WINNETKA TALK February 27, 1926 Howard Neutrodyne The Value of a Good Name The ancients had it that "A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches." But in this modern commercial age that formula has been improved to the extent that a good name and great riches--at least greater pros- perity--often go hand in hand. The firm that builds a good name for its product through a long record of dependable service, and faithful adherence to an ideal is soon given the full confidence of the public, its products be- come easier for dealers to sell, and distribution becomes nation-wide. The Howard Radio Company considers this public confidence and recognition as its most valuable asset. As a direct result of it, the com- pany has, from a small beginning, greatly pros- pered and grown. Naturally then, we endorse the policies that have built this good name. A Howard costs more than an ordinary radio and is worth more.
