dising has carried the merchant along ' results, if the message reached the
without brains or effort.
From now on the merchant must
merchandise if he is to conduct a suc-
cessful business. Advertising is one
of .the largest contributing factors in
successful merchandising. The news-
paper is acknowledged to be the best
medium for the message of the re-
tailer. It is bought and read by his
prospective customers. It reaches
them more quickly and oftener than
other mediums, and thus provides a
means of quick changes in prices,
plans and policies.
But what is the function of the
newspaper as an advertising me-
dium ? It is to carry your message
to the customer. Don’t blame the
paper if you fail to get results, pro-
vided the paper reached the people
and was read by them. Do you blame
the post office if you write a letter
to New York ordering two hundred
emits of clothes when you fail to get
people for whom it was intended. It
may be the fault of your service in
the store, your prices may be out of
line, your quality may be poor or you
may not have the punch in your copy.
There may be a dozen reasons why
that ad did not pull. But the news-
paper advertising is not futile just
because your ads don’t get results.
Wake up! The only man who can
make a success of your store is your-
self. Get on your toes! Find the
trouble; right the wrongs, use your
head and the future will be the best
you have ever known.
These are times that try men’s
souls. The strong man will win.
Brains will succeed. Let’s go!

Verkhoyansk, Siberia, holds the
world’s blue ribbon for frigid winter
weather, compared with any other
place where temperatures are regu-
larly measured.
Vladimer Zezinov, in “The Road to
Oblivion,” quoted by Charles Fitz-
hugh Talman in his Science-Service
feature, “Why the Weather?” says of
some effects of the severe cold:
“You take a glass of water and
dash it high into the air, the liquid
i will come down in the form of ring-
ing crystals of ice. Spittle will
freeze before reaching the ground.
All livestock seek deep shelter dur-
ing the winter. Partridges dig them-
selves far into the snow and stay
there. There have been cases of
their falling like stones while in
flight, freezing to dbath in the air.
Marmots hide in underground holes
where they hibernate, assuming the
shape of a little claylike ball. The
ice becomes so hard the ax rebounds
from it. Live wood becomes petri-
fied, and when one chops it sparks
fly as if from flint.”
