b o Rvertining. ot . 7 .(Tampa, Fla., Tribune) = . The average buyer would do well to look with care at the offerings of the merchant who does not advertise. No matter what claims that merchant may make concerning the facilities at his command for cutting profit to a point where the patron is the beneficiary it is evident that he has not utilized the one biggest factor available in accomplishing that purpose. Unless he advertises consistently it is reasonable to assume that the merchant is not “‘turning over” his stock as many times a year as he should. And fewer “turn overs” of merchandise mean higher prices for the con!sumer. He cannot escape them. ' . Unless the merchant is taking advantage of every element to derive the fullest returns from his investment in floor space, heat, light, sales forces and service departments, he is compelled to boost the figures on his price tags in order to “come out” successfully on his net profits. S The persuasive appeal of intelligent, truthfull advertising persistently applied, is the only thing that really can bring the volume of sales to a peak that will permit the reduction of profit on individual items. When you buy advertised goods you have the satisfacfion of knowing that the dealer who sells them does so with a confident belief in their merit.
For County Unit Roads.
Roads built under the county munit highway law must be paid for by a special tax levy, and their cost of construction is not to be congidered as a part of a county's indebfedness’ according to an opinion given b y Attorney General Lesh{ Lo the state tax board. In his opinion, the attorney general held that the -law enacted in 1919 and under which many roads have been built throughout the state created a new taxing unit.
