by stating that the recent appoitimr meat of state aid roads to which the Tribune refers involved only Cook county and that another road meeting is to be held soon. at which tithe the downstate counties will get their share. Needless to say, local motorists were considerably relieved at man's statement. for they are " anxious as any to see good road- in this locality. . LANDING IN his. BITCH Almost - day one reads in the newspapers of some sutosnobile driver who has landed his car and its occupants in the ditch. and quite frequently the car overturns. The reasons given for such mischsnces are skidding. slippery roads, defective Steering (our. etc. In the great majority of cases these things happen because thecarwasgoingtooiast. 1tasrwiftirmovintrcarstrikesa ddiet in the road. the wrench given to the steeringswheel may twin it out of the driver's grasp. These things rarely happen to caution: drivers. E PAGE rouh INDISPENSABLE TO BUSINESS 1lttteqliiiaeaimtmttltextfaifrr -Irbr FRANK B.
