SAY :
“I SAW
IT IN THE
HERALD”
NO AEROPLANES
TO BE SENT HERE
Secretary E. S. Johnson, of the
Chamber of Commerce is in receipt of
a communication from the war de
partment of the United States gov
ernment thanking Augusta for the in
vitation to locate the aeronautical ex
perimental station in Augusta.
The war department announces that
The Want Ad
A Remarkable Agency In Modern Affairs.
(Newspapsrdom.)
The want-ad page of the daily newspaper is a creation of
modern times. Nothing at all similar to or suggestive of it in
tale or history or print of any kind appeared prior to the publi
cation of the American daily newspaper.
The Des Moines Tribune of recent date contained some in
teresting facts and wise observations concerning this light of po
tential agency in modern affairs, the want ad:
“James Gordon Bennett, the elder, invented the want ad,
says The Tribune. “In the old days It was generally used to lo
cate lost people or articles, to secure help or positions.
“The want ad has grown with the years as much as any
part of newspapering. Today it covers a wide field.
"The latest patron of the want-ad page is the United States.
The government has found that the most effective way to re
cruit the Navy Department is to use the want ad. It is an
nounced from Washington:
•* ‘The only method of securing applicants which the service
finds more effective than the colored posters is the newspaper
want ads.’
“It is interesting to watch the development of a method of
doing business. From the little personals James Gordon Bennett
devised has come a new general market place. Everything under
the sun is traded and sold in the want pages. The newspaper
that has the want-ad supremacy is a veritable trading station for
the state.
“Moreover, the want page is a most interesting page to read.
There is a great deal of human interest in the countless bargains
offered. There is some pathos, some pure fun and some deviltry.
Human nature is seen in many guises. The intelligent reader
never misses tne want ads.”
IT
WILL PAY
YOU
it will be impossible to locate the sta
tion here and that it will be located
in San Antonio, Texas, at Fort Sam
Houston where thero is a large army
post and it Is thought by the govern
ment that the men can be better
trained. This closes the matter as
far as Augusta is concerned.
