Things We Have Always
Known
The recent business condition
has brought to the forefront of
thought many fundamental con
siderations that have alawys been
known but have been damned with
faint praise.
important thing it was. And wc
began to inquire where it came
from in the first place, and how it
might be restored.
Human nature in the mass is
very much like huhian nature in
the individual, One of its domi
nant characteristics has been sum
med up in the observation, “You
never miss the water till the well
runs dry." We never appreciate
fundamental things until -wc have-
occasion to do without them. 3,
This observation has a special
application to the Demand of tho
public for the products of Indus
try. While the demand 'was at
high tide and everybody was busy '
trying to supply that Demand at a
profit no one, seemingly, gave a
thought to where the Demand
came from, how long it slight last,
or what wopld happen if it should
fail. We merely assumed the per
manent existence of tiie Demand,
just as we assume.the presence of
water, air, and fire.
We always knew : everybody
knew—that Desire for things made
a Demand for them in the market.
That people desired things we ac
cepted as an elemental fact. But
when we discovered that Desire
fluctuated we began to appreciate
that Desire, as we know it, is a
thing created by the art of man.
It is a highly specialized form of
an elemental need—just as* a Louis
XYI chair is made out of a tree.
But a^day came when Demand
began to subside, and in many in
dustries it came almost to a full
stop. And then we missed it, and
realized, as never before, what an
This discovery led to another
equally important discovery that
the means of refining and special
izing that Desire was Advertising.
The gigantic work that has been
accomplished by modern advertis
ing now stands out in bold relief.
It has been the means by which
the refinements of civilization
have been made known and made
desirable, and this desire has been
made into Demand. It is a simple
fact that a million profitable
forms of industria 1 activity owe
their very existence to, the fact
that Advertising upheld the stand
ards of living which in turn pro
vided the demand for their pro
ducts.

You Have A Real Interest
In This Big' Investment >
^■VHE telephone organization in Georgia has entered upon a
tILbig task in which the public has more than a casual interest.
This is to be a year of construction,and expansion in an effort
to care for the accumulated demand for service and provide for
the needs of the future.
During the five year period, including the year 1923, our plans
require an expenditure of $12,724,000 in Georgia. Practically
all of this is new money which must be secured from investors.
There is no difference in interest between the public and our
stockholders. If wo serve our stockholders wisely and efficiently,
r/e shall render the largest benefit to the public.
We must give the best and broadest sendee possible. We must
provide a service which will not only keep pace with the growth of
the State, but also with the constantly increasing use of the tele
phone.
We must have rates low enough to. enable every persqn ,yrho
ought to have a telephone to have one and at the same time we must
earn enough to attract capital to take care of this growth. (
This is what your telephone organization is tpying to dq. : ,, iMI ,
But our success depends upon the measure of the good will of
the community we can get and hold.
There is no mystery about the telephone business; there is noth
ing peculiar about telephone people. Telephone workers are your
neighbors and friends, no different from other people with whom
you come in daily contact.
We want you to know us better and to be familiar with evefjr
feature of our business. j |
Ask us about the things that confuse you; visit our central of
fices and see what we are doing to serve you.
