WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 24, 1 966 Shows Advertising Need Dramatic documentation of the retailer's need for maximum frequency of news- paper advertising is provided in the latest of four research projects financed by the News print Information Committee. It is one of the most compre- hensive retail studies ever made, More than 23,000 inter- views and reinterviews were conducted by the independent Opinion Research Corpora- tion, retained by the Commit- tee. The Bureau of Advertis- ing, American Newspaper Publishers Association, co- operated. Patterns were charted on the buying plans, shopping, and actual purchases of the interviewees from one week to the next. 1 Here are some findings of the research project: The retail market for any commodity is in constant turnover from week to week. America’s tremendous vol- ume of retail sales is generat- ed from a surprisingly small number of real prospects on any given day. Two kinds of prospects ap- pear. Those with “top-of-the- mind” readiness to buy and a far greater number with “back-of-the-mind” readiness | to buy which can be “trig! gered” by a sudden need or by advertising, A retailers advertising plays a key role in getting prospects to convert intended store visits to actual shopping action. In converting planned visits to particular stores into actual visits, the stores which increased their newspaper ad linage from one week to the next scored 12 percent more success than those with the same or less linage. High frequency of advertis- ing exposure is valuable not so much to build impact by piling message on message but to maximize the probabil- ity that the story is being told to those prospects close to a buying decision on each of the days of exposure. Women who do not buy, for whatever reason, that which is uppermost in their minds one week, are likely to buy something else next week — often in a complete- ly different merchandise cate- gory. Most decisions to buy are made in the week of pur- chase and not the week be- fore. Most women planning pur- chases have a particular store in mind, more so with low- ticket items than with major items. FASHIONS CHANGE But The Women -- Never Plastic dresses and ‘Kooky’ hairdos notwithstanding, the woman of today is very much like her sister who lived in this hemisphere centuries be- fore Columbus discovered America. At least that’s what phy- sicians concluded who flocked to see an exhibit of pre-Co- lumbian sculpture shown at the recent meeting here of the American College of Ob- stetricians and Gynecologists. The clay figures, some of them 4000 years old, tell a vivid story of a people who flourished in Central and South America centuries be- fore the Aztects, Incas, or Mayans. : According to Dr. Abner I. Weisman, owner of the fabul- ous collection, who has stud- ied thousands of the figures, | in many ways women haven't changed much in 40 centuries | and adorned with attractive jewelry,” the doctor noted. Fashions in figures chang- ed, then as now. “At times it was fashionable to be big busted,” Dr. Weisman observ- ed. “And at other times big derrieres were all the rage.” Any woman struggling with the fluctuations of current fashions will be comforted by the thought that styles do. eventually, change. ‘ THE BULLETIN, MOUNT JOY, Two Will Receive Millersville Degrees Degrees of Bachelor of Science in Education will be granted to {wo Mount Joy men in Commencement Ex- ercises Friday morning, Aug. 26, at 10 a.m. in Lyte Audi- torium by Millersville State college.

PAGE SEVEN Timely Tips for Women Add Hours To Your Flowers by Doris W. Thomas The instant a flower is removed from the plant, it's liv- ing on “borrowed time.” The following suggestions will help keep flowers fresh, longer. Use a sharp knife or sharp shears to cut flower stems, Cut either on a slant or straight across. Flowers keep just as well if cut either way. Wash the soap and water before each ter moves easier and in the stem use. This kills bacteria which could clog the water-conduct- ing tubes of flowers and cause wilting. Remove any foliage will be below water. merged foliage hasten cut-flower fading. Put flower in hot water — that "about bath temperature.

After the flowers are in hot water, wrap a piece of paper around them. This reduces water loss. In about 2 hours, the flowers are ready for ar- ranging and will continue to take up water. If a flower wilts, remove it and repeat the treatment. a * * Fall Fashion Colors Are Spicy, Bright The textile artist has spat- tered bright, spicy colors on his fall ’66 color palette. Colors are no longer sea- sonal. Many of spring’s sunny shades and hues are emphas- ized. This fall, color is as im- portant in fashions as fabrie design or texture. Picture in your mind's eye a blazing fire, and you will recognize the fall reds. Flame is an orange-red ideal for ju- nior fashions. Berry, brick, and embers are other warm shades. Watch for vintage grape. It is an exciting com- plement to pastels as well as to bright colors.
