ABOUT ADVERTISING
Advertising is a legitimate part of
a newspaper’s stock in trade and
something to be paid for like any
1 other commodity. Some persons in
every community need education on
this subject. It often happens that
people will request a "notice” of ;
their entertainment out of which they ;
propose to make money, provided ■
they can get the notice without pay- '
ing for it. The chances are that the ;
persons asking such favors cf a •
newspaper have been to some other ,
printing office to get their circulars J
and their tickets printed, not for noth ■
ing, however. They can understand .
that the advertising which the circu- J
lars and such afford is to be paid •
for, but they do not fully comprehend •
why a newspaper should not notice J
and benefit their speculation with ;
out charging for It. These remark:: <
are preliminary to the statement of J
a business principle which prevails ■
in all regulated newspaper offices, and -
which is based on principals of equi
ty. It is this: Whatever a news ;
paper publishes that is calculated to ■
put money In the coffers of an Indi- ,
vidual or to further the interest of J
his business In any way the news- <
paper is entitled to pay for its ,
service. I
