THE KEY TO
FOR CONSUMERS
FOR ADVERTISERS
As a purchaser of goods, materials,
and services you are chiefly interest-
ed in getting the most and the best
that your money can buy. It is also to
your advantage to be able to buy with
confidence in the Quality of your pur-
chase and with the expenditure of a
minimum amount of time.
As the responsible head or agent of a
busisess your chief interest is the sell-
ing of your goods, materials and
services. Your problem, is to find
the most economical means whereby
your products can be introduced to an
ever widening circle of buyers.

THE BRADY STANDARD IS YOUR
KEY FOR ACCOMPLISHING
THESE ECONOMIES IN
TIME AND MONEY
THE STANDARD PROVIDES A
MARKET THAT IS BOTH
COMPLETE AND
ECONOMICAL
Its advertisements provide you with
the means whereby you can plan sen-
sibly and spend wisely. They provide
you with the necessary information
as to the market price of the things
you need and tell you When, Where
and How they may be purchased to
result in the greatest economy in time
as well as money.
It provides you with the means for
presenting your product to an inter-
ested audience who have formed the
valuable habit of reading the ads be-
fore they buy.
The advertisements act equally as an
assurance that the things you buy will
measure up to your expectations and
that your purchases will be backed
by service. The advertisements are
your key to Economy—and failure to
use them is something you simply can
not afford.
....The Standard recognizes a definite
responsibility to readers and adver-
tisers and has for years given com-
prehensive service to both. This policy
has resulted in mutual confidence.....
The readers know from experience
that advertisements in The Standard
read and acted upon, result in their
own profit and enjoyment.....and ad-
verticers know from experience that
their advertisements when placed in
The Standard have the confidence of
its readers.
