■EMOCRAT WANT ADS GET RESUjJS 9 They Overlooked the I 9 Diamonds I I THERE is a modern flippancy to the | effect that, “What you don’t know J won’t hurt you.” It is also a fallacy. | For instance: | The farmers of Kimberley were a i disgusted, disheartened lot. They | said the soil was too rocky to earn | them a living. Some of them left. | Others died in poverty. J And all the time their children | were playing with diamonds. But the farmers didn’t know. They thought the priceless gems were pebbles. 9 Don’t be like those Kimberley farmers. Know! Don’t seek opportunity in some distant place and overlook the diamonds that are daily within your grasp. Know! Advertising is a mine of opportunity. It tells of values you wouldn’t know about if it were not there to I guide you. The secret of economical buying is information. The man or woman who is best informed is the one who buys to best advantage. Read the advertisements. Know!
