WRITTEN BY WILLIAM C. FREEMAN. THE PURPOSE OF AD VERTISING is to enter into an agreement between the adver tiser and the public on a basis that will be mutually agreeable and profitable. If advertising is actuated by any other purpose, it will fall short of accomplishment. It is obvious that the advertiser wants to sell his merchandise; it should be obvious to him that he must sell it RIGHT if he is to get CONTINUED PATRON AGE from the public. All of us know of advertising successes that had their founda tion in fraud and continued fraudulent throughout their whole careers, but THEY DID NOT LAST, did they? The agreement entered into by the advertiser and the public must be AS BINDING as any legal document that's soundly draw n. It should be a COMPACT between the two that means that each is to give a SQUARE DEAL to the other. There won't be any trouble about the public always giving a square deal if the advertiser will give it a square deal.

The INCREASING FAITH in advertising is being brought about because the majority of advertisers a big majority, too live up to their agreements. The good merchants should unite with good newspapers in driving out the frauds in every community. ;:.&
