A STATEMENT OF ADVERTISING PRINCIPLES

I. Good Advertising ~~ aims to inform the con- sumer and help him to buy more intelligently.

2. Good Advertising »tells the truth, avoiding misstatement of facts as well as possible deception through implication or omission. It makes no claims which cannot be met in full and without further qualification. It uses only testimonials of competent witnesses.

3. Good Advertising ~ conforms to the gen- erally accepted standards of good taste. It seeks public acceptance on the basis of the merits of the product or service advertised rather than by the disparagement of competing goods. It tries to avoid practices that are offensive or annoying.

4. Good Advertising ~ recognizes both its eco- nomic responsibility to help reduce distribution costs and its social responsibility in serving the public interest.

Do Not Lend Your CITY DIRECTORY

IT COSTS YOU MONEY-Every Time it Is Loaned

The practice of lending your City Directory, in a great measure, is responsible for the increasing cost of Directory Service.

The reason is :- There is a definite cost involved in the making of the DIRECTORY of Your City. THIS COST MUST BE ABSORBED BY THE SUBSCRIBERS-BE THEY ONE-OR BE THEY 1000.

If there were but ONE SUBSCRIBER to the CITY DIRECTORY- THE ONE SUBSCRIBER would of necessity have to absorb THE WHOLE COST.

If there were 100 SUBSCRIBERS-each one would have to absorb 1/100th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.

If there were 1000 SUBSCRIBERS-each one would have to absorb 1/1000th PART OF THE WHOLE COST.

From which it is obvious that the GREATER the number of subscribers -the LESSER the cost to each.

And It is also obvious that the LESSER the number of subscribers-the GREATER the cost to each.

Every time you loan your City Directory the LESS NECESSITY THERE IS FOR THE BORROWER TO SUBSCRIBE FOR THE SERVICE.

MORE BORROWERS result in FEWER SUBSCRIBERS which means IN- CREASED COST.

1876

Our Company Seal carries the words "dependable insurance." The more than 300 people who are John C. Paige & Company strive constantly to live up to all that those words imply.

The insurance knowledge, experience and ability of these professional people work for clients large and small ... corporate and personal ... from coast to coast. The scope of this service is as broad as insurance itself. From every type of life and employee benefit protection through the entire range of general insurance, this organization is the professional force in the client's corner.

Some of the qualifications of a truly professional insurance brokerage organization are obvious-some are subtle, and hard to find. We're encouraged by the fact that many thousands of clients believe they have found both the obvious and subtle qualifications, in high degree, at John C. Paige & Company.

If you are one of these clients, we treasure your confidence and extend our thanks. If you are not, we hope you'll want to know us better. Cordially, we invite your inquiries.
