The Other Night CA man phoned to THE TIMES, and he wanted to know where he could buy five gallons of a certain kind of transmission oil advertised extensively in the magazines. We Could Not Tell Him! C'Well," he said, "I guess I'll have to stick to V' naming another brand of transmission oil, "But I believe this oil' is good stuff, but where in hell can I get it?" The Point Is This: CHere is a national commodity. It is sold everywhere hereabouts. It is advertised in all the magazines, and there are people who own cars who don't buy a magazine a month. Yet the people who have it for sale: the shopkeepers won't advertise it. CHow is the man who wants it to know where to purchase it? CJAnd it's the same way with a hundred1 other lines of magazine advertising. TME TIMES
