in office for his second term.
J. Norwood Peterson received one
of the handsomest votes ever polled

The average man looks upon ad-
vertising as a means of "blowing
your own horn." It Is that and
more, too. it is a means of letting
•he people know of a bargain vou
have, it informs them of the fact
that you have esomething to sell
out of the ordinary and is a means
of letting them know you have some-
thing new, It takes advertising to
win and th&t is why the real live
wire uses advertising. This is a
day and age that advertising as well
as anything else, has a commercial
value and people of all classes seek
to buy it.
