SHINER GAZETTE—SHINER, TEXAS
Town Without
Bread Two Days
The town was breadless
Christmas Day and Sunday. I
regret that the Shiner Bakery
could not supply the calls. I
appreciate the patronage given
me and if more of the citizens
would give me support I could
always supply the demand and
serve the town.
I am in a position to keep my
present customers supplied but
cannot afford to work up 10 or
12 sacks of flour subject to un-
certain calls. I am here to serve
the trade and would appreciate
more of the bread business from
the local people.
CLARENCE TRICHEL
A CORRECTION
In our Christmas issue we
overlooked an errpr in the
Greeting Ad of the General Gas
Appliance Co. of Yoakum. The
signature reads Gas Appliance
Co., whereas it should have
read General Gas Appliance Co.
We are sorry this error occured.
The General Gas Appliance Co.
is on May Street just west of
the Grand Theater in Yoakum.

How Not To
Win Friends
Brownfield (Texas) Terry
County Herald: And in a pass-
ing shot at the late political
campaign, there may have been
a reason that so many country
weekly newspapers in the
north, middle west, and Pacific
states turned from Dewey to
Truman. Early last summer a
national advertising company,
who represented the National
Republican Campaign Commit-
tee, so they say, sent a request
to all the smaller weeklies like
the Herald, requesting adver-
tising rates, and they intimated
that considerable advertising
would come to the papers.
Of course all the weeklies
hastened to comply and waited
for the mazuka to roll in. The
big let-down came in October,
when proofs of some large mats
were received. The papers were
to get out and get enough local
sponsors to pay for the ads. To
further' rub it in, the mats
would cost the papers just $28.
The paid advertising went to
the magazines, large dailies, but
principally to radio. Governor
Dewey had few friends among
the country weeklies at the
windup of the campaign. If
nothing had ever been said a-
bout advertising, he would have
had more friends. This inci-
dence was one of the biggest
boners the GOP organization
permitted to be made.
The Gazette was “favored”
with the above requests, sent its
advertising rate card. Later
large mats were received, if
used, the cost as stated above
was $28 for use of same. In ad-
dition we were to solicit sig-
natures to pay for each adver-
tisement. Did we “kow tow.”
The $28 worth of mats found
an early grave in this news-
paper’s waste paper basket.
