Your Speech to the
Wool Club
Suppose you arc asked to make an address to the
Tide-Water Association or to the Annual Banquet of
the Lapidary Employers' Board.
It is a matter of great moment; you write and re
write your remarks and rehearse all the details. ' It
may even entail a new dress coat and the finishing
touches of a professional coach.
And yet at most, you will actually talk to no more
than two thousand people directly and perhaps three
times that number through reprints in the trade press.
Are you equally careful of your speech to millions
in the advertising columns?
Do you employ the best brains without stint to
prepare your messages?
These messages of yours do not go to hundreds at
a banquet-table; they go to millions in the homes, and
when your chance comes to speak to a whole, nation,
if it be only for two minutes, you ought to have the
best speech-maker in the nation as your mentor.
Vhen you advertise nationally, employ experts to pre
pare your speech yourmessage youradvertisement.
Publishers arc in a position to appreciate the best
work of the leading agencies.
Adrrrtiiing simcr in flic Ilitlierick publications
is for sale by uc-tcihtcd advertisiny agencies.
