Finns which intend to stay in business, that is, firms
which deal directly with the public, must advertise. By
the same token, it is a sign -that they mean to stay in
business when they d,o advertise. For they are offering,'
through advertisements, the valdes in their stores.
•«
You, the customer, will decide whether or not they
ARE values. If they are not, it is ”ju8t too bad” for the
firm that claimed they were. DonH you see, therefore,
that no merchant can afford to misrepresent himself or
r
his goods in print? Advjertising merely magnifies a*mis
representation—brings the fatal day nearer.
Naturally, then, you can trust the advertisements in
your'home paper.. You can believe that the stores carry
ing these advertisements want your trade, and are will
ing to earn it—with honesti values and fair treatment.
Read the advertisements. Patronize the advertisers. It
is to your selfish interest to do so.
