Such enterprises are not so
numerous nowadays as they :<
were before the majority of
people became educated as to

This is a Want Ad Town
And there are a lot of important
things that cannot, nowadays,
be accomplished at all without
the help of the want ads! -:- -:
For example, your chances to sell, or to lease,
pro,'eIrty at the right price, to the right people, are
multiplied by a hundred %rough an adequate cam
paign of classified advertising. • If the matter is left
to an agent, or broker, he must ndve~tite your prop
osition aggresively---for the simple reason that 99
out of a hundred people who buy or rent property
first read and consider and investigate the ads. The
habit is one of simple prudence, of business Peal.
with them. The unadvertised rolerty never comes
to their notice at all!
So it is in the tasks of finding 6fficient help---jf
securing boarders or tenants for furnished rooms--of
finding desirable positions. In these tasks and quests
the want ad . are the natural service-givers. They
introduce people who have business to transact with
bach other. Elvery hour of every day such people.
Who might never meet otherwise, are brought to
gether, with mutual profit!
Truly, this is a want ad tows! Are you a want
advertiser?
