SOCIETY D. A. R. Receives Museum Articles The regular meeting of Mother Colony chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution was held at the Pioneer House on North West street Friday afternoon with Mrs. Albert Karlen hostess, assisted by Miss Vera Clark and Mrs. Clark who substituted for Miss Yetta V. Alden who was unable to attend. The chapter was greatly pleased with the results of the Pageant open house day since there were 21 registered visitors. The exhibit was enriched by three additional articles one of which was a baby buggy in which the grandson of Mr. Bittner, one of the city's pioneers, was cradled. Alfred Bittner was born June 14, 1890, and this buggy was so carefully cared for that the material on the umbrella still is the original satin and bobinet lace. It was presented to the chapter by Mrs. Clara Bittner Martin. Annual reports were given and the officers for the coming year were installed by Mrs. Nellie D. Seitz. All standing committees for the new year were then appointed by the regent. Committees to serve at the annual Pioneers' Picnic to be held in June—date to be announced later—were also appointed.

I Can't Afford To Advertise, Business Isn't Good Enough-- Our Advertising Man has heard this frequently and, now asks us permission to answer this: MR. MERCHANT: You can't afford to advertise. Probably you don't realize it, but if you did advertise consistently, business would be better. Oh, I know, your case is different. So was the case of John Wanamaker, Henry Ford, Marshall Field, R. H. Macy and hundreds of others — 40 years ago. Look around you, Mr. Merchant. Who are the leaders in business and industry MR. MERCHANT: You can't afford to advertise. Probably you don't realize it, but if you did advertise consistently, business would be better. Oh, I know, your case is different. So was the case of John Wanamaker, Henry Ford, Marshall Field, R. H. Macy and hundreds of others — 40 years ago. Look around you, Mr. Merchant. Who are the leaders in business and industry today? Name the one that isn't and hasn't been a consistent advertiser for years. A few years ago several products were well known to thousands of Americans. Among them were Cream of Wheat, Force, Sapolio, Pears Soap, Sweet Caporal, Helmar, Egyptian Deities Cigarettes, Cole, Chalmers, Pope, Hartford, Mitchell automobiles and many others. When did you last hear of any of them? Not for years. The reason is simple — someone was short sighted to believe it was economical to curtail or stop advertising. The result — they soon dropped out of sight, lost business and today are either struggling along in comparative obscurity or have been forced out altogether by the more up-to-date concern that advertisises and keeps on advertising. Name me the biggest businesses today and you'll name the biggest advertisers — automobiles, radios, cigarettes, manufacturers, bus lines, airways. "Yes, my business is different," you say. Oh, Yeah!
