STILL. ADVERTISING
We have written before of the im-
nomic pattern on our lives. This has
becn the popular way of business
men to contact the public and make
it aware of their industry and man-
ufacture. The bill for advertising in
our nation’s newspapers and maga-
zines has been one to stagger. When
war gave cerizin reductions in goods
there was an idea that perhaps na-
tional advertising would be curtail-
ced to a great extent. There is a
change of wording generally that
the readers in general have noticed.
Besides being a means of instructing
the buyer of merchandise the ad-
vertiser now becomes of great value
in the deferse efiort through the
pushing of bond selling, of recruit-
ing more men and women for our
armed forces. There are the public-
spirited ads that deal with salvage
drives and promoting them. Notice
the ones written to instill added pa-
trietism and zppreciation by stress-
ing the hardships and valor of our
men over seas. And along with this
type or advertising comes the sell-
ing of goods, keeping up the morale
of the people by offering them what
is at hand and asking them to sub-
mit with grace to reductions in mer-
chandise. Manufacturers are keep-
ing their place in the business rost-
er of trade.

LABOR DAY
Times change but you can always
depend on finding Labor Day the
first Monday in September. It has
been used, plus Sunday, as a good
time to take a holiday trip. It has
stood in many young minds as the
day which precedes the opening of
school. It finds us this year without
the means of making the holiday
trip and in many localities it does
riot bring about the opening of some
