'-'-ififfiKlE The "hard tlmaß" are over, generally speaking. They are not over for those people who are content to have them continue. With tho advent of Fall activities In business will come to each merchant, to each man who Is conducting a business, the oppor luulty to say a long good-bye to "bard times,” or to cling to them a little longer. It Is to be. largely, a test of courage -the making of this choice. A test of advertising courage- mainly, The stronger business men will choose good times as a mat ter of aourse—aud will proceed to make the choice effective by a campaign of real udverllHlng There will bo better, bigger, more ef fectlve advertising done this Fall than ever before. The afraid merchant will wonder "where the money Is coming from to pay the IiIIIh." He will. In some cases, decide that he must not "take the risk ’’ That will be HIH DECISION FOR "HARD TIMM" In preference to "good times, ’’ so far as he, personally, Is concerned. Prosperity Is now a personal question. Yours Is a per sonal question with you. This Is both true and Important. Use THE HERALD For Results In Augusta.
