NINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, MAY, 17, 1924 \1 Band Takes Second Honors at State Contest JO Interest Only to Our Advertisers | | i | | | In business competition the rewards usually go to the man who advertises adequately. If he has good grounds for believing that he has worthy merchan- dise or service, he does not hesitate to say so in a way that is bound to attract attention. He knows that a full page attracts more than four times the atten- tion attracted by a quarter page. But if goods and service do not warrant his using a full page he uses less space. Almost always he knows what he wants to say and has a pretty fair idea of how to say it. He is not a hit-or-miss ad- vertiser, but employs intelligent meth- ods. The rewards are less likely to come to the shiftless sort than to the thoughtful advertiser.
