If Advertising is Good for Other*
Itls Good For
YOU
A small merchant gets the idea occa-
sionally that advertising is alright for his
competitor but “it is impractical for me.”
This is not, however the esue. Because
the big business is building and holding good
will in a big way, the small business man
should be building and holding good will in
-
he already has gained. 4

If newspaper advertising is good for
the other fellow it is good for you, too. Good
will is created by newspaper advertising
and other intelligent methods. ~r
