ADVERTISING SPACE wl
Few advertising men know that ad- ^

ason that advertising was ever crc- a >
ed "was because wise and shrewd
tsiness men learned that they could
ly white space in publications at a
inimum cost, and because of the 8a
essage they wouldl put into that ^
ace they could make a profit on the
