multiplied by 1,750 copies <weekly.

That's mighty big chunk of space for a cost of only 75c. And
that price includes delivery to the reader's home. Just imag-
ine reaching all those families by postcard. It would amount
to $70.00 just for postage. But the Progress does it for a
mere 75c per Insertion.

So you can see that a little one-inch ad is really a pretty BIG
inch when it's advertising space in the Progress. And Hie
figures show that it's the most effective and economical
way possible to let people hi fh|i area know that yon have
wares and services that they could use.
