ADVERTISE YOUR GOOD THINGS
Many a limping business is kept from healthful development by the morbid aversion of one of a firm's members to publicity -- perhaps he is honestly so conscious of the excellency of his wares that he expects the world to search them out. But the busy world hasn't time. If you have a good thing to sell proclaim it from the housetops. The world wants good things, but it can't discover them in hiding places. Bring them into the market place.
ADVERTISING WILL DO IT!
